I think the sample is Larry Norman - "Nothing Really Changes" (youtube.com/watch?v=aFpDzAKrYp8) is you can believe it. Pretty tight sample flipping by Blu.
I was trying to write down the lyrics, and I got to the second verse and I guess I saw that they are up on the net now aleady.
This song is an expirience, I don't play it that often because I want to have it in my life for a while without getting bored of it. So pignant, just makes one feel in control again, like your life is in your hand make something out of it.
..now i'm just truthful/ truthfully it hurts / usually worse / used to be worse / running from comfort cause i wouldn't comform or convert / now i just converse bout how much love hurts / and how good god is / and how much i want more for my kids / cause life is not fair / but it does not stop there / do what you got to do/ drop and don't trip my dear
blu is nice i wish he just rap a little louder so you can hear everything every word like jay elec raps to the point where he wants you to hear the skill elzhi also. blu is the shit though.
@Damian2354 If you know mad girls into real music like this you either live up north or on the west... thats so dope man! I need to know some... where you live?
wordplay isn't always a bad thing. In fact, its great. But when it's used solely for self-glorification, like what Lil Wayne n Soulja Boy do, spitting about how they the greatest, its very lame. Blu uses it but with moderation. He doesn't spit it line after line like Wayne duz.
Screw Charles Hamilton, I've been on a CH binge for 4 months and stopped listening to blu, looks like i'm gunna have to go back to hearing clever lyrics that EVERYBODY can understands.
flow is so smooth. its sucks to hear a great song like this one, same with all his others, while other ppl r listenin to mainstream trash n think they're listenin to real shit. N r too ignorant or stubborn to face the real music n actually give it a chance.
@uter91 okay. i agree that just because i dont like a song doesnt mean that its trash. But a lot of the mainstream radio hip hop is just pop/catchy beats with shitty lyrics. Most people that like it only do so because they like the beats n tolerate the lyrics which i guess is okay if u dont mind settling for poorer quality music. The people who think the lyrics in those songs are good either dont know about true lyricists or have been brainwashed to think that lyrics they hear are good.
@uter91 most hip hop songs u hear on the radio today consist of lyrics that i call catchy wordplay. Lil Wayne is one of the most famous for doing this. Lil Wayne has some decent stuff from the past but nowadays all you'll hear him rap about is how he's the greatest thru simple-minded puns. Anybody can grab a mic, including me, n spit sumthin that u'd hear lil wayne say. What makes a rapper/hip hop artist good is his originality. What separates him from all the others who claim they're the best.
good stuff... i checked this out because we have a Rock song called Until We Die!!
