Got flow?
Incredible lyrics. Respect to everyone out there creating from the heart, whatever it is they are doing. I wish I was as brave.
Hold the person that you love closely if they’re next to you
The one you love, not the person that’ll simply have sex with you
Appreciate them to the fullest extent, and then beyond
Cause you never really know what you got, until it’s gone
-Immortal Technique
I wrote this one with the windows open/ to let in some fresh air or maybe i was half hopin’/ i could fly away from it all/ find a brighter day/ but im here to live my life/ and ill find a way.
I got to thinking/ you know that it aint so bad/ i got my friends and my brother and my mum and my dad/ and i’m thankful for that/ sorry i don’t show it enough/ these are the people that i turn to when the going gets tough/ what up? i give thanks to my mates and crew/ like the boys say together we gonna make it through/ and the same goes for you too wherever you hail from/ the words may change but we’re singing the same song.
I just want you all to know that i will love you all forever
This song remains one of my favourite hip hop songs to date. Inspiring in more ways than one.
in the middle of the ghetto on the curb, but in spite
all of the bullshit we on our back staring at the stars above
talkin ‘bout what we gonna be when we grow up,
I said what you wanna be
she said, “Alive”
Amen.
This song would make my mum uptight but dammit, I love it.
real gangstas don’t flex nuts
cuz real gangstas know they got em
I remember viewing this student-produced music video a year ago, and I was absolutely blown away by everything about it - from the thoughtful lyrics to the beautiful horns and vocals. This video, featuring Nyle Emerson, was filmed in a single take, whilst the audio track was recorded simultaneously during filming.
This is one of the most creative and inspiring music video clips I have ever seen!
