| [00:19.30] |
Let me take some time out to reminisce on the past |
| [00:21.75] |
Name plates on your belts, pagers beeping in class |
| [00:23.80] |
Teachers teaching after speaking, seeing we leave in a flash |
| [00:26.12] |
Beats are beating in my headphones and I'm down on some cash |
| [00:28.61] |
Not enough to buy a truck but what i needed was less |
| [00:31.16] |
Heard the about tape by see indeed it was fresh |
| [00:33.54] |
I got that, i got this, i reminisce on a smile |
| [00:36.16] |
Splicing a??? set together or head in a pile |
| [00:38.63] |
Innocent child, quiet and cool, i draw in school |
| [00:41.03] |
Brought my pages markers, mazes, markers and rulers, |
| [00:43.41] |
Meditating like a Buddhist, animating through my music |
| [00:46.07] |
Demonstrating what I'm doing as i calculated movement |
| [00:48.46] |
Celebrating, elevating, levitating you through it |
| [00:50.00] |
So you could to a few trips have some beautiful taste |
| [00:53.42] |
Mr.plants who caught me writing |
| [00:55.11] |
He ripped up the page, once he saw me at a show and i had ripped up the stage |
| [00:58.64] |

Its like that, Insight, and I'm having a ball. |
| [01:17.90] |
I grew up in the city, played ball in the park |
| [01:20.21] |
Love being (?????) in popular landmarks |
| [01:22.65] |
I used to go beyond the trains and play arcade games |
| [01:24.88] |
Street fighter had me good, Ryu could shoot out a flame |
| [01:27.34] |
When i was like 7 i was spending my last buck |
| [01:29.95] |
What i wanted was a quarter for the train i took |
| [01:32.11] |
I had to walk but hey, it was cool back then |
| [01:35.03] |
I got older got around and got scooped up by friends |
| [01:37.44] |
Wasn't a tax paying citizen i had no plan |
| [01:39.89] |
My pops used to pick me up in an old blue van |
| [01:42.05] |
I know he noticed that my friends had an unusual strut |
| [01:44.38] |
"Who's the kid with the big jacket and funny haircut" |
| [01:46.99] |
That's Adonas, he came to pick up on Maxwell |
| [01:49.20] |
He rap well, i didn't rap just to rebel. |
| [01:51.85] |
I propel to excel in fidels of (???) |
| [01:54.35] |
Rebels repel, i foretell on doing well... |
| [02:02.46] |
"Do you remember how it was when we were not who we are? when people didn't think we would get this far?" |
| [02:12.50] |
"Straight from the black-alack, comes the acrobatic, and you were saying i would never be phat, remember that?!" |
| [02:17.44] |
Time passed by started getting some gigs |
| [02:19.15] |
The world sorta seemed smaller before it seemed big |
| [02:21.29] |
Some people thought i was wasting my time |
| [02:23.41] |
Caught it back and still don't even realize that what i was making was magic |
| [02:25.61] |
An era that is classic as defined by youth |
| [02:28.90] |
Is the immediate ingredient you find in truth |
| [02:31.38] |
Im alining the proof |
| [02:32.66] |
Designed useful melodies |
| [02:33.90] |
Energy that i use fused with ooze of Ecstasy |
| [02:36.42] |
My recipe is not a secret |
| [02:38.35] |
I speak it |
| [02:38.99] |
But some people, when i show em still they don't wanna believe it |
| [02:41.10] |
Just hold on and keep on reaching |
| [02:42.71] |
Open up and let the breeze in |
| [02:44.11] |
You could learn from the woods spinning leaves on the trees |
| [02:46.19] |
And, now its time for my conclusion |
| [02:48.10] |
Shine and keep it moving, improving steady, and doing what you're doing |
| [02:50.89] |
I express through rhymes mixed clear with fly traps |
| [02:53.39] |
So this is dedicated, to Kick Snares and Hi-Hats. |
