Lyrics
TRIBAL
written by peter kim, ralph dalton
Got that vibe? got that feelin?
Got that vibe, got that feelin,
Floor to the ceilin?, the Chi town?s villain
Able, willin?, ready, aim steady at the bullseye
Up in the whip, they cruise high
Do or die, choose to do what the f*** I feel
To elevate me and my crew
If the tempo ain?t right, flow gotta be tight,
You never heard somethin? this ill, before in your life, I
Stay on the ground creepin? low,
Chi town locks it down from north to south shore
Hold that, roll that, blow that
I control that flow that don?t lack
MCs in disguise, it?s your demise
Truth becomes lies, it ain?t no surprise
MCs gotta learn how to hold the mic
I showed you right, it?s Chi town SOLDIERS? night, c?mon!
HANIBL, got a crazy side (WHAT!!?!)
HANIBL, got a crazy side (WHAT!!?!)
HANIBL, got a crazy side (WHAT!!?!)
?Cuz the soul of hip-hop that lays inside (WHAAAaaaaTT!?!)
Oops, you
Tripped? slipped? in
Quick cash predicaments
All you see is dollar signs
No self-discipline
Jehovah witnessed in the beginnin?
Over the House of HANIBL
This is undeniable
Can?t stop it, yo I?m
Neapolitan? followin? cats
Through the metropolitan
City, wallowin? in self-pity
[?Cuz they] Ain?t givin? out scholarships
For the hardships, hard times,
Times is hard workin? overtime
On the borderline of broke, these
Greedy rich motherf*** ers make me choke, c?mon!
You know misery needs company, my pain ain?t what you want to see
This gonna take more than what you?re thinkin?, so you know this ain?t gonna be easy
You know when your life is on the line, well I?m hard to strike ?cuz I?m on the grind
It?ll be all good when you decide, if you?re man enough to see the signs
