lirik lagu lumenate – bars after bars
you must listen to the elephant, he stand in the room
no avoidin’ the lesson, lesser you talk, i will prove
everything i ever dreamed of will be soon comin’ true
i feel enormous, ego big you cannot walk in my shoes
let’s get it, oh lord
runnin’ out the back door
hop into a black car
pullin’ out the backyard
the backyardigans are damagin’ the hooligans
you mediocres really should go back to school again
to touch up on the subjects when you never paid attention
like: you listen to my oldies just in case i’m ever mentioned
in a conversation, save it, always patiently statin’
the facts – this dedication and a heart in the making, in fact
remember bein’ little like “i hope i will make it”
then at 21 years i was one of the greatest
and if that – don’t get you on your f-ckin’ toes
i got plenty mo’ flows that’ll have you wipe your nose
i’m the cold man, frozen, arctic sand and i’m
holdin’, moldin’, closin’ in, but i
know that i might go right in
if they give me a beat i can “fin”
like fatality, your majesty, the casualties done
i done swept the floor with everyone and mopped with their tongues
this is not a new rendition of what i might become
i got 99 methods, bein’ rich ain’t one
i can see why you would wallow all the way to gallows
when you constantly in competition with your own shadow
i ain’t comin’ up short, i report, not a sn-b, but i snort at retorts
that be sayin’ i’m supportive of the violence in the city, might as well just pull the chord
cause the plug kept us alive but won’t hold us up in court
ain’t n-body f-ckin’ with me, i don’t even need a stencil
just to draw up some more imagery that i write with a pencil
this ain’t history, this mystery, enigma in the making
better turn a blind eye soon as everybody faking
taking everything they can
cause when they think ahead they don’t see a vital plan
or even understand
i was rollin’ down the street pretendin’ i was in a rented
tinted windows, dented on the fender when i fully vented
my emotions to the atmosphere and slowly looked around
i was in a void yelling as if there was just a crowd
and n-body comin’ near
cause everything i’m saying got’em trembling in fear, ugh
pedal to the metal when i go in top gear
by the time i reach my limit you ‘gon see me switchin’ tiers
with no peers
not even your top 5 could battle my top lines
i get the motive “competition”, f-ck it, it’s all mines
and i ain’t sharin’ any of my cake ‘less you rollin’ with the squad
sittin’ at the dinner table sending prayers to the gods
cause after this move, we’ll be goin’ for their ranks
funny, water gives us life and i’m the fish outside the tank
or the salty piece of food in the belly of the beast
tell me, will you sing about me or just tell me rest in peace?
everything i ever wanted can’t be too far off from now
and eventually, man, you gon’ see me buyin’ momma’s house
on the beach in dominican republic with a peach in her right hand
drink in the left, and her skin so pretty in the light, i confess
that her son in the game tryna’ lift the sundress, like b-tch
milkin’ the mothaf-ckin’ cash cow
workin’ so hard and i feel i’m ’bout to p-ss out
many free tickets to my upcoming shows
just so everyone can show up and think “man he really blows.”
this from am to pm to the end, please
i got old friends and new friends that love my frees
i got business connections that you won’t believe
i got music and lyrics and melodic beats
i got fans and the talent and all these things
but i ain’t shit ’til i put to use what i have received
i found a little piece of heaven in the art of my craft
i found a little piece of h-ll that always stuck on my path
i drank the holy water, whole, then i swallowed the gl-ss
and i ain’t preachin’ for nothin’, better give me what i ask
this is how i-
paint a pretty picture from the pineal
everyone around me lookin’ at me like i’m not real
people think that i be only making shit up
for the buzz or the love or the film reel
but, then still-
they comin’ to me daily just get some more vibes
cause everything that i be saying resonates with their lives
i know i got a lot of time to make it out of this city
but i ain’t tryna wait no more, i need to do it more quickly
so i picked up on the writing, swiftly
n-body gets me
i’m feelin’ empty
and all my research seems so iffy
if i go present out into the public, i’m a hippy
if i keep it to myself then ain’t n-body growin with me
aye, remember when you listen to support who i am
local hip-hop in a jam and we need some more fans
i’ll give you what you need but do not take what you can
i don’t tolerate greed, please retract your hands
strong performance, i’m searchng for endorsements
man, i could spit forever, but some things are more important
and i could write a letter to my future self to tell me look back
on the past when i used to be a c-cl-ss act
and then smile-
cause look how far i done came
i went from scramblin’ sampled eggs to scramblin’ brains
and trust, no part of my wisdom was related to grades
i wasn’t trying to p-ss, i was just turning the page
