[Intro: Talib Kweli]
Attack the Block
Attack the Block (Yeah, yeah, yeah)
Uh
Uh
Come on, live from To Kill a Mockingbird [?]
Yeah
[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
They said I need to change my name
Who the fuck you think you are, Brand Nubian?
Now they only claim to fame is sayin' how they knew me then
I walk through the flood, see the direction that I'm movin' in
Steppin' through the blood, my soul is red like Louis Vuittons
Know I can choose to be the deepest rapper
Or write punchlines that go after the cheapest laughter that'll reach the masses
But now they wishin' that they peeped it faster, ain't wanna admit it
But they had to concede it, so I'm a conceited bastard
The flow is coveted, lovin' your rose-colored glasses
Many degrees to this rappin', but I complete the masters
Try to describe it and you run out of superlatives
This the real, what you hear on the radio alternative
They guessin' what I'm makin', but they estimate conservative
'Cause, boy, you see how pure it is
I earned what they said I wouldn't, and got it the way they said I couldn't
