I Would Never Lyrics by El Michels Affair, Black Thought

Glorious Game

2023

[Verse 1]
I'm from where true regard for human lives is few and far
And haters'll shoot they shot at you out of a movin' car
We place our wishes of makin' it out on a shootin' star
Be whoever you need to be, just don't forget who you are
I could switch clothes conveniently just to get through the door
And in Flipmode, the scene almost seemingly knew it all
I used to lift loads of spiritual baggage and threw it off
If you made it here by the grace of God, then do your job
Be ever unique as artists
Truth should be easy to mark and seek out and shoot your targеt
That's word to Shaniqwa Jarvis
We rep Howard to Harvard and evеrything in between
Look how a fire was started and destined into a dream
My Rhodes Scholarship started with questionin' who would lead
The messenger could become your profession if you believe
Your future could supersede any history, true indeed
Just remember all the places we seen and what it mean
215
[Verse 2]
When I done had no time to listen and that old-time religion
Didn't have no competition, my life was long division
Starin' at four corners, I might as well have been born in prison
Within arm's reach of my porch, it was on a sibling
We suffer from preconditions, strugglin' to beat the system
Climbin' to reach the pinnacle only to meet suspicion
Tryna stand on your principles after bein' forbidden
Or go against the invincible algorithm of livin'
When very broke, every day you inhale a heavy smoke
Where heavy hope and searchin' for the truth for every joke
Already woke, standin' arms folded in the scope
Silhouettes and shadows injectin' syringes full of dope
When polices breakin' laws, knockin' hinges off of doors
And the only explanation you've received is just because
We repress it, then express it selectively through the bars
Be whoever you need to be, just don't forget who you are
Listen
