The Music Lyrics by Amity

As Above

2021

It started as a kid with a boom box in my room/
Playing pop, hard rock, hip hop and the blues/
With a Discman of mixes I got from the Tube/
Listening to hits instead of watching the news/
I’d emulate Eminem ‘cause it resonated within/
I’d write and record raps and then I’d play them to friends/
It forever changed me, I was dedicated and set/
My mind to getting famous with my records played by the best/
So raise your glasses, this is a toast to those/
Who raise the bar and make their mark/
Who pave the path for othеrs to turn their pain to art/
And not those who oversaturatе the market/
This is for the Jays, the Nas’, the Dres, the Pacs/
You new school fools break my heart/
But every now and then there’s a breakthrough artist/
Who changes the game and I pay homage to them
Music is my Zen, my remedy/
My life, my closest friend, my therapy/
It’s the watchful eye and the listening ear/
And it’s on my side when you disappear/
It’s these beats that make my heart beat/
Inside when I lie awake and can’t sleep/
It gets me through hard days and long nights/
So whenever the music plays I’m alright
At work searching through Urban Grooves/
Assuming anything I haven’t heard’s a new/
Addition to the collection if it’s limited edition/
Addicted to the obsession from the very first listen/
On release day you can bet I’ll get a signed copy/
And never lend it to anyone unless there’s five of them/
Whether it’s a jewel case or a digipack/
I’ll put it back and grab a rewrap if it’s cracked/
Bump it in the car and in the stereo/
Upload it to my phone so I can play it everywhere I go/
Learn and rehearse every word and every note/
So I can recite it back when I see them at a show/
Live and acoustic, remixes and covers/
If there’s a hidden track, they leaked it and it flooded/
If at first I hate it, after three listens I love it/
No matter how loud, I keep singing above it
Music is my Zen, my remedy/
My life, my closest friend, my therapy/
It’s the watchful eye and the listening ear/
And it’s on my side when you disappear/
It’s these beats that make my heart beat/
Inside when I lie awake and can’t sleep/
It gets me through hard days and long nights/
So whenever the music plays I’m alright
It’s still changing my mood and moving me to tears/
If it’s passionate and honest then it’s music to my ears/
I know I’m probably gonna lose it through the years/
At least I studied my craft and proved it my peers/
So I inked a reminder on my skin, the inside of my wrist/
A symbol of five sides to imply that you’re missed/
I’m on a mission and I’d die for this shit/
I give my life to it ‘cause it saved mine as a kid
Music is my Zen, my remedy/
My life, my closest friend, my therapy/
It’s the watchful eye and the listening ear/
And it’s on my side when you disappear/
It’s these beats that make my heart beat/
Inside when I lie awake and can’t sleep/
It gets me through hard days and long nights/
So whenever the music plays I’m alright
