Reflection Eternal - In This World lyrics

[Intro] In this world (This that feeling) What's happening to love? (It's that feeling you miss) I'd like to know (It's that love, it's that pa**ion) (Tone they don't get sh** like this no more) [Verse 1] Welcome to my longitude and latitude My attitude is shaping my surroundings: Skyscrapers, public housingThe sheep is running from the sun The wolves is howling at the moonIt's tragic how you in the street Cause you ain't got no avenues When it come to rapping who's the baddest dude? (In this world)You still don't get it This a recession, what recession? Dog, we been stressingsh** been a mess and we been dealing with this depression Since way back, but you ain't got to say that That's the greatest lesson Slave to our possessions Greed the devil favorite weaponFight to the d**h, only the greatest left (In this world) Let's get it [Hook] Lordy, lordy, lordy lord I been hustling really, really hard Get up off my a** start making some moves Put two and two together start paying my dues I got to get up for it, stand up In this world If sk**s sold truth be told, I'd probably be, lyrically, Talib Kweli (Jay-Z) [Verse 2] I get respected by the best MCs (In this world) The recipe for my success is: one part pain and sufferingTwo parts brains and hustling Sprinkle it over Hi-Tek production We bubbling like volcanic eruptions You better buckle in Push the panic bu*ton Come get your momma to tuck you in You know we did like no other did it (In this world) You gots to get with it [Bridge] In this world What's happening to love? I'd like to know [Hook] [Verse 3] Ayo, I grab the mic until my hands develop the calluses My style is bit I only see myself with John MalkovichMy grind miraculous, rhyme for slums to palaces Facing all my challengers, raising the black power fistHere to eliminate the counterfeit (In this world) Add it up it don't amount to sh** I paid my dues kept the receipt for taxesAlthough we stack it we stay stuck in the bracket It's like a straitjacketMy rebel tactics got the planet spinning off it's axisThe devil laughing when you lazy, man get off your a** and Talent don't mean nothing without all the practice(In this world) [Hook]
