Slum Village - The Line lyrics

[Hook: Focus] I put it all on the line everyday Cause its all that i got and I'm not trying to lose So i recall in my mind everyday Why i did what i did i had a lot to prove You see I'm here and going nowhere o.o.o.oo [Verse 1: T3] Nah ain't no opposition , never second to none Slum has begun a moving piston Overcoming slum is running We optimistic even if fail like a transmission slipping I'm rolling i go the distance Engine smoking , I stay in motion I'm so efficient I had my a** out , no pot piss in My intuition , told me not listen , n***as send you up the creek swimming With hidden agendas and bad intentions If i stumble that's a brief intermission cause i don't coincidentally Lack I'm back it vengeance My proclamation is to prove that i rock the nation Threw my occupation , make moves and not complicating Heart ache and pain , I just embrace it When i was a product of blame and hatred i didn't Ask why i face it Now I'm reading the Tao , taking a bow Flipping my style cause such and such couldn't figure me out Out [Hook] [Verse 2: Young RJ] I'm like a bu*terfly i can fly high to the top of the sky Came out of my cocoon to shine bright over the horizon Rising like the sun up in the atoms I drop cla**ic To bad you didn't believe Told you nigs i had a trick up my sleeve here it is New team, new sound Whole different flavor take a taste pa** it around Taste good don't it k**ing my opponents I know I'm getting on yo nerves like sera-toning Gone and run yo mouth i hear the chit chatter Im to big for small talk so y'all don't matter You can be a giant like Goliath Ima still triumph, like a flame walking through a fire Never a flaw rock hood to bos raw Spit it like cane from bogota My n***as vanguard I'm out [Hook] [Verse 3: Illa J] I'm never goin away Had a burden on my shoulder But it was tooken away All of a sudden I'm on top of the world/ doin my thang* Who is the blame Or what is my aim What am I saying I'm just saying..that I'm in it Cause I love it skip the fame I'm just playing..wit a nickel I don't care if lose it Not paying any attention Just Vibin to this music No lens to straighten my vision Like I'm tryna hit a target And I don't care if I miss it Is it rocket science no not really I'm just really gifted Just a spiritual weapon Give you a lyrical whippin S..Villa b**h I'm Reppin Yes..I'm da secret weapon I know you hear da bomb tickin I'm explodin any second And when it happens You can call it da big bang I'm the new king Me and dilla switched chains Be dem Yancey Boys John and James [Hook]
