It's Been a long time - Rakim ( T-Notes Remix )
**ALL RIGHTS GO TO RAKIM **
I don't shoot up,
I shoot down,
Fucking rappers who wrap your head around,
Materialistic thoughts and young women,
Like Nas said, Topless,
Broads are not shit,
Nauseous thoughts.
when I brought this ,
Insanity to battle the ,
Agony humanity,
has handed to me,
So hand me the, M.I.C,
And watch me do my thing,
Cuz it's been a long time, Since It,
Shot strong rhymes,
And fought hard nights,
And an open mic is what i'm looking for,
Need I say more,
When I attack raps out the wazzoo,
Thought you, Can Yahoo ,
The syllables I take time to master,
Hate crimes and rappers,
Often go in the same category,
Taking over territory is the least of my issues,
When i'm looking for a better story to tell,
Around the campfire,
And it never gets to me when they say,
My lyrics suck more than a vampire,
I do my best to utilize satire to the fullest,
Unlike a flattire, I keep my body going,
And my high spirits flowing,
Cuz I never knew a love like this,
I'm down for peace, but i'm ready for violence...
