[length: 04:21]
[00:14.93]These precious things
[00:18.23]All these things that we love
[00:21.68]All these precious things
[00:25.55]How they turn, how they turn
[00:29.15]All these precious things
[00:33.07]All these things that we love
[00:36.62]All these precious things
[00:40.51]How they turn, how they turn
[00:44.21]On me
[00:46.44]Never bite the hands that feed
[00:49.06]But when those same hands grab the gats and up their sleeves
[00:52.72]They gather traps and apparatus for your grave
[00:56.52]They catch you lackin’, rap around yo’ hatch and squeeze
[01:00.33]I swear my hands were pure, I gave ’em manicures
[01:03.91]Became my adversaries, became my sabateurs
[01:07.57]I put karats on them just like rabbit lures
[01:11.32]My middle finger’s like, “Fuck this nigga, what happened to us?”
[01:15.24]Used to be clappin’ for us, thumbs up and then snappin’ poets
[01:19.03]Now they be dappin’ fo’s and grabbin’ Moet
[01:22.28]And they know that I don’t drink, at least I don’t think
[01:25.65]I asked for peace signs, they gave me Leon Spinks
[01:29.19]I asked for “okays”, I got, “uh, yours” and “go aways”
[01:34.14]Shoe gestures and throat slicers, the motion’s made
[01:37.69]Give me a sign when we can talk through a plan
[01:40.87]But my hands was like, “Fam, you can talk to the hand,” damn
[01:45.08]And these precious things
[01:48.18]All these things that we love
[01:51.70]All these precious things
[01:55.63]How they turn, how they turn
[01:59.57]All these precious things
[02:03.26]All these things that we love
[02:06.56]All these precious things
[02:10.62]How they turn, how they turn
[02:14.34]On me
[02:15.43]Who put the arms in arms?
[02:16.87]I put arms in palms
[02:18.21]We was hand in hand, Allstate
[02:20.55]Pinky speaker, thumb receiver how we used to call make
[02:24.38]All shakes
[02:25.14]Now it’s fingers crossed over small stakes
[02:27.89]No taller than the crawl space
[02:29.75]Give scissors to my paper, we not on the same page
[02:33.37]We was back catcher and pitcher, now you don’t even wave
[02:37.31]We used to throw the shock at Honolulu from the stage
[02:40.78]Now you just wanna throw hands and technicals on my plays (goddamn)
[02:44.97]And these precious things (yeah, yeah)
[02:48.19]All these things that we love
[02:51.71]All these precious things (these precious little things)
[02:55.80]How they turn, how they turn
[02:59.22]All these precious things (yeah, yeah)
[03:03.39]All these things that we love
[03:06.96]All these precious things
[03:10.72]How they turn, how they turn
[03:13.93]On me
[03:14.45]It’s like you could’ve done more than try and keep us out them handcuffs
[03:18.50]It’s like we only matter when fans is putting they hands up
[03:22.21]You got popular, treated us like the Yakuza
[03:26.14]You was Vampire Hunter D, now you Alukah
[03:30.20]See that’s the thing ’cause we was praying for you
[03:32.94]Air guitar and playing for you
[03:34.42]You turned a deaf ear to what we was saying to you
[03:37.67]We was here, can’t go back to before
[03:40.61]The problem is, you don’t use us to right the raps anymore
[03:48.23]Yeah (yeah)
[03:52.62]Precious, precious, precious, precious
[03:57.03]Things that we love
