[Ab-Soul, Raheem DeVaughn, Rapsody - NonFiction lyrics]
Yo, 9th Wonder, we got one
Never, never done (Rapsody)
And Radio Raheem DeVaughn church on the move
My birthplace was the Bronx
Adidas with the fat shoelaces
Cazelles on the frames of our faces
Boom Bap, out the boom box
We've been building this 40 years strong
The game is for the taking this
Is history in the making
And let me make it clear (Ooh la la laa)
This ain't no bubble gum rap
With 9th on the track
And Rapsody (Ooh la la laa)
This is, this is (Hip Hop)
This is (Ooh la la laa) the Real
I stay on my Ps and my Qs - Ss, Ts, Us
I'm always working
How you spell success in the stu
Some get they money
Like to blaze in the coupe
Was raised to spend days
Practicing like the hoops
We the truth, none realer
Too uncommon like Dilla, the Light
I shine
My rhymes come paired like the Williams
Two 22's, I'm a sister worth millions
Lyrically
They all fear the flow like Big Williams
Polo dipped, loco whips
Weren't impressed if the flows
Won't potato crisp
Rap back like the NATO, connect with gods
Cause my odds of being large
Weighed out like Chris
Yo, Biggie the goal, I'm really the mold
Of what you really want to be
If you hadn't of sold your soul
I burn slow like fo'-fo's hitting
'95 spirit, in the days it was written
Cats stay trippin', but rip and I never stop
Got a little buzz now I
Bubble like a kettle pot
I know the devil watch and wanna touch me
But like metal box
I stay locked under this Hip Hop forever God
Reckless, necklace, flows all hang 'em
Real coming back
Now these rappers all changing
Fearful careers, I don't cower
The new power
Duracell it never runs out for an hour
Keep destroying, smoke 'em like sour
Break 'em all down to
Rebuild 'em like towers that's the Real
This is, hip hop (Ooh la la la)
This is this is, hip hop
This is, hip hop (Ooh la la la)
This is this is, hip hop
This is, hip hop (Ooh la la la)
The modern day saints of our stories
New torch bearers, we the children like Corey
Gunz of the ones that ran Nation of
Millions and watched Mike in Delores
Used to ride to Nore, now the people inquiry
About the 5’3" emcee with ovaries
Got a bite on the mic like
The likes of ol’ Lauryn
Hip-hop, score gotta settle it's
The flip flop back to when cats rolled
Lexus like wrist watch elbow out the door
Bumpin' Nas 'til the speaks pop
Couldn't see me eye to eye
Keep pumpin' your Reeboks
Rattle rear views, clear view
I don't fear you or you
You keep an ear to the streets, too, to
Hear true I been in the booth
Yea killin' on the daily
Jamla representer another baby of the 80’s
Katy Perry, I grew up on Mary
The flow varies cause I studied
Those old from the erry of the gold
Why I shine like that find it scary
The game over, I kill wack emcees, all buried
It's the real
The game is for the taking this
Is history in the making
Let me make it clear (Ooh la la laa)
This ain't no bubble gum rap
With 9th on the track
TDE, ladies and gentlemen Ab-Soul!
And while you niggas keep
Bangin' the same drum
I'm smokin' like I ain't
Got the same lungs i had when I started
Pardon my ignorant rants
I rap like I move keys but
Apple S can't save 'em
There's only so much you can show 'em
They been reading his story so long
They think they know him
I'm sewing up the game
I need needle and thread
Some people lead sheep
Some people just need wool
The shit cuts deep rugby toughin' the feel
You be where the rugs be in the house nigga
With the rest of the house niggas
Thug life, rolling
My homies are screaming "fuck life"
Showin' love at the same damn time
I'd say the future is looking
Bright contrary to CNN
Give me a mic and about three nights
I turn straw into gold like Rumpelstiltskin
Man I made a man cry vibing to Be A Man
Walking like an Egyptian, life ain't fair oh
Boy just got shipped and
The judge don't care
I'll take my steak rare
Maybe it will help me bare
With all the bloody consequences
Obvious in this here so I guess I got the
Game figured out all wrong
I guess you never know what
You got til it's gone
Til' every terrain on this
Plane experience sunshine
Two fingers up and fuck one time
So allow yourself to get caught
Up in the Rapsody
And the 9th Wonder of the world actually
Raheem DeVaughn soul!
Never, never done (Rapsody)
And Radio Raheem DeVaughn church on the move
My birthplace was the Bronx
Adidas with the fat shoelaces
Cazelles on the frames of our faces
Boom Bap, out the boom box
