[Intro: Yasiin Bey, Talib Kweli]
Yo can we, can we play that um, New Normal, by Madlib?
Dude, this guy is so good, first of all, that cover
See now, certain pieces of music, certain pieces of art are just important, like what they communicate and just, that cover just looks like, the cosmos
Woo!
Now remember I said, I wrote something to this
Let's hear it, let's hear it
[?] I wrote something
You recognize if I flip the cut, okay go
[Verse 1: Yasiin Bey]
Listen, B.E.Y. the G.U.Y. again
And he's back to make Ali in his prime seem shy
Lord pardon me for harboring hubris
Senior year dropout, religious studious
Many arose, some perish, some fail
The false must perish, only the true prevail
Don't even put it on the scale to weigh
Off the charts, too heavy for the scale to say
But God's grace, we are able to shape time and space
We're back in the style, form, and wave
What the Eagle told the sparrow, "The crows ain't the problem" ...
Too boss to bother
Stronger than the dolla-ala
That B.E.Y., hah
Hold tight with the light and vision beyond sight
Flow built with what death don't kill
They showin' light for Pac, or Big, or Nip, or Phife, [?]
"Outstanding" like the Gap band jamming
Blow!
