lyrics

((Chorus) What do it do/when I come thru/you'da thought it was church/whole hood scream halleluh!/(x4))

So what do it do/when i come thru/tryin to give a young black boy/a good image to look to/Hail Mary, please forgive my sins/I blame it on the skin I'm in/this flesh, it just want the rims/but I just keep slangin these hymns/drive around my city/it's pretty/one day, Imma own my town like Biggie/right now I'm just a kiddie/don't let it fool you, I ain't rap shitty/80 miles, haulin down I-5/Chillin like a villain in a slick ride/moonroof in the whip bring a dark light/stay fresh, need a good girl by my side/hero to my city, but a villain to the game/my name bring heat, so I put Jesus round my chain/all they put up on the radio is lames/so I keep an aux((Ox)oxygen) cord ready just in case/cause spur of the moment/freestyle I own it/don't tell me when to/cause I'll do it when I want it/cause I own/when I zone/at 2 in the morn/whole house asleep/lil nigga writin poems/so what do you see in me/that makes you believe/that I can be great/cause I'm playin for keeps/as in keepin hip-hop alive/makin sure lyricism thrives/cause we don't want all of the illiterate idiots cloggin up the mics/like/(X)/I'm underground like the railroad/contracts, I tear those/quick to dodge a case and jump the suit, call me jail clothes/fuck reign nigga, it's time for me to hail/it's over the game that I tower like cell/I'm a service to the community, like I avoided jail/well, I dell/cause I compute the game so well/I delve, deeper in to the bag of tricks/playstation nigga, imma 90s kid so you don't want it on the sticks/old soul on the beat like a Sega Genesis/you Bowser and I'm Mario, comin for my princess/got the song saving, so it peaks interest/account of music real, so when I aim a rhyme at rappers you could call it a checklist/keep my hair lined up hella filthy, like a set list/no amount of money will change my lyrical mind, so check this/I'm done teachin, class dismissed/you pushin the coco, but it's SwissMiss/holes in your game like Swiss/cheesin/picture success and its lookin like me man/I'm causin chaos, consider me a heathen/won't quit the game till I quit breathin/you a quick fix like a water pill/Its tough to swallow, but I know she will/different kinds of fans, call it mass appeal/goddam, I'm so ill/pray to God that it's you I don't kill/lyrics are like atom bombs the aftermath ya can't shield/(X)

about

J-DASH Seattle, Washington

I hail from Seattle, Washington. I am 1/2 of the Tongue Triggas crew. My focuses: music and football. If I'm not in the weight room working out, I'm usually in the studio recording and writing. I'm not the kind of rapper that wants the money to stack to the roof, I'm a rapper that wants to make music for the people listen to. Buy the album tho. I need cash for the studio. #brokenigga lol. Peace!! ... more
