Jill Scott, Tierra Whack - Norf Side (feat. Tierra Whack)

C'mon, check one, two, check one, two It's a-, it's a-, it's a Thursday And I left my blues in the back of the second drawer In my night-stand, uh I'm too busy giving sounds, paprika ya taste My, my, oh Jah, I'm so high, listening to Preemo vision I add a whole woman of grace in every color Every spectral prism, yeah Go 'head and say that twice Every bar that I spit is from living in light, she nice You think I don't see it? My glow shines from the solar-Plex of my being Uh, she sweet and she tough I could give you my all, but is it ever enough? They stay chatting about my body on IG Say I'm a mean bitch, I'm in the Illuminati But ain't nowhere near 'round here When I write these songs, when I like my spliff When I raise my son, atone for my sins When I stack my papes, when I deal with these men None of them could ever be me J-I-L-L S-C-O-T-T In the place to be, Norf Philly, baby It's a Thursday, and I left my blues in the backseat of an Uber Hollywood or hallelujah, I've been seeing right through you These bars are nasty, why I'm spitting them out And once I tell you my price, won't take no different amount Okay, I think I finally figured it out I am the greatest, always and the latest like Lauren So pardon my arson (bars) I don't bargain with peasants, pleasant surprise Rapping better than you guys, despise me? You should let me be your guide, I'm high Loaded like potatoes, so poppy like mayo Want a hoagie, you imposter, rigatoni The top is lonely, but I never feel alone After all this time, they done made so many clones The Almighty, I'm winning 'cause God likes me Most likely surviving with the sheisty Turn me to a maximum, White men, I'm stackin' 'em Living like it's Golden, me and Sheila go Platinum Pray and obey to the W-H-E-K, I'm here to stay Norf Philly all day Well, it's a consequence to being this dope I let them tell it, some get after what they want Some sit jealous and talk shit, ain't got a pot to piss They be pissed, they ain't loved like this (true) And it's so true, Philly Jilly is lethal To the all the boxes, they be trying to put a queen into I can't be rich and cool? I can't be fly and smooth? I cuts with the syllables, linguistically edible Give griot to intelligent freaks, I wax poetical Inevitable, I transform into me Jill Scott, Grand Dame Queen Beast Norf Philly, baby Norf Side Norf Side Norf Side I just wanna give a shout-out to DJ Premier Yo, I love you, baby (Norf Side) Thank you, Tierra Whack Thank you for-, F-O-west and with the girl You know I love you for-, get on side (Norf Side) Each and everywhere (Norf Side)
