Invocation Lyrics

    Common:
    Envisioning the hereafter, listenin to steve wonder
    On a quest for love like the proceed drummer
    I strike like lightning and don't need thunder
    Inhale imagination and breathe wonder
    That's your lady, i used to run up in her and g weed from her
    It's a cold world and niggaz need summer
    At times my going forward seems like retreat
    As i be writin rhyme after rhyme and throw away beats
    Growing into my britches, outgrowing the streets
    There's a thin line between war and peace, whores and jeeps
    Ignore mcs like beeps, scribblin freedom on pages
    My third eye is like pink eye, seemin contagious
    Redeemin the ancients with ace this rhyme jargon
    I feel mexican, hip hop is my garden
    Don't give a fuck where you chartin, certain shit i can't honor
    It ain't that you sellin, it's your karma
    Rappers i monitor like a chaperone, you large and haven't grown
    Poetically perform fly-bys, another rapper gone
    The stage becomes a catacomb, i rap like a mummy
    Not for the money, i could have sampled diana ross a long time ago
    My mind of flow is like motor key 20
    Youngblood said he had dimes, i prayed that he see twenty
    Hollerin at the brothers, either you gon be a thug or a man
    Flip drugs and get land, i can see my man rashad
    As he described how the bucks hit him
    And said slugs was still stuck in him, when it rained, it fucked wit
    Him
    This bucket interrupt wisdom and asked when my album was comin
    I said it's here
    It's here(echoed)
