Late Night Rhyme (Vocal) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Ab]Late at night when I need to pass time,
sit in my record room
listening to rhyme.
A day of kids or kids in classes
leaves me burnt out
so I'll pass this recognition
of my tradition.
Searching for beats becomes
my mission.
Flick the switch and the feedback pops,
never swap my set for an iPad dock.
Select some wax from the stacked up racks,
survey the scene like I'm using
a map.
Pick the track,
put the wax on the platter,
switch up the bass for a sound
that's fatter.
Cans on ears and I'm ready
to roll
The year's 87, I know you got soul
Passing time as I nod my head
Interrupted by a child
that won't go to bed
Read another story, a glass of milk
Then back to the beats, the smoothest silk
The needle skipped,
it's in a run -out groove
Choose some more wax,
my mind's on the move
Classic cold chilling is the order of the day
Shan or Kane, can't decide which
way
Maybe it's better,
I just drop them both
Promise a wife, I'll
be down in a mow
From Project Hole to the
Mighty Roar
Beats are getting louder,
vibrate in the doors
Drop the needle in the neck, slice the
wax
The year's 89,
I take it to the max
Feeling the need
for an old school fix
To the back of the sack lies a
tune that fits
From Grandmaster Flash to the Funky 4
Tonight it's the cold crusher,
grabs me more
Weekday, weekend, that's what I need
Check my emails and
I've received
A note from Fantasic
with some brand new beats
Hit stop on the deck and pull out a sheet
Pen to paper, words to line,
every tick of the clock
and my rhymes refined
It grows like a shoot coming out of a seed,
germinating a funk, I nurture and breed
Take a pause, sit back in a seat,
the year's 83, I found the perfect beat
Nod of my head as I hear the door slam,
four hours in the room
when I had planned
To spend the evening
with my dearest wife,
instead select beats and pull out a slice
Impress no less,
double death fresh,
back to the beats to which I've
been blessed
So much choice so much to play
but when I write a rhyme
I shut myself away take a pause
Then select a tune hold no hostage
arrest the room arrest my mind so reminds
me why inspired to write
I'm on a natural high sit back
and pen the last line years
2012 the late -night rhyme
You got it!
