Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, I was looking out my window, man When I heard the sirens Looked up into the sky Saw the moon turn to blood Looked at my little brother Said, "You high as hell, man" [Chorus] Apocalypse One, two, the headline news just broke through Apocalypse Three, four, soldier, a hundred horsemen at your door Apocalypse Five, six, you wanted dead or alive, hit or miss Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui) Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui) [Verse 1] Arrival of the carnival, new beats, I never recycle While you're looking for samples, you might get trampled Surprise, hey, I'm back with lightning and thunder I heard you over saying I'm a one-hit wonder You dumb or somethin'? Went to refugees 'til infinity When I'm done, collect royalty from record companies Clouds getting darker, sun's getting nearer I'll turn an atheist to a God-fearing believer The back of a building, your body's found by children Playin' hide go seek, what we found was your skeleton In the back of a car, you sparred with the wrong guard You know my empire strikes back hard Missiles launch, "War!" it's the day after ashes Project cannons being launched at the palace Vision, revelation, sky rode apocalypse Enemy pilots kamikaze into the abyss [Chorus] Apocalypse One, two, the headline news just broke through Apocalypse Three, four, soldier, a hundred horsemen at your door Apocalypse Five, six, you wanted dead or alive, hit or miss Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui) Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui, ayo) [Verse 2] Back on earth the party's at the tunnel On the west side of the river with mad quiver Rats get fed to the alligator Gun blast equivalent to the bombs in Pearl Harbor Rescue choppers, Brooklyn turned to Hiroshima I'm driving to Jersey to escape the terror I was on the highway pushing a black Viper A car pulls up, is he a jacker or a sniper? (Sniper) A blue Range Rover, he says, "Pull over!" I didn't know he was a DT undercover I screamed out my lungs, "This is discrimination! What's the charge?" He said, "You just robbed a gas station" "Who me? Not me, It couldn't be I was at the Grammys with Brandy, didn't you see me on TV?" "Bullshit, y'all all in the same gang!" He tried to run me off the road like he was Rosco P. Coltrane I stayed calm, gave him a hell of a show 'Cause if it's ever time to go, all I gotta press is turbo Heard him on his walkie, road block on 280 West Things got serious, that's when I bust a left U-Turn, my tires burned, my concern was a truck coming Head-on collision within a second changed position Close one, I almost went up in a blaze Running from what appeared to be a masquerade At least that's what I thought, it was all in my mind Reality stuck when I got to the borderline The headline reads every ghetto sad story A rookie shoots a boy over mistaken identity (Crash) [Pre-Chorus] Apocalypse Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui) Oui, oui, y'all (Oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui) [Chorus] Apocalypse One, two the headline news just broke through Apocalypse Three, four soldier, a hundred horsemen at your door Apocalypse Five, six you wanted dead or alive, hit or miss Oui, oui, y'all (Oui, oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui, oui) Oui, oui, y'all (Oui, oui), oui, oui, y'all (Oui, oui) [Outro] The Carnival, nobody's protected, anything can happen Alright
