Northern State Follow

I thought I was gonna introduce the vicious cycle
Like this is an introduction to the vicious cycle

It’s our vicious cycle
Our vicious cycle
Our vicious cycle

It’s our vicious cycle
Our vicious cycle
Our vicious cycle

I like to write my rhymes in twos
You know that even cowgirls get the blues
And I’m saving all my money cause I don’t drink booze
I’m just an ill mc who gets the ill reviews
You want my resolution so come and get it
I‘m right in the mood and you know that you’re sweating
Correne is the artist while I’m just a rapper
My name’s Juliette and now don’t you forget it

Sit in the night I listen to the distant chimes
The wind howls through my head
As I dream in rhymes
I keep the beat
I hear the clock tick
I burn the candle from both ends of the wick
Said I got to feel the electricity
Gotta take deep breaths and use my body
Gotta stretch beyond my capacity
Both musically and mentally
I got to spend less time watching MTV
Gotta use what I have
And give the rest away
I must remember all the things that I want to say

I’m feeling unshakable
Like I knew I would
Cause Northern State is up to something good
Yo my hands are steady and my mind is ready
And Manhatten's trying to hear us cause they know they should
But hold up son, your arms are sloppy like I hit and run
Your game’s all over and it just begun
I write what I know
I know a lot

Yo Northern State's gonna blow op this whole fucking spot

It’s a vicious cycle
A vicious cycle
A vicious cycle

It’s a vicious cycle
A vicious cycle
A vicious cycle

It’s the writers and the mc’s and the deejays and the breakers
Not the corporations and the hit makers
That keep hip-hop fresh
The kids gotta hear it
I move closer to the speakers so that I can get near it

You’re controlling the world cause you’re controlling the wealth?
What what?
I don’t belong to you I belong to myself

That’s right

And you can run fast but you can’t catch me
I’m a lead write like Muhammed Ali
All up in the action wherever I’ll be
That doctor Prynn Ph.D.
In the age of police brutality
Open up your eyes and it’s clear to see
It doesn’t take 41 to kill a man without a gun
And glad to wake ad vide
To Guiliani

Yo, who owns the wall space in this big city
The company’s have billboards but that shit ain’t pretty
Governments busy scrubbing true art off the wall
The voices of the people and the freedom scroll

It’s a vicious cycle
A vicious cycle
A vicious cycle

It’s a vicious cycle
A vicious cycle
A vicious cycle

Going back and forth and forth and back
And my pen is on the paper like a train is on a track
Going back and forth and forth and back
And my pen is on the paper like a train is on a track
Going back and forth and forth and back
And my pen is on the paper like a train is on a track
Going back and forth and forth and back
It’s a vicious cycle

I’m trying to write a greater rhyme
Just trying to have me a better time
You know I’m trying to get me some peace of mind
And that’s hard to find, yo it’s hard to find

We’ll all sisters fighting over Jacob in the red tent
Depending on a man cause he’d pay the rent
But we make half as much for working twice as hard
I walk around in the summer need a bodyguard
You say that I’m beautiful under your breath
But you’re not looking at my eyes
no you’re staring at my chest
I can seen history
Like a pal obsessed
I know the ladies can figure out the rest

And this goes out to the government who bombed baghdad
To the founding fathers who wrecked this land
Open your eyes and rewrite your text
Cause there’s a lot that you can learn from the opposite sex
