The Source
[Intro]
The melodies you sing to me
They don’t come from the source
They don’t they don’t they don’t they don’t they do-do-don't
[Verse 1]
Yeah
Lost integrity hollow music is tragedy
Killing culture swarming vultures supreme agony
Image we planted the seeds it grew magically
Hands on I stand strong and form a family
But how you feeling your team ,when you ain’t feeling self
The definition of soul it’s when the ripples felt
The river is deep, niggas is sleep, leading the sheep
Constant deceit is not what we need
It’s like stand up or fall for anything
You got your mini me’s
Trying to get the cream in their skinny jeans
What a shitty scheme, did it for some hella streams
Invested is a message and lesson most with never read
I try to be the light, so you see the sight of sacrifice
On this mic device a soldier and earn my stripes
That’s realness you definitely feel this
So when I put my pen to the pad I definitely kill it ah
[Chorus]
The melodies you sing to me
They don’t come from the source
They don’t they don’t they don’t they don’t they do-do-dont
The lyrics that you read to me
They don’t come from the soul
They don’t they don’t they don’t they don’t they do-do-dont
It used to be cool to be cool
Now it's just cool to be a fool
So fuck it ima act like a fool
Pro wit it bringing my tools
Soul wit it bringing my shoes
Rhythm wit it bringing my blues
Take off like king James from the baseline
Bring me dat bling babe
Dey legalized trees babe
[Verse 2]
I’m trying to tell you told you, what the old do
Cultivate flows on soul loops it's so true
Want to give’em food for though call it Whole Foods
So the brand new can hold jewels with trues when they make moves
Game that sticks 2 ribs but won’t blot you
The fake get exposed so they post you, we paid due
I get my Superman cape, straight out of the phone booth
I staying bulletproof frauds they can’t touch dude
It’s too much, you're messing with a rare breed
I'll succeed to fricassee these MCs
They turn amputees cause y’all ain’t half of me
Savagely I react dramatically the travesty
What was you thinking the strategy
How could you doing to self for mere wealth let’s call it vanity
You wasn’t ready for the real doe
Without real soul, you need to get the boot with steel toe uh
[Chorus]
The melodies you sing to me
They don’t come from the source
They don’t they don’t they don’t they don’t they do-do-dont
The lyrics that you read to me
They don’t come from the soul
They don’t they don’t they don’t they don’t they do-do-dont
It used to be cool to be cool
Now it's just cool to be a fool
So fuck it ima act like a fool
Pro wit it bringing my tools
Soul wit it bringing my shoes
Rhythm wit it bringing my blues
Take off like king James from the baseline
Bring me dat bling babe
Dey legalized trees babe
It used to be cool to be cool
Now it's just cool to be a fool
So fuck it ima act like a fool
Pro wit it bringing my tools
Soul wit it bringing my shoes
Rhythm wit it bringing my blues
Take off like king James from the baseline
Bring me dat bling babe
Dey legalized trees babe
(Legalize trees babe)
