Lyrics
FALLIN’
written by ralph dalton, peter kim
I can rip it, equipped with lyrically gifted
sh** typhoot, sh** tin’ on these cats so sickenin’
This is how we do it in the Chi on the weekend
Gettin’ whatever you need to deal with the drama
Gotta hold that, roll that, blow that, show that,
My city goin’ all-out, we ain’t ho’s
Amateurs sh** [on the mic], actin’ like pros,
New to the game, music’s from the soul
You better bring everything right to the show
Got one shot, gonna blow, keep control
This may be my only opportunity so
Forget everything else and move with me
Hopefully this’ll shine like jewelry,
Who you be? Thinkin’ you foolin’ me?
When ya game is lame and you can’t maintain, this is me,
I go against the grain, when there ain’t nothin’ else to gain
Catch me, baby, I’m falling… falling for you
May I kick a little somethin’ for the G’s and,
Make a few ends as I breeze through
Lil mama, don’t you know how we do
Here in the Big Windy, it’s HANIBL
Doin’ somethin’ that’s quite magical and
Any other way just wouldn’t be practical
I’m givin’ it to you, baby, the best way that I can,
The child is the father of the man
So if you’re gonna eat, you might as well feed
If you need, then you might as well give
Music is life, so in the beats is where I live and
If I ain’t at work, I’m probably at the crib, gotta
Push on, learn to deal with the pressure and if you
Don’t fail there ain’t no way to measure the treasure,
When ya game is lame and you can’t maintain, this is me,
I go against the grain, ain’t nothin’ else to gain
Try to create a way to relate,
To the ones who dictate how society is ran
Callouses, dirty hands, draw lines in the sand
When the water rolled in, a new line began
We’re puppets on a string so f*** Gepetto
Havin’ you screamin’ “La La” like Carmelo
From the high rise to the lo-end, we blow in,
It’s the chill factor off Lake Michigan
It’s fresh water, don’t drink it, I try to tweak it,
Don’t know the secret to release it, why they keep it
How they treat it gets me heated, best believe it
Too much bull sh** – I can’t stay seated
It’s blatant disregard, they know they’re cheatin’
After all else fails, one way to defeat it
When their game is lame, man, they can’t maintain
C’mon y’all, let’s go against the grain, ain’t sh** left to gain
