What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
I'm home
2
Uh, yeah
3
They always ask me, "Ali, what you so angry for man?
4
Why you always so upset?"
5
I tell them "Shit, there's a thin line between anger and hunger, my man
6
And I ride a unicycle down the middle
7
You might catch me touching feet down on both sides"
8
Ever since day number one
9
It's just me and where I'm coming from
10
Rites of Passage and Shadows on the Sun
11
My people, I stand before you
12
As a man with more true shit
13
Than what he knows to do with
14
I give it all to you, as long as you can promise me this
15
When its time, you will ball up a fist (like this)
16
Me and Anthony, we fill all the gaps
17
And are proud of what we make, regardless what happens
18
Fuck rapping, I sing off key
19
One thing you should never do is dis Ali
20
Because, motherfucker, there ain't nothing rougher
21
Then tryin to climb from the ruggedness swept under
22
I can run through every one of your blunders
23
Mistake number one is that your crew don't love you
24
I'll take a bullet for the Core or the Sayers
25
When me and my dogs out touring the nation
26
I spit with an intensity you have to witness
27
Look close, my blood on the back of the tickets
28
It's that religious, it's what I teach my son
29
How to read the Qur'an and how a party is won
30
We like, Doctor, don't get it mistaken
31
We call life out when we sit in the basement
32
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
33
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing
34
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
35
We call life out when we sit in the basement
36
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
37
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing
38
When line meets mine, we bend your girl's spine
39
Figure-eight status, she got back for days
40
The same old magic will not crack the maze
41
The lights changed since we anted up, pot has been raised
42
And I'm fucking with the hand I was dealt
43
Live twenty-five years to experience what Lazurus felt
44
If you drop three crumbs, I'll eat one
45
Feed one to the family, rest I get invested in my freedom
46
I battle through a part in this shit
47
With a wrist full of broken toothpicks, trying to call by the inch
48
You can either choose the heart or the fist
49
But you will connect with me
50
If your path ever intersects with me
51
The fire in the eye could never be held back (it's the same)
52
Pressure that made the Liberty Bell crack (it's the same)
53
Pressure that made my brother E sell crack (in the name)
54
Qu'ran, holy, rest in peace
55
My back is being watched by the only one on high
56
We stride in the party, hoods up, crossed eyes
57
Broke as what, but don't give a fuck
58
Because I feel I got the world by the nuts, uh!
59
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
60
We call life out when we sit in the basement
61
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
62
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing
63
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
64
We call life out when we sit in the basement
65
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
66
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing
67
Homeboy understand, I ain't mad at you
68
There's just very few things in life I know how to do
69
And this is one of them right here
70
And whatever comes up comes out
71
We don't put our hands on our mouths
72
I stand for what I'm about
73
Unknown but I'm still a soldier
74
Can't let them go home until I win them over
75
My youth was training, it's very clear
76
Every year, new city, new rules to play with (true shit)
77
New kid in school, didn't rule nothing
78
To this day I rap like I'm trying to prove something
79
Little bit aggressive when I spit a sentence
80
Until you get the message
81
You couldn't pay me to quit professing
82
Rocked sixty-one sold out shows, came home
83
And caught a bus to the sixty-second
84
Shirt sweated full of work ethic
85
Been in love with the shit since I first met it
86
Rhymesayers is the first to come, last to leave
87
Ain't no tricks up our sleeve, this is what we believe
88
We like, Doctor, don't get it mistaken
89
We call life out when we sit in the basement
90
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
91
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing"
92
Doctor, don't get it mistaken
93
We call life out when we sit in the basement
94
We self taught, it's as real as you make it
95
Any way you look at it this shit is amazing
