Trees and Dirt (feat. William Elliott Whitmore)

It's like that on the front porch Blazing a torch drinking a nightcap Might rap might pick up the axe and start thrashing and noodling Either way you know it sounds fat Stomp clap kick a hi hat or a cowbell With a green thumb and a brown belt Down until the end of my days I got stability Given to me by the trees and the dirt Three years ago on New Years Day I ate a mushroom then walked into the woods The trees told me something and to this day I've been learning a lot about the way of the world I got them squirming a lot because the weight that I curl Is steady growing exponentially Not to mention we are buying up property Land Because we ought to be breaking up monopolies yo Let the horns blow Remember when we used to hide the sauce in the corn rows One block away from the treehouse that we built With our own hand because that's what our fathers did Four generations deep where we live And spent the whole time steady digging in the dirt And what did they accomplish Handling biz and raising the kids that is here to save the Earth And that's word Busting through the silence is the sound that you heard Bang Like a bullet from a gun yeah we got guns Shotguns military ARs and glocks son No need to talk about it no need to boast I'd like to send a shot out to my people on the coast Bang For the haters and a pound for the clowns who's down To get dirty with the green and the brown So grab me a beer somebody get Will a whiskey Because the jam is so fresh yes my eyes are getting misty The bacon's getting crispy and the coffee's been on for an hour Get your ass up get in the shower Because we got work to do and that's cool That's what I'm here for There ain't nobody around here to shed a tear for Except for the natives that capitalism slaughtered Time to take it back Community trees dirt and water Everywhere that we go We got the heartland with us the world can't get us Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go Come and try and take the land where our family stands man Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go We got the heartland with us the world can't get us Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go Come and try and take the land where our family stands man Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt I see the sun coming up Over that Eastern horizon Such a glorious sight for these weary eyes After a long dark lonely night I'll put that dirt on a biscuit I'll put that dirt in my tea And when they fill that grave on the hill They'll put that black Iowa dirt over me There's only one way to find out where he keeps his hide out Saddled up the horse time to ride out it was night out Pass the tobacco took a bite out Would it be a home run base hit line ground or fly out Took a time out busted an old rhyme out His horse pawed the ground he took tequila and a lime out Belted one back chewed the fruit and felt the bite sting Dug his spurs in and aimed his nag toward the fight ring And on his way he pick up some compadres Whitmore the Strangler Angle and Doc Dawn Dre To name a few posse was huge a whole lot of dudes Whole crew do it death eat a lot of food Shot a dude in Reno just to watch his head spin Bite a deer's heart and look at you with a red grin Coming to the table with a napkin tucked in To his front collar because he heard the cook holler And ring the triangle like come and get it Did you take care of business he said don't sweat it The way he said it you just know he got deaded Probably hurt bad shot stabbed or beheaded Now it's time to celebrate the village has a hog roast Raise up your cups and listen up for the long toast Yeah another victory we see through the trickery and mystery And misery gets smoked like hickory Everywhere that we go We got the heartland with us the world can't get us Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go Come and try and take the land where our family stands man Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go We got the heartland with us the world can't get us Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt Everywhere that we go Come and try and take the land where our family stands man Everywhere that we go We got trees and dirt emcees get hurt
