[Hook: Sample from Nina Simone's "Feeling Good"] Birds flying high, you know how I feel Sun in the sky, you know how I feel Breeze driftin' on by, you know how I feel It's a new dawn, it's a new day It's a new life for me, yeah It's a new dawn, it's a new day It's a new life for me. Oooh And I'm feeling good [Verse 1: QS Zeus] I like spitting, let time and some light emit With rhymes written, like crimes, mine's the vice-gripping You like trippy? Then you hire me to fight a chicken The style's sticking to the mic, find the right to fit in If I was kidding, would I try to hide my iris heating? Yo, I'm the tinted, so stop with all your lies a minute Our records spinning, so stop with all your sloppy grinning I rob your pensions—to rock here's evolved to missions I'll sock your b**h in—try to stop a violent Christian Silent mission, not a governmental intervention It's my persistence. It's why I always sink my fist in And catch a jab to your abs—I stab your nervous systems With thirty pistons, the horsepower reverse emissions I'm first to listen, but burst in when the curtains lifting Immersed in this sh**. Star but I'll burst to shift, kid A new dawn is so long, y'all could of missed it [Hook: Sample from Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" and (Clint Westwood)] It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life for me, yeah (Yo, it's a new life for me) It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn, new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life for me, yeah And I'm feeling good [Verse 2: Benny Medicina] Yo, poetry is pa**ion made for freedom fighters Made from street to fibers, made for readers and writers, and seep deep through the iris We seep deep with a pipe to flee the bleak life that ride with The fire's in it for all those that took flight and then died in this DJ Curtis lays the beats, don't play the weak, display unique Put some razors in your team [to lift your fade?] but know you clean Here's the language strangle: mangy labels made you, take you Where you base your place and then, with fables, make you fake your angles Well f** that! I'd rather bust rap if you can trust in the fact
We'll bust with a mud bath before our front [?] You want fast? Go in a club, cousin, ‘cause we coming back People running at you, loving that—love ‘em back Yo, call me where sun is out. We going off and out this b**h Thousands thinking, “California styles'll sink our foulest sh**” And it amounts to this: a new beginning, so you choose your place Understand we brewing change—a new dawn, a new day [Hook: Sample from Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" and (Clint Westwood)] It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life (It's a) for me, yeah (It's a new life for me) It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn, new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life for me, yeah And I'm feeling good [Verse 3: Clint Westwood] I should tie a rope around the sun and let it drag me high above The ugly ruckus. Unlike Icarus, I'll pull the plug Then watch the darkness from the fall with a arsonist grin Charter the end to the martyrs and start it again It's too hard to live, too easy to die. You can move to blue skies The moon's tide [?] and still lose meaning to life Say goodbye to the days and nights behind you Tomorrow providing a light to guide you ‘cause, in time, d**h will find you Fools, that's why. Guess who rules life, choosing mind pollution? There's widespread confusion. I snuck inside with the lucid virus Spite the solution—I fight for the losing team You die—might of the TV screen—at the end of the longest line, screaming “What the f**! You s**ed the fun out of the fad” I ought to hit you with a bat for every Ginsu in my back But I'm happy in the face, laughing as I walk away Accepting what I cannot change: the dawning of a new day [Hook: Sample from Nina Simone's "Feeling Good" and (Clint Westwood)] It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life for me, yeah (It's a new life for me) It's a new dawn (It's a new dawn, new dawn), it's a new day (It's a new day, new day) It's a new life for me, yeah And I'm feeling good It's a new dawn, it's a new day It's a new life for me And I'm feeling good Mama, I'm feeling good
