I Am Music |
| I was just saying to myself the other day |
| Most of believing the magician |
| But you’re bewitching |
| Because of this I must say |
| I (I) |
| I (oh I) |
| Appreciate what you give to me Yeah (I) |
| I (oh I) |
| Appreciate what you give to me People say I got soul look at all the records I hold |
| The lives I’ve affected, connect and control |
| With me in your basement, your mama got blown |
| I provide the vibe to keep the strippers on poles |
| Through me the black experience is glorious told |
| From a school that’s old bold, so I rock gold |
| And platinum, so cats I hold notes and cash for them |
| On streets I rap for them, in ghettos I blast for them |
| Mash with them, at the party and all |
| Peep the universal language that’s embodying all |
| Put the Billie Holiday, Bob Marley in y’all |
| Y’all feel most high when I be in y’all |
| System, with the rhythm I up jump the boogie |
| Shame I rely on record labels to push me Since the bush, I been y’all way to escape |
| Through eight-tracks wax CDs and tapes |
| I am music |
| You can feel me all over alive, I help culture survive, I opened the eyes of many |
| Styles y’all wrote in the skies, with your lows and highs, open your mind to hear me In the streets I beat cops and obsolete |
| On every station it’s hot you can’t stop my heat |
| I taught J and Dre how to rock the beat |
| On what’s going on today yo, I gots to speak |
| I take the stand, yo you could feel me bam |
| Whether in Larry Graham or Steely Dan |
| Live I be killing it man |
| For how long I survived yo I’m realer than man |
| Got a soft side but I’m still a man |
| For me women cry and children dance, I’m trying to eat |
| I could’a got a mil and ran |
| But like Sly for the fam still I stand |
| I am music |
| I been here since the beginning |
| Beginning of time yo beginning of time |
| Deep in the mind of the ancient ones |
| Everybody love me like they do the sun |
| I shine at times yo at times I’m dark |
| You can’t categorize me, my mind’s a art |
| Inside my heart, it ain’t about climbing charts |
| I’m the one you roll with when your ride is smart |
| The change that came, the change that comes |
| I change with chords and I kick it with drums |
| Get blow with horns and did it on the one |
| Riffed for guitars, for the Lord I sung |
| Spun around the world at parties and weddings |
| Wherever I go I create the setting |
| You know me from lessons or your pops collections |
| Whether whole or half stepping I’m a blessing |
| Yo I am music |
