Sol - The Connection lyrics

Back to the drawing board, all aboard I'm all for war, draw your swords The way I give you sentences and keep it locked with bars you would think I law enforce I couldn't tell you the realest rap that I ever wrote Cause when I rhyme you hear my heart like I write it in stethoscope It's how I escape and since they relate to what create Then it would be safe to say to you I connect with folks Was masterminding when in the placenta All you rappers about as hot as winter, taking the music higher I do inspire when I'm spewing fire Rap ain't a contest it's more a conquest I'm making progress but it's a process Adding lessons for the adolescents Your main issue is you lack direction Not only that but you lacking progression The style lyrical, the flow will knock you out your physical like an astral projection I tend to k** em with pa**ive aggression If they asking the question tell em it's Ma** that I'm reppin' So it's past you I'm stepping, I got a city I need to motivate I'm coming raw with it so witness me as I procreate They say the top is a lonely place Well I'm making room for my brethren, a soon to be legend And when it's all said and done I'll see to it that my homies ate Me with no ambition Is like a motor vehicle without a transmission I got to see the world, I was with a girl that I eventually departed She would tell me "you selfish" like a seafood market My peace was tarnished So now I'm creating the blueprint for movements to the peak, I'm honest I hope the haters stay, y'all the milk to my cookie Despite the fact that I'm too real for these rookies I know they will overlook me Remember when you didn't think that I could've? Now when you see me you wanna chop it up like a butcher They see you get to the edge and then they wanna push ya They say that music's a drug, now they claim you the pusher They were never on your page and now they wanna book ya Tryna get published, it's hard to get buzzing without a budget Speaking truthfully I do it cause I love it But on the path to be highly connected and widely respected I think it's uncalled for some of y'all to price y'all lines The games tricky like rocking a rhyme that's right on time Let the soon to be icon shine Forget the gossip, it's so high school The flow is dumb it got a low IQ I spread my wings and I float by you With a clean conscience, the flow monsterous It's so bonkers, the issue is you got no mantras Without dreams I'm Scarface with no contra But still conquer, with no sponsors No deal, no bling bling or gold grills But the flow still be giving them cold chills Got plenty drive any obstacle is road k** Giving you that eastcoast feel I know you're probably listening to me rapping on this track thinking "he's so real" Got opponents thinking "please hold still!" The art of rhyming is declining so I had to step in I'm sick of all the yapping and rapping on packing weapons Or broads on your jock and how you got the Mac eleven The issue is you lack connection, you got bad reception
