Thank you very much
Took 'em back in time like Sankofa, Sankofa
Alright
'Cause your spirit possessed us
Reflection Eternal for real
How it is and how it could be
I tried to told you the rhymes run over emcees like Land Rovers
We outlasting, from middle passage, touched down in New York
Yo, anybody can tell you how it is
The fire is trapped in a belly, ready to pop like canned soda
God bless you
When we hit town, y'all niggas pack it up
You know what I mean?
These cats drink champagne and toast to death and pain
Thank you very much
What we putting down right here is
Yeah, and the trumpet is blown
Yo, you blessed us
Chasing but they never catch the wagon
God bless you
Yo, we the reflection of our ancestors
Plus they lack a certain knack for rapping
Thank you very much
Like a whip, hydro planning, hydro on the brain and maintaining
You get replaced in this game, by Kweli
That's an old proverb from Zimbabwe
Cincinnatay, Big Ohio status what you thought
That's how we get down, straight smash it up
Rising above the crabs in the barrel
Yo, got to tell you to your face
'Cause your spirit possessed us
Think you poppin' next year nobody will miss you
Thank you very much
Thank you very much
Way too used to living in death's shadow
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, one more time
So life has been a constant battle, battle
Yo, we the reflection of our ancestors
Like slaves on a ship talking about who got the fliest chain
God bless you
We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us
Thank you very much
My thoughts is too advanced for the artists on these labels
They had potty issues and snotty tissues, we been rockin'
God bless you
Yeah, alright, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
Like rerunning what's hap'ning
Since back when
We hit the target accurate star, shit, back it up
Game changing into subtle shit, we remain blatant
God bless you
Thank you very much
We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us
If you can walk you can dance
If you can talk you can sing
And with that
Yo, you blessed us
Money it's classic these bastards try to treat us like cattle
We stand over the Atlantic, looking broad like a man's shoulders
These cats is no match
Place the face with the name
God bless you
They come sweeter than sabal and softer than mashed potatoes
Thank you very much
We stay on point like the best arrow, arrow
