my first too, absolute life changer this song was. Got me into EA, Atmosphere, Aesop, Bro Ali, Murs... basically my entire daily playlist owes its existence to me hearing this song one time.
Agreed. Abilities rocked this track!!! So did Eyedea. This is one of the best E&A songs, period. It's a showcase of the best of the two and the way they worked off of each other.
Pretty sure he says "second here you thinking you could sitting on the brink of this" Starting at "second" there are 15 syllables back to back (16th notes) but the provided lyrics only have 12.
Almost all the lyrics are wrong... "The inner city where they'd die to be a superstar, I'd rather be galaxy but how you see is so dependant on the medicine, the rhetoric and how inventive any second of your thinking is, I'm sitting at the brink of this"
@bubbles030998 Haha yo that was my fault. I usually don't say it that much but now that you pointed it out I did throw man in there a shitload a times. Prolly just wasnt payin attention or some shit my bad.
Bakeszm m I think you got Em and Eyedea mixed up there bro ahahah. I honestly can not believe you just said Eyedea was emo =') That just proves that you don't listen to much of his music and really understand his lyrics. Em on the other hand quite literally just whines and bitches in most of his songs. if its not about being a psuedo junkie he is rapping about his deadbeat mom and dad as well as his whore ex. Idk about you but that sounds a lot more emo than what eyedea spits. Eyedea lyrics are more subtle and hidden through metaphors, where as em just pretty much just blatantly says shit like "I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye, no I don't, on second thought I just wish he'd die" sounds pretty emo to me
guys are u kidding me i just finished the rap an memorized it an uploaded it on instagram to tell me almost half these lyrics are wrong just no ..... if anyone actually wants to see me rap ask for my instagram im pretty good to say so my self im only 12 ha i love eyedea see u wont hear that from any other 12 year old lol
Lol I can't even understand you...and If you think I can't do better well I can rap Mac lethals alphabet rap up to the letter O and age do sent matter since I'm 13 so.....
jbotos1...... im facepalming myself from your lack of appreciation of rhyme placement and lyrical genius.. "every one's a critic but only a few of those are willing to accept greatness for what it truly is" - sean campbell
I think that was 108 words in 16 seconds and a considerable amount of those words had 3-4 syllables. Impressive...
The real Rap God.
This
true
NICOLAS LOPEZ I think your ears need checked. You've got no eyedea.....
CaptainZombiee 💙💙💙💙 love the pun, you had it right the first time
Much love for eyedea fans, just like me
Toy Girl word!!! Eyedea is a genius plain and simple. Oh well not everyone is smart enough to listen to such big words and overwhelming eyedeas.
This was the first song I heard from E&A. I try to introduce people to these guys, and they don't get it, think it's whack. But I just smile.
+James Fambrough I know man I try to get people as hooked as I am but they don't get it
James Fambrough you can't introduce with this album. You have to start them out with by the throat. It's raw emotion is universal.
I know how you feel. Musical incompetence smh
i get that reference.
my first too, absolute life changer this song was. Got me into EA, Atmosphere, Aesop, Bro Ali, Murs... basically my entire daily playlist owes its existence to me hearing this song one time.
I think this is probably Abilities best work. The scratches in this song are insane and so well timed.
Agreed. Abilities rocked this track!!! So did Eyedea. This is one of the best E&A songs, period. It's a showcase of the best of the two and the way they worked off of each other.
Eyedea is gonna get me through this quarantine shit
RIP Eyedea, a consistant part of real Hip Hop died with you.
Eminem is great but I like Eyedea better because he stayed true to the underground. Underground Hip-Hop will always have my heart.
Damn straight
"Success ain't only based on self esteem-
It takes the sense to differentiate between
What's yours and someone else's dreams ! "
Headshots.... rhymesayes.... man i miss this Hiphop... RIP eyedea
The last few lines that repeat are
"With Nothing but space,
In front of my face,
I’m no longer running in place."
i cant even read it that fast. i love the abilities beat yet again
@Grega Mohorko Very good job man. Perfect transition.
this is like a high dose of natural high straight to the brain
Very nice videos with the lyrics, thanks..cheers
Got Flows? Song is dope as hell, sweet sampling too! E and A all day yizall!
holy shit he just encompassed wut is wrong with modern hip hop, and people, and shit... life!
