"It only takes a spark to make a fire
Lovin' will take us higher"
Reach the stars
Take higher son
Insite
C'mon
Just feel that beat
Yeah, c'mon
Yeah, Speach Impediments
[Verse 1: Syntax Vernac]
I'm just a bass jumper fallin' down with no place to grab
The taste is bad from this bloody tongue in my mouth (ah)
I bit it too many times for counts to be relevant
Heaven sent, yes, I roll with the best, I'm blessed
Proof of God is a beatin' heart in my chest
And I don't really have to explain the rest (nah)
Life is good for me
I don't need a book to read, experience taught me (yeah)
I'm not the type to brag better yet
I like to marvel at the consequences
My mom's a dentist, and I've got some fucked up teeth, imagine that
Goin' against the grain has always been my thing
That's how I gained my fame and I ain't gots to change (right)
Most of the time I feel I'm surrounded by lames (yeah)
Either way, I got a life to make, a bait to bait
And I ain't even got the papes
Soon it'll bite me in the ass
If I don't take full control, I might be bound to crash
Or maybe I should let go (let go)
Now that I think about it, I don't even need the petrol
It's all soul-driven, a bold livin' from the old livin'
I'm givin' my word to be heard by humanity
And this heart in my chest is the center of my gravity
Right
[Verse 2: DrewID]
This is my ode to humanity, can it be that none of it's left?
And if there isn't, should I contemplate death? (c'mon)
Is a world without love worth livin' in?
Is imprisonment contingent with the condition of citizens?
What is infinite, and what is finite?
The bright lights in the sky that shine, lifelike
Reality surrounds us, but I check my mic twice
And always keep a firm grip whenever I rock it (c'mon)
But when I put my mic down, no, the world don't stop (yeah)
It keeps on movin' through the rhythm, no crits, no byclocks
They keep tickin', time is restless
A real soldier truly knows that the mind's a weapon (that's right)
Of mass construction, I've asked for nothin'
Still at times I often wonder if I'll pass his judgment
A near-death experience, the next man is fearin' his
Just because you're deaf don't mean you ain't hearin' this kid
So quit ignorein', we gotta reach the stars (yeah)
And look for that deeper meaning in between the bars
In every word and every breath, I'm speakin' from the heart
'Cause between the strings, the strings are known to fall apart
And unravel, I wanna help you travel to new heights
And view sights you never seen and bring you a new life (yeah)
My crew's plight is to burn fables at night
And change the world with just two turntables and a mic
Mic mic mic mic mic mic mic mic
Mic mic mic mic mic mic mic ...
[Chorus: DrewID]
So just reach, c'mon, just reach
Just reach, c'mon, just reach
Got to reach for your dreams, c'mon, just reach
Just reach, c'mon, just reach
Got to reach for the stars, y'all
Just reach, just reach, c'mon, just reach
Got to reach for your dreams, c'mon, just reach
Just reach a little further
[Bridge: DrewID]
Yo, I got DJ Zole here with me. We would like to take a second and pay homage to some of the great MCs who aren't with us anymore, who've become true hip-hop legends. They've reached for the stars, and this is our dedication. Zole, show them how we do it, man
