Zenith - Grayskul

Yo check it out, what’s the deal?

This the chef right here, Raekwon

Chilling with my peoples Grayskul

You already know what it is

My Nin

You understand?

Work hard for real

On that Nin shit, Yeah

They don’t even know about the Nin boy

They gon' let 'em know now tho

For real for real

Love is love man, hold the fort down

You already know

Grayskul, Wu-Tang, Won-won-won

We used to dream all night our name would make an imprint

Breathing these words a life just like how I envisioned

Some Marlboro Lights, a pen to write, a slave to my addictions

But I’m no different than the rest of you with my afflictions

To hide behind the pain the same became world wide religion

But what inspires are the stars that shine to light a prism

Much like the minds a prison, far from the eyes of vision

Witness how my ambition guiding me to fly to distance

As if like someone’s listening, when I think there’s something missing

I sit assisted by the pressure testing each commitment

Planets beyond the picket fence, how dreams are reinvented

Cameras expensive lenses sees only see a small percentage

Of what we bleed, of what’s received when we apply the message

The pen secretes to leave impressions on the face with questions

And not a sonnet just your house behind the spot perfection

Amongst the greedy shepherds hold 'em and lose your connection

See me, they’re standing underneath it

A neighbor to go higher, they on a lower frequency

So now they was conspire

And figure out the way to do the same damn thing

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Nobody’s perfect 'cept when we came out the womb

Unwrap these mummies, let them breathe please (Please)

Takin' this moment origami fold the component

And poke it to your varicose so it will spread (Ferocious)

We hold the body high, Who said that you can fly?

Have you ever really- I mean really ever ever tried?

Gettin' this lined in, it’s timed in, while I’m winding up

Here’s mine prepare to dive in back into where your fear is climbing

It’s called adrenaline

The reinvention of electricity from those gentlemen who brought you dope

And from the Scarecrow was still alive and he’s kickin'

But missing is all your prom dates and all you want to do is just go

(Go) We here to help you with that

Show you the land and all its fat and how to survive perhaps

Just let me godforsaken and the stargate is closing

Approach with open arms there’s snow and you glowin'

I believe you have awoken

See me, they’re standing underneath it

A neighbor to go higher, they on a lower frequency

So now they was conspire

And figure out the way to do the same damn thing

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Over and over again (over and over again)

Now days a fade crates a blade have been automated

That’s great but don’t mistake what make’s statements like «you're the greatest»

The truth is music, who you influence?

Who’s wide awake?

And who can move you?

Break the chances they’ve complaced the distribution

Brain pollution, sewage, ain’t it stupid, this movement

Raise the generation of youth consuming stew and its so lucrative

What I don’t get’s the few who truly love the music and spit it

To get what little credit, while the rest just ruin it

You can see us wavin' from such great heights

And while your elevator stuck and its crowded

You allow yourself to be content and settle from mediocre

Redundancy afraid to push that envelope out it

You cloud to get out quick

When the power goes out in dark-i-ness falls you stand tall

Like doctor Manhattan illuminating you all with

The evidence that original thinking is not instinct

But rather rare, distinguished to poignant prepare

Are you ready to be?

Are you ready to be?

Are you ready to be?

See you got me thinking of bad things the one time and shit
