Anything Goes
Classified (feat Saukrates & Skratch Bastid) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Anything goes (yeah)
Anything goes (yeah)

Look (anything goes)
Low and behold my mojo's outta control
Back at it I'm no joke going for gold
I've been around put it down all over the globe
Still the Nova Scotian in me comes outta my mouth
The East Coast, my accent is evident
No neglecting it I represents my residents
The East Coast, and I don't hang with anyone whose selfish
Pass the weed I can smell it
I'm heavyweight attitude like Chevy Chase
I'm over thirty it's too late for you to set me straight
I don't ball, I ball hockey
I'm what you call cocky, Bob Marley meets Paul Coffey
People wake up, top of the morn'
I've been a motherfucker way before my daughter was born
Turn the clocks back and check the lock on your door
Because it ain't safe outside no more when

Anything goes
I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
I can't describe what I'm feeling
Ain't never felt this freedom (anything goes)
I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
Ain't never felt this freedom
Could you, could you say that

Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes (I say)
Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes

(Anything goes) I ain't on the same schedule as most
My demeanor and my timing is a little off beat
Whether it's rhymes or the marketing schemes or the beats
Best believe everything it's all me
I'm on stage freestyling off the head
Got the crowd reaching up trying to grab me like the walking dead
I love hip-hop but fuck rap
Y'all can suck a dick and lick the nut sack to the butt-crack
(People get up)
Life's a journey not a destination
People go and try to burn me with no hesitation
Can't change, you can only change me
I ain't losing any sleep we ain't in the same league
Fans ain't buying albums anymore
'Cause everyone's trying to make singles
Stop trying to pop over night like a Pringle
I built a foundation, a real fan base
Anything goes (anything goes)

I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
I can't describe what I'm feeling
Ain't never felt this freedom (anything goes)
I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
Ain't never felt this freedom
Could you, could you say that

Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes (I say)
Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes

(Anything goes) yeah it don't take much convincing
To coax and to rope in
These hoes when coke's in the nose and
Girls acting like morons, face covered in makeup
Putting more on and more on
Maybe it's a fact that I'm a father to a daughter
But a lot of these broads act real fucking dumb
Don't get it wrong I enjoy having fun
But I know not to burn when I'm taking in the sun
Check the metaphors
I don't contaminate the reservoir
I stay pure over thinking 'til my head is sore
I see what I see, I know what I know
But yo, somethings got to give when anything goes

Anything goes
I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
I can't describe what I'm feeling
Ain't never felt this freedom (anything goes)
I got the world in my palm
Lights camera action it's on
Ain't never felt this freedom
Could you, could you say that

Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes (I say)




Anything goes, anything goes
Anything goes
