OPIO - The Grassy Knoll lyrics

(feat. Planet Asia)

[drumroll]

"Who am I, I woulda done the same thing.

I don't wanna get shot either."

C'mon!

[Opio]

Warning, out to bake, about my cake

Skinny not a glutton but the future's at stake

Make ya hand-shake harder than Jake LaMotta

So I can get an APM my neighbors can follow

The Hiero, emblem, official as Timberland

That's why the crowd roar like a RalliSport engine

Now pay attention, it's not about my automobile

It's the real, it's the prodigal skill

And I'm droppin it still, and I probably will

'til apocalypse come and they see you in hell

I'm, behind the wheel like "Taxi Driver"

Revenge on his mind and a strap beside him

But that's not an advertisement for violence

It's more the mindset, an abstract concept

One that I bond with against all odds

And not all talk, I play my part

[Chorus: Opio]

I got the best vantage point, I'm on the grassy knoll

Watched it all unfold, man the lies they sold

to you and you and him.. to all the people in front

and all the people in the back you was set up!

I won't play the fall guy, or the eyewitness

So keep me out that circus, and keep mindin ya business

For my people speak the truth, man I just want justice

So follow one, two, three - c'mon!

[Opio]

You in a brand new sportscar, they in a scraper

Stomach growlin, they prowlin - WAKE UP!

Wait meet ya maker for goodness sake-ah

Face on the news, picture in the pap-er

This flesh and blood right, this ain't Hollywood

You really should keep your composure, and don't get sloppy

At the bar, ten shots of Courvois'

And didn't see the baracudas glarin at you - costly

Now there's pandemonium and mass confusion

Cause what he holdin in his hand came from a action movie

(Ohh wee) Nigga Steven Seagal

When you see the revolver, you givin it all up

The master card for the keys to your car

To the core and MC's hymns, you subordinate to them

People livin in squalor, you might not see tomorrow

You got a brand new life chillin under ya collar

[Chorus]

[Planet Asia]

Overseas, we twist tobacco for rizzlers

Me and Opio, that's like Capleton and Sizzla

The backwoods Swisher from the sack that I twist up

The mack with a pistol in the Cadillac pickup

Revolutionary with his wrist up; complex but

I'm simplistic, talk shit like my Soul is Michief (yeah!)

Instrument, spit MPC-6

Opio part of the history of artists who conduct business

So what I'm basically sayin is

you need to pay a lil' more attention to the niggaz that was lacin me

Nowadays I yoke mics like Royce Gracie

In front of thousand and thousands of Ben Franklins

All day we in pursuit of the cash

It's all bad, if you ain't affiliated with the staff

We made it, to the top and we graduated

as pioneers yeah now we all animated

[Opio]

C'mon! [echoes]
