Generate meaning
1
Come on, yeah
2
I like to take this opportunity to thank everybody
3
Who been riding with me so far, it's a been a long journey
4
But they say your life's path is not about the destination
5
It's all about the journey, I appreciate y'all
6
It's my blood, sweat, tears, years
7
Struggle, love, hate, fear, New York City
8
You could make it here, you could make it anywhere
9
I came prepare for the rain, hail, sleet, snow
10
Whatever the weather we ride
11
Let my people go to the place where knowledge is born
12
We welcome you to the 3rd eye of the storm, check it out
13
Futuristic lyricist, straight from the renaissance
14
Top of the suffer chain, raps up a edge a lot
15
My people suffering, slave to another chain
16
This voyage is maiden like my mother, other name
17
Is this your first trip to hell?
18
Avenge a capitalist, if it's a product then we got it for sell
19
When I first started to spell, my words fell into rhymes
20
Turned into songs, everything else fell into line
21
I paint the pictures, you could see the people bleeding my bars
22
When I was a teen, I was mean, about to reach for the stars
23
So if I fail or fell, write in the clouds, tighten the vowel
24
Word, there use to be no biting allowed
25
Now the gangsters, no grinding allowed
26
Probably see a fight in the stage, 'fore you see a fight in the crowd
27
I send this out to my people facing the storm
28
Homie, we riding it out, you inspire what I'm writing about
29
It's my blood, sweat, tears, years
30
Struggle, love, hate, fear, New York City
31
You could make it here, you could make it anywhere
32
I came prepare for the rain, hail, sleet, snow
33
Whatever the weather we ride
34
Let my people go to the place where knowledge is born
35
We welcome you to the 3rd eye of the storm check it out
36
It's the 3rd eye of the storm

43
Been *** around
44
I'm not a judge but I'm handing out sentences
45
To political prisoners, regular inmates with no visitors
46
*** in the streets outside to reach up for ministers
47
Not those that say they spiritual but actual practitioners
48
Rap listeners, we open the black businesses
49
This underground *** with samples to lack clearances
50
Once you get a past appearances, you could tell who *** is fake
51
And who's *** is based upon the past experiences
52
We really been to war, hand to hand like *** sales
53
Bill the man, the man they try to kill off the blackmail
54
Females left to raise up a son
55
From the day he was one
56
Til' he twenty, and he raise up a gun
57
Get the blazin, fore the blaze of the sun
58
Smoke bracin' his lung
59
Young in his years and he's facing a ton
60
None of his peers wanna share the road
61
Love the child, care to provider
62
But they hand a blunt and share saliva
63
You ain't a rider and you hustlin' backwards
64
To many excess with imitating these crackers
65
So our kids looking up to drug dealers and rappers
66
Taking all the work away from the black actors
67
Revelation is first and Armageddon is after
68
Tsunami's, hurricanes and natural disasters
69
Fast food culture be this, is always a factor
70
It's the gratification they want the cash faster
71
It's my blood, sweat, tears, years
72
Struggle, love, hate, fear, New York City
73
You could make it here, you could make it anywhere
74
I came prepare for the rain, hail, sleet, snow
75
Whatever the weather we ride
76
Let my people go to the place where knowledge is born
77
We welcome you to the 3rd eye of the storm check it out
78
It's the 3rd eye of the storm
79
It's the 3rd eye of the storm
80
It's the 3rd eye of the storm
81
It's the place where knowledge is born
82
Check it out, check it out, check it out
