Statik Selektah - My Time lyrics

[Intro] (What time is it?) (Honestly my future looking promising) My time is now (What time is it?) (Honestly my future looking promising) (I am) Black (Who's that?) Dave [Verse 1: Black Dave] Our culture, need to see it through them bifocals You could say they hold you, but they don't really know you Took my team with me, now we going bi-coastal Out in Paris f**ing the baddest, you can't imagine When I'm rapping so smooth like silk, you so satin Getting fly every week like f** fashion With one pa**ion, that's to make it to the top That's until my heart stop, and the f**ing beat drop You can only peep, but you can't tweak the technique I'm intelligent, yes, I am a New York City resident It's evident smoking on this weed like it's my medicine I'm telling her, ain't no catching 'em, my n***as wrecking sh** Bomb sh**, you could say my n***as Vietnam sh** A lot of hot sh** when I vomit, no conscience [Hook: Josh Xantus] My future looking so amazing History in the making My time is now (Honestly my future looking promising) They say life is what you make it Coming up from the basement (courtesy of NYC) My time is now (What time is it?) (Honestly my future looking promising) [Verse 2: CJ Fly] Watching CJ Electronica shock them all Been fly with so much in store, stay out of the shopping mall Me against the world, I'm grounded on my feet, my soul strong Versus what you rotate, that's weak And verses I wrote, eight this week Days pa**ing by, Earth going ‘round to me All I ask is where to ash this weed Then pa** the tree to one like one, two, three Life is what you make it, get the batter and the bacon grease Look who made this like it was baked in crisp Bars like they locked me up and threw away the key Got such a rotten mouth I might offend the king All I talk about is life and my life ain't so sweet They left the game in rumbles and I came to sweep Laid the dude like latitude cause my lines atlas From the school of hard-knocks and I ain't enlist [Hook] [Verse 3: Nyck Caution] I hope you get to see this light before the shadow conquer I hope sometimes you understand you gotta battle longer Cause if you feeling like you sinking, over think and wonder And believe you in it deeper, that's just shallow water I hope I get to see you graduate I hope your life can be as nice as what the families play On television, but we know they just elaborate All these life conditions, please forgive me 'fore I pa** away So how we make it this far? How much longer do we fly? How many times can I fall until my legs don't wanna rise? Until my body straight collapse or my toes blister up? You was missing all the time, why would I envision trust? I be lying if I just deny that I imprisoned us I was lying both of that, but you were wilding in the cut Yo, I rip the Xannies down the spirals of my guts I was tripping thinking my survival leases up I'm prescripted, this is just a picture I was tryna sign My remission was quicker the times I swallow pride Yeah, so don't judge me, sh** was ugly Not like you was thinking of me
