Vanilla Rainbows lyrics

by

Curtis Mayfield


[Intro: eXquire]
The word passion, it uhm
It actually derives from the Latin word il passio
Which means "to suffer"
And it's almost poetic justice in a way
Cause uh, you know
I got that sh*t tatted on my tummy
And uh, I been sufferin'
But, you know
You suffer for your ups
You suffer for your downs and your triumphs
You pain is always just a fuel
It's a motivator for your triumphs, you know
You know, I don't like it myself
So like no old school rappers and stuff like that
I don't really see it
I look at myself as more of an Issac Hayes
Or a Donny Hathaway
Or, you know, a Marvin Gaye of my time, you know
I'm just reporting the world as I see it
Reporting my struggle

[Verse 1: eXquire]
Ozwald Boateng, Bottega Veneta
Moms mad, cause I spent so much cake on this sweater
I ain't do it to floss, mommy
I did it to show 'em
You worked your fingers to the bone
The whole world gonna owe us
Owe me back, like 40 acres to glass
Plus a mule and a thick model b*tch to match
Savage Rock Lee's with the elastic straps
I know they ugly
I don't work hard to wear Air Max
Flashback to the stockroom at the Gap
Hoes is frontin' on me then
Tell me, where they at
You ain't never been at where I been at
What you make in a year couldn't pay my tax
And I ain't tryin' to sh*t
I'm just statin' the facts
If I sh*t by mistake, n*gga, live with that
Got a job for you, you can wipe my ass
Net skills so close, I could pick off a pass
And I don't like the Nets
I just came cause they asked
Never was a thug, ain't ashamed of my past
As the sands of time disintegrate in the glass
You gettin' older and lookin' broker
You n*ggas is trash
Washed up Wolverine with the bone claws
Frontin' on actress b*tches
You were born raw
You the type that make me turn my phone off
Nobody called when I was eating cold cuts and canned corn
When Chinese food was a treat
We was happy to eat
I turned my bummy into fly
Those same FILAs on my feet
Shout to Crystal, cause that b*tch used to hold me down
Bought me dress clothes
Plus, she printed my resume out
Probably somewhere with a di*k in her mouth
If that b*tch never cheated, she would be with me now
Funny how tables turn and destiny burns
n*ggas get left behind, cause they unable to learn
Very chosen few that was great as a sperm
Me, I stay low and try to save what I earn
If wealth's accrued and pursued in nirvana, then cool
If not, let me rock and just do what I do
Vanilla rainbows after cherry raindrops
Runnin' from the Devil, cause his flame's hot
