frey - napoleon da legend lyrics

[napoleon da legend verse]
i miss rappers who passed prodigy and guru
half*a*mil mass appeal he never knew though
pumpkin head big and pac nipsey too
big pun big l dmx and odb from the wu
black rob and heavy d kid hood and shock g
phife dog and j dilla fred the god and easy e
lord superb and stack bundles
used to watch the dvds
too poetic left eye proof and eyedea
lots of em passed before
i move to nyc
mf doom craig mack and biz markie
lots of young rappers dying
every time i read the news
death is part of life
we straddling a short fuse
that’s why i love to travel
just to brighten up my viеws
and every chance i gеt
i be shouting out my crew
thank the true soldiers
part of this beautiful culture
carry on tradition
and doing what we supposed to
ain’t seen n0body make it out this earth alive
hip*hop gave me a reason
i thought it was worth a try
many styles we kick
we survivors of this time
versatile levels
we put our lives within these rhymes
pharcyde said it best
this life is a bizarre ride
artifacts raps inspired
from living on the wrong side
and it’s a miracle
the jewels that’s created through that
and it’s epic solely
from the fact we made it
through that
ill slang and voices
from blacastan and sean p
in fact i say it with pride
always a fan of my peers
and i’m a always keep the standard
i’m a stand on my square
soundtrack to my life
the holy grail in my ears
and for years serenaded
by the illest emcees
and every time i rock
carry their spirit with me
[ghostface k!llah talking]
just like, everything is same right now
to me, i’m a thinker
a real thinker and sh*t i think of
a lot of sh*t that motherf*ckers
don’t think about
so when i hear the same sh*t
like i don’t be inspired by the sh*t
that’s here i listen to it
and i deal with it
cause i’m surrounded by it
but it don’t make me wanna
grab the pen
so when i hear good music
or somebody throw a nice verse
that that that’s what inspires me
i’m from the era where
i’m old school you know what i mean
i’m i’m the rakim and the kane’s and em
i’m still from the era when um
when you had biggie out there
and nas and mobb deep and all these
great guys snoop dogg you know what i mean
these guys had you like
oh sh*t especially nas
like yo you heard that sh*t
it make you wanna go write
i miss the brother that made me
that made me wanna go write
cause now it’s like
yea i write but sometimes
you need a battery sometimes
[napoleon da legend verse]
huh i wasn’t mad
even though you made decisions
on both of us’s behalf
i knew being a husband could be a drag
still i stuck with you
knowing d*mn well
the world could never enough with you
i was man enough to love you
open my heart to you
guess being too nice just made me a mark to you
i tried to talk to you like maybe we can fix this
but it would always be awkward
like you trying to drive a stick shift
so i thanked you and handed you a pink slip
time to turn the page
i think it’s time to end this
we had a good run
i’m a take my talent elsewhere
no malice hope you find yourself a nice guy
i want that for you
maybe my soul mate is out there too
time to set sail take my music somewhere new
where i’d be
understood more fully
don’t mourn for me
i’m looking forward to be free
and be me to the fullest degree
and that’s truthfully not untruthfully
thankful to have
people on my corner who root for me
you wasn’t feeling me no more
that’s news to me
the truth a set us free
just gotta let it be
like john lennon
no used to fighting endlessly
and i might just be sight seeing
sight unseen
slightly scarred
some things you can’t unsee
focus on what fun to me
i long to be
laying on beach somewhere
well accompanied
grow my company
where i can live more comfortably
help the kids and work on projects humbly
open some doors get fresh air
another lung for me
breath it in and let blessings come to me
feels amazing honestly
everywhere i look is opportunity
got a lot more to live before my eulogy
good friends clothes and shelter
food to eat
what else i need?
