Dilated Peoples - The Shape of Things to ComeLyrics

Ay, yes y'all The only thing constant is change With that, it's the shape of things to come, yeah Yo, I'm the open-est emotions, I'm a river in straight A crystal clean lake, yo, the essence of skin The form of a luminescent bright light fluorescent (You got light?) Don't wait till it's dark to ask questions I been sparkin' in sections and blessing mics with my presence Since many were pre-pubescent puberty adolescent Perhaps you need a lesson in, addressin' with respect an' Too many feel inadequate without their little weapon It's like I got the whole world against me, need to get intensely A head full of headache he's and a hand full of sissies Them so flimsy so why there one MC There wasn't one before hasn't been one since me A gangster of love, I come from up above I give the mic a tug, I give the world a hug I give the skies a kiss, I give suckers a kiss Some people like my old styles better than this but Yo, I'm Spacey like Kevin and some do knowledge of seven Praise Jesus and Jah, Buddha, Allah or just Heaven Yeah, and some like it moderate and some like a lot of it Whichever way I go we got somethin' to get you move up out of it Some will be statistics and some will be reverends Dimes become pennies like dimes become eleven To some we kind of thought of it, as teaching the dumb Ace-One and dilated, the shape of things to come I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares Triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares And triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come I wax 'em I tax 'em, here's Iriscience, ask him From Arkansas to Aspen, the futuristic jazzmen I'm telepathic, movin' through hella traffic I know my demographics, see how this was crafted and drafted There's precision in the incision I'm not Christian or Catholic or any other religion I'm just man with a steel in his hand I shoot the gift from blessed to spark where it land And it landed in the sand where the pyramids blaze And this is how the dictionary defines such a place A polyhedron with a polygonal base Median and common vertex, triangular face Who came in the home and ripped the cats stole Stripped the limestone to line they fine home I cram to understand, their dirty deeds in song While we bringing you the shape of things to come I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares And triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares And triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come Aiyyo, I center punch punchlines, shine when it's crunch time I back to beat box, rap battles at lunchtime I sketch a piece and fill it in with design Ooh no, Aceyalone, raw bright like sunshine Platform squad, standin' on the brink Yo I touch the world, got three but two blink Rakaa aka Iriscience lenscrafters And blend with hash the self defense master Yeah, it's too bad we control fire, wind I know that you bad you batted a thousands I remember Who's the baddest with the apparatus tell me again Take ahold of your heart without penetratin' the skin See I didn't invent it, I just perfected it I never intended to really connect with it But once I got in it, I redirected it Now I change the world and get respect with it and a check with it It ain't nothin' new under the sun Fool, I ain't afraid of the size of your gun The flesh is weak plus they speak foul tongue Take the breath from their lungs as they swung And they hung and they sunk I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares And triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come I catch rec and tangle in circles with squares And triangles to test if indeed you're prepared This is the shape of things to come This is the shape of things to come Yes y'all Yes y'all Yes y'all Yes y'all
