[00:05.923] Close your eyes
[00:08.954] Listen
[00:13.115]
[00:16.214] They get niggas time like it’s lunch down there
[00:18.640] You go down there looking for justice that’s what you find: just us
[00:21.046]
[00:21.198] It's comedy it's hilarious look yourself in the mirror
[00:23.680] Tell me time ain't the scariest for me dropping album after album
[00:26.728] Like it's a various artist compilation
[00:28.288] But it's just me and HB and this shit take concentration
[00:31.027] Niggas know I don't drop this often, so cherish it (So cherish it)
[00:33.662] Like your daughter's graduation, kids marriages
[00:36.217] When the culture vulture swooped down, they start exploitin' the sound
[00:38.812] They drеw up contracts for our niggas, drew hill to drew down
[00:41.616] And I'm prayin' they sеt
[00:42.758] Instead, most artists don't live as good as the execs
[00:45.414] And they end up depressed
[00:46.730] Scarred by A&Rs, the music be changin'
[00:49.294] And the culture be shiftin', so you gotta move with it
[00:51.913] Call me the party crasher, that plan spoiler
[00:53.902] That Malcolm C and Maya Angelou and God are holdin' a camcorder
[00:57.702] Ghetto reporter, live from 40 Side, you know my storyline
[01:01.097] First project rapper, triple platinum with New York at pride
[01:03.583]
[01:03.797] King's disease
[01:05.069] Most of us catch it at one point or another
[01:07.831] But evolve
[01:09.176] Find a new formula
[01:10.849] One that takes everythin' in you to make
[01:12.976]
[01:13.166] The audacity, masterfully crafted these classics, so naturally
[01:16.247] Had to be nasty back at it
[01:17.940] They argue KD1, KD2, and Magic, what's harder when?
[01:22.007] KD3 go harder than all of them
[01:23.456] Back in the nose, barely rubbed elbows with CEO's
[01:26.231] I was dolo, I bet it shot y'all to see me grow
[01:28.955] And all those O's I sell, ain't attend much industry dinners
[01:31.513] Had to attend to my business, go past the sky's limit
[01:34.200] The hate gon' rise quicker, so how could I manage this disadvantage?
[01:37.120] Niggas Planet Hollywood, I came from a different planet
[01:40.155] Leave it up to me to break the news you won't see on the screen
[01:42.650] Chuckle at you mother****ers, we the last of the kings
[01:45.346] Shout to the real ones like us, it's a shortage, it seems
[01:47.974] I'm underground and overground and it's never been seen
[01:50.486] Real council my streams
[01:51.875] Got real people tappin' in, so that's what that means, indeed
[01:55.348]
[01:55.568] It means I got nothin' but the real checkin' in
[01:58.279] We locked in, all the way
[02:03.327] Just applaud this, yeah
