| [00:02.200] |
You know sometimes I be lookin through the darkness |
| [00:05.200] |
Tryin to find the light |
| [00:07.700] |
Tryin to do what's right,with all my might |
| [00:12.200] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [00:15.400] |
Yeah I'm lookin,lookin at you |
| [00:20.700] |
I see you lookin at me,what you wanna wanna do |
| [00:26.200] |
Here we go |
| [00:27.700] |
Take a walk with me |
| [00:30.700] |
Check it out now |
| [00:35.700] |
Now as I peer through the window of gloom, and everyday living |
| [00:39.700] |
And all the hardships one faces, to make you give in |
| [00:42.700] |
I dig more intensely, finding greater strength |
| [00:45.700] |
A lot of heads is empty,I've got a greater rank |
| [00:48.700] |
Than MC's not aware of situations |
| [00:51.200] |
That'll force one to understand, true stipulations |
| [00:54.700] |
Thou shalt not bite, thou shalt not front |
| [00:57.700] |
Fake it if you want but for the battles I've come,cause I'm |
| [01:00.700] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [01:02.700] |
Yeah, I'm lookin out,lookin at you |
| [01:07.700] |
Lookin at me,my style is free, do you wanna be |
| [01:12.200] |
For me this rap life is real life |
| [01:14.200] |
I don't have to create some false image |
| [01:16.200] |
To make the crowd get hyped |
| [01:18.200] |
Too many children get the wrong message, from clowns that walk around |
| [01:21.700] |
Hopelessly lost, thinkin that they're the boss |
| [01:24.200] |
They're in a daze, while dope MC's don't get the front page |
| [01:28.200] |
Me I try to channel my rage |
| [01:30.700] |
As I travel through the city regularly |
| [01:33.200] |
Turning the anger and frustration, straight into energy |
| [01:36.700] |
Yes you will remember me; as the brother who cared |
| [01:40.700] |
To dare to step up, with his soul bared |
| [01:43.200] |
But never fearing cause I've got instructions |
| [01:45.700] |
From Him, to go and fight the corruption so I'm |
| [01:49.200] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [01:51.700] |
I've got to look through it,try to find the light |
| [01:57.200] |
Uhh,maintainin |
| [02:00.700] |
My granddaddy always told me, to keep the light shining |
| [02:04.700] |
So as my mic illuminates,you can feel the state that I'm in |
| [02:07.700] |
Thoroughly immersed in a verse,way more than hardcore |
| [02:10.700] |
I endure, cause in myself,I'm secure |
| [02:13.700] |
Delivering syllables and selections with profound perfection |
| [02:17.200] |
Comin back like the resurrection |
| [02:19.700] |
In this session,I'm professin |
| [02:21.700] |
That those who don't hear and understand |
| [02:23.700] |
Never loved me,and so I planned |
| [02:25.700] |
To take a stand,as one who is firmly focused |
| [02:29.700] |
Plus I'm mad worthy with words |
| [02:30.700] |
I rock from East New York,all the way to the suburbs |
| [02:34.700] |
The lightkeeper,knowledge seeker |
| [02:37.000] |
I switch the stress that's on my mind into the voice that rocks your speaker |
| [02:40.700] |
And I get deeper than the cean when I'm |
| [02:43.700] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [02:47.700] |
Yeah I'm lookin through it |
| [02:49.700] |
Ain't nothing to it but to do it |
| [02:52.700] |
Gotta freak it, now let me freak it check it out |
| [03:00.700] |
All my life |
| [03:03.700] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [03:07.700] |
Yo I'm so ill,I go ill,when beats with jazz |
| [03:10.700]] |
Fill my need to express myself,like the blues I can't lose |
| [03:14.700] |
Weak MC's,they're seekin refuge from my barrage |
| [03:18.200] |
There's no rescue |
| [03:19.700] |
Then I look through the madness, finding sanity |
| [03:23.200] |
I'm crazy alert, I never swim in vanity |
| [03:26.700] |
I do this rap stuff every year |
| [03:28.700] |
Aiyyo peace to my fam especially my man Premier as I'm |
| [03:32.700] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [03:34.700] |
Yeah lookin out,to the wilderness,the jungle,uhh,everybody's got to rumble |
| [03:44.700] |
Lookin through the darkness |
| [04:03.700] |
Got to find my way,doin my own thing |
| [04:08.200] |
Walkin through the darkness |
| [04:11.700] |
Got to find a way |
| [04:16.700] |
Can you see the light? |
