background of a street dude mind of a scholar

that's what damian lillard said back on his cover

but this beat goes farther back than that, to another baller

to one of the greats named jay z back when he endeavor-d

to pass his time by creating rhyme's that helps turn away crime

the true message in motive to redefine

attitudes about the other side, the one that always grinds

but we're not here for a history lesson or an acknowledgement

of how the rap game is on it's decline

these are known facts and we know that you know that

it's important we bring the levity and avoid the abstract

even though this beat is sad and some underestimate it's impact

we're about to turn it on it's head and just show you our knack

 

 

 

 

 

the joke could be that the beat is sad and it's important

that we show how we can make it funny, and that we're about to get

there but we never actually get funny and just "run out of time"
