Apollo Brown – Longevity lyrics

[Intro]
That's 'Doctor' to you, sir

[Verse 1]
Deep as the Hebrew carvings on the side-walls of the slave ships
What was the gift that we gave then, if the gift was to cave-in?
There ain't no meat burning or cheek turning
You don't wanna speak when I teach the og learning
I just deliver the scripture, this is indeed sermon
I keep the heat burning
So from the tongue of the chosen spews kelvin
Watch the tail spin of the pale skin, oh well then
Express yourself then, thot
If the energy in my words could spark in the universe
The combination of letters, cash, spells me
Hell, the melanin in my skin makes me more than mankind
But human, a ghetto dweller, a jew man
Why does he feed this congregation?
Proceed to lead while the flock is in meager accommodation
He's eager for domination
The reason for all this hatred
They spending money in the hood, but the preacher [?]

[Chorus]
That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game

[Verse 2]
They say the good die young, well riddle me this
How am I still this good? Literally it's
Like I'm shadow boxing
I'm number one, I didn't have an option
I'm cooking beef like I'm cattle-prodding
Lady, get your baby 'fore I abort him
He old news, Bill Bonds, Mort Crim
I'm the headlines in my city limits
It's bedtime if I feel he trippin', strap well
If he isn't? My niggas is fully dedicated to semi-grippin'
And let the bitch blow like Billy Clinton
See, I'm the law where I'm from
With a lot of hard work and some practice
You're looking at what ya'll can become
I'm a legend and a staple, got my name off Rap
I ate off my words while others ate off Pac's
Now I got my Jews shining, where Adolf at?
I send you through a ring of fire just to tame ya'll cats
Killers

[Chorus]
That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game

[Verse 3]
I was raised off of "What up though?"
Jock me later, rise and fly with the cutthroats
We online, every man for they self
It's rec time, player 2Ks, one nine, a two-way shock creator
Who got next? Well, I got now
And I'm streaking with slashers
They all leaking, we crashing with glass cleaners
They stretch four like a Horseman
Cool 'cause I endorse it
So please protect the rim 'cause these shots above it'll scorch it
But I'm fortunate
Empower my people who help and repair the fortress
Sour diesel, this easel boy, I can paint you a portrait

[?] painted porcelain, thoroughly painted in Porsche'
Segregated misfortunes
We registered these torches with educated enforcement
Married to common sense of us, separate it, divorce it
Been on the move, play it cool while I make the money
I used to get my last, when I couldn't they tried to take it from me

That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
You ain't going nowhere
It's the hardest
That's my claim to fame
Longevity baby
Built in the game
