Lyrics

Yeah... y'all thought the silence meant I was done?
You celebrated too early. Asani is back to set the record straight.
I never left... I just waited for the noise to die down.
Now, the master is back in the building.
Yo Dee Jaaay... DROP IT!
I came back because I hear you young cats imitating Hip Hop,
You perpetrating a fraud, STOP IT!
Don't play with the craft if your heart ain't in it,
Step Back! And Listen, let Asani Ali show you how to spit it.
When I come hard, I come hard, I don't play son,
Pass the Mic and let Asani Ali show you how it's done.
From the streets of Rio to the lights in Dubai
They thought I left the throne, but the king never died
I walked away from the gold, but I kept my soul
Now I’m back in the booth just to take back control
(Pass the mic, son!) I’m back for the crown
(ASANI ALI!) — [Crowd Shout] — I’m shut-tin' it down!
You playin' with the craft, but your heart ain't in it
I started the race while you're tryin' to finish.
From Buenos Aires to Japan, they remember the name
I'm a Global Citizen—worldwide in this game.
I dropped the mic once, but I’m back for the glory
To school the haters and finish the story.
Listen close, let the master deliver
Asani Ali—the truth is the giver!
From the streets of Rio to the lights in Dubai
They thought I left the throne, but the king never died
I walked away from the gold, but I kept my soul
Now I’m back in the booth just to take back control
(Pass the mic, son!) I’m back for the crown
(ASANI ALI!) — [Crowd Shout] — I’m shut-tin' it down!
Check the cadence, the resonance, the veteran presence
I’m teaching lessons, manifestin' the hip-hop essence.
From the Favelas in Brazil to the shrines in Japan,
I’m a Global Citizen with the world in my hand.
It’s The Resurrection—the return of the pure and the gifted,
While these amateurs are faking, I’m keeping the culture shifted.
I don't just spit bars, I architect the sound,
Twenty years in the making—now come reclaim the crown!
From the streets of Rio to the lights in Dubai
They thought I left the throne, but the king never died
I walked away from the gold, but I kept my soul
Now I’m back in the booth just to take back control
(Pass the mic, son!) I’m back for the crown
(ASANI ALI!) — [Crowd Shout] — I’m shut-tin' it down!
To the haters in the shadows, keep whisperin' my name,
You were hopin' I was finished, but I’m fuel to the flame.
You speculated on the exit, now you’re tremblin' at the entry,
I’m the ghost in the machine, the guardian of the century.
I’m here to stay, no more walkin' away from the throne,
Asani Ali is back to take back what he owns.
The mic is my scepter, the booth is my sanctuary,
I graduated University while you still stuck in elementary!
From the streets of Rio to the lights in Dubai
They thought I left the throne, but the king never died
I walked away from the gold, but I kept my soul
Now I’m back in the booth just to take back control
(Pass the mic, son!) I’m back for the crown
(ASANI ALI!) — [Crowd Shout] — I’m shut-tin' it down!
If you know, you know.
