The 7th cut on Killer Mike’s and El-P’s Run The Jewels, Mike and El paint very different but very vivid pictures of their experiences while tripping heavy on some drugs.
[Verse 1: El-P]
You know I get loose, I'm a screw turned pro status
Never did shit but inflict this damage
Never met a word that I wouldn't like a weapon just brandish
Walk away, clown boy, vanish
Feelin' outlandish, chemicals soaked in my cabbage
Face numb, face off rap shit, straight no chasing that dragon
Sess to the breast plate, raised where the stakes break badness
Get a tracheotomy tap for talkback shit
Slow clap, do the running man, backflip
Light a flare in the road, I'm an accident
Limping into the light, I'm off axis
We got 808s to make cats piss, right on the rug where the cat sits
By the time this recording gets heard I'll be gone
With the dough from the jar plus mattress
Left a note on the fridge with a frowny face drawn
With a rope from its neck to the rafters
Not the most subtle way to explain
I'm a threat to the brain like a wool in the glass hit
[Chorus: Killer Mike]
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
(And I won't come down...)
[Verse 2: Killer Mike]
You know I get gone, I'm a goner
In the VIP of the club where they strip with a zip and a boner
Girl named Mary looking like a black Madonna
Tell me I can rent her but I can never own her
She's naked as the day that her momma first born her
And later on in the song, yeah, I'mma bone her
But that ain't the point, bro, please follow along, bro
God made a miracle: it rained in the room
Blowing marijuana smoke in a smoke-filled room
She leaned in my ear, said, "You ever did shrooms?"
I said, "I never did that and I never did you
If it come in a pack, baby, I'mma do two"
Last act of the pact, Mary Mack do it too
"If you agree to the terms we can do what it do"
She said, "It is what it is" and we did what we did
Right before we popped 3 caps and 3 stems
She popped that molly, rocked my body, I fly high and my co-pilot
Psilocybin got me slidin', slippin' into another dimension
Me and this woman made love in Kemet
Traveled to the moon, came back when we were finished
Fell to the earth, lost each other
Died and we came back sister and brother
In that lifetime, we couldn't have each other
So we killed ourselves and it killed our mother
True romance in one lapdance
I was in my future, my present and past
[Chorus: Killer Mike]
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
I get so hi-i-i-i-igh, I close my eye-eye-eye-eye-eyes
Like I may die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie, die-ie-ie-ie
(And I won't come down...)
