The History |
The beat like a flashback |
Couldn’t move past that |
Put it in rewind, memories like pack rat |
Close up my eyes, and suddenly I’m gone |
Regression, I guess, to the tune of a song |
A hip-hop hit me with the days of my youth |
Sugarhill Gang used to roll the skate too |
In the booth long kisses to the shorties as they rolling |
When they blowing back, then my head would get swollen |
Fast forward now to a point critical |
When me and AmpLive met in college down South |
In the same dorm it was called B-Boys Hall |
Rhyming in the cypher 'til my voice got raw |
AmpLive rocked a new PS, he was on some club shit |
Sounded like snap but the shorties just loved it |
Formed up a clique with the homies Soup and Rick |
Management Blacksmith, back then ??? |
Signed to a major, thought we was the flavor |
Partied all the time, blowing trees bad behavior |
Sittin' in the studio trickin' off the budget |
We never got paid to this day, can’t touch it |
Tommy Boy dropped us the other homies cut |
Going back to Baltimore the others sold stuff |
Times getting tough bordering on desperation |
I need inspiration, depression I was facin' |
Sitting in the West and puffin' on the Lord |
Tryin' to get? |
but I only saw? |
Gave it up to God starting learning meditation |
Prayed all the time building rhymes like a mason |
'Round the same time Amp got the MP, C3G suddenly the energy |
Was back on point, we made our first joint, it was called Venus and it felt |
like oint- |
Ment to my soul, cause now we on a roll back in the studio something I can live |
for |
Couple months later the divine had a plan |
To form up a band, we can tour up the land |
A couple names came, a couple names went |
When Zion I came it was like a spaceship |
Something we could sit in, didn’t need to fit in |
Independent, got the whole globe strippin' |
Mind over Matter, to Deep Water Slang, summer in between came the Internet game |
We went to True And Livin', then to The Break a Dawn, exclusive to Japan so we |
didn’t do you wrong |
Weed in my ??, ??? |
Download the show all they play is the ?? |
The Take Over came and it went hella hard |
But we don’t ever pop ??? |
ja |
Now we tune in, the bass booming |
??? |
Juncture for us humans |
A sound of the time watch it go «tick tock» |
We all will evolve, sync up Atomic Clock |
