10000 Pax
Santhosh Narayanan Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Woo!
(I′ma uh) what's a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) then a legion
(I′ma uh) what's a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) now a felon

Call me Brando, Tommy Guns and Lambos
Afro in the Bando, profit is the plando
Catch me seated in the land of opportunity, I grab 'em
Take me off this handcuff
Peace is what I stand for but we′re callin′ this a standoff

Back in the day I was just tryin' to survive
Now we′re moonwalkin' stages feelin′ alive

(Da da ya da) 10,000 Pax
Stay to your back, throw it back up (throw it back, throw it back, throw it back)
10,000 Pax, this time for lights, camera action (action, action)
10,000 Pax, stead your back, throw it back up (ya da, ya da, ya da)
10,000 Pax, this time for lights, camera action (ya da, ya da, ya da)
(Ya da, ya da, ya da)

Uh, that's a mighty fine switch up
Two moves ahead, this is chess and you′re the bishop
Drop a foot in the door, then it's fire in the hole
Blow the roof off the industry, enter my militia

(I'ma uh) what′s a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) then a legion
(I′ma uh) what's a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) now a felon
(I′ma uh) what's a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) then a legion
(I′ma uh) what's a gangsta?
(Uh, uh, uh, uh) now a felon

Back in the day I was just tryin′ to survive
Now we're moonwalkin' on stages feelin′ alive

10,000 Pax, stead your back, throw it back up
10,000 Pax, this time for lights, camera action (ya da, ya da, ya da)




Stead your back, throw it back up
This time for lights, camera action
