lyrics

Verse: Bright and early kick my feet up in the room/ thoughts growing in my mind like a fetus in the womb/ feed it let it bloom/ tapping my addidas to the tune/ if a thought aint worth sharing I'm a lead it to its tomb/ blank sheets of paper just waiting to me consumed' so every single experience is opportune/ nothing new under the sun how bout the moon/ last night was a night I want to write about soon/ might write about her body and the scent of her perfume/ or how its so cold I wanted to write about June/ what Ya'l want to hear i never assume/ i know what i need to express so its best I resume/ I take 5 like maroon/ then come back to rap on the bap and the boom/ spotting lyrics in the sky like balloons/ something like a butterfly once was a caterpillar up in a cocoon/

Hook: Im a take nothing/ turn it into something/ then i take something/ and turn it into everything/ X's 4

Verse 2: By any medium necessary/ like Asante/ so na dont ever worry/ see the people come 1st not secondary/ cause we aint all about the paper like a secretary/ whats a monetary gain to a visionary/ giving birth to ideas they can never burry/ from a city and borough no less than legendary/ technology or magic/ nothings imaginary/ contemporary Hip Hop revolutionary/ against the grain gang bang like a mercenary/ culinary cooking up the extra ordinary/ cause they aint saying much i havent heard before already/ born on the 1st of February/ my father played the sax and its hereditary/until im laying in a cemetery/ Im a bless the crowd like I came up in a seminary

Hook:Hook: Im a take nothing/ turn it into something/ then i take something/ and turn it into everything/ X's 4

Verse 3: Got the ability/ the capability/ to tock the facility/ rock with agility/ say it aint so you've got to be kidding me/ we control the show with lots of stability/ the crowd is the trilogy/ with style humility/ drop positivity/ not stupidity/ not futility/ got to pay the utilities/ and if it aint true its a lie-ability/ check my credibility/ get props publicity/ from Bronx vicinities/ to spots in Italy/ ignore probability/ more possibilities/ all in proximity/ all Gods gift to me/ see what the apitamy/ of productivity/ write prolifically/ fight holistically/ the flow got mobility/ and connectivity/ plus digability/ peace tranquility-
