Cripple (feat. Elena Pinderhughes)

Lyrics

Turn the beat up some more
 Ay-yeah-yeah, anchors
 
 Uh, rectangle full of color
 Complicated man sits, dedicated to the rudder
 Under Apollo, over feeling under as a swallow, and yet wallows
 It's said he looks for Yetis in tomorrow
 And do-gooders become regretters for giving garble
 At the art show in Park Slope
 Broken dancers rather flatten cardboards than work at Arco
 Flippers who feat feets riff contortionists hips and grease slippers
 Tweezers release slithers
 From lines with deep splinters, paws for sweet skippers
 Another key-figure's of East River's who eat liver and drink liquor
 And root for Bird due to an unconscious urge to beat niggas
 Who prefer sweet, steep sleep
 And to pour holes with the ease of police triggers
 Sikhs at the hair show, Arabs at the airport
 Caucasians in the projects, niggas anywhere though
 People lovingly exclaim
 People lovingly exclaim
 People lovingly exclaim
 People...
 Beauty is the Largest
 Obstacle to Obsess
 Decorate the Sergeant
 Community Resistance In Progress
 Pull out game strong like the Waco Kid
 But also like a lifeguard, now that don't even make no sense
 But since, if the swimmers ain't got no rings on
 Don't be a fag, let me stab that Yoo-Hoo with my ding-dong
 Fruits of interracials, my banana's bigger than King Kong
 Both ways seem wrong like nobody in China is good at ping-pong
 Seem wrong?
 That's evidence they shouldn't be passing their genes on
 That was racist, but I'ma run with it
 Like every sagging pair of pants has to have a gun in it
 So I undid it, like a Singapore with gum in it
 Does that mean if I let you ride it, I can put my thumbs in it?
 Uhn, nasty, but let the moment pass, only wave if they ask
 And catch me at the scene of the crash, karma
 They hate blood like Blade
 So they hate 'cause like an English teacher grades
 Beauty is the Largest
 Obstacle to Obsess
 Diaspora and Sonnets
 Community Resistance In Progress
 People lovingly exclaim
 People lovingly exclaim
 People lovingly exclaim
 People...
 The city: population control, occupation parole
 Hope the swayed persuades and this conversation cajoles
 Not to be Enron
 Alexander Hamilton to Cassandra's Agamemnon
 The environment is more than just a panda at the wind farm
 Looks cool but it's bull as cool fusers
 And the abuse is fueled of duel-losers
 To make fools of the schools and pool Bueller's
 The crusade to legislate oxygen
 And put it in a box just like Desiree Washington
 Fortune cookie, First Panda accelerated profit
 And hope Santa fill my socks with highly-decorated moccasins
 My, how the roles have reversed
 So now we gotta eat 'em for dessert
 Bop the kids just to free 'em from the curse
 Dress up the thots in lingerie and feed 'em to Levert, uh huh
 Beauty is the Largest
 Organize the Objects
 Diaspora and Sonnets
