Pras - Avenues lyrics

Oh, no, oh no say, we gonna rock down
Through electric avenue
And then we'll take it higher (higher)
Say, we gonna rock down
Through the brooklyn avenues
And then we'll take it higher (higher)
Oh, no, oh no

Yeah, yo, slick like Rick James when I hit
Superfreak chicks, I don't miss
(Yo I don't miss)
Mix wit yo nose, my flows make you sick
Two chicks for me, none for you like Twix
Play with niggas head like
Clef's guitar picks
Went from bottom pit's to makin hit's and
Hollow tips and shootin lips (right)
Handle our business, make sure it sit's
Ride throught the tunnels
Fuck the guest lists
Light up your block with roman candlesticks
Known to blow shows with pyrotechnics
Rappin bout yo' whips while
You cats in transit's
Buyin shorty gifts with checks from wick
Your record sound like a demo
That was not yet mixed
(shit ain't even mixed yet)
Your whole style's broke and
It should be fixed
Time's runnin out as my Rolex ticks
Don't get caught on the ave
It's too electric

I dedicate this to my peeps
Who roam the streets
God bless they souls, may they rest in peace
There are those who finance and
Those who choose to lease
Whatever suit's you better on the
Terms of your lease
Different strokes for different folks God
I refuse to going back to being broke Lord
He got struck wit lightnin, he got hit hard
Faces 20 to life maximum
His whole life is scarred
The preacher's son and I came
Off the Santa Maria
Ten cases of malt I caught the diarrhea
Load the ReFugees on the aircraft carrier
Some say Dirty Cash, we never heard of ya
(You don't know me? You don't know me?)

(alright, alright)
Watch yo back, watch yo side
Swimmin wit sharks string you like a harp
While they playin Mozart
No credentials, get nowhere like ozlo
Sent back to frisco, at the regal begal
Suave like Rico, on fire like pyro
Frantic like skitzo, rougher than Brillo
He caught the rat like Donnie Brascoe

Out in the streets there is violence
Down in Brooklyn there is violence
Down there in Queens there is violence
And there's a lot of work to be done (Lord)
Down in the ghetto there's violence
Out in LA there is violence
In Miami there is violence
And there's a lot of work to be done (Lord)
Say, we gonna rock down
Through refugee avenue
And then we'll take it higher (higher)
Say, we gonna rock down through haiti avenue
And then we'll take it higher (higher)
(Refugee all stars, yeah, yeah)
