1997 - Intellectual

[Intro]

Yea

1997 the birth of a legend

Hell yes it's the legacy of the best who has ever done it

I'm taking these baby steps well with that ya know I still run it

I'm building something from nothing to become something disgusting

I'm feasting you only munching despite all of that discussion

Coming straight out the dungeon

Ascending while you was plunging

Keep it real I'm crushing any emcee who stay fronting

You don't like me either keep to yourself or say something

Either way I promise like hypebeast we stay stunting

In all white air forces penetrate through your fortress

I'm bringing these niggas back to class like summer courses

Flow colder than rigormortus so "Cole" you'd think I was Norris

My lyrics are priceless but you could never afford this

I'll let bygones be bygones when my enemies six feet

I spit pythons on pythons that venom on each sheet

Sixteen but I got wisdom like I'm a hundred and sixty

You can hate me but I promise you will never forget me

Yea I'm feeling too real for this

Said yea I'm feeling too real for this

I said I'm feeling too real for this

I guess I must me too real for this

Ok I'm feeling too real for this

I said I'm feeling too real for this

I said I must be too real for this

I said the nike's on my feet keeps my cypher complete

Flow's elite ya fans got Elmont Sessions on repeat

That's me stay out the lab 'less you got the recipe

I'm breaking bad if you ain't committed that you can rest in peace

Homie I'm dedicated leave the crowd in amazement

Drop bombs atrocities before they're even dedinated

This is the fundamentals this is just the basics

Like Alicia Keys homie you do not what my name is

Give me ya hatred you in presence of greatness

Apologies if my notoriety tends to be contagious

3000 people but like 6000 faces

Stairway to heaven will lead you straight down to Ozzy's basement

Hand me a mic and I could hand you back a blessing

Y'all can stay talking that shit cause homie we only progressing

Therefore that chatter you speaking ain't even worth the mention

Hip hop was saved from December 9, 1997 nigga
