i was raised to the sound of the 70's
earth
wind and fire
sounded so heavenly
ohio players and curtis mayfield
aretha franklin's picture on a playbill
al green in a tight suit
all white
minnie riperton high notes
all night
mom's even had a box full of 45's
put the needle down
yea that sounds sorta live
sound like the kind of groove i could rap over
got drunk off the beat then i was back sober
bring that part back
yea i'mma murder that
donny hat on the track with roberta flack
hide records
in the bag
sneak them out before she notice that they gone
gotta think
i don't know
should i rap of my mom's favorite song?
better hope i don't scratch it
or that's it
i'mma get my ass kicked
that's a classic
can't explain that i was just borrowing it
moms on a rampage lookin' for her parliament
and donny hathaway feelin like a cast'away
hiding in grandmom's room more than half the day
if i told her that her parliament at brian crib
and nobody home now
i'mma be a crying kid
but it's seeming like i'm safe for the time being
my uncle gettin all the blame far as i'm seeing
i just gotta lay low like a snake belly
it's a sticky situation like grape jelly
i'm on the titanic
or some other boat
got my mother and her brother at each others throat
you better hope mommy never find out
cause if she does then that's your ass
you know damn well if you touch one
and you get caught that'll be your ass
ninteen-seventy something
and the year is. ninteen-seventy something
the final act
brian's at the door
with a black and red nap sack
came to bring the vinyl back
i put it back before anybody notices
he said close call" i said "yea i know this is"
