NY Hip Hop Gold Express

NY Hip Hop

Gold Express

Bling Shop

Afro Brothers

proprietorship

 

buyin and sellin

filthy lucre

of down hard

Gat packin

Gangstas

on the down low

throwin down

fallin hook

line and stinker

 

just a bunch

of lil fishies

wigglin at the end

of golden chains

 

its all about

the bling baby

all about the bling

 

"I pity the fool"

saith Mr. T

the potentate of

soul and gold

who ain't

down with

the cool jewels

of righteous

B Teamers

arrested by

the silk rope

of glitzy discos

bribing bouncers

with an

earnest Jackson

to *** rush

the vanity faire

of bumping

A Listers

 

Or was it

Def Jam

Buddhas

minting

coin on

MTV?

 

exploiting

misogyny

and ghost

face killas

NWAs

slugging cases

of Kristol

blowing

fat spliff

smoke

up the *** of

Phat Farm

kids in

the hood

shooting

silver

bullets at

the man

takin baths

in tubs

of fifties

lighting up

with crisp

C Notes

rollin

through

life

in black

Escalades

its silver

spinners

twisting fast

round

corners

where

being cool

went blind

and

Coolie High

homies

still tip

a sip

for the

brothers

who ain't

there

 

Today

its all about

the raised fist

of power to

the P Diddy

fighting

the power

of the people

as leggy

Beyonce

warbles

songs

for the

posse

of a

Libyan

Dictator

whose

blood

money

pays

a cool

mil

cover

for a

New Years

Eve

tune

 

Its all about

the bling

baby

 

All about

the bling

baby, all

about the

bling.
