MEYHEM LAUREN--Swiss Alps FT. Action BronsonPRDC BY THOROTRACKS

Hook (x2)

See they already know about my folks and how my squad gets,
Holding down positions in the trenches like a monument,
Ducking all you snitches hitting fences like a marathon,
You ninjas just starting this rap, but dude we've been on.

Verse 1

I’m a war-torn statue, posted like a gargoyle,
Concrete in my veins, every rhyme spits oil,
Legends on my side, heavy metal when we rally,
Turn a mic into a machete, chop careers in the alley.

From the soil where the snakes hiss and rats squeal,
We built foundations, you just leasing on a bad deal,
Marathon mindset, Nipsey taught me laps,
While you sprint for attention, we stacking plaques.

We don’t bend, don’t break, we the architecture,
Blueprint in the booth, I’m the rhyme’s main investor,
Y’all fragile like porcelain, cracking when the bass drop,
We been armored up since the days of the tape pops.

Hook (x2)

See they already know about my folks and how my squad gets,
Holding down positions in the trenches like a monument,
Ducking all you snitches hitting fences like a marathon,
You ninjas just starting this rap, but dude we've been on.

Verse 2

I’m the Sistine Chapel of street shit, painted vivid,
Every verse a fresco, my scripture got you livid,
We carved out our lane with chisels dipped in pain,
Your verses vanish like chalk outlines in the rain.

I’m Atlas with the globe on my shoulders when I spit,
You just juggling pebbles, little stones that never hit,
I’m the blueprint’s architect, skyscraper in the mist,
Y’all apartments in the projects, rent due with no assist.

We dodge rats like hurdles, every fence another medal,
Shoes bloody from the mud, I still dance with the devil,
But my angels in the back, black hoodies with the chrome,
Ain’t no halfway hustlers, this mafia built a home.

Verse 3

We the pyramids of Giza, motherfuckers never move us,
Dynasty in the booth, scriptures sounding like Confucius,
Every bar a relic, hieroglyphics in my pen stroke,
You chasing trends while I’m engraving shit in bedrock.

Battle lines drawn, I’m a general with soldiers,
Our legacy’s eternal, y’all careers got foreclosure,
I’m the iron in the earth, magnetic with the grind,
Pulling coins out your pockets like a slot in overtime.

I spit sermons in the street, holy water on the beat,
My cathedral made of verses, I’m a prophet when I preach,
You a whisper in the crowd, I’m an echo in the canyon,
Monumental with my clan, timeless like the Grand Canyon.

Hook (Outro – x2)

See they already know about my folks and how my squad gets,
Holding down positions in the trenches like a monument,
Ducking all you snitches hitting fences like a marathon,
You ninjas just starting this rap, but dude we've been on.

We've Been On

this song is a real conversation starter. after working with tye hill in the studio for a few sessions of freestyling and punch recording, i began to get back to the old tree. the one who had something to say that was relevant to us all. in that session i came up with this hook that was both socially conscious and an obvious understatement. with all thats going on with our urban communities involving the police, i thought it be only right to say how i feel. and more than that i began to have debates days before with my white friends about their take on the isue of constant killings of young black men by police officers in america and the world. truth is i do have white friends and counterparts that i both adore and value and im positive that the feeling is mutual. what i found in conversation with these white friends is yea they definetly think somethings wrong or not right and somehow unfair, they just dont know how to help or be effective.. some even ask what can i do, what can i say?? who can i talk too.. at that moment were both often presented with an uneasy silence because i dont have the answer either. but what i can and often do tell them is say something!! denounce it on your social media's and have these discussions with other like minded civil people who will do the same. so in conclusion of these experiences i was compelled to put it in song thus titled "policemon"... in this song i ask the question as we all should meaning people of color.. how do my white friends feel about the fact that im a target here in america. who do my white friends feel about the fact that after i leave a bar or restaurant with you guys how its a real fear and possibilty that i can be pulled over and shot on the side of any street in america for all the wrong reasons and the recoil and consequence in whatever measure is unwarranted un just and 99% of the time unrectified or dealt with by the police and justice department as well as congress... i also go into detail about how i know people and have been at a time or two on the other side of the law, but in a world of limited avenues and opportunities for some there is still no reason to kill shoot or maim an individual because of their surroundings and condition. if a cop chases you and you run , that doesnt give them the right to play god in the ghetto! executioner and judge of the projects is a crime . so with that here is my song... i hope you all start healthy dialogue and speak out because the community is at risk and we cant do it by marching and looting. are white friends have to speak out!!

sorry this is so long- the original draft was over 3 hours, but I couldn't skim it any further than that without feeling like I was leaving something out. i assure you all tracks are fantastic.reissues are repped here, but only ones that were of stuff that was non-commercially released or hard to find prior to reissue (i.e. Smashing Pumpkins, Nirvana, Beach Boys are all absent). enjoy and feel free to embed whereevs.
