Swollen Members ~ Ventilate
| [madchild] Man, I can't believe I have to go through all of this again I gave you your position [prev] What, I thought we were friends?! I didn't ask, you offered, you're short-tempered and demanding It's my energy on stage that makes our show so outstanding [mc] Look, when we first hooked up, my first thought was you're a pansy You couldn't rap on beat, you little four-eyed geek [prev] Yeah? And at the club there's a reason we don't hang out that much You're double-fisted with two Heinekens actin like a lush [mc] That's better than a leash, I tried to teach you to be tough I guess it's hard to squeeze strength out of a cream puff. [prev] Oh you're rough? [mc] yeah thats right [prev] Hey, let me pass you a pen So you can fill an application at the Hair Club for Men [CHORUS (2X)] [MC] I meant everything I said [Prev] Everything I said I meant [both] When there's much on the line, yo, there's times you gotta vent "Ventilate" [both] We're magnificient together, it's a perfect combination [Prev] Man, you know how many times I've had to swallow my pride? Put my feelings aside so that we wouldn't collide? [MC] I know I'm hard to get along with and much harder to work for But I'm breakin my back while you're hangin out at the bookstore [Prev] Yeah, but when I'm there I'm readin Icarus, kinetics in English So when we make songs at least our music sounds distinguished [MC] Come on man, I made this happen, you don't appreciate shit [Prev] Yeah? [MC] I'm the one who hustled, yo, you never put in one cent You're dead-set in your ways, your stubborness [Prev] What? [Mc] How you think we got this far, it didn't happen from luck [Prev] If I had a buck for every kid I battled and slayed I'd had enough to start my own (edited) record label anyway [chorus (2X)] [MC] I hope you realize these songs weren't made for free [Pre] Man, I know But once the cash comes back you can recoup your dough [MC] Yeah bro, but you ain't even signed a contract [Pre] No, that's wack [MC] I could get stabbed in the back [Pre] You should know better than that [MC] Well, it's frustrating to me, I got a lot on my plate [Pre] Well, you're the one who put it there, I thought we already ate [MC] Alright look, where was I back three years ago? [Pre] Mininum wage? [MC] That's right, and where we at now? [Pre] Yeah, different page [MC] OK, what's the significance of the point I'm tryin to make? [both] We sound magnificient together [Pre] so let's drop this whole debate (How many states?) [MC] Not many (How many countries?) [Pre] Plenty (How old are both of y'all?) [both] Let's just say we're in our twenties (How'd you come up with the name Swollen Members?) [both] Drunk at Denny's (Any last words?) [both] Step up and you'll get kicked to the curb [Pre] We're strippin your verse, we're rippin, you're a [both] victim of words [both] We're both putting in work tryin to get what we deserve [CHORUS (2X)] more free lyrics |
