Windmills
Reborn of Thought
[Hook]
For everything I’ve done wrong
I’m only right ‘till I’m wrong again
Reborn of thought, whose thought was gone
The more I’ve failed, the more I’ve learned the man
Whom I say I am
Reborn of thought, whose thought was gone
[Verse 1]
I see myself in front of crowds as big as if you can imagine
Your life without the possibility of a distraction
My state of mind is controlling my thoughts;
To reach a level of emceeing, no emcee has ever crossed;
From going into places they don’t wanna hear my voice
And put a rhythm to their body like it doesn’t have a choice!
And knowing who I am, is knowing who I’ll become
So even when I took a loss, I found the reason I won
The real loss is, I decide if I’m no longer in rap
"It’s everything I ever wanted," you can quote me on that
I’m living my dream right now as weird as it seems
For people who don’t love a beat enough, to know what I mean
Grew up a part of the first emcees where I’m from
That made a person try to be the person I already was
When a pair of turntables decorated your place
The only cut you’re gonna make is when you’re shaving your face!
Friends never used to talk about the good ole days
With a future so bright they had to put on shades
We had the same people out to fuck us over on assignment
To ride it out, hornier than inner city driving
On our own, or disappearing with time, that’s why I’m here:
Nobody has a spirit clearer than mine!
The kind of emcee, when all I came to do, is perform
They wanna battle like they thought they heard their name in a song!
I’m on a path that’s gonna redefine the meaning of rap
Until it’s easier to take your own life and come back
The only reason why the music’s getting harder to sell
Is cause it’s time they figure out they sound like everyone else
And it’s why
