[Intro]
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri-La, hey
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri-La
La di da, sippin' on tea at the..
[Verse]
Lemme tell you 'bout the spot I frequent
Where the hotshots tend to flock on weekends
Oolong in pot that my partner's steepin'
You wanna get lost..? Come along this evening
We could all pitch even, ain't gotta be rich
Nah I ain't made of gold but the heart in me is
So I don't waste chips on them lottery ticks
Why bother with trends when I'm coppin' from thrifts..?
Wealth is of the mind, okay?
Hell I'm giving all these gems in my mind away
While I'm sippin' on a blend of the finest grey-
Earl tea, surely, you should try a taste
Girly, you're sweet, you should ride my... waaaave
What you thought I might say? I'm a gentleman
Oh my, bow ties, not Lettermans
I'm so fly when I drop, call me "Jettison"
Its so sick, but the rhetoric is medicine
Its evident that what I spit is pure benevolence
I'm heaven sent, you're in the essence of preeminence
I'm devilish, this venom spit is pure malevolence
Nah, I'm not in your garden Eden
Find moi at the Shangri-La this evening
Chimichurri fries and the sauce aioli
While a guy tickles ives on the Fazioli, wuhssup..?
[Hook}
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri-La
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri-La
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri... La
La di da, sippin' on tea at the..
[Verse}
I'm utterly buttery smooth on the mic
Some of these honeys get wooed when I write then
Suddenly come and get n*** for the night
No.. cuddling, just consuming my pipe
So lewd but I'm nice, no jewels but I'm bright
Assuming you're cool, we can groove for the night
I'm immune to the hype, so I do what I like
Got my tunes in your head like the coolest of lice
When he.. started rappin' they got as silent as Charlie Chaplin
Started clappin' and actin' wild as Charles Manson
No lollygaggin', I lease beats and bodybag 'em
In the lobby of the Shangri, where I'm probably hangin'
Gaudy fashion, I stay classy as Jay Gatsby
Remain flashy, make Daisy behave nasty
Scoring's plenty important when in your roaring twenties
So don't resent me cuz its only when them oldies tell me
Shiiit, lemme cool it on the double time
I school kids with loose lips and a couple rhymes
A nuisance with a new sense of what's sublime
A few sips, a few hits, and I'm on a viiiibe
Classic man with a master plan
To go gold for the home of the Raptors' fans
And be known 'cross the globe for my passion y'all
Have your whole squad saying "Damn, Haf is suave"
[Outro]
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri-La
La di da, sippin' on tea at the Shangri... La
