Red Birds Cry

{sub-bass swells} {dark string section intro} (hmmmm) (shhhhh) {filtered tape hiss}

Straight, silent, straight, violet Straight timeless hits,

it’s crazy to see The bullets curve when they come out the

clips

Straight silent assassin, tip If I die I’ll be rebirthed under the

mob list M.O.B.S.T.A come after the mob bitch Cross my heart,

hope I never die shit

{gritty boom-bap beat kicks in} This is what it sounds like when

red birds cry

(red birds cry) And Mr.

Goodfellas, start speaking, a cappella

What was the storm,

man, brothers and all The path to each other and tell us

to be calm This is what it sounds like when red birds

cry

{soaring brass hits} It’s a thin line between love and hate

Love is made by the fates

Hate comes when you can’t get love to take Then you find

out there was love for your cake

Then the body appears on the news

Backside fishing on the lake

{beat drops out slightly,

filtering effect} Miles the matter,

mines the matter

I’d rather double up and level

Then remember, as never

Only called as we came next

And looked on to be blessed

(to be blessed)

{orchestral swell} No tears my eyes,

on our tongue

Devil his lies thoughts,

concert battle Wise men saw,

spoken heart is broken down By the ties that we carry for

my past Never to hear

{piano solo outro note} This is what it sounds like when red

birds cry (red birds cry)

(so

silent) {strings fade out} {vinyl crackle stops}
