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 |
