Blueprint - Respect The Architect lyrics
[Blueprint - Respect The Architect lyrics]
You want the fly shit
You got the Wright brother
Catch a chem trail right after I fly over
I battled alcohol
Had to brawl like a soldier
Vowed to never fall, now all my nights sober
Refine my mind, reclinin' on my sofa
Designed to rhyme and strike
Kinda like a cobra
My pen's venomous, poison tip sentences
Paralyze your sterile mind and
Leave skin blemishes
"When is he gonna fall off?
" some of the people wonder
You're more likely to see a
Foot of snow in summer i'm not mainstream
The tide can never take me under
I'm Clyde Stubblefield
The rhyme is my funky drummer
I write this like my ancestors wrote in Kemit
Before the Bible or any man made religion
Architect, civilization, science and spirit
That's why I never lose sleep
If y'all don't feel it
I'm in my own lane, it has no speed limit
Psychedelic mind is assault without
The weed in it
I'm at the point of no return, too deep in it
Weak and timid turn back
But I proceed with it i lost track of time
Felt like I was unconscious
Then dreamt somebody stole my style
And I can't stop it top to bottom
Whole thing like I was Mantronix
Woke up with a rhyme
Half asleep in my boxers
If it's gonna happen I go a step beyond
You know the true architect when
You hear the song
The foundation for the underground
You're standing on
True fans gonna miss him when he gone
Respect the architect
Right, you can find many
Rappers more complicated
But not many if any higher nominated
I'm at the top waitin', my album top rated
The brightest rap stars not
In my constellation
Tryin' small talk your way
Into the conversation
But, I dominated kinda like a dominatrix
Till the point that my biggest
Haters stop the hating
And pass the peas like a
Plate to the congregation
The most holiest, atop is the loneliest
But only cause I don't
Associate with any lames
Expose the phoney, show 'em how cold it gets
With flows that go against the grain
No doubt
I play the shooter and coroner if need be
When you know the party droppin'
Catch it when it's easy
My rap pedigree command respect
Blueprint, the master builder, the architect
Respect the architect
You got the Wright brother
Catch a chem trail right after I fly over
I battled alcohol
Had to brawl like a soldier
Vowed to never fall, now all my nights sober
Refine my mind, reclinin' on my sofa
Designed to rhyme and strike
Kinda like a cobra
My pen's venomous, poison tip sentences
Paralyze your sterile mind and
Leave skin blemishes
"When is he gonna fall off?
" some of the people wonder
