ASHERU & BLUE BLACK OF THE UNSPOKEN HEARD - This Is Me lyrics

rate me

I'm sayin..first heard this, I was like, 'this is me'

We got Asheru.. 'This is ME!'

[beat comes on]

[softly] Ill Will, Earthquake

Goes a little somethin like this...

Aiyyo my man got me wide, I'm listenin to beats inside the ride

I put my love in so when you drivin down the street

And you got this beat on, it's hot 'cause the heat on

And if you got that fat shit, then put repeat on

I pop your ass like a clutch, to get you started

My man farted and the whole crowd parted

You know my shit is so together, I carry clever across the cleft

Like soundwaves and ravage in his chest

It's not a matter of bein wack or not

It's about - who got your back when shit gets hot

In the crowds, I'm cultivatin props, I grow rocks

And stock breaks, manipulate the art and create

See, when I first started my heart was in the right place

Then they changed the game and I still kept pace

So now I'm in the place, and I'm in the house, and I'm comin back

You know this nigga's name--Blue Black

Walk in, at the party, see who's spinnin, was some nigga

Are you high or wide, I'm just dolo lookin fly

Ghetto-pretty in the city of lights

And the ass out, finger-poppin hips and lips

Lookin way past, sweat her, 'cause I can't let her know I want her

So I lounge a look lost, cost effective?

When it's time to ante up, panties up her ass

So tight, I need a rinse to work a nut off

C?? freezin?, while I'm seizin silhouettes

Let's wallow in the wetness--Check this

I been a b-boy before I been away, but the b in me'll never go away

I'll stow away on a ship, I'll seal my lips ? and escape

You know- I create funk flow

'Cause I'm not caught up, I thought of a way to speak and spoke:

The Unspoken Heard is no joke

[everyone talking]

Yo, I glaze from purple haze to daze and amazin phrases

I'm thinkin bout money 'cause it pays

So is you is, or is you ain't an entertainer?

I'm a writer, or retainer?, I make art like a painter

I represent the remnant, the remainder

I don't know how to make this point plainer

But brothas who supposed to be, I was hostin a show

I wasn't s'posed to be, lookin at this brotha close to me

And even he wasn't who he was supposed to be

So I'm trapped in the circle (just trapped in the circle)

I'm very present in the room I'm in

Presentin ill rhythms when the track begin

It gets me open and my rhyme falls in, but even ?? times

See I'm not complainin but the shit is dreamin

The game face kid - entertainin - the world is a show

You d'know? See you got to show and tell to get to go

So I create this energy, this synergy.

[simultaneuous rhyming] It's above and beyond me, it's on me

I make it since it's so divine, more sublime

Surrounded by mendacity, but yo, that's the time

And every time I present, the present tense is tension

But that wasn't even mind's intention.. DC!!

[everyone talking]

[Ill Will kicks an amazing freestyle]
