[Hook: Professor P]
It's so amazing, nah, really, it's so amazing
I used to write rhymes in a basement
I used to write rhymes in a basement
It's so amazing, nah, really, it's so amazing
I used to write rhymes in a basement, check it...
[Verse 1: Professor P]
When I wasn't on the right track
(voice sample: you were there) to help me right back
(voice sample: and no one else) could ever love me like that
We vibed to you after school by the bike rack
Just getting busy till the night came but life change
Quickly like a dice game, its an ugly picture in a nice frame
Hiphop is still my wife's name
I held hands with the mic through the rice rain
This ain't no wedding speech, but
Cut the cake and share every piece (every piece)
We just got a vows renewed
Everything before this was just a prelude
92' was when our eyes met
We married back when Timbuk released "Life Stress"
No red roses and no white dress
No I do, just one two, mic check...
[Hook: Professor P]
It's so amazing, nah, really, it's so amazing
I still write rhymes in a basement
I still rhymes in a basement
It's so amazing, nah, really, it's so amazing
I still write rhymes in a basement, uh...
[Verse 2: Professor P]
When I couldn't find the right track
(voice sample: you were there) to give me sight back
(voice sample: and no one else) could ever love me like that
Its that rugged street corner rolling dice rap, Swedens finest
They say the game need change, we're here to redesign it
Read the signs, free your minds, its a heated climate
The mountain is steep, but he did climb it
They underestimate the sk**s and we don't even mind it
See we grind with conviction, never mind the position
It's that Kool G Rap rhyming tradition, uh
That Rakim rhyming tradition, uh
Timing, precision, fine line intuition, uh
You haven't been waiting in vain
Summer came late and I'm taking the blame, but now
The sun is out and we're making it rain
Knowledge, not money, we ain't faking for fame
We stay breaking the chain
Patience will help you find ways to maintain
So live, 05, we created a lane
To provide a soul vibe for the sake of the game, you either
Make it or don't - I chose the first option (first option)
So i can take my mom purse shopping (purse shopping)
Put my heart in every verse dropping
So when life flash before my eyes it's worth watching
We kept going now the set's growing, connects
Holding checks for the best flowing, showing respect knowing
There's no replacement, we're on the road but we ain't
Going on no vacation, homie its so amazing...
[Scratch outro: DJ Ak**es]
Talib Kweli: Hear the words, peep the flow, check the cadance
What you've heard is a pro, it's so amazing
Lil' Fame: It's so amazing
