Atmosphere - Smart Went Crazy

Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Smart went crazy, truth went trendy
The story got lazy so I rewrote the ending
Manipulated the entry, more user friendly
Now a city full of painpills and tatooes defend me
I waver from the dead to the halfdead
Grey space between the fanbase and the crackhead
Sunset, sailboat set course for hell
A cross and a hammer, but you'll have to get some nails
Take credit, for anything embedded in the edit
As long as you meant it when you said it
And all of the kids laugh, when you admit that
It mighta been witchcraft that made my noose fit bad
Well I'ma act like I don't give a make love
Take what I got to teach everyone to break stuff
I'ma act like there's poison in the pancakes
And amputate the one that wasn't loyal with the handshakes
Proud to know ya, Minnesota missle
Never sold coke and I never had to hold a pistol
Civil and simple, but set the freakshow
Loose on the nipple, watch her whole fuckin titty ripple
It's why we battle, it's why we travel
It's why the mascott thinks that I'm an asshole
We made the team without puttin on a uniform
Smart went nuts and rode a unicorn through the storm

[Chorus]
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, where did you go now

[Verse 2]
Smart went crazy, kiss Ms. Daisy
Loved you when every day was christmas baby
Maybe we can take it back to the way we was
Still on some "what have you done for me lately"
No gravy if the base is porkface
Tourdates ate my big little brother's courtcase
Poor taste got passed up as gourmet
This beer is foreplay
We'll meet up at your place
I sting like a first divorce, or them first Newports
Whatever hurts you more
"You're headed for self destruction" been there, did that
kick back with the wrong angel to fuck with
Carve my charm into your arms
Fuck around, unravel this tall ball of yarn
Snuck round back to disarm the alarm
From the plantation to the reservation to the farms
And nobody knows where you'll end up
Only guarantee in life is death or a headfuck
Yea, you thought it was a set up, well guess what
Now you can catch up with the rest of my "Best Of"
I got a few blocks left before I reach my destination
And retrieve my breath
And god blessed every step I stole
Just to let me know, she wouldn't ever let me go

[Chorus]
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, but where did you go
Smart went crazy, where did you go now

Smart went crazy, the rubber band went snap
This goes to those that hold it down 'til I get back
Hold on to me, grow along with me
I don't know where I'm goin but I'll end up in your arms

"Lucy Ford" (a play on "Lucifer"), Lucy was originally a pseudonym meant to represent Slug's on-again-off-again girlfriend and mother to his son. Eventually "Lucy" became more metaphorical, evolving into a device to write about alcoholism/addiction, politics, guilty pleasures, hip-hop, and women in general

[dzmeikrantz]

lucy refers to alot of diff things besides his old gf.. its a metaphor for his political views, women in general, the hip hop "game".. many other things i dont kno if anyone other than slug himself fully understands what or who lucy is... but it is deeper than just one girl

[CDN7311]

[MrShfank]

@dzmeikrantz "Lucy" has absolutely nothing to do with a girl. Never did. Its alll 'bout the Hip Hop game.

@alarm741 & @dzmeikrantz

Best. Fucking. Answers. Ever. I totally think you guys hit the nail on the head as it were. I find it funny that people ask about this so much still. Even I figured this out after listening to a few songs. It's not hard to realize that Lucy encompasses a lot of people and things.

[devileyebrow1]

please dont go mainstream! the best rappers start to get fake when they go mainstream. look at emeneim.

[yimdimdocsum]

@sickkidreppin atmosphere doesn't rap. slug raps, ant produces=atmosphere.
