Acid Raindrops (Live Version)
Written by: Michael Turner & Christopher Portugal
[Thes One:] Come on out here, brother… come on out here…
[Double K:] I know y'all been waiting for this shit… We gotta save the best for last, you know what I'm saying? I wanna smoke a blunt with each and every one of y'all. Lemme see that…
[Thes One:] L.A.! L.A.!
[Double K, with Thes One on the help out:] (Yo!)
I try to keep it stress-free, take everyday at a time
Make sure my family's in place, and let the music unwind
I got plans to take charge like a major outlet
Ride around the country chilling in my L.A. Express
On every street corner, the importance of having fun
Empty bottles, Phill tobacco, don't nobody carry guns
We keep our minds on fun, and let the drums do the banging
On any given day, like Mr. Cooper, yo, we hanging
Under the blue sky, to stay laced in smog
Pollute your quarter-inch cables with all the sound that we brought
Can't get enough, so brother, pass another cold one
Feel like a dad at a ballgame, lamping with his son
Chuck D, y'all, word up, we bugging overtime
From the light to the lime, original Star Time
It's the Double, Chris One, and L.A. brought the ammo
So we can shoot game like thugs on your sport channel
Take off the do-rag, replace it with a thinking cap
If they didn't know, then tell the bro, he shoulda known that
We here for one thing, and that's to remain
So what's the name, n-n-name, n-n-name, name, yo!
[Thes:] When the stress burn my brain just like acid rain-
Mary Jane is the- yo, chiiiiiiiiiiiill…
You see what happens when you smoke weed?
[Double K:] Yo…
[Both:] When the stress burn my brain just like acid raindrops
Mary Jane is the only thing that makes the pain…
Uh, let the weed take over your soul, body, and mind
[Thes One:] Don't do that!
[Double K:] Kick back… yo, Thes One, who's this one for right here, man?
[Thes One, with Double K on the help out:]
Yo, L.A., hit me one time, make it funky
Double-down on my underground sound, I'm feelin lucky
For this jackpot, I jack spots to fill up my crates
We laid back, chilling, and feeling the music relates
We on the one to the two, hanging with my crew
Bullshitting while we sitting down, drinking on some brew
And 'til the afternoon turns to the moonlight
Funky tracks and nickel sacks, freestyling all night
Doing it right, knowing we're tight, and music may get better
My crew banging through blocks like shots from a Beretta
Blows with the hos with problems, I suppose
Honey, you gotta understand: your man's got flows
And he's leaving you, so By the Time I Get to Phoenix
Underground heads'll fiend this musical genius
Transglobal, by the books, like Barnes with Noble hooks
Armed with talented guests, so real, shouldn't be your bless crooks
Who steal loops and keep this shit alive
Something for your troops to sit around and vibe by
For y'all, Double, and Thes to ease stress
We 'bout to hip hop, have fun, god bless
[Double K, with Thes One on the help out:]
When the stress burn my brain just like acid raindrops
Mary Jane is the only thing that makes the pain stop
Let the weed take over your soul, body, and mind
Kick back relax one time and you will find
[Thes One:] If you know the words… if you know the words…
When the stress burn my brain just like…
Mary Jane is the only thing that…
Let the… take over your soul…
Kick back, relax one time, you will find
When the stress burn my brain just like acid …
I let the weed take over my soul, body, and mind
Kick back, relax one time, you will find
We have fun, fun, fun, fun, fun
[Both:] Fun, fun
[Double K:] Say it!
[Thes One:] Fun, fun, fun… We have fun!
[Double K:] Yo, yeah…
[Thes One:] We have fun! We have fun! We have fun! Fun! Fun! Fun!
Fuuuuuuuun!
[DoubleK:] Ay-yo, you seen what we done did to this boy, man. You see what we done did to the boy…
[Thes One:] Ay-yo, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on… hold on…
