In the Vip - ¡MAYDAY!, Killa Kela

There’s a war going on outside no-one is safe from

Didn’t notice 'til they took it out my paystub

Proletariat until you find me face up

Five fingers make a fist, better raise one

Now you’re holding up a deadly combination

Raise the other for the brother tryin' to change some

'Til you got a set to even the equation

Stick and move until the opportune occasion

Innovation will set me free eventually

Microchips, gigabytes, technology

I see it comin' quicker, they think it’s just speculatin'

Something’s in the air, something’s in this newfound data

Buried inside the crossfader: Alpha, Omega

Analog hop;

digital operator

See, they’re running out of bait to lower the fuel base

Because their oil and gold don’t hold the same weight

My clique’s awake from 1−8-48

For better raise hell when the time coordinates

It ain’t a question of if, but of when

I’m preparing my mind and my body until then

(What kind of life am I standing for?)

Yo, a party ain’t a party if you can’t get in

You best to open up the floor or we gon' bust right in

The velvet ropes will choke your flashin'

When the crowd get hype and the beats get violent

Yo, a party ain’t a party if you can’t get in

You best to open up the floor or we gon' bust right in

The velvet ropes will choke your flashin'

When the crowd get hype and the beats get violent

There’s five stars hidden under these bars

Underneath the concrete streets and boulevards

Been workin' hard for change, but change comin' hard

Been playin' the odds so long my change almost gone

Raise it up — the roof is on fire but I don’t give a fuck

I’m gettin at god we trust because we must

We vibe, we lust, we bang, we bust, dance

'Til your downfall, 'til it’s obvious — relax

You’ll know it when the timing is right man

And feel it everywhere;

it’ll be fight or flight man

So bystand if it suffice man

My people got it bad for a brand new fad

And that’s fact — they don’t like how we act

When we practice black magic rap and hollabacks

Speaking slang and code for those who know

For the pros and for the cons

So let these words live on

'Cause it’s the first day of May;

we rendezvous dog

It ain’t a question of if, but of when

I’m preparing my mind and my body until then

(What kind of life am I standing for?)

Yo, a party ain’t a party if you can’t get in

You best to open up the floor or we gon' bust right in

The velvet ropes will choke your flashin'

When the crowd get hype and the beats get violent

Yo, a party ain’t a party if you can’t get in

You best to open up the floor or we gon' bust right in

The velvet ropes will choke your flashin'

When the crowd get hype and the beats get violent
