Prelude To A Murder with Lyrics

Prelude To A Murder by Add-2

I got the feeling that I’m bout to make a killing
…like a hitman when he hear his phone ringing
empty space rap, i make these motherfuckas feel (fill) it
they will never touch my flow like the ceiling…they dont get it
but my delivery better than UPS
PS…when I write letters I know who I address
I’m going postal like Karl Malone alone in the post, protools
recording vocals of this old soul no old shoes
staying on my toes cause im on these bitches heels like
6 inches pumps or… jack and jill
got bills on my mind like a 59 Fifty
or a Buffalo fitted, please dont get Capped
i’ll put you on your ass like swallowing four 5ths fast
the scoreboard say you should forfeit fast,
give it up like orphans i kill it like abortions baby
-wont see sections (C-Sections) cause I won’t leave a portion
now tell me who important? let me know like informants
kill em in the night so in the morning they’ll be mourning
like alonzo, tryna cover I with no blind fold
on the road to riches like kanye i drive slow
might HIT some fine hoes but never let em CRASH
fly like peter pan but neverland will never last
so while you thinking bout starting i’m think bout retiring
cause get in is easy hard part is getting out of it
the exit door aint usually there
so when the music stops, im taking your spot like its musical chairs
Watch the throne, watch your home, watch your house, watch the stones
keep an eye on your lips watch your mouth, watch your tone
you talking to a titan, throwing lightening from the sky
what i write is kinda frightening when i strike em niggas die
like 10 pins down, with 1 pen, your spirit rise like an incense cloud
stay in the crib like where your infants found
ask around they saying I’m hot or I’m cold
no wonder why the devil try to plot on my soul
you such a rainbow you followed by a pot full of gold
I’ll leave a jackass dead on the side of the road
now you’re done like Ryan Dunn, while i’m shining like the sun
you might win some but you just lost one
uhn you lack loyalty, I’m rap royalty
my views Langston Hughes its black poetry…

Some new music. Produced by my homey Sundown of Actual Proof. Be sure to pick up their new project “Still Hotter Than July” which is set to drop 7.26.11. Lyrics down below for all the hip hop heads

Iron Mic by Add-2

Fuck practice, know I’m still rhyme out of this atlas
map this, only nigga still rocking like Lenny Kravitz
or Slash, im on fire like tips of lit matches
cats with broke minds lack sense, pay attention like you owe it
throwing change like I made a wish with it
my mind got a cold so they say I’m sick witted (sick wit it)
been at it since Mike Tyson was hitting on Robin Givens
so niggas lost one like Riddick, Bowe
I’m writing as if my life is depending on what im penning
bright idea dimming, causing a pandemic
smacking em open handed infact I’m pouring the powder they
eyes blacker than Howard homecoming in a power outage
my drive got me getting hella mileage
that kid smart no doogie howser, steal your princess like im king bowser
reign over rappers like a spring shower
my hands still counting digits like counting hours
making paper like trees til I drop like fall leaves
the only guy you hear like Aaron Hall lead
Nigga please, who’s better than I
my level will sever your pride, Im where the devil resides
I’m hell hot, made hell stop, satan was shell shocked
bringing, my baggage to every flow like a bellhop
got problems, prayed they gimme a break like Nell Carter
Told God and he told me shut the fuck up and work harder
my name is ringing bells, ding dong ditch at deaths doors
no..wife, life is a bitch mixed with a thick whore
she’s fucking everybody what the fuck you think I met her for?
What a metaphor, bottom line like an underscore
your shit garbage, straight non-sense, just stop it
only collab we doing is your dollars and my wallet
staying in my pocket like a quarterback
could of swore your whore was a linebacker how she go to sack
yea the rap bully back, better steer clear
punks hearts pump fear when they hear that I’m near…
I keep my eyes open, scoping the scene,
zoning, blowing some steam
strolling the street like steam rollers,
rolling to Prem, more dope than a fiend
who rolling some preamo, know I’m supreme til I’m known as the King
swimming with sharks this shrimp should’ve been sea food
where the G’s pushing more keys than geeks do
even on a good night they might put you to sleep dude
goodbye’s how they greet you…bye bye
its a cold cold world on the southside
you got heart til you see your insides on the outside
