NEon Lights

Lyrics

Natural Elements - "NEon Lights" [Emcee(s): Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta), Swigga (AKA L-Swift), Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] [Producer(s): Charlemagne and J. Armz] [Verse 1: Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] I ask the questions that are beyond answers. Catch me Dancing with the stars like neon, Deion Sanders. I've been Gifted since I peed on Pampers. This universe is a Holographic illusion—do you believe in magic? Me and my demons go at it like Larry Bird and Magic. Should I Carry birds through traffic or carry the weight of the world on my shoulders? Now that's a heavy burden to fathom As my imagination expands and my thoughts travel Through a stream of consciousness. Life is but a dream, and it seems We've been asleep so long, we can't snap out of it Talcum powder on my neck, fresh out the barber shop Vintage kicks match my drip, I'm getting stopped a lot For photo ops and various inquiries. Anthony Is gifted lyrically just like the symphony, but this ain't '86 And my niggas, they lack sympathy, blast you 'til Infinity, wrap you up, no amenities. If someone's got it Out for me, the galaxy has it in for me—what an oxy- -moron. There's beauty in the symmetry. Natural Elements There's divinity in the trinity. I got that Leroy glow, I illuminate spiritually like neon lights [Hook: Natural Elements] [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] Neon lights in the city that Never sleeps, it's beyond bright. Yeah, it's hella gen- -trified, but we be aight [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be aight [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be aight [Natural Elements] Under neon lights [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] NE-on days in the city that Never sleeps, so you DOA. Yeah, we dodging Potholes, but we be OK [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be OK [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be OK [Natural Elements] Under neon lights [Verse 2: Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] St. Lucia to NY without missing a step When I was L-Swift and I wasn't Swigga just yet Playing baseball and football, but I'm swimming the best Swigga Phelps hit the L, and I'm winning as well Was addicted to cigarettes but I quit 'em, and, yes I'm still addicted to cess, but I'm thinking correct Hmm, I turn my addiction into a mission statement To make Swigga Sativa a dispensary favorite Yes, straight from NY like the Knicks and the Mets I'm a Yankees Stadium and a Mitchell & Ness That hit the Northeast Bronx, and I chill and reflect When I was sixteen with sixteens spinning on Flex No payola involved, he just heard it and played it As you should do with this if you're trying to murder your playlist How New York supposed to sound, NE for the win From the beginning to the end and rebuild it again Within… [Hook: Natural Elements] [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] Neon lights in the city that Never sleeps, it's beyond bright. Yeah, it's hella gen- -trified, but we be aight [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be aight [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be aight [Natural Elements] Under neon lights [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] NE-on days in the city that Never sleeps, so you DOA. Yeah, we dodging Potholes, but we be OK [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be OK [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be OK [Natural Elements] Under neon lights [Verse 3: Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Lottery Four-four, my number came, I almost fainted Agu leaving this city graffiti-painted Stick-up kid on the G-Train, nameplate belt buckle with the chain Tongue-kissing your girl like I was Kane Slick Rick with the eyepatch, jewelry, suit, and tie match Pull a toolie out the Louis for beef that I catch B-boy with gangster incentives watching renegades on life as Black-and-white TVs with wire-hanger antennas I'm 'victing y'all. Borough 13 Park, walk through the project halls Hole in the wall, one exit, bullet holes in the lobby door Pause tape demos. Busy Bee with Lisa Lee Rapping in a limo with some finely shaped dimples Blunts smoked through gold fronts, watch their head blow Voodoo tilted just like [?] Brooklyn, New Yorker for life. Talk is contrived, draw The knife under the neon lights, he ain't gon' be alright [Hook: Natural Elements] [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] Neon lights in the city that Never sleeps, it's beyond bright. Yeah, it's hella gen- -trified, but we be aight [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be aight [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be aight [Natural Elements] Under neon lights [Swigga (AKA L-Swift)] NE-on days in the city that Never sleeps, so you DOA. Yeah, we dodging Potholes, but we be OK [Anthony Cruz (AKA A-Butta)] Yeah, we be OK [Agu (AKA Mr. Voodoo)] Yeah, we be OK [Natural Elements] Under neon lights
