Rap Genius by Edisto iLLizhii Lyrics
[Hook x2]
United by fate these the ties that bind
Got my eyes wide shut cuz my third eye blind
Embedded in my heart are these lines that rhyme
A rapgenius like this is hard to find
[Verse 1: Edisto]
A dash of lupe and Kendrick splash in the southern Pacific
That equals spitting exquisite but somethings missing what is it
That old, Carolina soul, like J.Cole
Add it to the mix whisk it quick see what unfolds
So obsessed with the role like Beyonce Knowles
Since a child it has been my destiny to spit these flows
But you know how it goes, dumb down with bling on it
Only like if a rapper really do they thing on it
You can switch it up and even try to sing on it
Search your heart like it was sponsored by bing on it
Deep space 9 when I rhyme going cling on it
Eyes couldn't see me with that thing on it
L.Burton, the show goes on but for your niccas
Its curtains, fall back from the beats I jack
Keep that, its jurgens mentalities matador keep the bull away
Im working yea, im working
Awaiting the great American, rap resurrect
Like where they go wrong, contemplating the retrospect
Cuz they songs lack structure they need, an erector set
My verses know to wreck, mp3 CD cassette
Oh you mad cuz I'm styling, Danny brown XXX
Sales are going down thanks to clowns,ripple effect
Reduce the music you neglect and start,using ya intellect
Guilty til proven innocent
Rap Genius
[Hook x2]
United by fate these the ties that bind
Got my eyes wide shut cuz my third eye blind
Embedded in my heart are these lines that rhyme
A rapgenius like this is hard to find
[Verse 2: DNick ]
Inspired by a little old school
You could say that
Got my own style that I rap
And they play that
Took a trip with Rakim to broaden taste in music
DCiano
Dream chasing
Inspiration ‘I could use it
Ye said be confident
Graduation helped me through it
Something I was lacking
But now I’m making music
Bino spews passion
So does D-Pryde’s music
Just quoting Big Sean
Fact is “Yeah, I do it.”
Uh
If your passion ain’t behind your rhymes
Then homie you are wasting time
Cause’ who believes in passionless corporate rhymes
Industry is taking times
Drizzy Drake
Hope they tell me lies
Cause truthfully in the music biz
Lies are easier to take than the truth is
Take advice from Lupe
Be you
Avoid the cool kids
Yeah
It’s hard to be a genius with all these rap dummies
Cause’ all they do is bite lyrics and my time is from me
Sometimes I swear music is like segregation
If you’re different
They won’t listen and it’s devastating
I bet they’ll listen when I spit swag
Cause’ the glass they all look through is freakin’ cracked
I’ll take these lessons and I’ll put it into practice
Rap Genius
Lessons in a tracklist
[Hook x2]
United by fate these the ties that bind
Got my eyes wide shut cuz my third eye blind
Embedded in my heart are these lines that rhyme
A rapgenius like this is hard to find
United by fate these the ties that bind
