[Intro]
Haha, the past or present is no better than the future
Make sure you use them wisely and don't make dumb decisions
What you may perceive as right is often wrong
Short term gain is what the devil will always offer
Monopolic systems have a clever disguise
Those magic tricks are real magic you don't wanna mess with
Always read your user agreements
Crap, I know you won't give a damn about this speech
All you are interested in is that I can rap
That's the only reason you like me
But these tricks right here that I cite
Have no real magic in them
Damn, kids are pretty stupid these days
[Verse: Kopyrite]
A kid with no jacket, blistering in a world so cold
Tenfold, disease stricken, sweat on his temple
PAID IN FULL, a Christmas present, shelter was a blessin'
A LICENSE TO be ILL it seemed, the future of raining(reigning) with message
Festive LABOR DAYS pa**ed by, the sweat from the heat still wasn't dry
Over time he built a band of followers, true MIDNIGHT MARAUDERS
RAISING HELL with mind games, tricks and deceit
Mental BLUEPRINT was screwed with, authority handled repeat
The treatment f**ed em' DOGGYSTYLE, entering holes like projectiles
Man stood up, left without ease, thinking LET'S GET FREE
RADIO all over town played the sh**, he had UNFINISHED BUSINESS
While his life was smothered like a BLACK STAR, a** was kissed
He stopped to think that realizing IT WAS to be WRITTEN
AMERICA's MOST WANTED, seemed to be the vision
TRAIN OF THOUGHT, 36 CHAMBERS, LIFE AFTER DEATH, possibly
He let God be the judge, a SLIM and SHADY tree
BLACK ON BOTH SIDES, he took a shot at the apple, ready or not, READY TO DIE
Then he realized the future of paying back, and then he closed his eyes
[Outro]
Interpret something as you like
Do it
I don't care
Life is meant to be open-ended
So when you come up to me
Don't ask me what this means
You know what it means
Subliminally
