[PRhyme, Phonte, MF DOOM - Highs and Lows lyrics]

Hey there, music world
You've been keepin' 'em waitin'
(These are my highs and lows)
You've been deprivin' 'em of the real
Been on a vacation (No matter where we go)
If you ask me, all around the world
I think they sleepin'
But we ain't sang you a lullaby
(I got no love in my
Heart for the other side) b-b-bye, bye, bye

The streets said I'm either supposed to
Be in jail or dead
My uncle told me before he died
To watch for these whores
Before I wake up in the bed in the morn'
Next to a horse head, prolly why I'm war-bred
Prolly why my self-portrait
Should be a Porsche with bald tires
And poor tread, to symbolize my upward swim
Uh! Nigga, we ain't go to no NBA
All we know's to sweep rappers up to K
Lookin' like
I'm tryna rake leaves on a windy day
So leave me out of your kind of war
Be hysterics when's the last time you seen
A carnivore eat a carrot?
When's the last rhyme you heard that had
You trying to find your words?

Such absurd verbs do not disturb blurbs
Slid to the curb
He's not the first herb written on a mirror
Blurred rap guys is buyin' by
Like flies on a turd
Preemo and Royce surprise
'em, eye-to-eye 'em, they scurred
Slur intended, demented, got some nerve
Got no patience and a little perturbed
You heard?
Guessin' wit' more questions than answers
Why they started rhymin'? Should've
Just remained dancers
It's better odds than countin'
Cards at the Luxor
Carbon fiber, black mask
Askin' what the fuck tux for
Deluxe war, to whom it may concern
It's too late to burn DOOM you wait your turn

Hey there, music world
You've been keepin' 'em waitin'
(These are my highs and lows)
You've been deprivin' 'em of the real
Been on a vacation (No matter where we go)
If you ask me, all around the world
I think they sleepin'
But we ain't sang you a lullaby
(I got no love in my
Heart for the other side) b-b-bye, bye, bye

I remember bein' broke
Playin' Little Brother out my mother whip
Now I got some shit look like the mothership
Now my little brother got my other whip
Havin' to return it back to me
Is exactly what he think the
Meanin' of struggle is
People compliment my grind
They wonder how I stay this clean
Comin' from Michigan, you don't seem to age
That's cause I don't whine about
The state of things
Hatin' on others'll get you old quick
So I just salute and let my flow switch
Takin' my shit to the highest of levels
Combinin' everythin' that I have
Developed since '99
My style just seems to get
Better and better and better
Hoppin' out the custom Corvette
The same hustle, ready for whatever
Not a mushroom, portobella
I'm a truth-storyteller, uh, uh, right on
Hey there, music world
You've been keepin' 'em waitin'
(These are my highs and lows)
You've been deprivin' 'em of the real
Been on a vacation (No matter where we go)
If you ask me, all around the world
I think they sleepin'
But we ain't sang you a lullaby
(I got no love in my
Heart for the other side) b-b-bye, bye, bye

Grab the microphone like he
Smack a rapper iPhone
PRhyme time, time's up, dial tone, smile's on
Show your teeth, known by the wild prone
All getters, pile on, gone since child grown
On the count, check
You'll catch a pound next
Stop clownin' around for rec'
No disrespect 'tended said it, I meant it
Before it's invented, get it, did it
Spent it
Keep the change, he needs that receipt
Thanks
MCs need franks regardless of street rank
Their feet stank
We never leave the beat blank

Masterpiece theatre
We the no limit think tank
Love to hit the club with my
Nigga cause when we drank
He think he a pimp but he can't see that
Them three skanks look nothing
Like Selita Ebanks
Wake up in the morning like, "Gee, thanks"
Tigallo the polymath, Raleigh boy
Rap game Rolly Forbes
Never with the same sound
Crazy like James Brown on Polydor
Sniffin' cocaine off of a bodyboard
Quick to 86 your top five if he not in yours
Why so serious? What y'all melancholy for?
Against us you'll never score at all, nope
Never headline a tour at all
Y'all Flintstone chewables fuckin'
With toradols now who you wanna call?
Hey there, music world
You've been keepin' 'em waitin'
(These are my highs and lows)
You've been deprivin' 'em of the real
Been on a vacation (No matter where we go)
If you ask me, all around the world
I think they sleepin'
But we ain't sang you a lullaby
(I got no love in my
Heart for the other side) b-b-bye, bye, bye

I rap, I rap, I rap circles around 'em
I rap, I, I, I rap, rap circles around 'em
I rap, rap, rap, rap circles around 'em
This the difference between y'all
Niggas and real rap i rap circles around 'em
PRhyme!
