Testo The Glorious First Step - KR$NA
Testo della canzone The Glorious First Step (KR$NA), tratta dall'album Sellout
Now look where I'm at
Ask yourself, was you the one supportin'?
'Cause if you weren't, you ain't gon'
Be there when I get to where I wanted
Deceivin' mind of an evil kind
It's been an uneven ride through this shit they deeming life
It's like a demon tryna feed at night
I got two sides that don't seem alike
Maybe I'm bipolar
Maybe I'm a cross between 2Pac and Jody Highroller
Maybe I live through the high and die sober
Maybe this life's colder
Maybe I'm just too old to cry, so I'll smile when my time's over
And I deserve this spot as far as I'm concerned, bruh
You mad 'cause I'm the reason your girl
On her knees gettin' carpet burns, huh?
You ain't stoppin' words from comin' out of my mind
I'm on the grind
If this rap was my work, then I guess I'm doin' some overtime
My purpose is served, I'm hopin' these nerds buy my album
Critics criticize me, say I shouldn't be rappin'
'Cause I'm a product that was never meant to happen
(Never meant to happen)
I used to listen to Illmatic before rap was real ratchet
I'm backflippin' on tracks like verbal acrobatics
Deliverin' raps through these broken needles
That'll keep 'em trapped like fiends and addicts
Me now, I'm the baddest that came out of your mom's TV cabinet
Recognize the name, never mistake 'em with counterfeits
This is the glorious first step in a
Plan to take over your consciousness
A potent brain that's numb to pain like Novocaine
To the dudes I used to rap with, look what the flow became
Look what the flow became
Look what the flow became
Let's break it down, I think I got somethin' to prove
For all the people who believed that I wasn't so fucking cool
The dudes that robbed me when I was
Fourteen, starin' at a gun, I was numb
All I had in my mind was, "Fuck it, boy, just run"
It's a cold world and this is ice
I'm waitin' for the day that I can get
A girl without sayin' somethin' nice
Money talks, bitches listen
Middle fingers up, I'm shoutin', "Fuck the system!"
I'm here at the rap game's insistence
Now just relax, I promise, this procedure's gonna be painless
As I proceed to paint pictures with this stainless steel Desert Eagle
To mess with people that I came with
Show 'em that I am as ungrateful as I am grateful
The contradiction is life-like, I'm Mike Tyson fight night
I'm tryna see this through like bitches in white tights (That's right)
Double the dose till the rhyme's lethal
My mind's equal to a crime scene, a homicide fiend, I'm quite evil
You're just five years deep, I'm primeval
(I'm primeval)
I've spent countless nights tryna make this damn witty
Tryna derive some meaning out of life's ambiguity
But it's such a pity that most of us will never make it
It's a pity that paper can strip people naked
Dreams never stand a chance in front of obligations
It's a shame that behind those bright eyes is a mind that's so vacant
And now you wonder why they told you you were born to be great
When this monotony makes you feel like you were born to be slaves
Like you were born to be slaves
And everybody got advice, wanna put in their two cents
For the ones that grin with envy, I was born with blue skin
Your chances are too slim
I need to cop a new whip, the one that got the lady with two wings
Recognize the name, never mistake 'em with counterfeits
This is the glorious first step in a
Plan to take over your consciousness
I said, "Recognize the name, never mistake 'em with counterfeits
This is the glorious first step in a
Plan to take over your consciousness"
