25th Hour - Reks

«Oh, it’s you again!

Don’t you ever give up?»

«At one time I thought of giving up, but now I think differently»

«You can help change things, by learning more about your culture»

«and believing in yourself.»

«Oh yeah?

You gotta be joking.»

«It's no joke.

Tell me!»

Preemo!

(Reks)

(«No time for looking back, it’s done») Listen

(«You better take off, before I break off»)

(«I don’t give a fuck, I don’t play that shit»)

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

I’mma write this here rhyme like Guru’s in the passenger

Standin on the East Coast, starin out to Africa

Accolades, Escalades fade

My vernacular remain in tact for the generation that’s comin after

The average rapper you praise days numbered like a calendar

Challengers caliber mediocre enter the catheter

IV’s, wrap 'em up, mad as fuck, need a ladder up

Escalator, elevator, skyscraper, hella haters

On Preemo beats, meditate a bit to elevate my spit

Scribble daily scripts, hell in wit

Angels I strangle the instrument mangle chops, can’t go pop

I gotta remain boom bap, true that, who that be?

Mr. «Say Goodnight», I’mma blaze the mic willingly

Kill or be killed industry, and the realest of real emcees

Solo flow enemy, future of the rap

Golden Era dead

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

We in the 25th hour, it’s now or never

We gotta get it before it’s gone forever, remember

In the end time waits for no man, what’s your plan?

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

We in the 25th hour, it’s now or never

We gotta get it before it’s gone forever, remember

In the end time waits for no man, what’s your plan?

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

Before I fade to black, face the mirror, face the fact

Fate appear to backtrack where the plaques at?

Where the love for the cat?

Fortified flow, fire from fire like fame

Foresayer in Josiah desire to perspire

The 25th hour upon me, calmly walk the wire

Annihilate enemy ire any higher than I are in the sky

Or heaven I require less than mediocre

I reawoken the deeper thoughts of sleepin prophets

Regardless of others offers I authentic dialect, I’m a vet

Y’all are just wakin up, 'Say Goodnight'

Slap a rapper, take his mic, greater height

Spit a rhyme saber like

Inner mind paid the price, A-B-C-alike

Hey Preem, we a tight, chemistry

Any beats sent to me I’mma instantly write

'til the fingertips crippled

It’ll be sort of arthritis to finish a line

If you more than rhyme this

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

We in the 25th hour, it’s now or never

We gotta get it before it’s gone forever, remember

In the end time waits for no man, what’s your plan?

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

You ever chant with the rebels, dance with the devils?

Answered the higher levels, ride with the iron elbow to elbow

In hellish circles where the heat is echoed

You ever let go, stresses from pressures boilin beyond the kettle?

You ever petrified, exorcised demons

Believing you leave 'em breathin they’ll get even

Odds are beyond y’all, achievin peaceful means of seekin deacons

Ain’t no way out, they 'bout beat, by any means

Ain’t necessary but they bury them very young, hell or heaven

Them adolescents, is pedalin, packin metal and settlin

Street wars, revolves life behind tight walls

When I falls, psychos strike the right chords

They at pause, bumpin Ricky Ross

Kids is on crack, they lost

Wipe a lot, no time for looking back, it’s done

Golden era over and dead, I’m over your heads

We in the 25th hour, it’s now or never

We gotta get it before it’s gone forever, remember

In the end time waits for no man, what’s your plan?

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

(«You better take off, before I break off»)

(«I don’t give a fuck, I don’t play that shit»)

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)

(«You better take off, before I break off»)

(«No time for looking back, it’s done»)
