[Verse 1: J-Live] Ayyo I see y'all through these speakers and headphones Bobbin to the beat, anticipating a poem In the streets and boulevards or parts unknown Your office, warehouse, or restricted zone At your friends place, or comfort of your own home Whether ya' just arrived or about to get gone Whether ya' eating breakfast or about to bone With your spouse, with your peeps or on your own You see me? Not likely, not on TV Despite that though I show you something in 3D It's not that hard, but it's not that easy I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme They say my words write a thousand pictures A thousand scriptures, couldn't prophesize How the images hit the spot where the best light In the house be, just to show all y'all what I see [Chorus: J-Live] Some see with the eyes, and Some see with the hands, I'm Hoping you see with your ears If you understand, From the chosen track down to the vocals on it It's just live thoughts recorded So that you can own it Some see with the eyes, and Some see with the hands, I'm Hoping you see with your ears If you understand The type of music people frame up on your wall This is the audio-visual for all of y'all [Verse 2: J-Live] Ayyo I see y'all average, 'C' average rappers Please, pass the mic', cause you barely passed the class I was new school late, I be old school early My classics kicked the head of the class' ass With all sales final, accepted "as is" It's no checks written that my rhymes can't cash Like Cassius Ali, I leave you leaking excuses Like you wouldn't hit a man with glasses But despite these four eyes I still paint a picture with words That be a sight for sore eyes Sample a cliche to touche hearts and minds If you get the point, you see things my way Not like you need some quote-en-quote Coke bottles You just be rocking a pair, sweating your role model The vocab' chump change I maintain It's what your mind would hope to obtain if it struck lotto I guess in that way we see things differently We at the same vantage point seeing different things Y'all see yourselves as struggling starving artists I take advantage of the progress the struggle brings Y'all see yourselves as bubbling pop rock stars I see so many bubbles popped I never got far The only stars I know is in the sky, in a child's eye That's why I just try to describe what I see [Chorus] [Verse 3: J-Live] Yo, y'all saw bootleggers stealing music killing me I saw fans keeping the buzz healing me In fact, I see 'em at the show they feeling me That's why I'm still in the field, even without a deal These ain't the last days but they say they soon to be People's audio-visuals in the name of unity I see poison pushers in they own community Saying "Fuck It" that's they only opportunity I see grown folks acting just like little kids And little kids thinking that's what they should grow to be I see herbs outside wishing they were killers And I see killers inside wishing they were free I see gods, and we build on how we see degrees in the light Food for thought like Apple Jacks we eat what we like But hopefully we like what we need And the truth is the light If its right, you could see [Chorus]
