Death
Flatbush ZOMBiES Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's a bird, it's a plane

New phone who dis?
New day, new bitch
Rang rang, there go my celly
Tattoos like Makaveli
Acid trip, this bitch I'm with
Might overdose like Anna Smith
Crip or Blood, 50/50 love
My nigga died for this handkercheif
ZOMBiE gang, A$AP
I eat the beat, and beat three
From CD to tape deck
LSD, some 'shroom tea
Two groupies and safe sex
Threesome, AM
Amen, Hallelujah
Hallow clipped it, hollows through ya
Backwood smoking, Goyard gun holster
Gucci sofas
Heard you was sending shots
I was too high to notice
Marijuana, I'm smokin' potent
My eyes are glowin'
My pistol loaded, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop, pop
Now you knowin'

Top of the buildin' and I got a feelin'
Sudden rush to the brain, so obnoxious the feelin'
Loyalty to the drugs, feelin' so high, high, nigga what?
Rolling with the clique, middle fingers up
Police on my dick, never gave a fuck
Always living trife, bitch you down to fuck?
Smoking on some shit, got your mama off
Never pretend, I gotta go get it this one is all
War love, got me to turn this off
Talkin' 'bout some money, we gon' get it solved
Talkin' 'bout some bud, we gon' smoke it all
LSD bitch, I'm off the wall
Throw your hands up if you wanna roll
On some new shit, baby this a new phone
Got some new packs in and some quick dough
Same nigga, dead niggas, 10-4
Rest in peace to my nigga, nigga, Yambo

Live long, long live, yeah I live long
Lance Armstrong, live strong
Yeah, did right and I did wrong
Okay, get high so I hit bone

Yeah, yeah
Yeah
I'm an activist
I cook crack with a dab of piff
Crystal meth, on an acid trip
I'm a G in coke, from trees to dope
I feed my coast, hit my line if you need a quote
It's a secret show, only speak it if you need to know
And you niggas, I don't need to know
Beat the beat 'til the speaker broke
I'm in the streets puffin' reefer smoke
Try to creep, let the Eagle go
Man I'm down for the drillin' of course
Man you sugarcane niggas is soft
Don't respect your jaw
Man, matter of fact, fuck the law
Double up, nigga, fuck the court
Been on it like a outlaw
Batman vigilante goin' southpaw
Might head to Miami for some time off
Came back to the city, hit the concourse
Man I'm livin' like a mob boss

I shake the game, refrain from permanent
My style compares rare like fiends that serve a nick
My goals can touch souls, my niggas impervious
My team go buck wild, sip Hen and smoke spliffs
Don't think I won't trip, cherish every moment
A nigga won't miss if he's very focused
All black, funeral, gettin' down with a bad one
Used to smoke two grams, now I'm smokin' mad blunts
Had extendo, niggas, 'cause they basic
Minds need replacement, thoughtless, conscious and tasteless
Ring a bell 'cause the aliens comin' down
If you say that shit is myth, my experience was wild
Man could run a mile while his legs are broken down
But Arc cook it up, tell shorty simmer down




It's amazin', how you niggas really feel about it
When it's top floor, ain't no room for more, bitch, it's crowded, mothafucka

[Intro]

[Verse 1: Juice]
(Zombie juice)
Spitting shit disfigured like ligaments
Picture the making of this my hands tied
Watch the smoke flow by by by by
On the porch Newports packs of the loud
New bitch packing the crowds
The mackin' spectacular is you fucking on nothing
Mmmmmm a little sumchin
Bitch you know I'm buzzing bumpity bumping
Packs in the back of Mach's truck n trunking
We up yet we slumping, Zombie fully function
Fu-fu-fuck corruption, lies vivid as Jenna's titties
Terrorist experiments, America's full of shit, uh
Blinded by skin color, blinded by his lover
Blinded by shining lights, and you the gift of life
Relax my mind 'til it's, do or die
Each moments a mineral, poetry's protein
The verse is a vitamin effects like codeine

[Hook:]
What ya gonna do when them zombies come for you
(Murder murder murder, kill kill kill)

(Meechy Darko)

[Verse 2: Meech]
DTA I don't trust none of my homies
Juice laced my spliff with PCP and never told me
Passed me a cup of bleach said Meech sip on this codeine
Wash it down with OE now I'm throwed up like OGs
My voice hold the beat down it's the anchor
And my nigga stay with the metal like Kurt Angle
Zombies blowing up like the Boston marathon BOOM
War too soon, opposite of late bloom
Dumped from the free throwin's, I was spewed from the womb
Survival of the fittest I ate my twin in the womb
And due to robbin' givings I may never jump the broom
And while you pay for pussy I was out in paid dues
Stage diving turned a couple thousand people to my pool
You a fool if you think I ain't on the move
I am it, I am new, I exude
But can I be reproduced as acute for my Grammy and my destitute?

[Hook]

(The Architect)

[Verse 3: Erick]
Spit in your face at the pearly gates
At 24 a nigga special like he 38
The limerick I kick is four finger ring
Shit I twist a mother fucker limbs up like a green spliff
Defying arts, no façade man my city like ahhh
So if this street on heat I'm never tryna be a boss
Rap induced have 'em used
When I scribe thought, quiet man
So if I can't stand then I'm gonna fall
I'd rather be a failure than never mentioned at all
The dimensions of the mind measure crime like yellow tape
Music the bass, swap my heart for an 808
You outta shape smoking great good God, like jay oh
Nostrils fill with the potency of smoking kief
All the windows down so you know it's me
Bow down My radiator hits like my Amy Wine Vinyl, For Now
