Name Taken - Hold On For Your Dearest Life Lyrics

Bed-Stuy Is Burning by Skyzoo




Bed-Stuy Is Burning
As true as you and me there's a mayor on every block
Singing The Dramatics and playing with ready rock
Usually it seem like he's waiting to catch a drop
You're clinging to his habits, he saving you from a spot
Round the way work, jewels in the ground, hit the pay dirt
Love is love, you're in good hands, Dennis Haysbert
Openly protected by who you be neck and neck with
'Til you looking over like look at what they done made work
Circling the block, I know your call before you start
Put your phone down, Pyer Moss to the heart
Word to all of that, love it or leave it we're afforded that
20 D batteries, count them wrong, brought them back
Attracted to what you see on the screen
But then thinking you can recast it to keep who you need
Keep it cool, sh*t is cool, you don't need me to leave
Word to God it's nothing to let you be who you be
I mean for real though

There's a fire sale in the Stuy
30 floors up
Burnt the vibe clear out the sky
Had a view worth a mil but
Views get for real and
Usually get killed when you in here to buy

There's a fire sale in the Stuy
30 floors up
Burnt the vibe clear out the sky
Had a view worth a mil but
Views get for real and
Usually get killed when you in here to buy

Please Philly don't let this happen to you
Please Atlanta don't let this happen to you
Please DMV don't let this happen to you
Please LA don't let this happen to you
Please Detroit don't let this happen to you
Please Chicago don't let this happen to you
Please Texas don't let this happen to you
Please New Orleans don't let this happen to you

To whom it may concern don't let this happen to you
True to what you heard they want this back like a loop
They gave you a curb and kept you back on the stoop
And now what they prefer is to help you pack when you move
And an argument is made, for calling out a blame
Visions of a doorstep and all that it became
They ain't have the heart to stand on it 'til today
The smoke all clear and they just wanting the remains
Funny ain't it, the bottom of the bag is what you make it
Jump the line cause, I ain't never seen money waiting
sh*t you ran from is what you tryna run away with
And brownstones is looking Salvation underrated
Told us tag a dotted line if you care to survive
And if not pick a spot and just be here for the ride
The aura of quarter waters over Mary J Blige
My neighborhood give you life but was you here when it died
Riddle me that

There's a fire sale in the Stuy
30 floors up
Burnt the vibe clear out the sky
Had a view worth a mil but
Views get for real and
Usually get killed when you in here to buy

There's a fire sale in the Stuy
30 floors up
Burnt the vibe clear out the sky
Had a view worth a mil but
Views get for real and
Usually get killed when you in here to buy

Please Philly don't let this happen to you
Please Atlanta don't let this happen to you
Please DMV don't let this happen to you
Please LA don't let this happen to you
Please Detroit don't let this happen to you
Please Chicago don't let this happen to you
Please Texas don't let this happen to you
Please New Orleans don't let this happen to you

Block party every summer, 40 acres and a mule
Same block where it was from and it became the living proof
Last of a dying breed, praises is due
While you're cursing out the stage from your roof
You came here itching for the vibe, take it with us if we gone
No money in Sal's, blame the pictures on the wall
A box of Kennedy fried got you thinking you involved
sh*t is smooth, I was there too before I moved along
Funny ain't it


There's a fire sale in the Stuy
30 floors up
Burnt the vibe clear out the sky
Had a view worth a mil but
Views get for real and
Usually get killed when you in here to buy

Please Atlanta don't let this happen to you
Please DMV don't let this happen to you
Please LA don't let this happen to you
Please Detroit don't let this happen to you
Please Chicago don't let this happen to you
Please Texas don't let this happen to you
Please New Orleans don't let this happen to you

Chopped cheese and
Kennedy friend and
Dollar Arizona's and
Four wings with fried rice
And extra duck sauce
All of the reasons you was out front for
Coming with us if we up and gone

Chopped cheese and
Kennedy friend and
Dollar Arizona's and
Four wings with fried rice
And extra duck sauce
All of the reasons you was out front for
Coming with us if we up and gone
