Stand Hop Lyrics

Spoken:
Don't infantalize yourself when you're a grown woman!
So, um, this woman, she knows, three months before I'm gunna come to town:
No more shaving, and I appreciated that so much
I made a macrame lanyard bracelet and said, "Will you marry me?"
And she was like, "That's usually done with a diamond ring."

I said, "Some nerve! From the slum, then serve scum
Swerve into my bait and switch. The wait and pitch
Skate off the plate? The state gets rich
Badaboom badabling, bang. Forgot about that yin-yang thing-thang
It's the end of the ice age. Here's some sage advice:
Your forebears' warfare can't afford a 12 gauge
To wave around and threatend with
They're chopping fists and getting dissed in Sierra Leone
The mountain of lions recounting the times when
Compressed carbon shot up kimberlites for a fountain of diamonds
For your million dollar Wonderbra, ironic ready made

Take a lick and taste the iron made in machete blade
Get thee to a nunnery! Don't give son a reason
To run thee out of country to Hungary

Eastern bloc, Budapest:
If beats could talk, this one would say this stuff
Plus you the best
Aw, you're embarrassed. You flash your pearly whites
You want it to be an early night
You wanna hit the hay but I got shit to say

You've traveled the world, you're suppposed to be worldly, right?
The editor in chief is a predator and thief
So it's not in his interest to settle the beef

We save strength by sharing a wavelength

Diamonds derive from autumn moss
Like adamantium in Wolverine
And it's just one phase of pressured carbon
Like buckminsterfullerene and graphite
That writes gems that can never be stolen
While diamonds are jewels to which kings are beholden
Yet the difference between them is just electrons' alchemy!
I watched tower two from a window. My dad watched from his balcony
Year after that, I was rhymin' about diamonds
Two months later, I was shocked by the time
When big bro demanded a ring that had been secretly locked up
For the woman he'd knocked up
I guess he wanted to pay for the milk in her bra cup

Carrier pigeons, we're carrying birds
No ring -- a barrier to marryin' words!
There's not a Hindi that's living
This type of Indian giving:
Give back the ring from mom's wedding?
You've got to be kidding

De Beers is just as it appears
A shadowy entity that never clears
Less than to the n-th degree
With Eamon as their spokesmodel
Reppin' for her folk, broke like a Coke bottle
Free enterprise is lies
Once it's centralized
Call off the battalions
For the human bullion and
The galley of galleons

Hip hop stopped dropping gems
When it stopped copping black medallions
Stallions? You deserve to be force fed
The horse head whose blood courses through your bed

You're weak, like no power stealing
Roy Cohn assist the Keyfauer(?) hearing
Then go home with boy zones and flower earrings

I'm no authority, but your razor cuts horribly

So which one is it?
Carat or cut?
You ground down that stone
To a nub, and for what?
Why not mount it in its natural assymetry?
Who says it's better in prismatic geometry?
Devalue the Bali(?) who have rocks in lunch boxes
I have a hunch they join country clubs to hunt foxes
Anyway, diamonds are a dime a dozen
Compared to the crimes against Muslims

Aren't artefacts gone to prove we're all cousins?
If I had my druthers, we'd all be called brothers
Like we did when our leaders were mothers
