Hello Pete

[Slug:]

Hello Pete, I think it's time to read them receipts

Tighten up the lightbulb and write your own speech

Change the pillowcase, unplug the wireless

Following a fever like it doesn't bug the viruses

I wish there was an island you could drive to just to

Occupy the time with a little peace and quiet

To balance all the violence that you've had to carry

And pick up some new vocabulary

And I ain't trying to suggest how to handle the stress

But everything's dirty with a capital F

Keep a canister of Narcan in the man purse

Put your hands in the air like you've got all the answers

If you know then you know how it looks

Some of these tattoos probably could've been books

And everybody's name might as well be Peter Piper

'Cause we are all graffiti writers

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?) (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

[Buck 65:]

Hello Pete, dope beat yo got a front row seat

Eating good goat meat cook it over low heat

Lookit, these are crow's feet growing old I don't cheat

Home run hitting 'em balls landing 20 rows deep

White bread or whole wheat? Children building muscle mass

'Cause you gotta hustle fast blinded by the muzzle blast

Soaking in a bubble bath, smoking like I'm Al Pacino

Jalapeño crack a cold one ride a golden palomino

Yo, so many classics in my oeuvre

Hang a photocopy of my album cover in the Louvre

I like to move it-move it, shovel and a sturdy bucket

So disturbing dirty fuck it, Kentucky derby Kirby Puckett

Winner's circle worthy of it celebrate with rebel yells

Camouflage and metal shells working out with kettlebells

Walking where the devil dwells, like LL I need a beat to be complete

I'm outta here, see ya Pete

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?) (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Pete get a job fill out an application

With a pen in formation you gonna need the work instead

Of struggling for handouts otherwise you gonna be a man down

Like 2pac said keep your head up

Improve and get it together

Get a suit for an interview not a Matrix leather

In the basic weather

Now let's prepare you with a face-to-face letter

Enroll in that course of success and open doors

I'm a businessman, no one cross

Blaze on with the cigar, I'm a boss

Don't worry about the shark in the water like Jaws

Just make sure you get that job

Personally, I don't want you to hang out with people that steal and rob

Motivation this is the big mountain to climb

Let me direct you follow the right sign

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

We keeping it live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?) (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)

Live (Is it live?)
