Atmosphere - Cuando Limpia El Humo Lyrics






[Slug (Beyond)]
Patterned around the thought and the will
We shattered the sound of perpendicular noise
Now gather 'round, blueprints to rebuild
On top of that, I found I'm gettin' sick of your voice
Retentive, the Earth makes me tend to introvert
And I've presented the worth of these kicks and this wrinkled shirt
Ingested verse for seconds and a big dessert presented
Thirst with sprinkles of dope indisbursed
When you burst, it won't be an accident
It'll be a worldwide web of heads takin' this shit back again
(6-1-2) Now find the emergency exits
'Cause I'ma snap a spine to make an example of the skeptics
(Atmosphere) I don't care if you know me or you hate me
Just come check out the show and travel back home safely
Lately, a weird thought occured to me
What if I was to grab the mic, which one of y'all would service me?
(Watch the rhythm) Inventions to rock the restless and kill your ego
Your whole karma's vibin' off the vex
It's best if you take a hard look at what you're givin' me
('Cause your name and your rank don't mean shit to me)

[Slug and Beyond]
Stars and Stripes are like cars and bikes
They're just vehicles you steer to ride other peoples fears
Stars and Stripes are like nails and spikes
They're just tools that you use against the physical rules

[Beyond]
Put down your weapon son [Slug talking]
Put down your weapon son
Put down your weapon son
Would you put down your weapon?

[Slug (Beyond)]
I heard a grip of little voices in a thousand heads
Calling me out of my rest to come and plow your steps
An elder once told me to always use precision
(Discretion and vision when you start the ignition)
'Cause any engine is highly delicate and what you got to say
Is irrelevant if you're talking for the hell of it
I smell some shit, check your sole, brotha
did you step in it, now who suffers from my control deficite?
I can't go out like you ('cause you lack dopeness)
I'll break your whole crew down to (a bunch of wack poets)
Shrapnel gets lodged under your clavicle
When your man exploded, Atmosphere concoctin' antidote shit
Fuck 'em and the record deal that they rode in on
When Shawn is in his vocal groove I come to choke your truth
Broke your screws now its open and loose and its ?
(Beyond came along and stabbed a DJ in the foot)
The spokes bend and buckle (and the wheel collapses)
There ain't no need to even ask whether or not you feel the Atmos
I'm peelin' back heads performing brain surgery'
And sewing 'em back up (There, now you've heard of me)

[Slug and Beyond]
When the smoke clears, you won't be able to choke tears
When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears [2x]

[Beyond]
Put down your weapon sir [Slug talking]
Put down your weapon sir
Put down your weapon sir
Put down your weapon

[Slug (Beyond)]
As I sit here with my head between my hands
Attention span focused on trying to read the plans
I can't shake the thoughts that it might be in vain
So I play the radio while I drive me insane
(I travel like the wind) I travel like Avis
I feel as if I've been to hell and back and I ain't even been to Vegas
Pages and pages of notebooks dedicated
To separatin' snake skin and amputatin' fake lips
(Underestimated) But when you heard me, your masculinity went girly
And your whole crew broke out early
(Self-preservated) Avoidance is the first choice
Calculated: Step the fuck away when you hear this voice
Moist, thats how we leave 'em rendered
Either the brain or the pubic region, depending on your gender
And if you're a female head (no disrespect intended)
Unless you step to me on the mic, you must be sheddin' your placenta
I wear the honor of an emcee's past
Where I wonder "Is this wasteland encased in cheap glass?"
Reflected to find the status where you stand
(You're just another victim with a mic in your hand)

[Slug and Beyond]
When the smoke clears, you won't be able to choke tears
When the smoke clears, when the smoke clears [4x]

[Slug]
When the smoke clears, you won't be able to choke tears [7x]
When the smoke, Smoke

  1. A.... S....

    Primero de secundaria wow....como pasa el tiempo

    atmospheres older stuff is like mixing the great writers of rock with the gangsta beats of og rap. it's fricking awesome

    G.... G....

    his newer stuff well still lyrically awesome it isn't nearly as hard hitting.

  7. t.... ....

    when the smoke clears

    Yeah but wanna know something crazy? that dude posted that comment 2 years ago, and in all the time only ONE person disliked just to prove it wrong. That tells a lot about the song/fans. Whenever I see that top comment there are 30+ dislikes in a few days

  17. s.... M....

    Every time that comment is posted some dick goes, "WELL MIGHT AS WELL DISPROVE THE TOP COMMENT JUST BECAUSE I CAN." I mean, the guy probably likes the song, why else would he be watching this video?

    s.... M....

    spencer Martin You're right it's always easier to try and rip something down than to build something worthwhile. They mostly do it to make themselves feel better, so from 2017 go find a hobby and stop fucking things up.

