Padded Locks featuring Ghostface Killah

from Pieces of a Man by Mick Jenkins

lyrics

Somebody put me on the leash, I'm bucking wild like the A-K because it came from Kaytra
I point it down so you can't escape it
Even if you duck, duck, goose neck
Your Canada goose wet, balled up to your crewneck
This that blue flame
Put the green to this shit, this that blue dream
Put your schemes to the test in real life, bet you need a vest
Bet you need a vet
Ni***s biting crazy, already seen death by rabies
Ni***s getting lazy, digging holes and pushing daisies
Boonk acting like it's gravy, acting crazy on the internet
Ni***s dirty dancing, no Patrick Swayze
Lover don't get caught on your Savion Glover for these white boys
They out here cancelling plans at the last minute
You deny it and then admit it, that type mad different
But I ain't mad, I'm high as a kite
Trip is supplying the light, ni***s can't buy this advise
Listen, caution would question this shit, ni***s that claim you bitchin'
Get straight to the money whenever your hands start itching
Know that if you ride me, you'll never be Mike or Pippen
And you got to know that ain't me dissin'
Dodging smokescreens, that ain't the piff in the air or, ni***s is smoking different
Could read the same Bible but, ni***s just quote it different
They finna do clean water just like prohibition
I already know the mission, why they keep on missing we grow more efficient

Gotta have it
Please excuse the water bottle, have it
Fingers spazzing
Make a ni**a think this semi automatic
Fuck the dramatics
We get through them locks when they padded
I never had it
Got to get to free, got to have it
Gotta have it
Please excuse the water bottle, have it
Fingers spazzing
Make a ni**a think this semi fully automatic
Fuck the dramatics
We get through them locks when they padded
I never had it
Got to get to free, got to have it

Ay yo, these ni***s mad thirsty for the fame and glory
Yous as basic as a baby daddy on maury
fuck the fake chain blinging, the auto tune singing
i'm a killer bee straight out the hive and im stinging
dirty slang doctor botox your girl's lips up
We soul training em like Don Corneil, get your dick sucked
We fist fucking the money, we runnin down jewelers
We flooded backstage out like ice in the coolers, fuck the rulers
Donald Trump is a piece of shit
I got 36 chambers, hollow tip in the clip
Smoke a dick, no time for the games and dramatics
we blessed every morning with today's mathematics
Put a hole in your cabbage, quick to fuck up your party
Off your whole set ni**a, you can ask Cardi
We used to lose our cracks when we was runnin' from the Narci
Now we watching shark tank, robes up in the Marqis

Gotta have it
Please excuse the water bottle, have it
Fingers spazzing
Make a ni**a think this shit be fully automatic
Fuck the dramatics
We get through them locks when they padded
I never had it
Got to get to free, got to have it
Gotta have it
Please excuse the water bottle, have it
Fingers spazzing
Make a ni**a think this shit be fully automatic
Fuck the dramatics
We get through them locks when they padded
I never had it
Got to get to free, got to have it

about

Mick Jenkins Chicago, Illinois

Mick Jenkins’ writing is rich with hard-won perspective and dotted with impressively specific, naturalistic details. But on a thematic level, it digs deeper than the here and now, the bus stop in front of him, the string of tour dates looming ahead. His music explores things that humans feel on an intuitive level but struggle to fully understand. ... more
