What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Moving at the speed of a solution
2
Bleeding in the streets as we're breathing the pollution
3
They're saying that we need a revolution
4
But their passion is reduced to all-caps on a computer
5
Hey, every sixteen I make a sick scene
6
Blood splattered all on you shirt like a Miskeen
7
Y'all niggas trippin' like mescaline and mixed greens
8
My flow cleaner than the Sistine, pristine
9
You going green like Al Gore with 'em
10
I make algorithms that got Malcolm in 'em
11
God's favorite, I'm sick as a doctor's patient
12
We live in a cold world, my job is to rock nations
13
My occupation? Elation, a celebration of rebels
14
Raise the levels and the decibels flagrant
15
It's too amazing how we be blazing, son
16
Our flowers is the loudest, they crowd around us
17
But cower in the shadows of the towers, boy
18
Take a tour with it, bake the raw
19
Where the beats so savage
20
That it's knuckles gon' scrape the floor
21
Make a call, all the rocket ships taking off
22
Jah, Wu, gun music playin' when we facing off
23
Yo, I plaster the nation, causing evacuation
24
My manifestation got 'em patient from how I keeps it amazing
25
See, I'm the reason niggas need some training
26
While I'm inflicting the pain and making it suitable for any occasion
27
I'm very engaging soon as I'm awaken
28
Quickly back you up and bag your bitch
29
She's reminding me of Sanaa Lathan
30
Rely on the hating while I'm smiling and waiting
31
That's when I embrace 'em
32
If you try to front, you'll be highly mistaken
33
The mightiest making of a classic, alrighty, I'll face it
34
My psyche is ancient and I'm hiring, so try me, I'm patient
35
Sorry, I'm lying, face it, I'm back for the taking
36
I'm urgently giving niggas the courtesy of smashing their face in
37
(Damn, can you cut his mic off?)
38
See how we got 'em buggin'
39
Cause they can't believe what we have in the making
40
Shit so historic, got me goin' for it while I bang the nation
41
And do niggas greasier than a slab of bacon
42
Bitch, you still cooking this pork in this house?
43
Stop cooking that damn pork in this house
44
The hell going on in here?
45
Take a tour with it, bake the raw
46
Where the beats so savage
47
That it's knuckles gon' scrape the floor
48
Make a call, all the rocket ships taking off
49
Jah, Wu, gun music playin' when we facing off
50
These rap niggas is bitches, nothing but suckers to me
51
Sacrifice myself for the music and let them suffer through me
52
Your weak product is nothing to me
53
I only feel effects when I fuck with Louis
54
Yep, I get buck in the studio like I'm Evil Dee
55
Pulling strings like the Muppet movie
56
Shining my light like Mos calling his mother Umi
57
Who's the hottest regardless of who's flaming?
58
We ain't talkin' 'bout the best until you mention my name
59
Who're you kidding? The truest spitting
60
I'll break you like a mirror so it's clearer
61
That we don't believe in superstition
62
These new additions need supervision
63
Thinking that they can spit it in the booth like me
64
What are you stupid? Listen
65
I've been official, it's been official, I'm too consistent
66
I make a claim cause I'm too official for euphemisms
67
Staying in the cut like a new incision
68
I'll put you on your ass like True Religion
69
So give it up for the truest living
70
Take a tour with it, bake the raw
71
Where the beats so savage
72
That it's knuckles gon' scrape the floor
73
Make a call, all the rocket ships taking off
74
Jah, Wu, gun music playin' when we facing off
