"Rainbow Bap" lyrics

Do you see it?

He was a lost boy with rhythm, heart broke, SYRE has risen
Look at the stars, it's all written, just hold the applause
I'm just gettin' started with it
It's not hot enough in the kitchen, they sayin' it's it
I guess I'm the one thinkin' different, I'm slick with it
A lotta chains, man, I'm Slick Rick and I don't pivot
I'm like Pippen hittin' six swishes in six seconds
Autonomous whippin' while whole colonies are poverty-stricken
Young niggas ain't stoppin' and drippin', the way I dribble the rock
They gotta watch how the rocks are glistenin'
Blood diamonds, ancestors fightin' with colonists
Know your history, inherit the confidence
It's apparent and obvious, I'm the young KRS in your providence
And this air that we're breathin' is consciousness
Every lyric is prominent (I feel it)

Just another cold mornin' in Paris, I know
I wish I was takin' you home
But I ain't takin' the long train no more (Ah, ah)
You don't care about me and it's tough, girl
And I'm tryna feel your love
But I'm not fucked up enough
Man, what a pity New York City lights glow
How many times I gotta tell you niggas that I'm home?

Girl, I ain't finna lie, you gorgeous
We should go to Malibu, let's go to Florence
Rainbow on your aura
Girl, you soakin' up the sun like a tourist (Okay)
Another plane, she an explorer
I'm drinkin' and I'm tellin' her things I'm not sure of
Cancun to Agoura, couldn't find more of a wavy baby
We endin' our month in Bora Bora

All this time and you're still on my mind, yeah, you know
(Yeah)

Girl, I ain't tryna leave, I'll be right back (Why?)
Left the crib without the top, need a nightcap (Yeah)
I'm just lookin' at the stars for my path
I'm serious and get with you, the lyrics all facts
They pop off, you tell 'em, "Relax"
I drop off the bars and dash let the sunset in the back (Wow)
And the boy's light as a feather in fact
At least we can be together now forever
But if we could fly through a pink sky, we would never go back

Just another cold mornin' in Paris, I know
I wish I was takin' you home
But I ain't takin' the long train no more (Too far)
You don't care about me and it's tough, girl
And I'm tryna feel your love
But I'm not fucked up enough
Man, what a pity New York City lights glow (Why?)
How many times I gotta tell you niggas that I'm home?

We were seventeen years old, at Cartier, we had to cop
Floatin' in my room, it made feel like I'm an astronaut (Astronaut)
Niggas mad at how I acrobat the vocabular
And they whack, these fractions ain't addin' up and I'm back
With the math raps, like the boy invented the abacus
Less of a rapper, more of a strategist
Gotta know that money can't buy happiness
You gotta have a long arm, still in the hills throwing up charcoals
Shit ain't changed, nigga, I'm still the saddest kid up in the game
Think about you, girl, I do that every day
Thoughts I was havin', blew that shit away
When I call you, I just don't know what to say

Just another cold mornin' in Paris, I know
I wish I was takin' you home
But I ain't takin' the long train no more (Too far)
You don't care about me and it's tough, girl
And I'm tryna feel your love
But I'm not fucked up enough
Man, what a pity New York City lights glow
How many times I gotta tell you niggas that I'm home?

Higher the view
I wish you could see how I feel
Took three shots, don't drink, drunk
Quick one-on-one, thought I'd never last
Know you're mad, baby do the math
I've been waitin' for it, since I seen you last
Still embarrassed you ain't do me right
But I couldn't care, baby
Girl, I know you smile
You've been away for a while
Oh girl, the way she just forgot how to die all alone
In the dark, we both don't want me to cry girl I know
Fuck this, gonna burn six checks
Get a new necklace, I ain't missin' no texts
Girl, you such a sweet wave, you're my new secret

Baby girl, you're lying
My pillow's seen me cry all night
Make peace with you, I try
I never got to say goodbye
I'm somewhere in the sky
Singing twisted lullabies
