Looptroop Rockers Stains (feat. Mapei)
Stains,
stains
[Promoe]
I had on a pair of jeans that I been wearing ever since
my very early teens I wished the would never end
but it did and then it did i wish it never would have
started
but I'm getting ahead of myself beg your pardon
let me take you back to mid nineties
when I stole my cans before I did my piece
gas stations had cans in abundance
yours truly tried to be the man in the tunnels
cus that's how we went all city in my city
had no trains but we hit up public propert
and I guess we could have done it for democracy
but we did it for ourself it was Cos and me
a.k.a. Dhem IAK
remember when cops came driving down the cycleway
into the tunnel so we ran up on the top of it
and in our minds knowing that we wouldn't stop for shit
we came unto big muddy field feeling like we getting
chased in a movie but it's real somehow someway
i don't know how we got away but we did and we lived to
tell the story another day
next day in school I was the same old fool
but last night I might have been a king
they laughed at me but I knew something that they never
knew that's why I took pride in my stains
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory
[Mapei]
yo my man yeah
he pieces for peace kid
trooping through the night
I see him everywhere we live
in my world a terrorist his can is a gun
and he will surely bust a cap in your butt if you run
over him son
color concrete cus you know the city is rotten
f..ck a trend f..ck a hype
graffiti can't be stopped man
and I listen to Ziggy Marley
but people hardly 'member Ziggy and Dizey
they kept the walls busy
Krylon check Belton Auto-K check
pack ya flows skinny fat cap keep the po po vexed
we try to reconstruct something
why they trying to hustle artist for their own
government funding
just try to keep your heads bopping
throw it up whole car em
and bam from the top to the bottom go
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory

I recognize the stains seen the paint and the blood
remember us growing up you know the hate and the love
how we felt like outsiders so we created a club
like a secret society like we knew what was up
we would study the kings this is when puppet would burn
em
finally had our thing never seen the kids so determined
to make a name for themselves redefining the rules
cruise the city for new pieces and fight for their
crews
some of us made it out stronger others got caught up in
crime
some made their love their profession some sadly lost
their life
but we remember you forever and I'm proud to say
that we was part of something bigger we got stories for
days
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory
(stains)behind every stain there's a story
I been out in the rain then it's pouring
(stains)all through the night had to wait till it's
morning
I did it for the fame and the glory
remember my name I ain't never giving up
remember my name I'm forever getting up
remember my name I ain't never giving up
remember my name I'm forever getting up
