lyrics
street team families' bosses' loss
over $400 million income tax evasion.
ain't seen prison since '84
when his chauffeur gunned down his 2nd officer
law man said he tried to hide somebody
buying new prostitution with ole' drug habitats
street team knew someone had to go
so they oversold they crack game tools to soldiers
and now there's a backlash cuz "hip hop's dying".
what's killing the music?
is c.e.o. passion?
without help, no money is safe.
you best register your profits
'fore you lose your gates.
(streethop we love you)
(hiphop we love you)
(hold your guns for your suns)
(some ones is watching you)
some got they words with the strap
runnin your flesh with that
piece of heaven/tattoos at ground zero.
7:30 like clockwork.
some travel with dictionaries
teaching they seeds how to eat.
papayas in the tropics.
some been thru these checkout lines.
some bury they dead beef for a living.
some is on the run, terrified.
some just don't give a fuk.
they just stay alive.
(streethop we love you)
(hiphop we love you)
(hold your guns for your suns)
(some ones is watching you)

about
Chi.Turner. Vancouver, British Columbia
Delicious sonic textures, lyrics channeling an unusual devotion to daily life and a voice who's owner (some say) drinks too much coffee. Slightly better than cigarettes, I suppose.
