No Fear Of Time
(专辑: No Fear Of Time - 2022)
No fear of time His children will be the
way If he's given the
white world hell, what will his children do? This wasn't no play-thing The
motive is that the
seed of a
man chosen by God must not be wasted Run away, that's the
plan, live above the
grave None is safe, I
see the
pain on a
mother's face A
ton of grace is what she showed as they took away her first-born She didn't break, she didn't look away because of race They said her life wasn't valuable but that was fake They said a
wound create capital but that was rape They say because she black that it's impossible To be racist but they assume that racism is logical We know better, we know metals, no rose petals Hiding in the
shadows like Wesley Snipes in Mo' Better They play Oppression Olympics, looking for gold medals We don't settle You know, a
long time ago, being crazy meant something Nowadays, everybody's crazy On Keep on Float on No fear of time Float on Float Ladies and gentleman You know what I'm saying? A
message from the
ancient future, a
fresh fossil A
piece of the
buried gospel that the
Earth refused to swallow A
seed grown into a
tall tree, long sleeves Ripe fruit and eating off the
leaves, warm breeze Live from the
summer that the
incline And this has been everything beside a
short ride (Short ride) Marks the
greatness, battle scars and bruises Seen there is clarity, clashes and confusion Live from the
summer that the
incline And this has been everything beside a
short climb We done survived and thrived and where others have died and Bed-Stuy, do or die, so, do is what I
did Get it on, get her done, another one, another one Banging mad lyrics um, you can feel a
different run Where they get their rhythm from, the
tipping point, T.O.P? Black Star reconvened, boulevard of Anne Greene That Kings County keep creating kings Who make amazing and creative things So give thanks for the
aliquant raw, the
elemental is sharp God give us the
design and we assemble an ark and just float On (Nowadays, everybody's crazy) Keep on Float on No fear of time Float on Float It was watered down (Ladies and gentleman), but it's fire next (You know what I'm saying?) That's a
promise not a
threat, check Everybody had to think about what was possible for a
black artist You know, within the
international, the
mainstream scene And, uh, I
mean, and that opening was there because of hip-hop I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding The
doors cracked open a
little bit The
people downtown were looking for some new energy And they were already feeling it from just the
presence of kids from Brooklyn I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding, yeah Being downtown or being in the
East Village They had the
same type of impact that the
jazz cats had I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding And they were coming with, like, a
new culture A
culture that was new, that was dynamic, that was sophisticated (Sophisticated) I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding, yeah The
albums were theory books, they're God's books too, you know what I
mean? I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding When they were fourteen, fifteen, they grabbed onto this thing So they learned all that material I
want to thank you for helping me reach the
understanding, yeah You know, I
mean, one of the
things we know about emcees is, man, they just have phenomenal memories (Phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories) Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories Phenomenal memories
