[Talib Kweli, Al Be Back, Rah Digga, Black Thought - Art Imitates Life lyrics]
Let's toast to paid mortgages
Lasting marriages
Tina Farris's pay King to Paris living long
Making my kids heirs and heiresses
The family crest, the legacy, the heritage
I'm out of Philly where the
Ecstasy and syrup is
And we don't need Theraflu
We need therapists
Them never-ending pursuit of
Them dead presidents
Is the reason I got the band back together
Bitch yeah, it's me and, and his
North side, bomb squad, Eric Vietnam
If you don't see it like I see
It then you see it wrong
We October 3rd niggas like me and Kwe'
Life got me in a state on the interstate
And all I'm thinking bout is what's
Up on my dinner plate
Meanwhile I make your girls hyperventilate
Prolly cause I live the kind
Of life art imitate
That's my art in your eyes
My life in your hands
We living next door to the Aquilius again
Pardon me fam but, I'mma show you how it is
I'mma show you how we get in
Rocking the Guy Fawkes mask like Anonymous
Passport pimping like I'm going
Outta town to flip
The ass for a symbol with the
Cops hopping out of whips
Bath salt niggas with the zombies apocalypse
I'm blessed cause my afterlife is the studio
This rappers life is gangster's
Paradise like I'm Coolio
That's what a few believe like a doobie roll
We off of that Patrón
We sipping the Don Julio
You talking shit? we don't need the chatter
Opinions are like assholes
Not everybody fecal matter
So they straining to push it out
Put they foot in their mouth
That's when I'm letting the Brooklyn out
When they pull it out
Better let it off cause you set it off
The music that's creating a movement
Like it's December 4th
Threw away the dark meat but
They ate the white
Animated like it's kind of darklit
It's my wicked life it imitate my life
Yeah, y'all keeping it 3hunnid
We keeping it 360
Coming full circle echelon don emcees with me
Tired of saying I'm the best
I won't waste another breath
Heard lyrics coming back, I say it never left
Y'all just catching up
So slow to come around
Ice T gave ya cliff notes
I ain't gotta dumb it down
Cause, I read the book
Made the movie and I edit this
All while I be living it
And set the precedence
And get the presidents
Fuck all the chit chat
Might hear the click clack
And I'mma diss back
Married to the game get the
Rice out Riff Raff nice being self employed
Ain't gotta kiss ass
I ain't gotta slim fast
Smack a ho with a love handle
Dare you to say you ain't a fan boo
Roll a bamboo
Life imitating art imitating life
Show you how the fam do
Lasting marriages
Tina Farris's pay King to Paris living long
Making my kids heirs and heiresses
The family crest, the legacy, the heritage
I'm out of Philly where the
Ecstasy and syrup is
And we don't need Theraflu
We need therapists
Them never-ending pursuit of
Them dead presidents
