Flawless Crowns
Raekwon · Other Songs - Raekwon
Uh... lay back.. word up, just bless 'em
With the bulletproof... more cases for ya eyes...
[Raekwon:]
Flawless crowns, sevens, bags of black
We kill industry niggaz and build maps
High powered money, blimps with emblems
Pimps, all of my hoes'll spray you under the tints
Yeah, car shows with cases, writing niggaz out in the Beacon
Down in the antics, Lex, you should take it
Wide world of sniffers, spiroglyphics, caesers and blue eagles
I'mma make my music the business
And now for the record, I'm on niggaz, go head, ditech it
I'mma leave you left, freezing and naked
Silverback gorillas, taught to bite tongues out faces
Fleeing in clubs, fly in something silver
Catch me with the Germans, hard body dealing with hard white
Dominican complexion with some hard ice
Can't nothing rock me, I'm legendary
[Outro: Raekwon]
What, what, what, what, what, what, what, what
It's on you bitch... word up...
Back to that ice rocking shit
The muthafuckin' good sneakers on
With the persian muthafuckin' scarfs hanging on
Catch me flying in that muthafuckin' XO
It's on, with the shit on the other side
The steering wheel on the other side, my nigga
You know what it is, it's going down
Cuban Linx man, Part 2, The Purple Tape
It's on, thoro, do it...
Flawless Crowns
Raekwon's 'Flawless Crowns' stands as a testament to his mastery of the East Coast hip-hop sound, blending intricate lyricism with a gritty, atmospheric production style characteristic of the mid-1990s era. While not part of his seminal 'Only Built 4 Cuban X' album, the track exemplifies the raw energy and technical precision that defined his solo career alongside his work with The Wu-Tang Clan. The song reflects the period's focus on street narratives and complex rhyme schemes, showcasing Raekwon's ability to maintain high energy while delivering deep, philosophical content. It remains a significant piece in the catalog of his discography, illustrating the evolution of his voice and the enduring impact of the Wu-Tang collective on modern rap.