The Best of The BEST!!! RiP Michael Larson.
Haha, thank you man! I can barely pronounce some of these words, Eyedea's a beast.
WITH NOTHING BUT SPACE IN FRONT OF MY FACE IM NO LONGER RUNNING IN PLACE!
Just keep working at it you'll get there, I think it took me like a week to get that part and I still screw it up if I'm not paying attention.
My new goal in life is to be able to keep up with this.
Amazing lyricist and artist
Good job oliver you really brang out you lungs for this one
It's cool, but no I haven't found the lyrics yet. But thanks for the source man, I appreciate it.
Cause music is supposed to make you SMILE :)
Lucy Ford hey Lucy u seem to be a hip hop enthusiast like me. Text me. On insta-Anantam to chat
pure genius.
rip mikey
@BlokPartyProductions ha i'v been at it for hours and im only able to keep up till the end of the first fast part
@rwcuser Haha, I might try it man, do u use WMM?
@rwcuser Yeah... that's the problem I have searched everywhere for the lyrics... and I couldn't find 'em...
I find a lot of the lyrics are wrong. check rapgenius. they have it closer to being right.
We inovate to generate an intracate, innerwoven tapestry of musical and ethical epiphanies
RIP EYEDEA!!!!!!
If you search 900bats there's a Word file Aes' uploaded with all the lyrics for the album.
dude fucking kills it, beastly flow and lyrics
:D took some practice but i finally keep up with eyedea.
@rwcuser Not sure if I can do it with WMM, I'll see when there's the time though (exams year so yeah..)! And I'll give you all credit, of course. (:
What UGK song is that line "sick of the same ole thang" from?
I'm in Chicago banging this shit
First girl that karaokes this is my wife *snort?*
Snort ... you are still with me right?
well i know these comments are really old and you prolly found the lyrics already, but if you didnt go to Rapgenius com the lyrics are there.
@Creap0fluigi Imagine doing the yellow thing word for word, you'd probably freak the fuck out
@Creap0fluigi I used Camtasia Studio, but WMM is enough to do this. If u make it, be sure to show it to me :D
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@Uncovered3rdEye94 sorry but this waz buggin me WHY DO U SAY/TYPE MAN ALOT!?
And that literally is "is anyone out there"' sampled
Great video, but just one complaint: It's awesome missle, not awesome mission
@DGAF666MSK Well if you ever do find them, you can send it to me if you want ;)
#LEGEND
@rwcruser Hey, Can you make a lyric video for:
Hail Mary Mallon - Garfield. I would appreciate it very much bro:]
@Uncovered3rdEye94 Thanks :)

I think I'm about to hit beast mode..
Are all these lyrics correct before I attempt to learn them 😂
Hahahahahahah!!! Hope so

HE WWENT HAM
eyedea hologram no need to diss the great
"Eyedea is better then eminem"-Alexis Ahrman
***** yeah ever since shady disappeared. But eyedea was on a different level spiritually in too it. Em acts like a comedian
massparody Both are prime.. if anything Eyedea is a lil more emo... but then again... Eminems new stuff is also pretty sucky!
Bakeszm m I think you got Em and Eyedea mixed up there bro ahahah. I honestly can not believe you just said Eyedea was emo =') That just proves that you don't listen to much of his music and really understand his lyrics. Em on the other hand quite literally just whines and bitches in most of his songs. if its not about being a psuedo junkie he is rapping about his deadbeat mom and dad as well as his whore ex. Idk about you but that sounds a lot more emo than what eyedea spits. Eyedea lyrics are more subtle and hidden through metaphors, where as em just pretty much just blatantly says shit like "I wonder if he even kissed me goodbye, no I don't, on second thought I just wish he'd die" sounds pretty emo to me
+Keith Graham Even shadows have shadows emo song and im a long time listener.
Why does everyone have to compare them there is no comparison eyedea is obviously in a different world of rap shut the fuck up already
must learn the lyrics!
@Creap0fluigi I'd probably go nuts :D
