Nothing New

[Intro]

Yeah, this is how

Ab-Soul and AAhyasis live

[Verse 1]

Hello, good morning, this is more than just a feeling I reckon

I cut on the beat and if I feel it I wreck it

I heard I got fans in France playing my records

I'll visit as soon as I can, you can bet it

Don't forget the dash in my name, when you print it

It'll make me feel bleak like Jay's apprentice

Niggas looking real meek soon as we step in it

I'm a god MC, not a polytheist

And why is your reaction always so obvious

Let a reverend run in my Adidas

He'll see that despite all his dislikes, I am like Jesus

Don't follow 10 commandments, but I don't seem to break

To many of them either, try to understand me

Obama said “Yes we can,” but that can't be

Cause we was raising money for his campaign, T-shirt, plates, and mugs

But won't do the same in our own community, what the fuck?

I said what the fuck?

[Chorus]

And it ain't nothing new, all I do is eat, sleep and shit

Reflect on my life, find the perfect words to rhyme it with

Depend on my sight, ain't concerned with what ain't been confirmed

And I got the right, think I've reached the point of no return

It ain't nothin' new

[Verse 2]

How's it going, good afternoon

I'm doing swell I hope I can say the same for you

It's funny though, I could have just told a lie

And made it true to taint the mood, you think I am what I ain't (Ooooh)

Like a saint or fake

We could go toe to toe, your choice it's no debate

Soul brother number 2

And every single one of my dreams here coming true

I try to smoke weed to give me the fix I need

But it always ends up with me running out of tree

In sheer disbelief, tell me how I can get high

As the sky and keep my ear to the streets

At the same time, no diamonds in my watch

Can I still shine, will anybody watch?

If I could hold you attention for at least a minute

You'll gain so much wisdom you'll need to see a dentist

Grow up in my society see why I'm a menace

And obviously ominous to your opinions

Call myself the King of Carson like I hold dominion

Hoping nobody notices that I had no permission

I don't mean no disrespect when I express

My vision was meant to connect, not to reject

Don't press eject, I said don't press eject (Soul!)

[Chorus]

And it ain't nothing new, all I do is eat, sleep and shit

Reflect on my life, find the perfect words to rhyme it with

Depend on my sight, ain't concerned with what ain't been confirmed

And I got the right, think I've reached the point of no return

It ain't nothin' new

[Bridge: Jhene Aiko]

It ain't nothing new to me

Should be nothing new to you

Let's accomplish the impossible

Free in body, mind and soul

[Outro]

No idea's original, it's nothing new under the sun

It's never what you do, but how it's done

If you base your happiness around material, women

And large paper, that means you're inferior not major
