Clean Up

[Intro]

Now this is the real thing, we found a groove, ha

We move each other

[Verse 1: Saukrates]

I don't wanna leave you on the sidelines, dude

The clock is ticking, get your mind right, dude

Rememberin' the days when I was like you

Why I ain't end up in the pine box? True

What goes up, must come down

So when you sittin' at the top, you've won one round

Now here comes one generation that's so profound

You ain't never heard the word "assassination" so pronounced

Like as yo' ass go through the repercussion of winnin', 

While you sinnin', the nation stay huntin' for you

[Hook: Saukrates]

And I don't mean to break the news to you niggas

But the crabs in the bucket are true

As true as a bullet, easy as a trigger 'pon it

I'm sure you'll do what's best for you

So clean up, don't ease up

I know you'll do what's best for you

[Verse 2: Krondon]

Don't let the pressure leave your membrane bust

I see this wicked world got your head messed up

You couldn't cut it, so you should've been gave up

Who told yo' ass hit that Angel Dust?!

We the needy with bullets for the gritty

Grind time 24/7, substance possessions

Peter get Strong Arm'ed to pay Paul

It's a hood loan, hollow hearts ain't involved

Relationships can't resolve, we entertain spite

Hunger pains, watch parallels evolve

Realize size ain't shit, it's a movement

Of the grit, or result to the time that's spent

Not speculating gang bang culture, we live amongst

All the drunk, know no better, so you get stuck

Bad luck's contagious, but talent is hereditary

A few get to shine, but the rest behind cages

Scary

[Hook: Saukrates]

And I don't mean to break the news to you niggas

But the crabs in the bucket are true

As true as a bullet, easy as a trigger pon it

I'm sure you'll do what's best for you

So clean up, don't ease up

I know you'll do what's best for you

[Verse 3: Black Thought]

Yo, Conflict is Crucial, the drama is just futile, hush

Kinda make you wanna wonder, what to do you know? It must

Get a little easier on some "Ooh Child" – trust

People cut-throat, this is the new style

I know your man just passed, but this too shall

Just keep those crabs out of where you lay your roots down

They in the bucket tryna make they splash

And cake boys figure–fuck it, they gon' take they cash

'Cause it's like, "I gotta get it, gots-gots to get it"

Especially in a city where cops not permitted

So box lock your digits

I hate to be the one to break the news to you, but shit's hot – watch them niggas

A few is gonna flat-out walk up and say "Fuck you"

Others is gon' play it like, "Aye, what you been up to?"

Knowing they only wanna get somebody to touch you

I know regardless you gon' do what you must do – true

(You)

[Hook: Saukrates]

And I don't mean to break the news to you niggas

But the crabs in the bucket are true

As true as a bullet, easy as a trigger pon it

I'm sure you'll do what's best for you

So clean up, don't ease up

I know you'll do what's best for you

[Outro]

Me? You know I ain't high

Nigga, I ain't high

You know why?

'Cause I can't truly be high unless all my motherfuckin' friends is high

I look around, I see my friends

Do you know what I feel like doing?

(What you feel like doing?)

I feel like sharing my shit
