ASAKUSA RIOT
Yo, smashed glass on the floor
Dodge a nine, out my mind
What the hell you think you fighting for uh
This aint a movie, no excuses, it's no use
I'm medusa, wanna choose her
Girl lets kick it, Asakusa uh
Outside, it's a war
Brothers hate to the core
Sleepwalking to the Babylon whore
Settle scores
Egged on by the the hate that you saw
On a newspaper stand
Sponsored corporate gods
One look at my hair and they show me the door
But it's cool, I compose, symphonies from the floor
Settle scores
I don't need manuscript, cos I write from the soul (off the dome)
Flows, beats and rhymes
When it rains, then it pours
In a world full of hate
Hear the music, I see colours and shapes
Free the spirit with the art that we gotta create
Cos our love, aint a dream, it's our fate
So c'mon, Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
They take a swing, it's a miss
Land a kick flip
While I spit
It's a critical hit
Fall in love with a girl from the slits
Blow a kiss from the stage
What a trip, gate keep the abyss uh uh
Whole world try to swallow me
Now they wanna follow me
Being Asian aint a goddamn novelty
This my life, this my right, go inside
Too much wine, yo I'm fine, my people aint meant to cry
Tragedy of a blind writer
Grief struck us
Now a street fighter
Right down to the wire
Now I look higher, in my final hour
Now I spit fire
Enemies hide and cower
First I slay, then I send your mama flowers
Meditate for hours, then I mosh with the Taoists
I know the government won't allow it
But don't you know they can't hold us back
Cos the crowds still shout it
Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
Let's begin our escape
Dodge a nine, out my mind
What the hell you think you fighting for uh
This aint a movie, no excuses, it's no use
I'm medusa, wanna choose her
Girl lets kick it, Asakusa uh
Outside, it's a war
Brothers hate to the core
Sleepwalking to the Babylon whore
