What we have here |
|
Is the alpha and the omega |
|
I spit it, bare witness to the greatest |
|
And the latest, they try to hate us |
|
Witness the evolution of spitting, it's wicked and it's decadent |
|
Revolutions per minutes, every time the record spin |
|
Retribution for cynics, like a stick-up kid with weapons |
|
In Brooklyn, they say |
|
I run it, the ' |
|
Natti is checking in |
|
No matter the terminology, blood splatter artistically |
|
It's looking like a |
|
Jackson Pollock painting, it's a mystery |
|
Really should be brothers united against the industry |
|
The African diaspora scatter with shattered history |
|
The game missing me, rap is so repetitive |
|
Although I ain't your blood or your cuz, it's all relative |
|
I got a gang of rhymes, and |
|
Tones' beats is banging |
|
We moving through the streets like we're slanging dimes |
|
It's magical, how the track's so classical |
|
The cats who got gassed up in their sweats like |
|
PlaxicoI'm back from my sabbatical, voice of the future, black radical |
|
Keeping all the damages collateral |
|
Listening to instrumentals |
|
Thinking about all the things |
|
I've been through |
|
The music is just a peek into my life, it's a window |
|
It's so high tech and it's all so simple |
|
And if I'm knocked down, |
|
I don't stay down |
|
Even if I get down, |
|
I don't lay down |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Hey yo, I'm taking all bets and settling all debts |
|
A giant leap for man begins with a small step |
|
From a sword to a set, to my people on the picket line |
|
Who's sicking of getting treated like them aliens in |
|
District 9 |
|
I juxtapose my business model with my spirit |
|
What I'm just supposed to keep you comfortable with the lyrics? |
|
I know the flow's disturbing, |
|
I know for certain just because |
|
You know all about the artist don't mean you know the person |
|
You don't know me, |
|
I run labels |
|
These unstable rappers so phony |
|
I try to listen but they're boring as missionary position |
|
So I'm shitting on these niggas like dysentery conditions |
|
I'm sitting on the throne, you dreaming that it's empty soon |
|
Nobody feeling you, you're screaming in an empty room |
|
The tree that fall in the forest, nobody hearing you |
|
Even though you fall the hardest, don't get me started |
|
Listening to instrumentals |
|
Thinking about all the things |
|
I've been through |
|
The music is just a peek into my life, it's a window |
|
It's so high tech and it's all so simple |
|
And if I'm knocked down, |
|
I don't stay down |
|
Even if I get down, |
|
I don't lay down |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Yo, I build up my defenses when |
|
I'm left to my devices |
|
Time gets suspended, more than |
|
DMX's driver's license |
|
My music's steady, not affected by the higher prices |
|
People having sex in the streets like |
|
DionysusYou know what my advice is? |
|
Fuck my advice, live your life |
|
Stop tripping like everything amount to crisis |
|
I make the sacrifices, my history is black as ice is |
|
I don't think that |
|
I can trust you if you're lacking vices |
|
I never miss a beat, the liquor make me slurred, it takes my words |
|
Tries to twist them like a |
|
Swisher Sweet with sticky herbs |
|
American History |
|
X, your teeth'll hit the curb |
|
It's easy 'cause |
|
I'm ill with the wordplay, |
|
I still flip the bird |
|
Like Jeezy, strip it down, now it's exposed |
|
I suppose my flow is the emperor's new clothes |
|
Although I'm always by myself, |
|
I never ride alone |
|
The music is on then |
|
I'm right at home, zoning |
|
Listening to instrumentals |
|
Thinking about all the things |
|
I've been through |
|
The music is just a peek into my life, it's a window |
|
It's so high tech and it's all so simple |
|
And if I'm knocked down, |
|
I don't stay down |
|
Even if I get down, |
|
I don't lay down |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Hotter than the tar on this empty playground |
|
Yeah, it's pavement |
|
Don't be scared to think, man, don't be scared |
|
I know whats in your brain |
|
It's scary, man, you only usin' like ten percent |
|
The other ninety percent is scary, man |
|
But don't be scared, scary ass niggas |
