kommt durch seine Delivery eigentlich noch viel geiler wenn man die Tracks hört...
sein neues (3CD) Album wird hoffentlich auch demnächst veröffentlich... Thematik müsste bei dem Titel ja sehr cool werden
MF Grimm - Scars & Memories
[Chorus]
Scars and memories, memories and scars
I look up in the sky and I wonder where you are
Can't nobody diss my nigga, damn I miss my nigga
Memories and scars, scars and memories
Talk to me kid, cause I need some guidance please
Can't nobody diss my nigga, damn I miss my nigga
Scars and memories, memories and scars
I look up in the sky and I wonder where you are
Can't nobody diss my nigga, damn I miss my nigga
[Verse One]
I'm writing this letter from Lennox Hill Hospital
I'm so sorry that I missed your funeral
But silhouettes of you are trapped inside my head
As I lay in I.C.U. hanging on, wishing I was dead
Trying to convince someone to pull the plug and let it end
I lost my best friend plus I'll never walk again
Now that your gone it really don't matter
Becoming a star, becoming a superstar
God threw rocks at my glass heart and it shattered
I look up in the sky and I wonder where you are
Crying like a baby, staring at your picture
I'm mad at the world kid, I'm wishing I was witcha
The world is on my shoulders now the weight is kinda hefty
I love my little shorty, but my little shorty left me
In a few minutes time with the help of a nine
I went from king of the rhymes to the victim of crime
I gotta stop and wipe my tears G
Ayo Jay, respond, let me know you hear me
[Chorus]
[Verse Two]
Jay:
You will walk again, Jay Black won't let you down
As for rap, represent and snatch the fucking crown
Fuck most these rappers, no they're not your friends
So don't wait for no battle, bring the noise straight to them
I don't give a damn, if the nigga is your idol
Implant in his head that he better sing survival
I don't give a fuck about his crew or the fame
Each one of them niggas step to em and blow em out the frame
MF Grimm:
But Jay I want the days when we were just chillin
Riding around in cars, dressing nice and counting millions
Jay:
Those days are over for us, so understand me
My man when it's time to step forward and represent the fam
Like I'm Jesus Christ I'm paying for our sins
Take these niggas to war for me, let the games begin
I want you out the street, cause the street is not the move
Don't let me die for nothing, test your skills, show and prove
Niggas think they ill, but show em you are iller
In the past yo, we killed, but wasn't raised to be no killers
Money and murders hand to hand and come with territory
Manhattan war stories were the price to pay for glory
Cash rules everything around us
MF Grimm:
But everyone around us is not down with us
They plot, scheme, surround us
There's jealousy, envy, niggas want to hurt me
I can't move my legs Jay, so that shit just urks me
Right now I'll be better off dying G
I don't think that I can function in society
Cause I paid the cost, you paid the cost
The family paid the cost and now I'm feeling lost
Because you went away and now my skies are gray
I don't know what to feel, I don't know what to say
I don't know what to do, I need you to impinge
My life is like a door hanging off the henge
I try to improvise and go with the flow
But to my suprise the flow is so slow
I'm really confused, advice you have to give
I'm not afraid to die, but right now i'm afraid to live
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
Grimm:
I don't know my title, so I'm a little sad man
What's the difference between a genius and a mad man?
Jay:
A genius is exceptional, it breaks down the whole
Mad men are not bright as them, but they do have a goal
To be a genius or a mad man is in your mind
Grimm:
But is it possible for the two to intertwine?
Jay:
Yes when a genius uses powers just to focus to a crime
Greed or make nuclear bombs all the time
Grimm:
This materialistic world, is there any type of hope?
Will Catholics ever have a black pope?
I write rhymes like riddler, list them like Schindler
Alot of religious figures on this planet are just swindlers
Jay:
What do you see?
Grimm:
Sight beyond site, zones of twilight
The afterlife, a new world is what I like
Jay:
You don't like commandments, but just do them
Grimm:
Aight, but when you talk to god again could you give these questions to him?
Jay:
They can't be too long, cause he's a busy man
So tell me about 6, and I'll relay them if I can
(one)
God, why's my mighty nation lost?
(two)
Why'd you let Jesus Christ be put on the cross?
(three)
Why's my people poor and also sore?
(niggas is fucked up)
In Harlem all I see is funeral homes and liquor stores
(four)
Why'd you let the Indians get used and abused
(five)
Why'd you let Hitler crucify all the Jews
Some races will never see the best out of life
It's like you made a big ass test out of life
I got love for you god, but can you explain to me
(six)
Why you took my legs and Jay, and dished out so much pain to me?
Jay:
Don't stress that kid, it's life
Not even death can separate the love
