Look at them flames lighting up the sky
I ain't never seen fire shooting up so high
Are you listening people to what I'm saying?
Cause it sure looks to me like
They was asking me to do the impossible
I told them it's all good for me, ain't nothing really an obstacle
Spit a cold flow, turn the mic to a popsicle
Spit a hot verse, it'll send you to the hospital
With third degree burns on your ears
Aloe Blacc make it clear, this year's my year
Somebody was asking what it feels like
For a brother at the top of his game
Load it, cock it and aim
I'll teach you for the flame
A fire can't blaze without fuel to feed it though
This kinda heat, you need it though
You know, Aloe Blacc, the soul singer, the rapper
Aloe Blacc the musician, Aloe Blacc the actor
It's all the same man with feelings and desires
Let you see every side of the story like in The Wire
Let the rumors burn to ashes in hell, I set the fire
And if my time on earth should prematurely expire
Then all the times I said I'm immortal, I was a liar
But who you know in life that never told a little white one
And I ain't never been the quiet, silent type to bite tongues
Si no llora no mama, pause when you see the comma
Get live when your enemies wanna bring the drama
Got a picture in your mind of what success look like
It might as well be me on stage holding the mic
I move through the gauntlet, absorbing all the scenery
Associate with those who get lifted off the greenery
But I choose not to partake, I stay awake and make maneuvers
Like hood drug runners on beach cruisers
I hear the walls talking, every window is watching
If you're the QB, then who's running and who's blocking?
This ain't a Christmas stocking full of toys
This is Aloe Blacc, a professional rocking for my boys
And the ladies too, the insane and crazy ways
I tell my story from page to page, when it pays, it pays
I keep it all under the mattress for the rainy days
When every cent matters
If you riding, let's ride, get inside, put the top down
In my town, it's all about who bringing the hot sound
And I don't think it's a question about who the winner is
Aloe Blacc, far from the backpacking beginner kids
Open your mind, it's time, it's education
For the hearing impaired, there's a visual demonstration
Silence
