Next level lyrical insight is a moment away.
Lyrical Analysis of...
From Pavement To Mic
- //Maybe a little intro talk or just let the beat play...
- //Ame 0:45 to 1:30 approx.
- I don't wanna lose..sight of where I came from
- Those restless nights up grindin til the day come
- Writin til my brains numb and my fingers bleed
- Until my body's on it's last ounce of energy
- Cuz on this microphone nothin gonna hinder me
- It was meant to be like hip hop was sent for me
- But then it sentenced me to life, without parole
- Now these streets expect me to renounce my goals
- I'm too devout with flows, so it'll never stop
- Until my lungs cave in, blood pressure drops
- Shit, I'll probably spit bars as my stretcher rocks
- Then I'm takin on Satan, I'm forever hot
- I'm the truth like I've got trouble tellin lies
- And stay in the streets like them double yellow lines
- I don't wanna lose..so dammit, I fight to win
- All the way from the pavement to the mic, I'm him!!
- //Hook 2x 1:30 1:52
- From pavement to mic I will rise
- No fear, there's no compromise
- In this journey no matter how long
- I'm raising the stats of the average joe
- //IshTALKER 1:52 2:38
- From the moment I met you I said I'm rep you I don't wanna...
- Fall from the highest to my lowest to smell a scent of red roses I don't wanna...
- Lose...lose...lose...lose... Everything I hold closest
- My one and only, can I be your Laureate Poet I don't wanna...
- Lose you over nothing or watch you slide off like a glass slipper I don't wanna...
- See you ride off in a pumpkin and then act different I don't wanna...
- Find a rap mistress, for these exact reasons I don't wanna...
- Lose...lose...lose...lose... Cause you caught me with my 2nd wife
- Resist having to make life decisions I don't wanna...
- I gotta move the needle, the flow's deficient I don't wanna...
- Lose...lose...lose...lose... Because I'm not in Pole Position
- Starve cause of malnutrition, baby listen I don't wanna...
- Hear you cry me a river, Stand &Deliver, handle your business I don't wanna...
- Be in the trenches or sit on the fence I don't wanna...
- Lose...lose...lose...lose... You on my watch or off the clock
- Your my Lovers Rock, I just need to know... Do you really love me...
- //Hook 2x 2:38 3:00
- From pavement to mic I will rise
- No fear, there's no compromise
- In this journey no matter how long
- I'm raising the stats of the average joe
- //Neo Arno 3:00 3:45
- Broken glass beneath my step with footprints on the pavement
- Now the stage feels my tread, my mark on this arrangement
- Blessings come slow but I'm giving it time
- From the street to the mic I've risen my lines
- And like 'Pac said about the rose that grew
- Spitting concrete thoughts, I blossomed in the booth
- What's happy living, some days I'm barely sleeping
- "Squeaky wheels get the grease", they'll never catch me slipping
- Trapped by self deception I needed retrospection
- My pen was my shrink before I ever met one
- On the shoulders of giants I weather the storm
- They let me see farther than I could ever alone
- I dont wanna lose, the [meanest flower](.) might blow
- Too many faces in the sea to drown on my own
- People want real no need my verse to be perfect
- If you can save somebody then your struggle was worth it
- //Hook 1x 3:45 4:00
- From pavement to mic I will rise
- No fear, there's no compromise... compromise... compromise... com...
