People Call Me Blu(e)

[Chorus] People call me (Blue!) People-ple call, people call me (Blue!) That’s how it is when I'm bustin' up a party People call me (Blue) MC am I- people call me (Blue!) People call, people call-call me (Blue!) Tha-tha-tha-tha-that's how it is People, people ca-call me (Blue!) [Verse 1] Uh, ayo, everybody wanna make a classic I just kick back and make something casual Everyday shit, I don't gotta take this All on my actual zone, I just say something natural Blue is thе color of the sky today And mostly every day whеn you live in LA The problem is the smog will make this city turn gray And we all know that ain't good but still we all stay And wait for the ocean breeze to blow it all away And then we light up and smoke the same freakin' day And we do that all week and every week the same 'Til the months and the years start to wear on your brain Aware I gotta change, aim for a higher plain Easy when the definition is your freaking name As you can see, I don't need a lot of space So I give you the night, and I take up all the day My name is Blu! [Chorus] People call me (Blue!) People-ple call, people call me (Blue!) That’s how it is when I'm bustin' up a party People call me (Blue) MC am I- people call me (Blue!) People call, people call-call me (Blue!) Tha-tha-tha-tha-that's how it is People, people ca-call me (Blue!) [Verse 2] Uh, everybody wanna be a rapper (Err) I just got up on them tracks and I rapped Kick some life shit, let you know I'm not your Average ass MC, I'm real, I don't act Facts spill off of my mental to the pencil or utensil That I used to write down the lyrics that get in you When you listen and soak up The gems I be dropping off the top since I woke up It's knowledge I be lodgin', I be loungin', you know, smoking dro, riding with my feet up A cab takes me to the studio to lay this feature Where I speak up on the blues of my life and bruise the mic like a beater Told the engineer, "Turn the beat up" "B-L never fell even when I fell", said the teacher I said, "You ain’t the teacher, KRS-One is the teacher" Knowledge, I’ll receive you through your speakers Rhymes walk on water but I ain’t Jesus I am Blu! [Chorus] People call me (Blue!) People-ple call, people call me (Blue!) People call me when I'm bustin' up a party People call me (Blue) MC am I- people call me (Blue!) People call, people call-call me (Blue!) Tha-tha-tha-that's how it is People, people ca-call me (Blue!) [Verse 3] Everybody wanna be like Blu now Since I blew up and you seen me move up Seen tryna move up on me and get blew down Show up to my show and get chewed up, and blew out I’m blued up, down to my Chucks with the tool out Blue steel if I choose to kill you out the picture Tryna take my crew out the mixture Is like when the whites left the blacks out the histo- -ry books stealing all that glory but we crooks? Like stealing all the limelight with weak hooks Anybody a G cooks pushes a bang, pimp players with game Macks, gangsters and gangs all heard of the name Big Blu rip crews out the frame Fixed too, pockets change, I flipped the rules I came, I saw, I conquered The game's layin' monster with a moniker I am Blu! [Chorus] People call me (Blue!) People-ple call, people call me (Blue!) People call me when I'm bustin' up a party People call me (Blue) MC am I- people call me (Blue!) People call, people call-call me (Blue!) Tha-tha-tha-that's how it is People, people ca-call me (Blue!) [Outro] Thing was blue, uh B-L-U, uh D-S crew, uh And Exile! (Wow!)
