Renaissance Man (Feat. Tone)
[Audio Clip from 'The Matrix']
I know youre out there. I can feel you now
I know that youre afraid of us. Youre afraid of change
I dont know the future. I didnt come here to tell you how this is going to end
I came here, to tell you how its going to begin
Im going to hang up this phone, and then Im going to show these people what you
Dont want them to see. Im going to show them a world without you. A world without
Rules and controls without borders or boundaries
A world where anything is possible
Where we go from there is a choice I leave to you
Ladies and gentlemen
You are now tuned into the sounds of Jay Electronica, yeah
Please remove all coins, chains, keys, and foreign objects from your pockets
Were gonna have a good time tonight, yeah, yeah, here we go
Everybody told me to be patient
But who was sleepin from couch to couch
And basement to basement but Jay Man?
Satan trying to block my shine like Ray-Bans
Haters never wanna see you bubble
Theyd rather to see you struggle
Thats life, my n****
A lot of fakers in the place
Were invited to taste
And told me right to my face, 'Yeah thats tight my n****
You reppin that dirty south dog? Alright, my n****!'
But they wouldnt lift a finger
To light the incent or let the smoke linger
I aint a Hot Boy but the flows jalapeno
Im never yappin bout how the calicoll end ya
Magnolia crack soldier creepin on the come up
My grandmother wont leave the fvkin projects, I gotta raise the slum up
These nerds at record labels played me Dumb and Dumber
So I showed the industry my ass crack like a plumber
Now ASCAP bangin on my door like a drummer
The Falls bout to put a period on the Summer
But back to the point, They wanna see me fvked up
Kicks scuffed up Laying back with a joint
They said, ' Good things come to those who wait...'
Well I dont know about that
And if you cant feel this rhyme then sorry, Jack
You dont know about rap
And if you dont know struggle you dont know about black
And I dont give a fvk what Bill Cosby said
Cause the problem gon exist when Bill Cosbys dead
And I dont think the revelation from the supreme beings
Residing or hiding out in Bill Cosbys head
This is the thoughts of a soldier
And if you dont like it play dead and roll over
The game is so over
The reign is so over
[Hook : Tone Treasure]
Hes so over, they call him Jay Electronica
What you say? Im not in a... Im just so high
Off this guy, hes so hot, hes so hot
Hes so over, they call him Jay Electronica
What you say? Im not in a... Im just so high
Off this guy, hes so hot, hes so hot
What you say?
What you say?
What you say?
