(Where you gonna hide?)

Another Little Brother presentation
(Where you gonna hide?)
Uh, come on
Sendin' this out across the nation
[Verse 2]
I'm a hell of a problem, nobody has the answer
Pooh be spreadin' out like a body of cancer
My stanza, get it goin' like a car (Vroom)
Usher in a new era like this, y'all (This, y'all)
I'm raw, stripped down, no minerals
A distilled emcee, no chemicals, no subliminals
A smooth criminal before the rape charge
I shake and bake, bring terror to your squad
My pen's ferocious, I'm so focused
And I pray to God that the world knows this (Know it)
Exposes flaws in your scheme, dawg
Me and Dilla go hard, my Lord
You don't want no problems, problems (Ooh)
I'm a **** that'll solve 'em, solve 'em (Ooh)
Without a doubt, yeah
I'm in the booth, cold knockin' **** out
Tell my tales by word of mouth
Yeah, you know me
[Verse 3]
(Where you gonna hide?)
When the sun goes down
And the lights in the city get low
(Where you gonna hide?)
When your peeps ain't around
And there ain't no place to go
(Where you gonna hide?)
When the hood start watchin'
And the boys got they eye on your safe
(Where you gonna hide?)
Ain't nowhere to run
And there ain't no hiding place
[Verse 4]
Don't compare me to jokes
I'll strangle the air in your throat
Like you jump from a chair and choke
In mid-air from a rope
Got a big gun and carry a scope
The flare of the smoke
Keep **** quiet like words librarians spoke
I'm arrogant, outlandish
Blow your face out, and shake out the dandruff
The jakes won't make out the handprints
I'm as real as it gets with the steel and the clips
Buck and make **** duck
And kneel and do splits
[Verse 5]
It gets no realer than this
It's Tay and Elzhi droppin' that definitive shit
This should have been a double album
Commemorative disc
'Cause hip hop might need us (Uh)
And in your town, no tellin' where you might see us (Come on)
My whole team comin' through in tees and wife beaters
Out doin' their damn thing like beavers (Oh)
Yo, it's P to the H-O, I finish the job
Plus my Dominican broad
Makin' me chili con queso (Aye, bonito)
[Verse 6]
Work and plan a perfect verse
To burst like a person
That jerked from a circus cannon
Then land to the Earth
It's me on the song, featured your fleet
Breathin' as strong
It's a gypsy readin' a palm with a drawn heater
Never gone off the wrong reefer
A bong chief of the don
Ball as long as LeBron's bronze sneakers
Got ways of a thuggie
Think I won't come and get you
Dressed like a bum with pistols
And AK's in the buggy
[Verse 7]
And Tay is blazin' it lovely 'cause I'm one with the game
So I sat back, chilled, dropped Foreign Exchange
And a lot of rap **** got lost
Heard Phontigga carryin' tunes and assumed he done got soft
(Now let's move)
They didn't understand it was my next direction
So I'm playin' postman and addressin' questions
Like yes, I'm still a LB, no, I'm not leavin'
No, I don't eat meat but, yes, I'm still beefin' (Uh)
Wit' all these wack **** puttin' records out
This is all live, ****, check it out
LB, S Villa fam on a mission
And I ain't worried about **** bitin' Minstrel Show
They still teethin' on The Listening, come on
[Verse 8]
One more time for your mind, let's get it
(Where you gonna hide?)
When the sun goes down
And the lights in the city get low
LB and S Villa, come on
(Where you gonna hide?)
When your peeps ain't around
And there ain't no place to go
From the 919 to the 313
(Where you gonna hide?)
When the hood start watchin'
And the boys got they eye on your safe
From North Carolina to the thirty-three
(Where you gonna hide?)
Ain't nowhere to run
And there ain't no hiding place
(Come on)
[Verse 9]
Hey, yo, I wake up every morning holding my, fuck
Babe, what's wrong?
Ain't nothin' wrong, man, hold on
I wake up every morning
You look like something's wrong
I'm tryna remember my line
[Verse 10]
Yo, what up, B
Whats happenin', man, yo
Fifteen minutes, man
Fifteen?
Fifteen minutes, you walk
When I say Joe Scudda, that's you
Okay, I got it, aight, no doubt
It's alive out there, ****
It's alive? (Woo)
[Verse 11]
You got fifteen minutes to relax
Yeah, I'm chill, I got it, I got it, I got it
Just relax, take your time
How am I gon' relax?
There's mad people out there, I, I'ma, this shit gonna be fucked up
I'ma look crazy
No, you will be fine, just be patient
Aight, aight
Here, come here, lemme relax you for a minute
Oh
