[Verse 1: Finale]
I watch the skyline
In contrast with orange overcast so fast
It commands street attention and moonlight ascension
‘Til the Sun rise and give the interventional intermission
For nature on this planet we breathe on. If “C.R.E.A.M.” was your
Theme song, your weeks seem long, four-day zombies
Morph into Friday winos, hit the scene
Walk with a lean, no magic bean to get me a giant
A far-fetched carpet to get you flying—say farewell
To your fairytales, only crime in your rhyming
Nobody dying. They’re mining, got the diamonds you rhyme about
Every line got ‘em laid out, but you won’t hear it
At the photoshoot for your latest slay-out. Caught the face
Of poverty seen, where all they got is Scarface
And Gotti dreams. Designer jeans and the chains won’t help
Designers scheme for change. Relate to what I’m saying
Explain how current events interrupt things
Even with the heaviest scene, struggle’s a beautiful thing
When toddlers roam free in the street and know
Four-letter words better than me. Copy and paste
The ghetto in your city of choice, get a voice. I’ve studied
Thunder from another man’s hands, sirens, violence
Every cop is a fireman, life in turmoil
It’s petty as a president going to war for third world oil
However you get through, (it’s all beautiful)
[Hook: Finale, Invincible, and Both]
Open your eyes, your ears
Your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper than crime
Feed your mind, read the signs, find it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all
Beautiful, all beautiful music. Open your eyes
Your ears, your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper
Than crime. Feed your mind, read the signs—it’s all
Beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, all beautiful music
Underneath
It all, me and beats involved, feature flaws
And I’m teaching y’all it’s all beautiful, yeah!

[Verse 2: Invincible]
Analyze my world from every angle. A dew drop drips
In a petroleum puddle and it twirls the rainbows, the ripple
Effect of a single event, a brutal arrest in the Land
Of Liberty taking her dignity or what little is left
Cops get acquitted free, triggers civil unrest
Epitome of how the city be a riddle complex. Lives
Interconnect just off of the night shift, half-asleep at the wheel
Driving, might slip at the slick of an oil spill
Same one the dew drop hit while 2Pac spits out
Of Rovers rolling past on the shoulder, bachata blast in Corollas
The music overlaps in the grey mist, post-industrial
Playlist, sirens inspiring the howling of stray pits
Not full moon skies, eyes bloodshot-red
From court sessions, we pull boom, lens zoom, a photo-
-graphic memory, negative develops in an instant
To resistance, the only prescription remedy
[Hook: Finale, Elzhi, and Both]
Open your eyes, your ears
Your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper than crime
Feed your mind, read the signs, find it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all
Beautiful, all beautiful music. Open your eyes
Your ears, your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper
Than crime. Feed your mind, read the signs—it’s all
Beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, all beautiful music
Underneath
It all, me and beats involved, feature flaws
And I’m teaching y’all it’s all beautiful, yeah!

[Verse 3: Elzhi]
They say
“Lounge, homeboy. You in the danger zone where they
Arrange to blow brains for a chain with stones, gator
Shoes.” The war stories don’t make the news—thank
The crews that’s full of lost n***as that hate to lose
Feeling like life ain’t as precious as a Lexus
Or a Benz, Jordans, Timbs, and a necklace
That’s why we’re reckless, running the block, and with
Protection is them extras, the gun in the sock, the trunk
The glove, the pants, near the genital sack, where criminals
Pack and stack and ain’t finna go back ‘til they’re
Found dead with blood on the ground shed, head
Pouring down red, and the story ‘round spreads. They
Drop bodies quick like John Gotti’s clique
That’s word to Demetrius and Maserati Rick—shit!
There won’t be none of that. Run, in fact, when the Sun is flat
For fun, they’ll take your gun, gat, hat, and hundred sack
[Hook: Finale, Invincible & Elzhi, and All]
Open your eyes, your ears
Your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper than crime
Feed your mind, read the signs, find it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all
Beautiful, all beautiful music. Open your eyes
Your ears, your mind. It’s deeper than lines, deeper
Than crime. Feed your mind, read the signs—it’s all
Beautiful, it’s all beautiful, it’s all beautiful
It’s all beautiful, all beautiful music
