Takin a Train Lyrics by Richie Cunning

Late Night Special (Mixtape)

2009

[Chorus/Interlude]
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
[Verse 1]
Yeah, let the ride begin
They vibe to it as soon as Richie applied the pen
The fine tuner got them losing their mind and the music that I'm
Doing make 'em never wanna rhyme again
I'm times ten over drums and loops, make a move, son
I'm stupid dumb off a hundred-proof
And I ain't never been one to shoot
But any rapper that wanna get it can get a 21 gun salute
You ain't got to fuss who it be
If it was hot, it must've been me
How many more spots do I got to crush before
They know enough not to fuck with Rich C?
The first line got 'em sweating, what happens when I
Double the dose their knees shaking off a couple of quotes
Even rappers that got beef saying, "fuck it, it's dope"
So keep playing it like the pause button is broke
I charge nothing, the best things in life are free
Call it a gift, son, ain't nobody nice as me
The flow priceless, I don't speak righteous teachings
Or the meaning of life, I just write to beats, boy
Hop a train from the tip of the park to Civic Centre [?] Market
And that's how I'mma live till I die in a shitty apartment
In the heart of the city of darkness, till then, I'll be...
[Chorus/Interlude]
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a - takin' a - takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
[Verse 2]
Yeah, let the ride continue
Got it running as soon as Cunning applied the pencil
And you can catch it live right in front of your eyes
As long as there's a train stop outside the venue
I tell a punk rapper, "give me a reason
"Pretty please, lemme show you why Richie a beast"
I speak cold 'cos my city is freezing, my flow is
A hurricane, and yours is a Caribbean breeze
And you can bet your ass I get down
Fuck a mic check I mastered this sound
Give the kid get a bottle of Jameson, watch as I take it to
The neck and pass this shit 'round
Get the picture, I'm the last piece of the puzzle
The boy is ill for real, I should be in a bubble
Rappers only get deeper in trouble, what'll it be?
All I need is a mic, all you need is a muzzle
Fuck words, Richie spit sticks and stones
The shit that splits your bones when the mix is in on
Whenever I get the drones, I get busy till I hit
The zone and leave your whole fucking system blown, bitch
Spot a lame and I rip 'em apart
You want the fire, son, Richie can spark it
And that's how I'mma live till I die in a shitty apartment
In the heart of the city of darkness, till then, I'll be...
[Chorus/Interlude]
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
Takin' a - takin' a - takin' a train
Takin' a train, takin' a train
