Talib Kweli - Earning Potential lyrics

rate me

Ya, they said I need to change my name

Who the fuck you think you are, brand new being

Now they only playing the famous

Saying that they knew me then

I walk through the flood, see the direction that I’m moving in

Step into the blood, my soul is red like louis vuittons

Know I can choose to be the deepest rapper on right punch

Live back to after the cheaper life, will have to reach the masses

But now they wishing that they peek the faster

Ain’t wanna admit it, but they had to concede it

So I’ma conceded ...

The flow is covered in leather euros color glass

Many degrees to this rapping but I can be the master

Try to describe it anyone on the superlative

This the real what you hear on the radio, alternative

They guessing what I’m making, but they ask to make conservate

Cause boy you see how pure it is

I earned what I said I would it

And got it the way they said I couldn’t

Fuck that, we’re kicking down the door to get afforded

Fuck that, we’re kicking down the door to get afforded

Fuck that, we’re kicking down the door to get afforded

To get afforded, yeah, to get afforded, to get afforded

They told me I ain't got a chance to be a rapper, might as well just hit the books

And everytime I went to a show a shows I had these people give me looks

Now they watchin while im doin it, they pussy smell the uterus

You haters keep on hating, it ain't nothing cause im used to it

Seem me as a young and eager just to get a chance

Writing in the lab with no one believed I could make a jam

But now I got my fans in the stands with there hand side

They worry bout my morals that I follow and what I stand by

They say im nothing new, I ain't got shit to say

Sit back and i'll change the world, you're in a different age

I burst your bubble, your sttruggle, double da trouble

And dissin with no rebuttle from me laughin from another country

It ain't about tons of money, I’m here to open mines

They close the door on me so I guess i'll open mine.
