      Ironic how I come to your comment after I planned to do an entire album using only this instrumental for all tracks. And all of them are going to be 🔥.

    Verse 1]
Follow procedures, the crowd couldn't wait to see this
Nobody been this long awaited since Jesus
Who wouldn't believe this-I heard the word on the street is
I'm still one of the deepest on the mic since Adidas
They said I changed the times from the rhymes that I thought of
So I made some more to put the New World in Order
With Mathematics, put your status above the average
And help you rappers, make paragraphs with graphics
Cause new days is dawning, new ways of performing
Brainstorming, I write and watch the night turn to morning
On and on and, I got the whole world responding
Rock, I keep it hot and blow the spot without warning
The Emperor, well known for, inventing a sentence
Full of adventure, turning up the temperature
Rush with adrenaline, how long has it been again
To be in the state of mind that Rakim is in?
    Verse 2]
When I'm out propping-either hanging or shopping-
People see me, stop, and ask me when the album dropping
The wait is over, in formation like a soldier
Like I told ya, greater stronger, now that I'm older
I broke the, code of silence with overloads of talents
My only challenge, is not to explode in violence
I'm Asiatic, and blazing microphones a habit
At least once during the course of a day, it's automatic
In ghetto apparel, mind of a Egyptian Pharoah
Far from shallow, thoughts travel like an arrow
Allah's monotony, so far they can't stop me
You know, Ra want property like Muammar Gaddafi
More thoughts than Bibles, recital, taught disciples
A sawed off mic, so words scatter like a rifle
Thoughts that's trifle, I'm busting these for you
Ayo, technical difficulties is through
    Verse 3]
When I flow tonight, I show them new heights, I go to write
They know I strike with new prototypes to blow the mic
Critics and biters, don't know where my source of light is
Still leave authors and writers with arthritis
Cursed kids like the Pyramids when they found the style
First to ever let a rhyme flow down the Nile
The rebirth of hip-hop'll be dropped now
Cause the crowd didn't hear the original in a while
So be alarmed, what you bout to see is the bomb
Like 3D in 'Nam, vivid like CD-Rom
Info kept like "internet.com"
My notebook's my bond like the Holy Qu'ran
Since I came in the door, said it before
But no I ain't down with Eric B. no more
At night the open mic be inviting me to rhyme
So, yo, I'm online; it's been a long time

      Timbuktu
      Over NIMBUS sauces flew
      Beams of light grew mild dew
      On shoes once living
      In other words there's a soul
      Substance that's narcotiaility take control

    I understand its not 1990 no more
    So many trends came and went they wound up out of the door
    But Im not looking back, Im about go forward
    Some brand new businesses, and new Goals to set
    I got big dreams working while I sit on a Jet
    The Newspaper always bad news, get this out my face
    Another black man shot, while a cop beats a Case
    The more things change the More they all stay the same
    Palestine was war time, 2020 dont change
    Another day another age I try to stay in my lane
    Tryna stay alive a little longer.... while I get paid
    To speak to the masses welcome into my church
    Being blessed with the words, while we go through a purge
    Everydays a fresh start, make the most out of it
    Brace yourselves Everybody, its about to get lit
    Ease back enjoy the ride and smoke that loud from your spliffs

    Lately my emotions been stroking my ego playing up my confidence affecting my conscience in multiple areas I’m becoming delirious can’t cover the hysteria and maybe from the outside it’s hilarious but I took it serious and that’s a fatal mistake to put my heart on display because the woman looked my way like I’m asking to be in last place playing cards from the start instead of sticking to the part of my section that I’m familiar with lacking discretion around all the cretins that’s buying my business about me and the missus we can’t even share kisses in the dirt away from work cuz with lack of shirts there’s some people in the park waiting to lurk n sure it doesn’t hurt my pride I still get to see my darling smile wide but knowing critics in the trees stops me from showing cheese even the slightest grin cuz I just want a private win but the eyeballs is silencing peering into in my mental tryna gain a residential but can’t make out the stencil

    many saga's
    been exposed
    but u choose
    Rose
    like a great man
    against the mic in my hand!
    time 2 expand
    with the respiratory of albino rhinoceros
    u in the club with foreign
    sausages
    while I'm with your jump
    in the back of her mind
    saying 120 is popping this

      saga
      still continues
      culinary
      what's on the menu
      Devincci I'd their code
      while ours is binary
      by all means necessary
      strap with UN's
      guns
      from exit 21
      dim dums
      help my Uzi weight a ton
      subtract the sums
      so we can add
      do the math
      division
      cut the grass low
      that's when u c the snakes
      hissin
      not of the grafted type
      my blood is cipher
      back hand slap ya
      with another chapter
      contact the pastor
      the next event is a natural disaster!

    Игорь Конягин. . Hace 9 meses. . Versículo 1] Siga los procedimientos, la multitud no podía esperar para ver esto. Nadie había sido tan esperado desde Jesús. Quien no creería esto. Escuché que la palabra en la calle sigue siendo uno de los más profundos desde que Adidas Dijeron que cambié los tiempos de las rimas en las que pensaba, así que hice un poco más para poner el Nuevo Mundo en orden Con las matemáticas, poner su estado por encima del promedio Y ayudarlos raperos, hacer párrafos con gráficos Porque nuevos días están amaneciendo, nuevos formas de realizar Tormentas de lluvia, escribo y veo cómo la noche se convierte en mañana y sigue y hago que todo el mundo responda Rock, lo mantengo caliente y exploto sin avisar El Emperador, conocido por inventar una oración llena de aventuras , subiendo la temperatura Acomete con adrenalina, ¿cuánto tiempo ha pasado de nuevo para estar en el estado mental en el que se encuentra Rakim?
    Versículo 2] Cuando estoy afuera, ya sea colgando o comprando, la gente me ve, se detiene y me pregunta cuándo se cae el álbum. La espera ha terminado, en formación como un soldado. Como te dije, más fuerte, ahora que yo ' m mayor Rompí el código de silencio con sobrecarga de talentos Mi único desafío es no explotar en violencia Soy asiático, y los micrófonos encendidos son un hábito Al menos una vez durante el día, es automático En ropa de ghetto, mente de un Pharoah egipcio Lejos de lo superficial, los pensamientos viajan como una flecha La monotonía de Allah, hasta el momento no pueden detenerme Sabes, Ra quiere propiedades como Muammar Gaddafi Más pensamientos que Biblias, recital, discípulos enseñados Un aserrado micrófono, por lo que las palabras se dispersan como un rifle, aunque eso es un poco, estoy buscándote esto, ay, las dificultades técnicas han pasado
    Versículo 3] Cuando fluyo esta noche, les muestro nuevas alturas, voy a escribir. Saben que ataco con nuevos prototipos para hacer explotar el micrófono. Críticos y mordedores, no sé dónde está mi fuente de luz. Todavía dejo a los autores y escritores con artritis. Los niños malditos como las Pirámides cuando encontraron el estilo Primero dejaron que una rima fluyera por el Nilo El renacimiento del hip-hop se dejará caer ahora Porque la multitud no escuchó el original por un tiempo para ver es la bomba 3D como en Nam, vívida como CD-RomInfo guardada como "internet.com" Mi cuaderno es mi vínculo como el Santo Corán Desde que entré por la puerta, lo dije antes Pero no, no lo estoy abajo con Eric B. no más En la noche el micrófono abierto me está invitando a rimar Entonces, yo, estoy en línea; Ha sido un largo tiempo. . 3 Me gusta.
