Lakitu (Cactus) Lyrics by Kwame Adu

Smelling Salts

0

[Verse 1]
The sun lookin' down on us
He just tryna tell a story
I mean we all know he's seen it all
So I listen I don't gotta worry
Rosary on my neck
I know the codes
The fair-hearted man sees death
And he won't avoid it
Corner store celebrities leavin' autographs
Tales of an old war from a darker past
Lakitu
Ridin' on a cloud
Livin' on a high
This is World 4-1
Life is Super Mario in '85
Now we gotta count the set of days alive
But I'm walkin' through the desert, I abandoned time
And watch the fallen rise
(The sun lookin' down on us)
(He just tryna tell a story)
[Verse 2]
Cactus, cactus
Lookin' like a bozo
Chokin' in the dust, but it's never too hot for me
Cold winds and desert moons
The desert isn't home for the weak 'cuz the weeks get lost to me
(I ain't even know what fuckin' month it is)
[Verse 3]
Water ain't cheap
It don't make sense
It's speech in our hearts
It's the keys to our vessels?
Broken heart told me
"Think we pickin' up his lessons?"
Main bitch, side bitch
Brown rice and lentils
Paintin' pictures with a pencil, nigga
You can't escape
[Outro]
Lost in the hurricane
Cut the lights off
Keep the mic on
I just blacked out
You don't click with me
I'm not an icon
But I'm jaded
So electric
Existential
Put the pen down
I just walked in
Damn I'm bankrupt
In my PJs
Damn, I'm bankrupt
They won't pay us
But they'll pay for that
When this [K?] go
Gratatata
That's payday
[?]
Everyday, though
I need a halo
Mind your business
