Sine Qua Non ft. Amerigo Gazaway & Awon Lyrics

I put it all in Gods hands this is part of Gods plan

Hip hop raised me up from a boy to a man

Held me down in the can or on the block with the grams

Now I rap for the fans who do the knowledge understand

Intelligence and intellect is what you should seek

You reap what you sew as you birth what you speak

Stand on your own because a soul is never cheap

It ain't about where you been it's where you go when you sleep

I lived a full life I done did it for the streets

The jeeps and all my peeps so the cipher complete

The stakes heightened time to enlighten what you inciting

Inspiration or riots because these entertainers lying

I feed the masses with these poems out of a passage

Of life written by experience which is a master

The mic miracle straight forward there's no subliminal

Hip hop immortal a 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of trends come

Seen a lot of trends go still

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of artists pop

I seen a lot flop

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of trends come

Seen a lot of trends go still

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of artists pop

I seen a lot flop

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Yo soulful like the blood of a Taino

I'm a one eyed man traveling the land of blind people

Don Cheadle in a blockbuster sequel

Got me stuck between two evils

Off of my flow and too cerebral

I used to read through magazines and dream of a lifestyle

Iced out like my favorite rappers

Only seeing highlights of the high life

Even though behind the scenes

The truth grimmer when ya young it's hard to see through the glitter

When the gold turn to plastic and a flow can turn classic

When ya preconceptions die

Some never learn to get passed em

And it ain't easy cause stubbornness is not subtle

Subs can turn to bloody scuffles gotta use ya gut muscle

Stuck with my hustle when it wasn't cool

So before you envy what I got

Think about the shit I went through to make it pop

And it's not rocket science or mystic

And if you don't know how to read through the lines

You must have missed it

Seen a lot of trends come

Seen a lot of trends go still

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of artists pop

I seen a lot flop

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of trends come

Seen a lot of trends go still

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle

Seen a lot of artists pop

I seen a lot flop

Hip hop immortal

A 100 years from my pinnacle
