Artist: CL Smooth Album: American Me Song: Smoke in the Air Typed by: OHHLA Webmaster DJ Flash [Intro] We gon' take it to the streets now CL Smooth Back harder than ever [CL Smooth] I been in this game for years, it made me a animal I come from nothin at all to more than I can handle And passed through with flying colors In the back page article, to see my face grace them covers You see the birth of a real gangster, taste it, smell it Flip it and sell it and live it to tell it This is my theme music to enter, squeeze 'til I'm empty CL pop on now, crowd in a frenzy I harness that energy, and bring it through them sets where they really spendin some paper, like who's on the Mets This is franchise taggin, when I switch the shoes on the wagon See me cruise through the block, slow laughin Blinky's on cock, runnin 'round here thinkin they can bite me I'm the man that you be takin too lightly~! And not afraid to get filthy, you fail to recognize how they built me 'til the judge say "Corey Ben, not guilty" [Chorus] Put your hands up {*3X*} High, high, high, high, high [CL Smooth] Then comes the time when you can't fake it, you can not mistake it CL'll hurt somethin, you ain't heard nothin I can bang 'em out stuntin, or lay up in the cut and pick the brains of some old heads on who got what I need no introductions; if all I got is soldiers in the street waitin for instructions - I'm pressin buttons While my comeback is so climactic It always keep them ladies on the track like it's Danica Patrick Automatic the six-shooter, dependin on how dirty I do ya We can go around ya or come through ya Have no respect? Let 'em see me step to my biz You know what it is, my broad say they just kids but whatever - better get your little act together Can't stand heat or crack under pressure Here's the truth, when all I really show is the proof It's why CL just come through and raise the roof - listen! [Chorus] [CL Smooth] Smoke in the air, guerillas in the mist Same time you watch house money, dangle from my wrist All I got is action and murder, and plots you can't solve When it comes to family busines, you don't get involved Haters say I'm chasin the past, say it won't last But on the low you know they know I got the game on smash Burn blocks down and post up, the most wanted All I do is feel up straight dimes and peel hundreds What a life huh? I'm set, now maintain the vet Or catch a bad decision you will soon live to regret Cause I'm not here to fit in, I'm here to get right in This is a takeover, rap needs a makeover A new President; the same time to your face all who still (don't) know how to take it with intelligence CL in the spot, the fans give it all they got I start from the bottom and rise to the top - listen! [Chorus]
