Aquemini

Lyrics

Yeah (yeah)
 ♪
 Uh-huh, even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die
 Horoscopes often lie and sometimes "Y"
 Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever
 But until they close the curtain (God knows), it's him and I, Aquemini
 ♪
 Yeah
 Now is the time to get on, like Spike Lee said, "Get on the bus"
 Go get your work and keep your beeper chirping is a must
 Is you on the that dust or cornstarch familiar with that smack man
 The music is like that green stuff provided to you by sack man
 Pacman how in the fuck you think we gon' do that man?
 Riding around Old National on 18's without no gat man
 I'm strapped man and already to bust on any nigga like that man
 Me and my nigga we roll together like Batman and Robin
 We prayed together through hard times
 And swung hard when it was fittin'
 But now we tappin' the breaks
 From all of them, corners that we be bendin'
 Volkswagen and Bonnevilles, Chevrolets and Coupe de Villes
 If you ain't got no rims, nigga
 Don't go get wood grain steering wheel
 For real you can gon' chill out and still build
 Let your paper stack instead of going into overkill
 Pay ya fuckin' beeper bill bitch
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 Even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die
 Horoscopes often lie and sometimes "Y"
 Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever
 But until they close the curtain, it's him and I, Aquemini
 ♪
 Twice upon a time, there was a boy who died
 And lived happily ever after but that's another chapter live
 From home of the brave with dirty dollars
 And beauty parlors, and baby bottles and bowling ball impalas
 And street scholars that majoring in culinary arts
 You know how to work bread, cheese, and dough
 From scratch but see the catch is you can get caught
 Know what ya selling, what ya bought so cut that big talk
 Let's walk to the bridge now meet me halfway
 Now you may see some children dead off in the pathway
 It's them poor babies walkin' slowly to the candy lady
 It's lookin' bad need some hope like the words maybe if or probably
 More than a hobby when my turntables get wobbly they don't fall
 I'm sorry y'all I often drift I'm talkin' gift
 So when it comes you never look the horse inside its grill
 Of course, you know I feel like a bearer of bad news
 Don't want to be it but it's needed so what have you
 Now question is every nigga with dreads for the cause?
 Is every nigga with golds for the fall? No
 So don't get caught in appearance
 Its OutKast Aquemini another black experience
 ♪
 Okay
 Even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die
 Horoscopes often lie and sometimes "Y"
 Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever
 But until they close the curtain, it's him and I, Aquemini
 The name is Big Boi Daddy fat sax the nigga that like them Cadillacs
 I stay down with these streets
 'Cause these streets is where my folks at
 Better know that some say we pro-black, boy we professional
 We missed a lot of church so the music is our confessional
 Get off the testicles and the nut sacks
 You bust a rhyme we must bust back
 Get get back for reals niggas that's out here trying to spit facts
 You hear dat you can't come near dat maybe you need quit (quit)
 'Cause Aquemini is Aquarius and Gemini
 Runnin' shit like this (yeah, yeah, yeah)
 My mind warps and bends floats the wind count to ten
 Meet the twin Andre Ben welcome to the lion's den
 Original skin many men comprehend
 I extend myself so you go out and tell a friend
 Sin all depends on what you believing in and
 Faith is what you make it, that's the hardest shit since MC Ren
 Alien can blend right on in with yo kin
 Look again 'cause I swear I spot one every now and then
 It's happening again wish I could tell you when
 Andre this is Andre y'all just gon' have to make amends
 Even the sun goes down, heroes eventually die
 Horoscopes often lie and sometimes "Y"
 Nothing is for sure, nothing is for certain, nothing lasts forever
 But until they close the curtain, it's him and I, Aquemini
 ♪
 Finally, God
 We have done it
 We've done it (yes master, yes master)
 Hahaha, dear God, we've done it
 Uh-oh
 
 Yeah (yeah)
