Interlude

[Verse]

I'm a, I'm a purist like

To me hip-hop is a beautiful art form

That I feel is not being respected as such now like

You know it became a

You know I was having a problem with the times

When it was, y'all wanted 16, wanted 16, like

Art is not, you can't just  put art in a 16 form like

Or

It was another time where it was like yo

I ain't even write that rhyme

Or you know

Spit that just real quick like

I was taking offense to all that shit

So I'm like yo B

It takes time to score

You what I mean like

The Sistine Chapel wasn't done in how fast you can do it

You know what I'm saying, the shit was donе over years

Or you know, David wasn't sculpted in you know

Yo I did that in a day

Thеre's no time with art

So when I'm doing a verse it takes me a long time to do the verse

And as far as doing the verse

I'm speaking from a lifetime of experiences

So it's taken, it took a lifetime to write that

You know what I'm saying?

So like so

I wanted them to know like yo

This is personal, this is personal what I'm giving you

This is blood I'm giving you

Like know what I'm saying

I'm not spitting this shit this is blood so

I need them to know that, to appreciate it

That if you don't hear a lot from me

It's because I'm

I'm pulling a lot from me

And I'm actually expending a lot of energy to give you these songs

So I just want you to appreciate it

So I could feel that

If they knew that, they would appreciate it more
