Kareem Campbell + The Ghetto Bird Lyrics

Fuck rap, this a political statement

They should place me in the office wit the scandals and bitches

Might flip a legislature for the niggas that's bout it

Nerdy niggas readin' manga wit they mental on tiddies (JOSUKE!)

Snub nosed steel spittin' shells up in the bity

We dodge them shots wit finesse, idolizin' our brothers

And older cousins that's active

Screamin' out Suu Whoop

They dip off tinted whippin' a Civic or Plymouth

Twistin' metal like fingers that we cast in the air

Bitches thick as some yams, know I got a sweet tooth (Hey baby!)

Quite the murderous clown if I step wit a TEC

Kuz I'm just a bookworm who get no props in the hood

Educatin' these niggas who out here bangin' for nothin

Representation is tainted, they wanna rap and be ignant (Stupid ass nigga)

And know nothin bout the set like where it start or it finish

Take back to what it was and reestablish the movement (Black Power, nigga)

But I'm speakin' out the side of my neck affront the elders

Standin' in the Fire Temple on Adams, no need for shelter

Flamed up like Link in his tunic, dodgin' the heat

If a nigga disrespect, he get beat just like the street

Bro, chill you better quit that shit and keep watch

You a skater, keep your head on a swivel and know the odds

Don't fake the funk out here fucked and might get popped

Tryna impress us by bein something you know not, lil nigga

Ay, it's only proper that I get paid

If a nigga slide then we catchin' fades, yea

It's only proper that I get laid

But I don't treat a bitch like bae, nah

It's only proper that I get paid

If a nigga slide then we catchin' fades

It's only proper that I get laid

Fuck a bitch but don't treat her like bae, nah

I circle back to the block

Just know I've skated thru cities, trekked to Inglewood wit my game console in tow

Fuck dough, a nigga tryna make bread in this bitch

Travel the bity, unprotected wit the faith of the streets

Thinkin bout you niggas flexin' the connections you keep

Kuz if I'm chasin' dollars then you know I'm really down bad

Givin' up my griptape then I'm goin out sad

Sacrifice this hollow life for the allure of red flags

But ain't nothin wrong wit the bangin'

Just know the shit been different

OG DooDirty flockin' and Pookie out here snitchin

Thievery rampant on blocks where they governin' unjust

Aimin' they barrels at brothers and then sayin' "**** us"

The liberation start from within, you can't even be yourself when you pushin' the pen

Spewin' lies over trap snares to impress grown men

Who don't have they shit together on they 40th kid

But fuck it, I digress you may have the floor

I'm enticed by this ramp, tryna get airborne

Become a ghetto bird soarin' over Slauson and more

I see Adams, see Vermont, and the Jungles, and Venice

See Bronson and Wilshire before I'm snapped back, nigga

They sayin "Bro, you better dead that shit and keep watch

You a skater, keep your head on a swivel and know the odds

Hide that red flag round here, nigga, don't get us popped

Fake the funk for them YouTube niggas, we on the block

What you expect one time circle the temple hot

Flamed up in the enemy hood, you'd better stop

You gon false claim, nigga, proceed to cop a Glock (Scary ass nigga)

Metronome say your time comin' tick and a tock

Better maneuver and evade, duck and fuckin' dodge

If a OG catch you slippin' and then you might get dropped so tighten up

And stop tryna be something you not, lil nigga"

Ay, it's only proper that I get paid

If a nigga slide then we catchin' fades, yea

It's only proper that I get laid

But I don't treat a bitch like bae, nah

It's only proper that I get paid

If a nigga slide then we catchin' fades

It's only proper that I get laid

Fuck a bitch but don't treat her like bae, nah
