Tread Lightly Lyrics by Armand Hammer

Rome

2017

[Verse 1: billy woods]
Once he came to, first question:
"What'cha gon' do with the time you got?"
Confused, they reiterated like
"Gotta remember, it's not a lot, it's not a lot"
I replied "Just watch" while she administered the eye drops
Promptly redid Illmatic bar for bar, She's Gotta Have It shot for shot
Motherfuckers waste a lot of time, akh
Words stolen from neighbors in bodegas when I cop my paper
Now you know where I got my flavor
Like I said, it's a lot of time wasted, it's a lot
Son, we skimmed through your music, found no reason not to approve it
It was all relatively toothless, you're just a guy
Ruthless how they did Ruth first, I let the package sit overnight
Letter opener on the desk, how he live is anybody guess
Poe's "Telltale Heart," pigs wait patiently for you negroes to confess
No rush, the wind through your shed'll rattle your sheet metal
Poor the meat pimps peddle
Don't front like you stupid, you on they level
Pressed pesto while the mortar and pestle
Said "Presto" when they found that .38 special

[Verse 2: E L U C I D]
The wi-fi name is Assata Is Safe Here
The pass code transposed and notated between kick and the snare
For whosoever believe, feeling beastie, Paul Revere
It's all gone square, sand shifting, a brief history
Take cover, tread light, I ain't got no type, love is love, y'all
Knowing better don't mean you doing better, we watched the sky fall
Lit by the moon blush, dip soon come
Blue movies on the tablet like I'm non-respectably ratchet
Rappers politically black halfwit, pack spliff, vegetate, half pipe twilight
Tomorrow's just another yesterday, several ways to skin a coon
Magnolia bloom with the blood pool, Lord, who can I run to?
Live feed from slum view, whole crew kick laces knotted
E NY powerviolence, what up, family?
Then it shot and she stopped giving bop, adjusted her top
My alarm clock is black children playing in the park, every nigga's a star
Crowdfunded constellation burned a keloid scar
Oh, he go hard, the young gods bark
The universe is a card sharp, my new studio's a smart car
Had a dream I gifted Nardwuar some Carhartt to spark a heart most toxic
Hawk, spit, blast my way out, gut full of rock shrimp
With much vigor to the rhythm of body bag zipper swipes
Never paid the asking price, double down on paradise
