The Blues (feat. Andreas 13) Lyrics

f/ Andreas 13<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES in the hull of a ship<br />
<br />
beneath the sting of a slavemaster's whip<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES on a ship anchored to dock<br />
<br />
my family being sold on a slave block<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES being torn from my first born<br />
<br />
and hung my head and cried<br />
<br />
when my wife took his life<br />
<br />
and then commited suicide<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES on a slavemaster's plantation<br />
<br />
helpin him build his free nation<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES in the cotton field<br />
<br />
hustlin to make the daily yield<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES when he forced my woman to bed<br />
<br />
lawd KNOWS how I wish he was dead<br />
<br />
I sing the BLUES on the run.. {*fades out*<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Andreas 13]<br />
<br />
{It-it-it, it takes, it-it ta-it<br />
<br />
It takes.. solitude, to contemplate a dope rhyme<br />
<br />
Drop the bass as I go for mine<br />
<br />
13, and I'm chillin with the X Man<br />
<br />
I choose to spews the blues, so you can understand<br />
<br />
I'm harder than the steel forged in a hot fire<br />
<br />
The Prince of Power, the ink of desire<br />
<br />
Engagin Andreas in the muck or the mire<br />
<br />
I got a storm - and she is a live one<br />
<br />
Singin in the background, promisin the stars the moon<br />
<br />
and the sun sayin, &quot;Dre' I got a new life<br />
<br />
and I've just begun, a rerun might be fun&quot;<br />
<br />
Now I play to win the game, to be put on<br />
<br />
This is what, gives me the blues, word is bond<br />
<br />
So now I'm gone..<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Andreas 13]<br />
<br />
Now, it's the blues, so don't snooze, check out how I kick it<br />
<br />
A def beat that's dope wild and wicked<br />
<br />
A mad brother, that is God gifted<br />
<br />
So tell me why am I another statistic<br />
<br />
Payin all my bills and still bein evicted<br />
<br />
Slum lord brought a rate height and I ripped it<br />
<br />
Broken lights, and no hot water<br />
<br />
You got nerve in here, beggin for a quarter<br />
<br />
Burn this bitch down, is what I oughta do<br />
<br />
and that's comin from the workin man's point of view<br />
<br />
The first of the month and all my bills are due<br />
<br />
I pay the light bill and pay the phone bill do<br />
<br />
because if I don't, my po' ass is through<br />
<br />
My po' ass is through<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I..<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Andreas 13]<br />
<br />
I got a job - workin and smirkin for Apartheid County<br />
<br />
It takes two weeks to step collect my bounty<br />
<br />
and damn, I can't believe the way they tax me<br />
<br />
A third of my pay G?Exactly!<br />
<br />
Yeah they think they got me, sweatin for a paycheck<br />
<br />
Hearin my boss riff with empty threats<br />
<br />
But I don't worry, and I don't fret<br />
<br />
Just daydream about regrets<br />
<br />
Would I do it all over again?No words<br />
<br />
Cause workin everyday, and still bein broke..<br />
<br />
.. is strictly to the curb!<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
[Andreas 13]<br />
<br />
Now my girl, I tell her that I love her<br />
<br />
She says if you do, you must suffer - SUCKA<br />
<br />
So she moves in with another - brother<br />
<br />
Claimin to me, she needs two lovers<br />
<br />
One for the sex, and one for the money<br />
<br />
You know which one I was, but not to be funny<br />
<br />
Let me tell you all about this sourpuss honey<br />
<br />
Was she slick, and was she crummy<br />
<br />
cause I believed her when she said she loved me<br />
<br />
Oh boy, what a dummy<br />
<br />
because behind the back, everyone ain't true<br />
<br />

You see I live with someone, and scummy does too<br />
<br />
She said, &quot;It's good for me.. if it's good for you&quot;<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
{That's why I sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{That's why I, I have to sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{Ahhh-hahhh, that's why I.. that's why I..<br />
<br />
{That's why I got to sing the blues..<br />
<br />
{ooooh-hooooooooo..<br />
