Madlib & defari Lyrics
Jump to: Line by Line Meaning ↴
Y'all won't believe this tonight, see
Everybody think Hollywood is what you read, hear about
And it's a drag, it's rough out there
Cause see you got a lot of phonies out there (ay, roll that up man)
Everybody wanna be a star
Ay, Madlib
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Defari Heru, nickname Money Morten
In the seal grey Porsche and a Gucci bucket sportin'
Venice Beach glasses looking like two hundred dollars
Ay, I'm ghetto swap meet, but a well-known scholar
King told me, Cousin, just let the top drop
This summer when it's hot, ay, we're both gon' squat
Holla, holla, holla, like that dude on Chappelle
And no time, no era has Defari ever fell
Off like a light switch in the down position
I be spitin', I be shitin', any beat I be pissing on
I just devastate that y'all piece of a hater
I can feed your horse mouth cuz I got a haymaker
I walk through the street like a tiger in the jungle
Keep all lose change, but prefer tight bundles
Of carrots that can fill up the Sepulveda Tunnel
OD from a keg, from a 40, or a funnel
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Defari Heru, nickname Nat Turner
On probation, had to get rid of the fat burner
But believe when I'm off, Imma get him then I got him
I can dump at a chump with a life threatening problem
Mr. Defari, nickname thorough bread
Tell a chick take her time, give me thorough head
I blaze any stage, any crowd I amaze
I'm a star, so in the sky don't have to gaze
Love being free, fuck countin' the days
Soul brother to the grave, Frankie Beverly and Maze
I roll with the black like sharks roll in a packs
But I don't roll with cats that try to hold us back
Many, many flights, many tours, many nights
Still never drank Coors, still never snort white
I check cheese, cheese don't check me
I'm a muthafuckin' G for the Gs, ask EV
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
Yup, so this is what y'all wanted, huh?
That Likwit shit, huh?
That Likwit... shit, huh?
Madlib
Your boy, Defari
Likwit Crew from the cradle to the grave, yeah
Big shots to all Dilated Peoples crew
Expansion Team Soundsystem
Likwit Junkies crew
Ay, Swift
Yeah boy, it's what I'm talking about
Likwit forever my nigga, yeah that
It's good to be back
Returning to the music scene is a positive experience
Y'all won't believe this tonight, see
There are surprising events happening tonight
Everybody think Hollywood is what you read, hear about
The perception of Hollywood is often based on rumors and gossip
And it's a drag, it's rough out there
The entertainment industry can be challenging and difficult
Cause see you got a lot of phonies out there (ay, roll that up man)
There are many fake people in the industry
Everybody wanna be a star
Many people aspire to be famous
Give me them dice, I don't roll snake eyes
I take risks confidently and avoid failure
I don't roll with fake dudes, I don't roll with fake guys
I don't associate with insincere individuals
Gamble on ya boy, it's a sure shot bet
Investing in me is a secure and promising choice
I'm the best of the vets, I'm the best in the West
I am highly skilled and respected in my craft, particularly in the Western region
Defari Heru, nickname Money Morten
