I'm home
|
|
Uh, yeah
|
They always ask me, ' Ali, what you so angry for man? Why you always so upset? '
|
I tell 'em ' Shit, theres a thin line between anger and hunger my man
|
And I ride a unicycle down the middle, you might catch me touchin feet down on both sides '
|
|
Ever since day number one, it's just me and where I'm coming from
|
Rites of Passage and Shadows on the Sun
|
My people, I stand before you, As a man with more true shit
|
Than what he knows to do with
|
I give it all to you, long as you can promise me this
|
When its time, you will ball up a fist (Like this)
|
Me and Anthony, we fill all the gaps
|
And are proud of what we make, regardless what happens
|
Fuck rappin, I sing off key
|
One thing you should never do is dis Ali
|
Cause, motherfucker, there aint nothin rougher
|
Then tryin to climb from the rug you'll get swept under
|
I can run through every one of your blunders
|
Mistake number one is that your crew don't love ya
|
Ill take a bullet for the Core or the Sayers
|
When me and my dogs out tourin the nation
|
I spit with an intensity you have to witness
|
Look close, my blood on the back of the tickets
|
Its that religious, its what I teach my son
|
How to read the Qur'an and how a party is won
|
|
We like ' Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We *carve* life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
|
Anyway you look at it this shit is amazing '
|
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We *carve* life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
|
Anyway you look at it this shit is amazing'
|
|
When line meets mine, we bend ya girls spine
|
Figure-eight status, she got back for days
|
The same old magic will not crack the maze
|
The lights changed since we anted up, pot has been raised
|
And Im fucking with the hand I was delt
|
Life twenty-five years to experience what Lazurus felt
|
If you drop three crumbs, Ill eat one
|
Feed one to the family, rest I get invested in my freedom
|
I battle through *a part in this shit*
|
With a wrist, full of broken tooth picks, *tryin to carve out a niche*
|
You can either choose the heart or the fist, but you will connect with me
|
If your path ever intersect with me
|
The fire in the eye could never be held back, (its the same)
|
Pressure that made the liberty bell crack, (its the same)
|
Pressure that made my brother E sell crack, (in the name)
|
Qu'ran, holy, Rest in Peace
|
My back is bein watched by, the only one on high
|
We stride in the party, hoods up, crossed eyes
|
Broke as what, but dont give a fuck
|
Cause I feel I got the world by the nuts, Uhh!
|
|
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We call life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
|
Anyway you look at it this shit is amazing
|
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We call life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
|
Anyway you look at it this shit is amazing'
|
|
Homeboy understand, I aint mad at you
|
Theres just very few things in life I know how to do
|
And this is one of them right here
|
|
And whatever comes up comes out
|
We dont put our hands on ourmouths, I stand for what I'm about
|
Unknown but I'm still a soldier
|
Can't let em go home till I win 'em over
|
My youth was training, its very clear
|
Every year, new city, new rules to play with (true shit)
|
New kid in school, didnt rule nothing
|
To this day I rap like Im trying to prove something
|
Little bit aggressive, when I spit a sentence
|
Till you get the message
|
You couldn't pay me to quit professin'
|
Rock sixty-one sold out shows, came home, and caught a bus to the
|
sixty-second
|
Shirt sweated full of work ethic
|
Been in love with the shit since I first met it
|
Rhymesayers is the first to come, last to leave
|
Ain't no tricks up our sleeve, this is what we believe
|
|
We like ' Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We call life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
|
Anyway you look at it this shit is amazing '
|
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
|
We call life out when we sit in the basement
|
We Self Taught, it's as real as you make it
