Lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, what we gonna do is take it back right quick Take you on this journey, back to the basics South Jamaica, Queens, Roc Raida It's easy, Grind Music It's easy, Bad Boy Uh, uh [Verse 1] I been a nigga starvin', not into nine-to-fivin' Married the struggle so when trouble made my muscle harden My momma overtimin', I'm in a soldier's mind in my eyes Got permanent scars from cryin' But now I'm, headed for better, better suited for cheddar Never fold under pressure, settlin' debts and whatever's clever Thе stress is under suppression, my aggrеssion's in a sentence Is seventy-seven seconds to serve you a lesson So when the, pen hits the pad from now and forever It's a vendetta, I tend to be a over aggressor Underachievers, the stature is amateur status And with the madness I create I bring peace to the atlas I made a, promise to Thomas I was gon' be poppin' Watch in a minute with this rhymin' and my outright defiance And non-compliance, with a science I define through my writin' Sharp as a knife with an alliance, I could clash with the titans So bring it on [Interlude] Okay, what we gon' do right now Is take it back to 1989 Slick Rick the Ruler Knamean? Big Daddy Kane and all that Aasim in this mo'fucker It's so official, so official, Grind Music Uh [Verse 2] Look in my mind of malice, rhyme is my type of ballad Fly is my type of style, it coincides my type of talent Challenge should bring the balance, Aas' gotta save the palace My kinda callus is like racial violence And with the voice of a rebel, therapeutic with the uses Your music I school a stupid, Uz' in sight is too confusin' The world where the rules vary, very similar to various artists One in particular who chooses to be different 'cause Shit is bug 'round the way, niggas smokin' hash Bearin' the pain of walkin' barefoot over broken glass Havin' these younger girls ho for cash And sellin' jums, robbin' niggas for funds'll turn shit over fast Get on your mission, no more wishin', this is business My lyric is ammunition, keep my spirit outta prison My vison to cure the sinnin', Aas' studied like religious Stigmata for all that listen, your mental must pay attention 'cause [Outro] Yeah, yeah Feels so soulful in this motherfuckin' booth right now Yeah, I'm Aasim, nigga I done told you 2005 is all mines It's predetermined, like the end of the world, you cocksuckers Never fallin', uhh
