Uh big-city living baby, fast car,
fast night, walking body, looking
for a chance at the fast life,
the fast lane, but get swallowed
in the city lights.
Follow the lights, blind but no sight
Gripping the wheel
steady turning with the Earth,
burning, they looking for a chance
to make it to the big journey,
for something different cause their
life feel empty.
I tried to bring to bring them
truth and it's answer but they just
dissed-me.
dissed me, dissed me,
in the classe they dismissed me.
Said they'll pass, but they
failed so quickly.
Wheels spinning faster,
going out of control,
I'm trying to slow them
down and get them on
the right road, but
[Hook]
Fast life living, they
call up and won't quit it.
trying to tell them something
but they just won't listen.
Trying to change up their
destination, they might miss it.
Going the wrong direction,
and that's why I'm out on mission.
Big-city living crazy fast-lane racing,
going the wrong way
Hey! Rock-A-Bye baby!
this is how the sleepers say
Rock-A-Bye Baby!
This thing might kill ya say
Rock-A-Bye Baby!
Ah well,
Give it to the people that wanna know
if these people wanna go.
Everybody here just want to blow
Everybody here just want a show, show,
but I won't give it to em, naw.
I'm trying to give
them something different
then say aw, now.
You ain't hip, you so dumb,
you should quit. Go on and run,
do it quick, you'll be done money clip oh!
Paper game,
double duch,
jumping in,
jumping out,
paper chasing up
early for their
favorite paper route.
I just tell them boys
I ain't tripping,
get your bread up
devil cause this
may be over head.
Get your head up
hold it up higher,
get it higher till you see it,
and this is worth letting go
of money till you reach it, but
[Hook]
Ah, to all my people
all believers,
man, consider this
your caution tape,
Yellow light
slow your roll,
back and forth,
oscillate.
This thing is much deeper,
man it's the silent sleeper,
and it'll creep up on ya
take you down the path
and leave ya.
And that's a dark road,
you don't want to travel that
you need to stand strong,
here's where the battles at.
well some will and
they treat it like it's nothing
like living for the king
ain't something,
it's amazing.
Fast life living, they
call up and won't quit it.
trying to tell them something
but they just won't listen.
Trying to change up their
destination, they might miss it.
Going the wrong direction,
and that's why I'm out on mission.
