Little Brother, L.E.G.A.C.Y - Flash and Flare lyrics

You, got to have FLASH, and FLARE

Hehe, gotta have flash and flare
Flamboyant on y'all
(This is a Little Brother exclusive)
9th, WonderlEGACYuh, Phonte

These rappers babble on how they
Time'll come one day
That shit'll never come like
Mail on a sunday you lackin somethin
Must be the flash or somethin
We love tainted
Pure LEGACY and Tay'll get you
Frustrated, groups break up like B2K
Don't care how you spit nigga
Got +Flair+ like Rick nigga
Critics thought they sank me but
I hold my float
They tried to hang me but I'm dope-on-a-rope
Doom style, get on stage and boo the crowd
From my throne patient
Hold my own like masturbation
I, let off, look on but LEG's off
Reachin for figures, the Feidian chips
I'm diarrhea nigga
You ain't ready for this shit
Stop you dead in your tracks
What's f'in with dat?
I wish a muh'fucker WOULD
Shit I'm that fuckin good
Come stocked with raps but
You gotta have flash

You, got to have FLASH, and FLAIR

Uh, give it to me now fucked up, brah
(imitaing Dave Chappelle playing
Rick James) They
Never shoulda gave us niggas MONEY!
What about yo' raps Phonte, and, Big Pooh
9th Wonder and LEGAC-eey!

Uh, excuse me playa
No I don't mean to bother ya
But just in case the beat is
Hittin too hard for you
Just know, Phonte is doin his job, cause I
Stay on the scene like cinematographers
This is not a game
This a whole 'nother conference i done
Greeted and meet and thoughts is sharper now
Niggas got questions like Barbara Walters
While the so-called playas pro'lly won't
Even talk to us
Phonte is rap for real, ya Massengill
Just thespians in the Screen Actors Guild
I really wanna re lax and chill
But y'all fuckers gon' make
Me relapse for real
And take it back to '98 on you niggas
When I was straight disablin niggas
Iron Mics, 1st place, Cats-Cradling niggas
I ain't got time to play witchu niggas
For now that's all I gotta say to you niggas
This is history in the making and
Y'all's ain't been made yet
This is the single the
Radio ain't played yet
Tay is not a safe bet
Raleigh niggas tried to carry me
But, I'm already at my Apex, holla!

You, got to have FLASH, and FLAIR

Younahmsayin? Niggas tryna get on the mic
With all that goddamn
Rappity rappity rappin-and
Rappin and all that shit
With no flash, no emotion, no passion
No conviciton
Nigga, you just a talking head!
And meanwhile, I'm holla'n at'cha girl
And she talkin head yanahmsayin, c'mon!

O-o-o oh, oooh, ooh, rahh, ahh!
