Lyrics:
How it feel to be 'live today?
Eh,
I watched a real one fly away,
Eh,
I start to question - religion,
The vision is tainted by the fake television,
I'm no Christian,
But I read into it,
it seems God heart colder than an Inuit,
I don't mean to be discussin' what you pray about,
But when your life on the line you should lay it out,
You gave a coffin' to a good man walkin',
Funerals planned ahead - they happen so often,
I don't mean to speak it realer than it ever has,
Illmatic intellect - I dismember Nas,
I remember Nas - used to speak fluently -
Through the grape vines - truthfully,
Yeah,
He was the first one to really fuckin' do it for me -
He brought rap to my life like he knew it should be,
I knew I could be - like your favourite rapper,
Then I realized that I'm not him,
Why would I duplicate what I surpass in my sleep?
I'm droppin' dimes and hits while you're countin' your sheep,
That's love - so beautiful,
So delicate,
Unusual,
I said love,
Is me plus you,
minus them - plus the pen,
What's that equal to? x2
I said love - ink leakin' outta my heart,
I'm apart of an art in extinction,
The condition left in fatality state,
Cause the airtime used never has any weight,
Poetry - Hip Hop - used to be so synonymous,
I'm burnin' all your blueprints and your documents,
I keep it low-key but never lackin' confidence,
Psychiatrist flow - the shit to make a doctor wince,
I must be playin' soccer since - I kick rhymes like Ronaldo with intricate lines,
I'm divine,
I bet you find me listed in your bible chapters,
Old school flow - philoso-rappers,
I don't play doe - just play yo' position,
I molded myself into my own damn system,
I run the game - like EA - comin' out with new editions,
I'm writin' hits - the ones that you was missin',
I be iller than Ebola and it's killin' me,
Cause half the rappin' industry don't have the master will of me,
I go bananas on the track - with my heart out,
All these rappers claim to kill but lookin' no frill to me,
*4 more lines*
It's still love - so beautiful,
So delicate,
Unusual,
I said love,
Is me plus you,
minus them - plus the pen,
What's that equal to? x2
