Blackalicious — We Did It Again

[Verse 1: Gift of Gab] Once upon a time reality was black and white Couldn't fit in with the younger kids and parties after nightfall Felt like they was gave instructions how to handle life While I felt my way through darkness and I didn't have a light y'all Then I felt a thing a thing something that would ignite all Energy within above my head appeared a light-bulb Soon enough the mic called Soon enough the night club Gathered as I rapidly knew that I found the right one Slice some dice some rappers falling like some Dominoes but I don't know to me this shit is like fun Got into a love affair and music is my wife done Took me on a journey deeper than the sewage pipes run Now and then some might come frontin' like the light gone Dimmer till the inner forces inside me deliver one more nice one Feel how fresh and new it is again Get a glimpse after this we'll be doin' it again [Hook: Danielle Dubious] We did it again Just living in the dream Giving all to make it happen We did it again Still shining til it's done But the story has only Just begun [Verse 2: Gift of Gab] I can give it to you raw or give it to you fly So eccentric with the penmanship unlimited supply Intricate with this I spit the gift a lyric driven guy I've been sentenced to this bid since I was just a little guy In my infant crib working hard to elevate my penmanship Out with all the garbage rappers with no talent in with this When it comes to lyricism it begins and ends with this Every time they try to cut us out we send them into bliss This music love affair is infinite My mental is Not meant to drift away I'm in your home and on your internet All in your head you can't escape My flow is falling in So when this is done we'll take a break and do it all again [Hook: Danielle Dubious] We did it again Just living in the dream Giving all to make it happen We did it again Still shining til it's done But the story has only Just begun We did it again We did it again [Verse 3: Gift of Gab] Every time you think we finished, then we doin' it again Doin' it to win Blackalicious, who is it but them True it is intuitive and you are losin' it with them Rhymes infusing with the music get me lucid with the pen Using rhythm too original infinite kinda MC Up in your mind again see I'm finna try to end The career of rappers who do not identify with them That are getting high up in the sky and spitting flyer gems It is Gift and I am him My intent I invent Violence for you suckas die and then die again So you can not rhyme again Silence violins play I grin as they enter the grave they lie up in Call me king or sire when I ascend I avenge music Seasoned like a hymn I be spewin' it like venom It's stupid to pretend you could do it like we been Doin' doin' it We doin' it, we doin' it again [Hook: Danielle Dubious] We did it again Just living in the dream Giving all to make it happen We did it again Still shining til it's done But the story has only Just begun We did it again Just living in the dream Giving all to make it happen We did it again Still shining til it's done But the story has only Just begun [Outro] All I gotta say is, the champ is here!
