lyrics
See the land I came from is not what it was before, you want the cure here it is 100 pure, 100 more my people fought a hundred wars, 100 swords surround plus 100 more, march on beats the writer and the author speaks, a part of speech is give'em what they often seek, that's awesome peace ya neighbor's look like Dawson's Creek, across the street vacation skip across the beach, these letters I write sometime dead in the night, are dreaded with fright that Imma be ahead of my life, and when I die I hope that I'm in bed with my wife, I'm settled in tight no dreams about the ghetto at night, that's what's about I think you better ask around, you living ya life don't worry if they pat you down, a statue crown and left where my tassles found, my khaki's brown I listen to my papi's sound, the world has changed a lot since I was a boy, but don't be coy they reminisce it won't be Troy, mothers with kids that act like the bloods and crips, they strut the strip know what i mean they strut and strip, they suck for tips they shakin ass with lustful hips, them Jezebel's will fuck around and cut yo dick, rule #1 never will I make it rain, unless it's from the sky like the drops had came, when I was younger used to make a living shopping cane, plus them pills but really yo that thought was lame, just had to get that out there that was off the brain, I'm off the chains no jewelry I am off the chains, still think ya'll didn't hear me said I'm off the change, I'm tryin to get my family green like a Boston game, them loud voices turn to whispers like the boss done came, and that's the bottom line using Mr. Austin's slang, digital letters is what I gotta bring to you, so play this back I'll probably never sing for you, and since I'm married to the game I got a ring for you, I'm Simba I'm just trying to be a king for you...
My last bio was type wack, so now I gotta write some fly shit about myself in order to get you believe I'm indeed the
professional dope move buster I claim to be. One day I woke up like oh shit I know Kung fu. After taking out around 1200 agents at once I flew to outer space and came back enlightened like a mothafucka. After that day, it's never been the same. How's that for fly shit?...more
Hardstrike upright beats have been set aside by producer Sound Cultivator and instead, he has laid out an airy audio escape on which distinguished emcee Illogic takes a cool verbal trip, visiting topics such as love, social issues and much more. Alex Dionisio
Don't get me wrong... Illogic is my guy. love his bars, his example, and Dear Alante is in a very close second place for my favorite track.
The repetition, the difference the second time, my favorite line on the album: "You don't just hurt yourself when people love you/You start a war."
Maybe it's personal issues in my life, but the way that line hits me clenched Slow Down (Act 2) as my favorite joint on this monster full of Gems.
Hats off to Illogic and Lucid Optics! ishthestomach
