Special (feat. Thesis)

Packing my bags, cause a brother on the road again

Maybe we can do this another time, but I'm rollin in

Start my motor man, I'm about to head out

Said a little prayer to myself, and then I sped out

Thoughts of my family has got me hesitating now

Thoughts of insanity has got me meditating loud

Insane anger, brothers headed for danger

Looking at my life, it's unleaded and straight dangerous

It's all good, small hood slang to dust

Another brother wanna aim and bust

So, I'm out the hood, and I'm living in a better city

Cause things go round like merry go, so let it go, it's n' gritty

And they wondering where the crime went

Locked up, incarcerated, most of they time spent

Behind bars, I rhyme bars as necessary

Sort of scary, how they living dwelling in cemeteries

So special...

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

I can feel it all in my bones, won't leave me alone

It just goes on, and on, and on

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

It's all in my soul, won't let me go

It just goes on, and on

First of all, I thank God for my life

Shouting out to both mommas for addressing the stresses

Of wrong and right, when the pressure was on

Discipline was given, to get in the zone

To get it while the getting is good, instead of getting it on

So I let it be known, from suburbs to the inner city

Gritty, you this year living on curbs

Many a lyrical slur, plug it in, and appease the masses

Music got them all fiending for more, like please pass it

We breeze past the past, now we classic

Beyond y'all platinum plaques and shrink wrapping

Made it nine miles without Rabbit

Mad when the run around was getting rerun, what's happening?

The lock's getting popped on the door of the industry

Cause you were on the bill, and wasn't bringing no energy

Now we bank like synergy, remedy for the times

When an artist ever lacking in rhymes, and so I figure that I'm...

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

I can feel it all in my bones, won't leave me alone

It just goes on, and on, and on

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

It's all in my soul, won't let me go

It just goes on, and on

Sit back, relax, and watch me spit the rhyme like the gospel

I'd rather spit on the mic than keep my lips on a bottle

In a hostile environment, a brother keep trying

Surrounded by relative fossils of classic music

Got the youngest asking "Who this?"

The old school, I'm from the seventies

Maybe making music got these cats telling me it's cool

But nothing special, not that next level

So I laugh it off, crack a smile, times have changed

Yo, it's been a while since my brain been stimulated

Musically penetrating my soul, send a shiver down the spine

Reason for the rhyme, to relax the mind

Like giving sight to the blind

I put the world in a bind, the unsigned hype

And now I sign autographs, all day and all night

Keep them haters out my sight, got nothing but love

And I'm a still shine bright

Make the world feel special when I'm rocking the mic

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

I can feel it all in my bones, won't leave me alone

It just goes on, and on, and on

This feeling in me has got to be

(Something more than special)

It's all in my soul, won't let me go

It just goes on, and on
