Back From The Crypt Lyrics - Artist : Kai Straw
[Kai Straw:]
Life doesn't owe you shit Black, white, or Mexican Asian or East Indian Russian or Czech So quit fussin' and get up You'll fall once, and get up Scabs on scabs make heels out of the softer skin It's making you marvelous every time you're fallin' That's your soul gettin' stronger When you make it through some darkness Like a wandering toddler lost his way Or a cub without a momma trynna hide from the rain We're all fighting to stay alive with not much to guide us Except a couple rules from the Quran to the Bible We're blinder than the soldier in a smoldering fog of emotion Or an old woman struck with glaucoma So hold your head up, and don't you ever let up Keep your chin high above the water Even when the cinder blocks are tied around your body Holding you down, you cannot drown You cannot give up now, I said you've gotta get up You've gotta erupt You've gotta be the one in the arena declaring your freedom Not the critic feeding on the people who fall In the land of the vultures, you can't be a corpse You've gotta be the king of this jungle, not the poacher You can't be afraid to sing, you've gotta pull 'em off your throat You can't be everything, but you can be what you're supposed to To take your destiny, you can't do what you're told You've gotta be, strong Go ahead and walk with a limp Drag your heel like you're back from the crypt I said you're, strong Like a villain out to feed on bones You're a monster, baby Like a ghoul to a house Like a ghost in the movies, arrivin' unannounced Say I'm back, dammit, like some voodoo, hell And I'm coming for your neck, you better hide [ZayVsThem:] Who do you believe in? I heard your call, baby girl, I know you're grieving What's the reason? Girl, you can't be no older than 23 And you acting like it's 2012 again The end of the world I might be the only friend of a girl Who ain't been to Chicago but love to act shy Her booty gettin' bigger, she attracting black guys Try to leave without payin' You gonna leave with black eye From the only man she ever knew, he outside Palms atcha' for the revenue Let me paint a better view Down on them knees again Which way is East again? Allah, or Muhammad, Buddhist or Christian She just gon' pray to whoever will listen When the sun is down, I make that my mission So please, get up off ya' knees You don't see trees hangin' onto dead leaves Baby, you've gotta let 'em go [Kai Straw:] Go ahead and walk with a limp Drag your heel like you're back from the crypt I said you're, strong Like a villain out to feed on bones You're a monster, baby Like a ghoul to a house Like a ghost in the movies, arrivin' unannounced Say I'm back, dammit, like some voodoo, hell And I'm coming for your neck, you better hide Say I'm coming Say the world better hide from me Say I'm coming Say the world better hide from me Say I'm coming Say the world better hide from me Say I'm coming Say the world better hide from me [ZayVsThem:] Alright, sing it with me [Kai Straw:] Go ahead and walk with a limp Drag your heel like you're back from the crypt I said you're, strong Like a villain out to feed on bones You're a monster, baby Like a ghoul to a house Like a ghost in the movies, arrivin' unannounced Say I'm back, dammit, like some voodoo, hell And I'm coming for your neck, you better hide |
