| [00:03.081] | They say that goodness in life belongs to those who believe: |
| [00:06.856] | So, I believe. Yes |
| [00:11.516] | I start to think and then I sink |
| [00:13.543] | Into the paper, like I was ink |
| [00:15.991] | When I'm writing, I'm trapped in between the lines |
| [00:18.429] | I escape, when I finish the rhyme |
| [00:21.591] | I start to think and then I sink |
| [00:23.673] | Into the paper, like I was ink |
| [00:26.239] | When I'm writing, I'm trapped in between the lines |
| [00:28.861] | I escape, when I finish |
| [00:31.202] | My pop said he was in love when he made me |
| [00:33.809] | Thought about it for a second wasn't hard to see |
| [00:36.326] | I could hear he was sincere, wasn't game or promotion |
| [00:38.980] | The entire affair's probably charged with emotion |
| [00:41.591] | When love call your heart I guess you got to pursue |
| [00:43.819] | 12-11-73, my life is testament |
| [00:46.537] | Praise the beneficent, element that breath |
| [00:49.074] | Devoid in the form that make love manifest |
| [00:51.651] | I spent my early years in Roosevelt Projects |
| [00:54.345] | It was a bright valley with some dark prospects |
| [00:56.607] | In '83, Vendy C was the host with the most |
| [00:58.930] | I listened to the Rap Attack and held the radio close |
| [01:01.635] | I listened to the Rap Attack and held the radio close |
| [01:04.377] | This is far before the days of high glamour and pose |
| [01:06.533] | Aiyo, power from the streetlight made the place dark |
| [01:09.032] | I know a few understand what I'm talking about |
| [01:11.799] | It was love for the thing that made me wanna stay out |
| [01:14.018] | It was love for the thing that made me stay in the house |
| [01:16.898] | Spending time, writing rhymes |
| [01:18.321] | Trying to find words that describe the vibe |
| [01:20.670] | That's inside the space |
| [01:21.913] | When you close your eyes and screw your face |
| [01:24.418] | Is this the pain of too much tenderness? |
| [01:27.689] | To make me nod my head in reverence? |
| [01:29.601] | Should I visit this place in remembrance? |
| [01:31.630] | Or build landmarks here as evidence? |
| [01:34.601] | Nighttime, spirit shook my temperament |
| [01:36.801] | To write rhymes that portray this sentiment |
| [01:39.285] | We live the now for the promise of the infinite |
