Tick Tock (feat. TempestB)

from The Comeback Story - EP by DJ brimLo & Bavu Blakes

/

lyrics

Verse 1 - Bavu Blakes
Notice how time stand
When you running from an automatic weapon and it’s real
Or maybe you have no idea
But I can make it happen with this right here
Leave you laying on the street
Underneath beef
Can’t blame neither Meek Mill nor Chief Keef
They say guys don’t kill people, people do
But people can’t do what a street sweeper do
The president say terrorism is a thread
But terrorist haven’t hit this number yet
Been a decade and change out in Iraq
But right here in the states way more bodies stack
I got a nuke bomb in my living room
The irony’s killing me killing you
Most unfortunate element in hip-hop
Not a click clack
but a tick tock

Chorus - TempestB
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is winding down
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Don’t let your time run out

Verse 2 - DJ brimLo
Every Jay better cuff their Beyonce
Keep her on your arm
Out of Harms way
Every day in the hood it’s an arms race
Cause of if I show up with this by your mom’s place
Since I got it, they gotta go get it
As if the second amendment
Ain’t got no limits
Now if you want to come get me
Remake the wedding scene on New Jack City
Cause of what’s sitting in my living room
Coming soon
Impending doom
Cloud over town shaped just like a mushroom
Doesn’t take much to touch you
Feel the gloom
Lethal degrees heat these communities
With AKs and Uzis as WMDs
AKA a nuke bomb in my living room
The irony’s killing me killing you

Chorus - TempestB
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is winding down
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Don’t let your time run out

Verse 3 - Bavu Blakes
I don’t use drugs
But I got the bomb
So bulletproof all vans and soccer moms
Neither school kids nor teachers get left out
Blood shed wets everybody
It’s a death count
Let’s count bodies
Ten times 50
In just one city
Bust it get Busy
If not an automatic then a semi
When I blow up I take my whole hood with me
Can’t forget the burbs
The movies the mall
Til all y’all appalled and hold y’all applause
Violence is All-American, it’s been pop
Not a click clack, but a tick tock

Bridge - TempestB
Tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock
Don’t let your time run out

Chorus - TempestB
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is winding down
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Time is still ticking
Tick tock, tick tock, tick tock
Don’t let your time run out
