Pharoahe Monch - H2O lyrics

[Sample] Memories, like the corners of my mind Misty watered colored memories Of the way... [Intro] The good old days Reflect with me You know what I'm sayin' We just sittin' on the porch In Watts Helicopter flyin' overhead Lil n***as in the street throwin' dirt rocks Feel me [Verse 1: Ras Ka**] Archaeological logic, discovered Van Gogh's fossils To paint a perfect picture Twelve years a slave, twenty years a spitter Thirty seven years a n***a Hopin' to see ninety bein' a strong black figure As I stand and deliver Breathe fire in Japan, Godzilla By popular demand till the fans see that God got iller I'm like Cornel West with scales on my chest You superman thugs, caught Kryptonite to the flesh See the hood got me stressed, takin fists to the neck Multiple arrest then I discovered KRS Let us begin, what, where, how or why Will all be explained and if not, fam we die Losin' granny was the hardest Good women I f**ed and left broken hearted Turned up being retarded Transformation to activist from an artist Like young Mellala who the Taliban would target Shot in the head just cause she wanted to read Till every person s** trafficed is free, we gotta bleed (Turned down for what?) Cause n***as tell on themselves nowadays Film it on Vine then wonder why crime don't pay Candid outlandish, the dirty pistol I brandishe Glad they didn't have camera phones when I was young doin' bad sh** Yeah, I just dated myself I'm no spring chicken but why you hate on yourself? For five minutes of fame Find yourself like Kat Stacks, knocked out the frame Locked in a cage And b**hin' it's true, you backwards hustlin' homie, you snitchin' on you I'm on my Descartes, Diop, Be-Bop, Aristotle Prehistoric talons twist the top off the bottle My era is cla**ic Tyrannosaurus Rex in the lab sh** Leimert Park so I pa** it Jura**ic [Hook: Rakaa Iriscience] I can think back but life goes on so keep livin' Can't take a thing back but life goes on so keep livin' There are couple things, that maybe I would if I could Forgive myself for, I'm unforgiving Yeah, I throw this drink back but life goes on so keep livin' [Verse 2: Pharoahe Monch] In order to recollect exceptional memories I developed a way to transform brainwaves into binary code from energy Translate algorithms, converted the information to digital Uploaded compiled files of wisdom Then projected them on a screen, vivid beautiful scenes Extract orchestrated symphonies and heavenly dreams The alchemist In kindergarten when kids was asking about alphabets I was immaculate with astronomy, mastering calculus Seized from my parents during a scene when I was seven They experimented on my brain up until I was age eleven And at age thirteen I learned to literally stream Molecules and teleport molecular structures with the beam These are my memories, soak them in with a notion To fast forward the bad and play the good in slow motion Now I astral project an*lyze Guam Study Agent Orange bring back secrets from 'Nam The government asked me to track the locals on Islam They asked me the whereabouts of Boko Haram And cracked my brain for catastrophic chatter that's insane To extract data from satellites on missin' Malaysian planes My memories, my memories, my memories Although from only just a week ago My memories, my memories, my memories [Hook]
