Slaughterhouse, Pharoahe Monch - Salute lyrics

Fix your motherfuckin face nigga!
Look at these fuckin chimpanzees
Bunch of fuckin monkeys

(Mr porter)

I been shot, I been stabbed
I took all that I have to give
And I never ran, never have
Just so all you niggas can live
I never thought there would come a day
When my people would turn me away
And it really tears me apart
'cause I deserve a Purple Heart
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
I, I showed you what a soldier's about


Nigga you should salute me

Typical Joe Budden shit
Ridiculed and lovin it
The hood know I'm the dude that governed it
Paved the way for my sons
Laid down the cement for my semen
Ain't my fault y'all got stuck in it
Lately, it change like the weather
One minute they love me
Then they hate me I'm
Through with shenanigans
I don't care if dudes ain't a fan of him
Can't checkmate a 8-figure nigga with
The moves of a mannequin
Talkin 'bout they wan' go
Somewhere to meet me
Man they just wan' go somewhere to meet me
Easy don't involve cops in it
Got the key to my city
How the FUCK you think you got locked in it?
Bitch!

21 Rugers on the hip of 21 goons
21-gun salutin
Bloody funds is what murder money becomes
21 bodies on all 21 guns
You from the D and you don't fuck with me
You lame the streets and the internet fuck
With me the same
So later for that punk shit
'cause nigga I'll smoke you
That's why they say I stay on that blunt shit
Niggas'll spray you up before they
Wet your lady up
Then shoot the baby bassinet to
Shut your baby up
And I'm in line with the bread
I hold niggas down doin time
In the feds, Pharoahe, talk to 'em

I been shot, I been stabbed
I took all that I have to give
And I never ran, never have
Just so all you niggas can live
I never thought there would come a day
When my people would turn me away
And it really tears me apart
'cause I deserve a Purple Heart
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
I, I showed you what a soldier's about
Nigga you should salute me

Properly greet a general
I'd have to take steps down
To be on a pedestal
I am what the 1-8 after the 7 do
Give it my all but you want more
You lil' beggar you! Mean it's terrible
I showed hip-hop anyone's edible
Never give somethin that's not respectable
Never spit somethin that's not incredible
Never sold my soul for numbers
Left of the decimal
I done fucked up movements
Like cerebral palsy you don't know me
Don't pause me - I'll throw lead at you
Mean I earned every stripe and you know it
When you see me put yo' hand on
Yo' head and push it forward

Before shots land on your head
And push it forward eastside Long Beach
I'm only pushin four words
I organize a street massacre
You haters know I broke bread with
At least half of ya
Out of town, hundred pound weed trafficker
Got niggas rockin Long Beach
Fitteds in East Africa
I been stabbed, I been shot, a imperfect part
Like my Grape Street niggas I
Got a Purple Heart i kill your bitch at the
Beauty salon on Windham
They take a nap on your lawn
On a Louis Vuitton pillow
Waitin for you to run out and say somethin
Come out your face frontin
Dumb out and spray somethin
Bloaw! So move now

I been shot, I been stabbed
I took all that I have to give
And I never ran, never have
Just so all you niggas can live
I never thought there would come a day
When my people would turn me away
And it really tears me apart
'cause I deserve a Purple Heart
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
Nigga you should salute me
I, I showed you what a soldier's about
Nigga you should salute me
