Escape
[Pete Rock
Check the verse in the Bible says man shall never cove
But in your life you put nothing above it, you seem to love i
Invest some stocks to clock what's in my stabl
Sweating me like Cain sweating Abel, you're unstabl
You couldn't speak, now what's the fake frown for
The jealousy, that's why you're feeling so insecur
Used to be by my side but now all I see is prid
On the quest to make lucci, got you open wid
It feels funny, cause it never used to be that wa
Remember PR back in the day
Hey, the number's changed and the crib's a little fatte
But if you was real, you'd see it really wouldn't matte
Check the stat in fact yo, don't ever try to peep thi
Don't mistake my kindness for a weaknes
The name is Pete Rock, I'll take you higher than the lis
I'm on a exodus, Escapis
Yo, check it ou
I like to rhyme, no time for silly head game
Strictly known for busting up your head frame
But skins bold, act like they want to know a nigg
Break they neck to show they figur
But yo, you can't gas me up, you can't hype m
Play it cool when it comes to schooling wife
On the ways of life it's life, checks, and big mone
So the next kid will be up on your hone
Sexing your honey, flexing your Benz and your mone
Playing you like a crash test dummy, so take it from m
Cause when it happens don't say I never told you s
Peep the verbal lessons in the flo
And ayo, you know they style, and yeah I'm here to warn y
Getting shaky cause I'm coming up on y
It's Pete Rock and C.L. Smooth on a major pape missio
Rising to the top, Escapis
I'm sitting back, I got the funk on cruis
While you snooze Pete Rock is steady paying his due
Putting styles on lock and making beats by the bundl
Scooping more props than Bryant Gumbal, and staying humbl
But then you go and have to act that wa
I just hit you off the other day
But this is sick, cause here you come with your crew of derelict
Talking about you need a pair of kicks, or this or tha
You hang around cause the pockets are fa
But when I'm on "E" yo, you ain't trying to check for m
You got more game than rugb
You're only stressing the name now that the papes is flowing lovel
So stop searching for idealis
And check the off-beat flow of the Soul Brother with the realis
Shedding some light just like a pris
You can't wait, you can't fake it, Escapism
