Lyrics:
Oh my god I can't believe my eyes.
Wake up everybody you know, come on watch the garden grow.
See you when you get there
Two Fifteen
Downtown for the win whoa!
Sean C for the tempo.
Portugal for the intro.
This is Arctical Don Disco
From the one choir, calling shots like an umpire.
Where I live yo man,
I done lost mad kinfolk over gunfire through the window.
As a young squire who become Sire
I had no way to tell what I was in for.
I was five nine like Royce
With the giant voice like Mike Winslow.
Never been quite like “them” so I’m on my own time.
Mind darker than a coal mine,
Thoughts deeper than a gold mine
So I'm out here slangin on this blade,
Hoping that I don't get cut
By these police making raids on those of us who know what's up.
My lil homies, my lil sons got them keys and they got them drums.
Making superstitious runs on them insufficient funds.
No more rules to this here shit, toddlers packing a revolver,
How the hell you robbers gonna rob the robber?
See you with that heater
You sweeter than peach cobbler.
If it ain't about that paper, then man that ain’t what Reek habla.
Man you know what's goin, they say woke about that dope.
Ask them fiends about them keys, about that coke, about that smoke.
Two fifteen my city man. And we it from round here,
If it's crazy where you at then, it aint no different round here.
Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes.
Wake up everybody you know, come on watch the garden grow.
See you when you get there
Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes.
Wake up everybody you know, come on watch the garden grow.
See you when you get there
Reminiscing over old times.
Sip a little bit of Oban
When the wind blow like a landmine.
Balled up fist.
Nah, Who the fuck’s this calling on the landline?
Back back like a hairline.
I don't really want the air time.
I don’t wanna smile for the camera.
Damn I just wanna see my fam rise.
I can feel when a man lies.
Trying to grow old and wise and I'm still fly like airlines.
Stay sharp like samurais.
Dip low like Cam’ron.
Big show when it’s slam time.
Word to my n**ga Anton
Bogarting through this door
Hoping that it don’t get shut,
By these police making raids on those of us who know what's up.
My lil uzi weighs a ton, man I truly ain't the one.
My lil junior straight from juvie, make a movie gangster run.
Y'all confusing here this shit, with some television drama.
None of y’all Lil Mamas, touching Mr. Trotter.
Even with that heater, you sweeter than peach cobbler.
Real ones out here winning, you swimming in deep agua.
Click pow, I’m a rebel just for kicks now.
Been down with the get down.
You aint saying shit, sit down.
This loud. 21 pound my town.
Man we it from round here,
If they bout it where you from then it aint no different down here.
Listen.
Oh my, god I can't believe my eyes. Wake up everybody you know,
Come on watch the garden grow. See you when you get there
Oh my god, I can't believe my eyes.
Wake up everybody you know, come on watch the garden grow.
See you when you get there
At the end of the day, everybody got good and bad. And every culture and every race
But you also gotta remember, where Your people at.
So you always just wanna love your people unconditionally no matter what.

[@seanf9067]

The Project Pat cadence and then quoting lyrics from Cheese and Dope is crazzzzyyyy. Never knew a rapper like Thought could appreciate a rapper like Pat. But they're fans too I guess.

[@Amoses97]

they have worked together and known each other for a long time too th-cam.com/video/DhwoDZyEjVc/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=MichaelCheatham. But Thought listens to and can do pretty much anything

[@CdeKongonya]

Black Though is just the GOAT thing that ever happened to Hip Hop. I feel lucky to witness this magic in 2020

[@michaelmchugh631]

Saw the Roots everywhere in America. Remember that lyric, “change the order, theirs no way we can rock after them”.
In 05’ saw The Roots open for 311. After the set we left. People were like where are you going.
I was like. , all the talent just left the stage.

Great lyricist age like wine.
For the love of the art!

[@warlockCommitteeMeeting]

Heads knew Black Thought was the GOAT a long time ago... hopefully he never melts down and destroys his reputation like Kweli on Twitter...

[@warlockCommitteeMeeting]

@MBA 84 I lost all respect for Kweli after seeing his abusive behavior.. I guess it is true artists gotta be a little crazy to do their thing..

[@nasibnwalker6759]

Kweli a chump talk all that b.s on the internet, man please

[@edwardcortez656]

Nah man, Thought said years ago that he's not into social media, dude is just a dope soul that continues to evolve as the years go by. He's gonna be around for a while. All three volumes of streams of thought are the best shit I've heard in years

[@warlockCommitteeMeeting]

@@edwardcortez656 I heard that the Black Thought & DangerMouse project might see the light of day this year.. but I hear that every year..

WTF is this!?!?!?!?!?........I was done man, I was about to jump. I had given up and here you come grabbing me by the neck and slamming me to the ground. Who gave you th right to care? Who told you i needed you. My vision was clear and you contacted me. I dont want to continue but i willl because you care. You actually care! And through osmosis i have a reason now. Thak you for yanking me off the ledge. I can feel my strength rising........Im back broutha'

[@Nobody9627-e6x]

Give me shit, but i think black thought has more talent with rap then Em. The culture and all. His beats have a classic blusie feel thanking the roots. He the Jimi Hendrix of the game today

[@doodiemac100]

I do not care for that double time flow
