Babylon - Instrumental

I came into this world high as a bird

From second hand cocaine powder

I know it sounds absurd

I never tooted but it's in my veins

While the rest of the country bungies off bridges without no snap back

And bitches, they say they need that

To shake they fannies in the ass club

They go the other route

Turn each other out

Burn each other out

Where a bonified nigga like me

Can't even get no back rub these days

Ain't that bleak on they part

But let me hold it down

'Cause they shut you down

When you speak from your heart

Now that's hard

While we ranting and raving 'bout gats

Nigga, they made them gats

They got some shit that'll blow out our backs

From where they stay at

Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun

Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone

So I'm hoping (hoping), wishin' (wishing), praying

To keep my faith in you (keep my faith in you), in you

(Yo, yo, yo)

I'm fascinated by the way your nipples peak at me through your blouse

Freaky me, freaky you

Can't help but be aroused

'Scuse me Lord less for thinking

But that's the way we was brought up

Sneakin' to watch playboy at night

We all must be caught up in worldly ways

Chemistry between boys and girls

Is a lot like when we went to the woods

And laid with the squirrels

Durin' P.E., we'd be

Exploring each others privates

Hunchin' with all our clothes on

Until we felt excited then

Oh now it's on from here on out

Put your hands in the atmosphere

If you know what I'm talkin' about

Now if two hearts done walk on out

And I see you on the next song

They call it horny

Because it's devilish

Now see we dead wrong (ooh)

Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun (oh)

Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone

So I'm hopin', wishing, praying (praying)

To keep my faith in you (to keep my faith in you), in you (oh)

People don't know the stress I'm dealing with day to day (day)

Speakin' about the feelings I'm possessing for Renee

Moping around and wondering where she stay

Saw her last that she lay

Give it another day I say

But the Lord he taketh away

Now give it back Lord

'Cause that's like backboards without the rims

Me and my auntie was tight like southwest

Before the pinks moved in

Like the niggas that owned the liquor stores

Crack cocaine, pimps and whores

Living up on this earth

Before a nigga like daddy was born

But they making a scene

That my music and crime are team

But I'm speaking the truth not dreams (dreams)

So what in the fuck they mean

My lyrics ain't clean

Ooh (yeah), I fear the battle's just begun (just begun)

Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone (so I keep)

So I'm hopig, (and) wishing, (and) praying (praying)

To keep my faith in you (my faith in you), in you

Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun (just begun)

Ooh (oh woah), though we're here

Someday we will be gone (oh yeah, woo-hoo)

So I'm hoping, wishing, praying

To keep my faith in you (my faith in you), in you (ooh)

Ooh, I fear the battle's just begun

Ooh, though we're here someday we will be gone (I keep hoping)

So I'm hoping, (wishing), wishing, praying

To keep my faith in you

My faith in you

My faith in you

My faith in you

(Keep my faith) my faith in you

My faith in you

My faith in you

My faith
