Quiet - Old News Lyrics

I'm a boss, and that's some old news
Slavin' for this dollar shower power for my whole crew
Goin Jack Bauer for an hour for my old school
I'm bringing them a tap that's just sounding oh so new
And showing you everything I'm gonna do
Bringing you some written knowledge probably that's overdue
Like your library books from last year
Past due
Percy was persistent I listened now I'm way past truth
Take it out to college Mr. George got the focus group
Self-realization while we're naming off a chosen few
Selected from the nectar of the gods I'm exposing Zeus
Drum kit kid shootin' kicks in his lonely room
A holy goon, Underneath this holy moon
The world in a crisis seems to be my only news
But I guess that's why I'm here boo
Cause silence is exposing truth

Old news, old news, old news, old news
Just another day in the haze with my whole crew
We got old news, yeah
Old news, old news, old news, old news
City in a spiral we got nothing left to lose
Nothing ever changes here and nothing here is new

I'm out surviving by the river with my arrows in my quiver
Bracing for an evil winter better go and grab some dinner
Or a 30 rack of liver killer swimming in the river
Pinner on the lips with filler sounding way too damn familiar
Inner me is hearing all the shit surrounding on the news
Arsonists at home, drug dealers, and their goons
It's the city of Atlantis where we pray up like the mantis
But the debt keeps on expanding so we got nothing to lose.
High school hopes run amuck these days
Everybody saying that they'll leave this place
But when the hard times come they find a place to stay
Back home with a friend talk about an escape
A-typical issues you see in every habitual
Lack in size so we ritual over drugs for the spiritual
Since the high is residual
Can't avoid the eventual
So painful a visual
Your family's not missing you

Old news, old news, old news, old news
Just another day in the haze with my whole crew
We got old news, yeah
Old news, old news, old news, old news
City in a spiral we got nothing left to lose
Nothing ever changes here and nothing here is new

Beautiful women what I love to see
Especially when they f**k with me
But when you make your own problems don't run to me
One thing I don't need is redundancy
New house, new cars what we always see
From some people on a screen repping brand new fleece
I should bounce hit town to drink a couple drinks
With my people and my queen man that's all I need
Old news to us is what's flowing through the needles
Hero's turn to heroin, mayor they're good people
And these deacons reaching out preaching that we need the steeple
God forgot about us here though
Well that's how we're feeling
Lot of troops live here with their noble cause
People love to see them fight at local bars
But when the revenue they bring is where our focuses are
Then we'll support our troops to fix our local flaws.

Old news, old news, old news, old news
Just another day in the haze with my whole crew
We got old news, yeah
Old news, old news, old news, old news
City in a spiral we got nothing left to lose
Nothing ever changes here and nothing here is new
