H2O Apollo Brown & Ras Kass (Ft. Pharoahe Monch & Rakaa Iriscience)

[Sample]
Memories, like the corners of my mind
Misty watered colored memories
Of the way...

[Intro]
The good old days
Reflect with me
You know what I'm sayin'
We just sittin' on the porch
In Watts
Helicopter flyin' overhead
Lil niggas in the street throwin' dirt rocks
Feel me


[Verse 1: Ras Kass]
Archaeological logic, discovered Van Gogh's fossils
To paint a perfect picture
Twelve years a slave, twenty years a spitter
Thirty seven years a nigga
Hopin' to see ninety bein' a strong black figure
As I stand and deliver
Breathe fire in Japan, Godzilla
By popular demand till the fans see that God got iller
I'm like Cornel West with scales on my chest
You superman thugs, caught Kryptonite to the flesh
See the hood got me stressed, takin fists to the neck
Multiple arrest then I discovered KRS
Let us begin, what, where, how or why
Will all be explained and if not, fam we die
Losin' granny was the hardest
Good women I fucked and left broken hearted
Turned up being retarded
Transformation to activist from an artist
Like young Malala who the Taliban would target
Shot in the head just cause she wanted to read
Till every person sex trafficed is free, we gotta bleed
(Turned down for what?)
Cause niggas tell on themselves nowadays
Film it on Vine then wonder why crime don't pay
Candid outlandish, the dirty pistol I brandishe
Glad they didn't have camera phones when I was young doin' bad shit
Yeah, I just dated myself
I'm no spring chicken but why you hate on yourself?
For five minutes of fame
Find yourself like Kat Stacks, knocked out the frame
Locked in a cage
And bitchin' it's true, you backwards hustlin' homie, you snitchin' on you
I'm on my Descartes, Diop, Be-Bop, Aristotle
Prehistoric talons twist the top off the bottle
My era is classic Tyrannosaurus Rex in the lab shit
Leimert Park so I pass it Jurassic
