But incidentally, my energy heavenly
Like when Kanye came out
The blood in your vein that gets spilled and, runs in the drain
Asking us to pick ourselves up and become thunder
That's right, my flow one and the same, the joy and the pain
The man of your dreams and your nightmares commandin' your vision
Seems like the first time I heard him was like
I get you hot but stay cooler than the night air
But it seems like I've known him forever
Your father, your brother, your lover, your friend
I'll do your hit in your kitchen and you're relief pitchin'
I believe the scratch that I know, this ain't my full potential
Keeping time with his hurricane beat
Yeah, they say you can't please everybody
Through deaths and dawns
You're everything man
On your eardrum, we got a new heartbeat
Feel the heartbeat, feel the heartbeat
Let's go, yeah, they ain't know what that sound like
On your eardrum, we got a new heartbeat
Can he be so ill? There ain't no, pill or no remedy
I lay claim to your spirit, your religion, your belief system
Scoping lightning from his pores
Do it leave only to become a star in the sky?
Listen, listen, a man always punctual with his mouth
He who has moved through mornings and midnights
I'm a hustler, I'm a gangster and a rebel with the rank of a general
This kid proficient in every position
All city, all night I'm enjoyin' the fame
Strumming mists from clouds
'Til it's quite clear like light beer, yeah, I'm standin' right here
There were no remembered witnesses to my doings
The maker of memories posses the recipe to your fate
Your alpha and your omega, your beginning and your end
To document our bones, our blood, our lives
Yo, what becomes of a dream deferred
Listen to his revolution of syllables
I'll be here forever, put that on everything
Especially when 'til death do us part, like wedding rings
First time I heard him, I was in Japan
You're everything man
Only usin' 10 percent of my mental on instrumentals
I try to fit it in the same rhyme
But realize, I can't be everything to everyone at the same time
Do it breathe? Do it got a heartbeat? Is it alive?
Listen, listen to his exact wings
I came all the way from Puerto Rico just to see Talib Kweli
Feel the heartbeat, feel the heartbeat
Him, Mos Def, all of them man
In the battle between God and the Devil
You're everything man
You're everything man
The Reflection, 'Reflection Eternal'
My name, the burner that destroy the toy and the train
Make no mistake, there ain't no escapin' your destiny
I guess was when I started to listen, I hate to say that but
New York native and serious Talib fan
That never makes it to the world to be seen or heard?
I need them out here in my life
