Life Sentence
Brother Ali

Oh yeahnThe flow here is so rarenWon’t hear me so bare and focused nowherenNo hood or burrow post golden yearsnMy most sincere quotes -- I unload ‘em herenYour local hero don’t comparenAn’ oh yeah don’t you dare hold a mirror to me that’s no fairnYou ain’t gotta do your poker stare over herenHonestly don’t care what cards you holdin’, dearnMost my heroes don’t even compete with menI’m on my own kinda sucker- free frequencynI got a IQ I refuse to speak beneathnAnd to lie to you would only cheapen menSeem to me most these dudes are carpoolin’nOne a y’all do something new and then y’all do itnHavin’ déjà vu --nThey enjoy something jay-z donAnd then need a sample that ll say it toonI guess we wasn’t tauight the same rulesnI was brought up “bitin’ is a sin, you gotta pay your dues”nThat’s for underground and mainstream toonThe blame’s on you bitches, shame on you…nStreams roll into the oceannRivers roll into the seanIf I can’t sing my lifenOne of y’all might gotta come and bury menI should only have to tell y’all oncenWhen we come back just to prove it to yanNever had to do much (and) it’s confusednOn my particular brand the truth is undisputednIt’s a fact—stupid people dig stupid-ass musicnAnd that label shoots seven out of ten humansnI’m cast in “underground movement”nI do exactly what I wanna donAnd I’m building one room at a time, damn the blueprintnAnd I’m doin’ just fine in my own mindnTrynna be one of the greatest of all timenIf you ain’t doin’ that then you’re wasting your timenI shake the floorboards to the foundation widenYou know nothing about what it takes to shinenDo an about-face and and holler out “Peace, goodbye…”nI’m a star in the evening skynGot the sun in my hand and the fire in my eyes (oh, lawd)nStreams roll into the oceannRivers roll into the seanIf I cant sing my lifenOne of y’all might gotta come and bury me
