Its Different Now - ANoyd

I really feel like the almighty dollar took all of the spirit from

hip-hop—period

Cry tears for the criteria, horsing around on the cafeteria table

I spit a rhyme on boom-bap so follow the arrow like Sagittarius

Instead of putting they heart into it I see the embalming fluid making it look

alive but it’s different now

And you low on stamina see the thing is you amateur, damaging, sandwiching

Aerodynamic to vanishing got the Atlantic behind your ear again I’m a little

twisted behind what I 'ear like Anakin

Handling single-handedly like a finger, no wedding ring

Quit the rambling, cool your mouth and examine a teething ring

I’m cleaning the game poetic, a janitor key to bring

Propaganda and affidavit the banner the keep the cling

It’s really a thin line with me hearing whatever you got to say like we talking

on two cans and a piece of string that’s annually

Look up «Star"—I'm in the Webster, Emmanuelly—

—Lewis, the pussy niggas survive and they land on they feet

And they stand in debris with a can of Febreze

Demanding a speech, commander-in-chief—nigga, you wish

I ain’t turning up nowhere till I don’t gotta turn my windows up manually

And ain’t no stopping till I’m selling out the biggest crowd and you sitting

down nigga 'cause it’s different now different now

I been watching time go by

Staring at the clock till the time go by

Yeah, it’s different now

Listening to Biggie and my Nas

Listening to Biggie and my Nas will I nod

Yeah, it’s different now

You be putting words together and I bring good people all together with my

words see the different now?

Give a nigga dap put your middle finger down

Oh, you don’t remember?

I remember how, written down

Oh, I forgot that’s it’s, that’s it’s different now

It’s no surprise that I’m still here for standing so long for what I believe in

Guarding my Garden of Eden

They been tryna cuff ANoyd

Since wearin' my Lot 2−9 on Air 1s and trying to stop the bleeding

Y’all praying to stop the breathing on hip-hop

While I stare at the vinyl of Illmatic, I promised myself it wouldn’t open

until I meet him

And dap him and tell him, «I ain’t done rappin' until we even as Steven in rap

bracket and accurate to the region of mankind.»

What if that car crash haved me forever paralyzed?

Have the franchise still putting their hands high

From a wheelchair craving a shepherds pie

Checking profiles give a fuck if you verified

Thought you was clean as a whistle but climbing a stair of lies

XSee the change in the wives and kids and it’s clarified, went from training

wheels to changing wheels then I got tired of that then I clocked into rapping

with spare time

The listeners today are blindfolded and losing it

They shart truce in a pair of chartreuse pants and they zoom in it

That shit bright for all of you new niggas

Getting the same plate of food and you cool with it

What if ANoyd got Connetti on the map

With a song that sounded exact

Like everything that’s in the rap

With a solid, liquid and gas

I guess that’s a matter fact

'Cause, honest to God, ain’t no longevity in that

Every once a burgundy moon I get a promotion

I’m done smoking with no more gaming I’m out of token, Mama told me cut the

front lawn and the back too but I’m too connected I unplug modem and then I

mowed 'em

Y’all just here for the money period nothing else and it’s clear that you put

it over the comma like semicolon

I don’t just make music for nothing I put my ear to the crowd like I’m Hulk

Hogan but lately I’m heart broken it’s different now

Bitch nigga it’s different now

It’s different now

I understand that it’s different now

Bitch nigga it’s different now

I hate that it’s different now

I don’t like that it’s different now

It’s different now

I been watching time go by

Staring at the clock till the time go by

Yeah, it’s different now

Listening to Biggie and my Nas

Listening to Biggie and my Nas will I nod

Yeah, it’s different now

You be putting words together and I bring good people all together with my

words see the different now?

Give a nigga dap put your middle finger down

Oh, you don’t remember?

I remember how, written down

Oh, I forgot that’s it’s, that’s it’s different now

Oh, I forgot that’s it’s, that’s it’s different now

Oh, I forgot that’s it’s, that’s it’s different now

Oh, I forgot that’s it’s, that’s it’s different now

Yeah, it’s different now

Different now

Yeah, it’s different now

Different now
