|
I notice that you mentioned your opinion |
|
Oh, now they got a couple of things to say too |
|
What should I do? |
|
Listen or leak crimson? |
|
All over the floor from my wrists |
|
There, now you've got Lif |
|
Some natural, authentic, completely genetic |
|
Inherited fate trait |
|
He was eclectic but he didn't make great |
|
Status is a trendy little song on a dub plate |
|
Give it some spins and it begins to wither |
|
My nigga |
|
What's up, my nigga? |
|
Let's show and prove |
|
Make moves this winter |
|
Rent a whip and start riding |
|
Look into my eyes and see those two worlds colliding |
|
I wanna be home making records |
|
Now I'm in the studio and all I wanna do is be home |
|
(What's stopping you?) Who's that?! |
|
Move back! |
|
Drive me to the hospital, I'm at the point of collapse |
|
Sorry, baby girl, your man is out on tour |
|
The floor may drop out if I don't walk out |
|
Handle my B.I. |
|
See, I think I might have just missed my own life 'cause I'm working tonight |
|
And the pressure {*4X*} |
|
Sales, interviews, touring, performing at my peak |
|
Man, I need sleep {*2X*} |
|
Now what truly defines one's life? |
|
Is it the legacy they left behind? |
|
Well, this music seems to be mine |
|
It's been nine interesting years in the game |
|
Not too much has changed |
|
I've still got a saw to hack up your frame |
|
Performed at all your favorite festivals |
|
Some cats do one show and blow |
|
My destiny to live on the low |
|
It's got me locked in the basement |
|
In the winter in December |
|
Open window, cold toe |
|
Face down on the futon rocking yesterday's attire |
|
Woke up early feeling uninspired |
|
Staring at my album outline |
|
At this point I've drafted up about nine |
|
New Lif, yeah, it's about time |
|
Maybe you've seen me on stage with Ace, Came to Perceptionists |
|
Or read an article on how my verbal weapon is |
|
Well, regardless how you got here, feel fear |
|
Kick the kick, stomp the snare, goodbye the hi |
|
Watch the rhythm die then resurrect |
|
As I recollect |
|
Ancient black intellect |
|
Erase and redirct |
|
Your collective minds to check a selective rhyme |
|
Detail |
|
Available at retail, griotmatics |
|
Ipod and Treo addicts gotta have it |
|
It's black magic that'll wrinkle time's fabric |
|
Have you heard of Lif? |
|
Well, maybe, sorta, perhaps |
|
Listen up and let me guide you to the point of collapse |