  29. A.... N....

    Haha, it's funny 'cause it's true (Homer Simpson voice)

  30. A.... N....

    Cleans or clears, based on what is being said. I.E. i've heard "When the smoke clears" i've never heard "When the smoke cleans". Translations are not always right, that is one thing google CAN'T do. So yeah, it depends on what is being said/ how it's said.

  31. L.... ....

    When the smoke clears.

  32. M.... C....

    @LuCaRiOfan94 illmatic.

    i wonder where is spawn now a days.

  52. M.... Q....

    i love how lots of stuff on overcast is not deep, its just angry flow and slug n spawn tearing the mic

  53. j.... ....

    They sampled "The First Garden" by Stevie Wonder for this song.

  54. s.... ....

    @websharky2k Lol you come in here and blab about taking the higher ground, and yet you cant help but get the last word.

  55. T.... ....

    Classy.

  56. T.... ....

    @dillagenceable lol Alright man, good to know you read what I wrote. I did it for Sean's behalf, not to take the opportunity to belittle you. Notice I don't challenge you with everything I write? Yeah, not worth it lol.

  57. T.... ....

    @dillagenceable Seriously man? I'm not going to start a flame war on Youtube, that's fucking ridiculous if you think it's worth while to do so lol. Anonymity always seems to get people to puff out their chests. Only reason I corrected you is because Sean has said so many times that he prefers when his fans don't call him by his moniker. He just wants to be known for what he is, not what people think of him as.

  58. p.... ....

    @dillagenceable idiot...

  59. T.... ....

    @dillagenceable *Sean Daley.

  60. T.... ....

    @gaessiba trolll

  61. x.... ....

    perfect

  62. A.... ....

    @gaessiba Are you listening to this song?

  63. g.... ....

    worst atmosphere album ever.
    the best is you cant imagine how fun were having.

  64. E.... ....

    Favorites meet ATMOSPHERE !

  65. Z.... ....

    When the smoke clears

  66. M.... W....

    @industrialhemprocks Actually I think it literally means "When it cleans the smoke", which may be intended or an error. 'El humo' could only be the subject if it came first or if the title were a question.
    Good song anyway. Overcast! is a great album, one of Slug's best.

  67. c.... m....

    @ilikesteamgames what is it supposed to say

  68. A.... ....

    @ilikesteamgames
    Yeah, and incorrect spanish at that xD

  69. x.... ....

    wonder why its in spanish...

  70. i.... ....

    when the smoke cleanses. or when the smoke cleans. i personally think it means when the smoke cleanses but really it says when the smoke cleans but its all a matter of context.

  71. o.... ....

    @dillagenceable Yeah for sure Spawn has nothing on Slug but hes still a good complement to Atmosphere IMO

  72. K.... M....

    @mexicanupcopsass por que....

  73. 1.... ....

    @wysacenomewuw theres not even a video u spammy douche!

  74. r.... ....

    i travel like the wind, i travel like avis
    i feel as if ive been to hell and back and i aint even been to vegas

  75. D.... P....

    caus any engine is highly delicate...
    And what you say is irrevlivent
    if you just talkin for the hell of it.
    I smell some shit
    check your sole brother
    did you step in it?
    DAmn son

  76. i.... ....

    beat is so dope

  77. r.... ....

    "moist, thats how we leave em rendered
    either the brain or the pubic region dependin on ya gender"

  78. C.... D....

    this song has inspired me.... writing helps me feel direct. helps me disect then reflect. when im feeling neglect. and it helps me perfect and redirect how i feel. so i dont forget how i feel. i feel erect i feel like a suspect. i feel like i cant feel at all. its my own disrespect and self neglect. along with self mutilation. divide that by my sorrows multiplication. and whewn you subtract that one girl a whole wolrd of loneliness is added. everyone of these walls should be padded

  79. h.... ....

    i like how there is a feeling of rats behind the beat..

  80. m.... ....

    when the smoke clears

  81. G.... ....

    I'd call it a lyrical slaughter

  82. F.... A....

    damNN yearss OF this SONG makess ME HAPPY TO SMOKE THIS BLIZZZZunt

  83. s.... ....

    Easily.... so complete, there isn't a second of filler. Even the hidden track and the vinyl exclusive are past dope. Ant is so slept on it's almost depressing.

  84. J.... H....

    OVERCAST

    one of the best hip hop albums ever created

  85. s.... ....

    I always thought he was pretty whack on the early mixtapes/overcast!

  86. j.... ....

    He now raps as Rek the Heavyweight.

  87. O.... S....

    def my fav

  88. O.... A....

    atmosphere goes hard all the way!

  89. M.... S....

    this album was pretty good... i was happy cause i found it at music warehouse for like 7 bucks... pretty down.
    good stuff........................

  90. J.... W....

    This is one of Atmosphere's most under-rated songs. Thanks for posting.

  91. g.... r....

    good shit slug
