Gutter Rainbows (Explicit) - Talib Kweli[00:00:00]
Talib Kweli[00:00:03]
Get wit it get wit it[00:00:06]
Here we go here we go come on come on[00:00:08]
Here we go here we go come on come on[00:00:10]
Blacksmith[00:00:14]
It's the movement[00:00:15]
Keep it moving keep it moving[00:00:17]
Here we go here we go come on come on[00:00:18]
Here we go here we go come on come on[00:00:20]
Blacksmith[00:00:25]
Pay attention[00:00:26]
Gutter rainbows[00:00:27]
Watch me flip it like the Blacksmith logo[00:00:29]
I shine a light through the darkness[00:00:31]
When the night is black as Yaphet Kotto[00:00:33]
All these rappers looking mad in photos[00:00:34]
Saddest player braggadocio quality[00:00:37]
Make up for what a lack a promo[00:00:37]
You say you blast a fo-fo you don't shoot[00:00:40]
More like you shot me an email[00:00:42]
But forgot to attach the vocals[00:00:43]
Call em a bastard like their dad a no show[00:00:45]
I'm too fast for slow pokes running[00:00:47]
On the track with Yohji Yamamoto's[00:00:49]
This ain't fashion rap[00:00:50]
I'm bringing the passion back[00:00:51]
Find me where the trouble at[00:00:53]
That's my natural habitat[00:00:54]
I take it with me in the booth[00:00:56]
To delivery or respect to the dead[00:00:58]
We only owe the truth[00:01:00]
So if somebody feeling disrespected[00:01:01]
Even when his face is smiling[00:01:02]
His heart rate escalate to violence[00:01:04]
Look at them tremble juggling drugs[00:01:06]
Using abusing beautiful struggling[00:01:08]
They were usually bubbling[00:01:09]
It's the voice of the voiceless hope for the hopeless[00:01:11]
Spit game way to real they don't promote it[00:01:14]
Cause the way I approach it from another angle[00:01:16]
I stay in the streets and notice the gutter rainbows[00:01:19]
It ain't no pot o' gold it's where the products sold[00:01:22]
It's where we lock and load and[00:01:24]
Cop that rock then roll[00:01:26]
So turn it up loud and turn it up now[00:01:27]
Turn it up loud turn it up now[00:01:30]
Welcome to my hood[00:01:32]
Where the rainbows is in the gutter[00:01:33]
The pain that you will discover[00:01:35]
Is making the angels shutter[00:01:36]
There's sex in the city[00:01:37]
But we never claimed to love her[00:01:38]
I know you heard of us we're more murderous[00:01:40]
Than Cain famous brother[00:01:41]
Living with death[00:01:43]
Smoking blunts with the Grim Reaper[00:01:43]
Snitch niggas known to[00:01:45]
Blow the whistle like a gym teacher[00:01:47]
This gum flapper swear he a gun clapper[00:01:48]
Nah sum'n backwards[00:01:50]
He really a dumb rapper[00:01:52]
The trap on the corner with the oil spilling[00:01:53]
Mixed with the dirt and the water collected[00:01:55]
In the gutter til the colors brilliant[00:01:57]
I paint pictures so legendary[00:01:59]
I been doing this your history is[00:02:00]
As short as the month of February[00:02:02]
In a leap year what do we fear[00:02:04]
Dead bodies lying[00:02:06]
On the ground nothing to see here[00:02:08]
Be clear don't ever[00:02:09]
Cross me like police lines[00:02:10]
Cause libertarians will be not invited to tea time[00:02:12]
It's the voice of the voiceless hope for the hopeless[00:02:15]
Spit game way to real they don't promote it[00:02:17]
Cause the way I approach it from another angle[00:02:19]
I stay in the streets and notice the gutter rainbows[00:02:22]
It ain't no pot o' gold it's where the products sold[00:02:25]
It's where we lock and load and[00:02:28]
And cop that rock then roll[00:02:29]
So turn it up loud and turn it up now[00:02:31]
Turn it up loud turn it up now[00:02:33]
Saw that whip around a building[00:02:35]
To form a corner tornado[00:02:37]
Finding nature in the city[00:02:37]
We cover our feet in gators[00:02:39]
Bugatti's to bodegas[00:02:41]
They selling rotten tomatoes[00:02:42]
Stacking chips and I don't mean[00:02:42]
Potato there go another one[00:02:45]
Graduated from quarter waters[00:02:46]
And Butter Crunch[00:02:48]
Tuxedo nice with a gun tucked[00:02:49]
In his cummerbund[00:02:50]
He get it from his mama[00:02:52]
He ain't nothing but his mother's son[00:02:53]
She used to get it popping[00:02:55]
Like bubblegum[00:02:56]
Peddling poison was often[00:02:56]
Better employment[00:02:58]
The ghetto destroying any sense[00:02:58]
Of self she was enjoying[00:03:00]
Survival of the fittest by any means necessary[00:03:01]
Got us calling drug dealers revolutionaries[00:03:05]
You say he kill his people[00:03:07]
He say I feed my family[00:03:09]
And you ain't kickin in[00:03:10]
You'll never understand me[00:03:11]
You just stand in my way[00:03:13]
Now you an obstacle[00:03:14]
And obstacles end up in the hospital[00:03:15]
It's the voice of the voiceless hope for the hopeless[00:03:17]
Spit game way to real they don't promote it[00:03:20]
Cause the way I approach it from another angle[00:03:23]
I stay in the streets and notice the gutter rainbows[00:03:25]
It ain't no pot o' gold it's where the products sold[00:03:28]
It's where we lock and load and[00:03:31]
And cop that rock then roll[00:03:32]
So turn it up loud and turn it up now[00:03:34]
Turn it up loud turn it up now[00:03:36]
