Haf n' haf - Tell Dilla lyrics

[Verse 1] Tell Dilla Ima meet him when the time's right After living wif my n***as in some limelight They say I rhyme nice, I just say I rhyme bright Open up your mind & you can dine on these soundbytes Like its brown rice & good for your health Tryna make tight records u could put on ur shelf I got some dro in a jar, my hope in my bars Cuz I know I'll go far, if my soul is involved But y'all got no shame, no brains like prom kangs It's all chains, fame, gunplay & ball claims What's it come to? Something we can't undo Everybody's confused, clear your mind wif blunt fumes Like puff it, pa**. Tryna school the young punks but these duntz skip cla** Wanna get that cash, before they get that math Well I'm about the knowledge you can't get that fast, ain't catch that? spit it back [Hook] (Nicole K.A. & Haf n' haf) Now tell me how you feel about it I be looking towards the sky even if its cloudy I be putting out my vibes even if they doubt me Even if its only my people who gettin rowdy My click around me & we giving off energy Friendly G's, who be steady living memories To last lifetimes, jam when the mic's mine Write lines when I'm in my right mind Life rhymes [Verse 2] Left school to pursue to something true Fam was blue but I knew I'd get through if I grinded Hit depression so hard, had me stressin but it's just another lesson & now I'm right minded Yes I did, was sick but rose above it Days where I couldn't even show my face in public, yup On the subject, I asked myself What's the measure of a man, is it power or wealth? Is it all the university degrees on your shelf? I'm an artist at heart, we can't teach what is felt We express ourselves, through ways we know how What's true to our views, can't use old routes If you don't understand, might lack optimism, don't blame fans cuz they rock with my visions Even if they don't get em, that's love what you missin? Selling out venues wit my buzz is the mission [Hook] (Nicole K.A. & Haf n' haf) Now tell me how you feel about it I be looking towards the sky even if its cloudy I be putting out my vibes even if they doubt me Even if its only my people who gettin rowdy My click around me & we giving off energy Friendly G's, who be steady living memories To last lifetimes, jam when the mic's mine Write lines when I'm in my right mind Life rhymes
