Timeless

(Verse 1)<br>My style has no birth record<br>You might know when my record was born<br>And how I played my favorite classics till the needles was gone<br>And truth say, you might know how my moms pushed in `76<br>Turned my world view inside out and one day<br>But this goes back further than that, further than rap<br>Before that first hospital slap<br>Way beyond the confines of joy and pain<br>Further than pride and shame<br>Older than the foundation of the food chain<br>To bore the understanding of an equal cypher<br>With the consistency of daylight, I shine so bright<br>I check 1,2 but I ain`t talking about no mic<br>I check 1,2 and calculate the science of life<br>To add things right and take care of my business<br>Allowing me to handle my pleasure like a pirate does treasure<br>My rhymes are burried too deep to measure by the sands of the hourglass<br>In otherwords built to last<br><br>(Hook)<br>I keep it timeless because I take my time with it<br>Respect goes out to civilized and committed<br>Cuz once you hear the capital J, rap it`ll stay<br>With you for awhile and it won`t go away<br>I keep it timeless because I do my thing<br>Regardless of the stress that your life might bring<br>Cuz once you hear the capital J, rap it`ll stay<br>With you for awhile and it won`t go away<br><br>(Verse 2)<br>What do you do when you got 22 things to task<br>And 10 minutes to deal with it<br>And for the first 5 you bullshitted<br>The scenario really best describes our folks<br>Its like devils got plans and niggaz got jokes<br>Like an underdog team got hopes, but<br>Hoop dream buzzer-beaters choke when y`all triple team pointguards go nuts<br>Power corrupts<br>And its a shame cuz the hardest working squad gets left with the donut<br>The front runners say "so what?"<br>They can`t back their home team cuz they got no guts<br>And high scorers check stats but they still have yet to win<br>Plus tomorrow they`ll be riding the bench once again, you see<br>In this game I`m not trying to be the M.V.P<br>Cuz the enemy`s the clock and the referee<br>Because its obvious the world is out of order<br>I hope you wake up cuz we in the forth quarter y`all..Timeless<br><br>(Hook)<br><br>(Verse 3)<br>Who pays dues plus sales tax<br>Just to paint a picture with a thousand words<br>Only to find out your visions is blurred<br>Its absurd but still I observe<br>How the brilliance of Blackness is missed when a sights unheard<br>As old rhyme styles fester like dreams deferred<br>New styles just might shine at God`s speed indeed<br>But some still wear the mask that grins and lies<br>Hides cheeks and shades eyes but I`m not suprised<br>It`s no disguise cuz my five eyes remain all wise<br>No excuse cuz the innocent is still down south, no escape<br>We remain robbed, killed and raped<br>Till you take back your mind and extract the lies<br>But until then, I still utilize my pen<br>To lead the land from the slaughter and a horse to the water<br>Continuing the face the stress of lifes test<br>With rhymes that impress the best cuz my mind is timeless<br><br>(Hook)
