Traveling Light
(专辑: Radio Silence - 2017)
I
come from the
god body era I
come from standing on street corners Smoking blunts outta white owls for 40s Building and destroying about the
suns and the
planets and the
moons and the
stars About the
nature of man About knowledge where some people don't understand And you had [?] [Talib Kweli:] Come on! Yeah Chris, yeah, I
like that right there, yeah! Come on! Kaytranada, classic Waste these niggas, son I
gotta doctorate in rockin it We got it poppin, it's marvelous, nigga watch it You follow a
car but can't be [?] stop it to intervene You're erroneous, these the
phoniest rappers I've ever seen When I
take flight, I'm traveling light Double of times, when I'm touring, exploring outside the
genre Illuminate, when I
grabbin the
mic It's so bright it'll blind you Yeah, I'm back with a
friendly reminder We're two ships that're passing in the
night But alas, you got to run into the
iceberg, cracking this shit in half Traveling light, not talking about back of the
back First I
get back in the
lab Then I
hit the
road, I
be back in a
flash Barry Allen mixed with Harry Allen My blood hot as volcanic rock formed in Canary Diamonds they find on Canary Islands My rhymes inspired by enviroments of the
very violent I'm the
voice of a
generation that's very silent I
stick to my convictions like I've been indicted All you niggas throwing me shade You about to get enlightened [Anderson .Paak:] Travel light Travel light Traveling light Travel light You grinding to the
sun up Whether it's cold murder The
pies have been cut up Hopping over the
hurdles Just look at the
stride Life is heavy enough but you looked at me high Huh, rather leave it behind The
legacy that you deal will be never let down (so) Brooklyn is changing, and so am I
I
see you on the
other side Travel light [Talib Kweli:] I'm faster than the
speed of sound Smashing through these barriers I'm blasting out your speakers now Travel around the
planet till I
landing where I'm needed now We entertainers, they wanna call us leaders now Woah, [?] it's not in the
plans Sharp when I
land Stop for the
fans Every airport from Okinawa to Osaka, Japan Stop assuming I
live in your time zone Jet lag is my reality The
road is my home, I
roam Your downfall is you should probably get out more I
been planning out tours With a
band of outlaws I'm packing my bags Just marijuana and magazines Wrapping the
flag around a
pistol, the
red, the
black and the
green Never crashing, the
grill is mean When I'm whipping machines Dipping between All these commuters, they moving slow like they sipping the
lean Are they living the
dream? Get to they office and that computer's drifting off until they spit start to drip from the
screen [Anderon .Paak:] Travel light Travel light Traveling light Travel light You grinding to the
sun up Whether it's cold murder The
pies have been cut up Hopping over the
hurdles Just look at the
stride Life is heavy enough but you looked at me high Huh, rather leave it behind The
legacy that you deal will be never let down (so) Brooklyn is changing, and so am I
I
see you on the
other side Travel light [Talib Kweli:] City of broken promises My mission is reconnaissance It's dangerous for anybody following That's why I
take biting as a
compliment It's proof of my dominance It's the
haters' way of congratulating me for my accomplishments Well, I'm so atop of this demolishing all the
Charlotters To whisper in the
ears of your congressmen Shoving dollars in their pockets The
more we locked up, the
more they profiting They building empires like Ottoman Now who you wanna face? The
sharks in the
water or the
snakes in the
boat? The
lesser of two evils be fighting for fake votes We walking through the
valley of darkness, so stay close Need the
light at the
end of the
tunnel to make a
toast Raise a
glass to our glorious past We the
wave of the
future Never confusing protesters for looters Silencing Radioheads and OK Computers Travel to Mecca like Mansa Musa So let's go (Yeah!)
