Tribute Lyrics

    music: sexton; lyrics: hexum/martinez

    This one is dedicated to the excitable ones
    Not the possums playing dead messing with my head
    "x" amount of action, "x" amount of games
    For years again i tell you the same, ooh ooh ooo

    Gone already to the bored of it all type, lingo
    That i'm seein every single night i'm out
    Bustin' head for it but your's gets busted right back
    Lip split and, i messed up but i got back tryin'
    Don't bother lying 'bout constant dissapointment
    But the fun in the hunt so quit actin' on a front
    You're unmotivaded you're sorta faded
    But the remedy is not so get on with what you got

    Remember "lady of guadelupe"
    The times my mother made mole
    After mass we would get home
    The girls running to the phone
    And i'm in my bedroom the 45 on my record player
    Was "we're in this love together"
    At the time i never realized how songs haunted
    The ones that i heard i played because i wanted
    Drawing on my wall from time to time coolin'
    Making creatures come alive with no schoolin'

    When i'm on the microphone
    The method that i make is much patience
    The method that i make is much patience
    I wait for the beat and then i make sense
    I'm comin' in hot forgot you definitely got no clue
    I'm comin' in hot you got you definitely got so rude
    Boy actin' coy but you got nuts like almond joy
    I tell ya this is a tribute

    No one looks as foolish as the excitable ones
    But then again there's no one has as much fun
    "x" amount of action, "x" amount of games
    For years again i tell you the same, ooh ooh ooo

    Once i met a man who made nearly no mistakes
    He would never bet on a longshot
    Never bet on a break and
    He's condescending and talks gossip galore
    But the dude was definitely such a bore
    Hear me now i messed up but i got back trying
    Don't bother lying 'bout constant dissapointment
    But the fun is in the hunt so quit actin' on a front
    Yeah, unmotivated you're sort faded
    But the real man is not
    The one hiding behind the gunshot, boom!

    Time travelin' through my memory
    There's a younger doug gazin' at the galaxy
    Space trippin' vato of the stars
    Searchin' for ufo's from neptune and mars
    Ode to an alien i know you're out there
    Cosmic lonely heart tell me if you care
    I'm listening for your sound, here on the ground
    I'm listening for your sound, here on the ground

    When i'm on the microphone
    The method that i make is much patience
    The method that i make is much patience
    I wait for the beat and then i make sense
    I'm comin' in hot forgot you definitely got no clue
    I'm comin' in hot you got you definitely got so rude
    Boy actin' coy you got nuts liek almond joy
    I tell ya this is a tribute

    I'm vexing many mofos but i'm wishing you the best
    I keep 'bout half my lyrics and i throw out the best
    Cause fly on by, you can if you want
    The method that makes sense is patience
    Hear me now i messed up but i got back trying
    Don't bother lying 'bout constant dissapointment
