Locked and Loaded

from Storytelling ep by Fres Thao

/

lyrics

Freeze frame, let me edumacate these weak brains
When the DJ flips the switch and the fader
Gets the beat booming like the big bang theory
Lock and loaded lock locked and loaded with a handful of ammo
Grip the handle, flip the channel, turn the volume up

If the nights right, then we bound to make you bounce
Fres on the mic, on the tables shortround


I step on the stage with the swagger of a staggering fool
Acting the cool one got some loose screws

Fed up, yea, but we headed towards bliss

With the death grip on the vinyl mat slips
gotta bad itch, so he scratch with the tips


And for breakfast we’d eat baby back ribs
But lack of finances and lack of cabbage

Makes this rapping - makes this scratching
Makes the passion, seem ever lasting

Digital feed back, error syntax
Keep you in the loop like a noose as your necklace

Give the respect and get the respect kid
Get the message or leave with a fat lip

Starving artists and we’ll give you 3 minutes
Causing ruckus shortround on the mix


Yo, I get my fix on, (is this kid on drugs? - shortround)
In a bit son, I’m only getting warmed up

Maneuver like a blue bird in the blue sky
When the crusaders meet – situation do or die

An un identi fied rhyming object of desire
Afternoon delight yea spark it with the fire

Rewire the explosives in the process
Getting nautious but never giving up kid

Sunny side up and no onions on the omelette
Use my gauntlets, toe to toe with these monsters

Locked and ready to go steady and focus
Options, never to fold, only to conquer

I’m the rock star on the third planet sun beam
Eating caviar like a fish in the stream

When the bboys and the bgirls dream
We dream in high deaf like 1080 p
