Tabula Rasa - MELLOWBAG, Freundeskreis

TYRON

Watch me appear on the field, my mission is to chill

I’n’I think 'bout the vibes and not about the dollar bill

I been busy on my rhymes, put some on a layaway

What makes me happy like caribbean carneval on labour day

I love my mama, the hip hop shit we kick is thick

And if you trip you jealous motherfuckers get the dick

'cause now we kick in the door, you never heard it before,

Raw battle reports is what ambassadors stand for,

Making rhymes not war, droppin' lines but don’t sniff 'em,

I’m chillin' with my man Max and Skou with the spliff an',

Reminisin' about the time the Phlow used to rock,

But '98 it’s mellowbag and freundeskreis to tie the knot,

Blowin' the spot — what — makin' hip-hop what it is

First’s supposed to be the fun then later comes the biz

That’s what it is when we droppin' part two

It’s undisputed rebel troops achieving victories for you

Yes for you and your people, queens and not cheap ho’s,

Commons not Deebos, true friends and not the fake bro’s,

In it for the love what is deviding us from many,

Breaking thru like Shaka Zulu for the heart and not the money

What 'dem wann' do for stop (pin) you

Mephisto can’t strike we down

The rebel (will) come through

What 'dem wann' do for stop you

When your’re under your meditation and look through

SKOU

We kick that progress report consort to make it happen

Set up forts in foreign lands expand for everlasting

The fam span across the atlas like diasporas

Escape from out the grasp ot the most wickedest captors

Hear the laughter of the Czars in the dark like Nabokow

Rebellion KOU d’Etat — shit is raw — cut they heads off

Those who were lost floss now living lavish

Destination be the pastures of the city of Nazareth

Catalyst the revolution move the troops from out pollution

Mobutu citizens get the boot right in they asses

Ambassador status bring the loot back to the masses

Who live like hostages, the system be abusive like the music business is

We exist in the abyss but images be marvelous like novelists

Picture this like hieroglyphics on the fines papyrus

The world is ours but is devoured by the hour

Spread the scripture like egyptians while the wicked spread the virus

Through the lies I realize the righteous bare my likeness

But they spite us so let the weak recite this

Sow my seed amongst the captives let the fleet complete the cypher

What 'dem wann' do for stop (pin) you

Mephisto can’t strike we down

The rebel (will) come through

What 'dem wann' do for stop you

When your’re under your meditation and look through

What 'dem wann' do for stop you

Mephisto can’t strike we down

The rebel come through

What 'dem wann' do for stop you

You could never ever out the fire we are walk (ing) through

MAX

Auf dem Kilimandscharo des Rapszenarios

Spiel’n wir das Business wie Supermario

Ob Popcenturios in HipHop Studios — was

FK is' furios wie Julio Iglesias

Ich ritt den trojanischen Gaul im Blendwerk der Hlle

Sah die Fulnis des Biz, blieb im Sattel wie Paul Schockemhle

Ihr nehmt Rap wie de-Pus-sis

Ich mahn' Plattenmultis wie Mullahs Rushdie
