Revelations - Masta Ace[00:00:00]
At times I don't know who I be[00:00:12]
And when I look in the mirror it's like I don't know who I see[00:00:14]
Am I even moving at all[00:00:17]
Cuz I swear I can't tell if my life is improving at all[00:00:19]
Every time I got a pen in my hand[00:00:23]
I forget every time before that one has been in my hand[00:00:25]
And I write for the moment get it tight how I want it[00:00:28]
Get the right lawyer on it cuz I might wanna own it[00:00:31]
I tussle and I fight I hustle and I write[00:00:34]
I struggle every night with every muscle in my mic[00:00:37]
I'm in this rap race trying to eat the cheese[00:00:40]
But y'all don't know my name like alicia keys[00:00:42]
My face ain't familiar neither is my music[00:00:45]
If sh*t don't soon change I be the one to lose it[00:00:48]
I drink a little liquor tryin' to heal my nerves[00:00:51]
Cuz y'all don't listen here and feel my words[00:00:54]
But something's wrong with y'all ain't nuttin' wrong with me[00:00:57]
And happy in my life is what I long to be[00:01:00]
And happy in my life is what I'm gonna be[00:01:02]
What you see in me is what I was born to be[00:01:05]
From the day that my moms first birthed a child[00:01:08]
She didn't need the world to make it worth the while[00:01:11]
So I don't need no magazine to reach the pinnacle[00:01:13]
Screw a review and you can eat the interview[00:01:16]
Cuz that's what y'all seem to tend to do[00:01:20]
Them cats you cover all seem identical[00:01:22]
Through it all I weave like the park was here[00:01:25]
And shine underground cuz it's darkest there[00:01:28]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:01:31]
Try and listen[00:01:35]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:01:37]
Try and listen[00:01:41]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:01:42]
Try and listen[00:01:46]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:01:48]
Y'all industry niggaz should be feeling ashamed[00:01:53]
Y'all like he ain't still in the game he's stealing the name[00:01:56]
Oh wait just a sec that's straight disrespect[00:01:59]
Take sh*t and get and don't be late with the check[00:02:01]
I'm on the underground trying to scrape and scrounge[00:02:04]
And sure it feel good to take a break and lounge[00:02:07]
All these ups and downs like a roller coaster[00:02:10]
Life is a b**ch I'm trying to hold her closer[00:02:13]
I'm killin' every ni**a in sight sight[00:02:16]
The bigger the dog the bigger the fight[00:02:19]
If you really say you know me then you'd figured I might[00:02:21]
Try to use my anger as a trigger to write[00:02:24]
I put it down simple on the paper or pad[00:02:27]
Try to take a stab at what is making me mad[00:02:30]
I jump on the track and I ride it through[00:02:33]
And do it for the people that are tried and true[00:02:36]
But y'all so fickle y'all love me today[00:02:38]
And tomorrow love another cat and shove me away[00:02:41]
But most ain't committed to do it how I did it[00:02:44]
In the way that I did it in the way that I spit it[00:02:47]
It's like my burst of truth and it might hurt the booth[00:02:50]
But first the proof it gave birth to youth[00:02:53]
Rap's like trying to take a piss in the wind[00:02:55]
I'm just glad to know that some of y'all are listenin' in[00:02:58]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:03:01]
Try and listen[00:03:05]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:03:07]
Try and listen[00:03:11]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:03:13]
Try and listen[00:03:17]
Keep movin' along keep bringin' it on and keep singin' the song[00:03:18]
