We be blazin'

So amazin'

Everybody get down

We be blazin'

So amazin'

Everybody get down

New year, new record, time to do bigger shit

Caught a plane to Cali linked with my nigga Quik

I figure with the combination we bomb the nation

But stay calm and patient

As the world get hyped from hearin' our musical conversation

This a beautiful situation right here

Given birth on the track 'cuz the cypher stay pregnant with ideas

And we rockin' it, rock, rock, rockin' it

Tell the hater players put a sock in it

Proper shit, that you got to get, 'cuz we properly document

How cats look more like dicks than the Washington monument

Phallicaly tryin' to challenge me, but who you racin' wit'

It's amazin' the lyrical lingerie I be lacin' shit, we be blazin' it

Put it in the air with the chronic

My lyrics like drugs got you hooked on my phonics

From Brooklyn to Compton the lounge of Soundbombing

Still rockin' over "Balance and Options," now

If you got a spliff then put it in the air

If you want a rift then put it in the air

If you shakin' yo' ass, put it in the air

If you makin' it last, put it in the air

If you leave the crib strapped then put it in the air

Take ya hand of your gat and put it in the air

Snook your bud in the club, put it in the air

Got nuttin' but love, put it in the air

They say my rhymes is too heavy, I come thicker than the fog

You get it when I retire and battle my catalogue

Writin' rhymes in my Captain's log, BlackStar date

MC's fake like Egyptian Gods in Stargate

Lovin' the hate, bubble all types of weight in they rap

I draw blood like mosquitoes y'all annoy like gnats

Pop that around the wrong cat get laid flat

Concrete adjust to the contours in your back

Quik where you at?

Yo I'm in the back room makin' a run

Ain't even touched her 'n makin' her cum

Now you can catch me out in' Portland wit Stoudamire

Everybody doin' shows but I'm the hottest flier

Bitches say honest, I swear to God

So how come then believin' them is so damn hard

Could you really blame a nigga if I fucked a skate

You didn't even pay that's why you flunked the date

All you did was eat salad, talk shit about niggas and drink wine

And your answer kept changin' 'cuz bitch you keep lyin'

Talkin' 'bout 'he make me sick

All he do is disrespect me keep callin' me bitch

And he only wanna fuck me when he all full of dope

What the fuck you think I'm here for not to love you I hope

All I'm 'bout to do is listen for a minute

While I get my drink in n'duce you to my dog Kweli 'n go up in it

If you got a spliff then put it in the air

If you want a rift then put it in the air

If you shakin' yo' ass, put it in the air

If you makin' it last, put it in the air

If you leave the crib strapped then put it in the air

Take ya hand of your gat and put it in the air

Snook your bud in the club, put it in the air

Got nuttin' but love, put it in the air

C'mon

We be blazin'

So amazin'

Everybody get down

We be blazin'

So amazin'

Everybody get down

Now let me tell you how I am

I'm mild-mannered at day but superhero at night

I got the special invite to make your spot look right

No ice, no rain, not bottles of champagne 'n

Half these motherfuckers can't pronounce my name

I'm so cool while you hyper in' the coffee shop

Hype niggas make girls be like 'get off me stop'

Real niggas like thirst so of course we rock

'Cuz the game unauthordox, off top

You got cold feet like I pulled off your socks

Always goin' down town pullin' all the stops

Your breath smellin' like fish from straight off the docks

Dats how you lost your spot, you too hype

If you got a spliff then put it in the air

If you want a rift then put it in the air

If you shakin' yo' ass, put it in the air

If you makin' it last, put it in the air

If you leave the crib strapped then put it in the air

Take ya hand of your gat and put it in the air

Snook your bud in the club, put it in the air

Got nuttin' but love, put it in the air

Yea, we be blazin'

So amazin'

Everybody get down
