The Craft - Blackalicious[00:00:00]
This Craft this beat this rhyme this vibe[00:00:09]
This style they say music gives new life[00:00:12]
From a source inside that is forever flowin'[00:00:15]
This stage this mic this crowd this show[00:00:18]
This life I've been given a gift tonight[00:00:21]
And for that I vow to be a vessel[00:00:24]
I didn't have to be given the gift to rip[00:00:26]
I'll never master me I know that it's from him[00:00:29]
Or her or it dimensions that sit waitin' to sift through me[00:00:31]
I fall short still it hits me swift[00:00:34]
I didn't have to see I coulda hit the lick[00:00:36]
I coulda drifted it quick I coulda quit so quick[00:00:38]
It's really a trip I guess I was picked[00:00:40]
I don't know what I did to deserve a ride like this damn [00:00:42]
I didn't have to eat I coulda been so thin[00:00:44]
I didn't have to be quoting these sentences[00:00:46]
I didn't have to reap the work put in but then[00:00:49]
Even the work in itself was such a blessin'[00:00:51]
I didn't have to see the planet tip to tip[00:00:53]
I didn't have to make a livin' writ to writ[00:00:55]
I didn't have to dream and then begin to live it[00:00:58]
And for that I vow to be a vessel[00:01:00]
This Craft this beat this rhyme this vibe[00:01:02]
This style they say music gives new life[00:01:06]
From a source inside that is forever flowin'[00:01:08]
This stage this mic this crowd this show[00:01:11]
This life I've been given a gift tonight[00:01:15]
And for that I vow to be a vessel[00:01:17]
I give thanks for my rhymin' ability[00:01:20]
I don't front like it's not a responsibility[00:01:22]
I can open a mind if the youth will listen to me[00:01:24]
I'm not goin' to front like I'm on some killin' spree[00:01:26]
And as hard as the times are God is livin' through beats[00:01:29]
That come not from minds but that travel through spiritual reasons[00:01:31]
Some of the time I feel like it's not even me[00:01:33]
No money can buy gateways to infinity[00:01:35]
Still I'm hungry to shine when I know I should let it be[00:01:37]
And I want but I have every single thing that I need[00:01:40]
So help me align self with soul and then I'll be free[00:01:42]
To sculpt and design verbal styles and experience freedom[00:01:44]
This Craft this beat this rhyme this vibe[00:01:47]
This style they say music gives new life[00:01:50]

This stage this mic this crowd this show[00:01:55]
This life I've been given a gift tonight[00:01:59]
And for that I vow to be a vessel[00:02:01]
Let go do what's in front of you[00:02:04]
Then let go then do what's in front of you[00:02:08]
This ain't leisure although it feels[00:02:13]
It is a duty a way to live another way to give[00:02:15]
Another way to just have communion with the source[00:02:18]
Of the sun and moon and a way to pay the bills[00:02:20]
Displayin' skills I take it real serious[00:02:23]
The vibe's so mysterious not just one more day to kill[00:02:24]
And I could lose my connection[00:02:27]
If I do not respect it enough fade away it will[00:02:28]
Day to day it gives energies[00:02:32]
That replenish me if I believe and I say it will[00:02:33]
And act on it 'cause action is the key to freedom[00:02:35]
Only way to be a leader lead by the way you live[00:02:38]
