| [00:47.80] | This is the scene you been seeing all your life |
| [00:50.38] | The one inside a dream you repeated every night |
| [00:53.30] | For 24 frames every second through the light |
| [00:56.28] | Projected through the screen you been paying for despite |
| [00:59.17] | What you see and what you hear, contrary to your sight |
| [01:02.27] | Everything you ever learned that you never had to live |
| [01:05.28] | Might've heard from a story teller medium |
| [01:07.58] | Pictures, words, scriptures to cinema script |
| [01:11.37] | writing a verse |
| [01:12.11] | From this city emerges a new generation of babies |
| [01:15.41] | Who came out of the womb, glued to the tube |
| [01:17.94] | With plans and aspirations to prove beyond doubt |
| [01:20.78] | We are stars too, even if it's just cartoons |
| [01:24.12] | My animated hands that I got from the |
| [01:26.51] | Genes of my island native fam I could never not be |
| [01:29.74] | I'm here to make them scream like a Hitchcock dame |
| [01:32.98] | Whether analog, dig it all, shit is all the same |
| [01:36.02] | An American tradition, a narrative for fiction |
| [01:39.09] | A Hamilton for tickets, the public is addicted |
| [01:42.05] | Just think for a second how much we've been conditioned |
| [01:45.04] | To root for the Doughboys, the O-Dogs, the Bishops |
| [01:48.14] | Sided with them villains, in spite of all they heeded |
| [01:51.02] | He said she gotta have it, she said she didn't need it |
| [01:54.06] | And even if she see it, she will probably not believe it |
| [01:56.99] | If it ain't bein' projected in a wide screen theatre |
| [02:00.01] | If it spins on a reel, it's gotta be real |
| [02:03.00] | But 'real' in real life just remind us of film |
| [03:42.07][02:06.05] | And now you saying something's like a movie when it's real |
| [02:08.95] | like a film's much realer than anything you feel |
| [03:53.65][03:50.66][03:48.17][02:17.76][02:14.80][02:11.93] | in a Cinemetropolis （in a Cinemetropolis） |
| [03:56.71][02:20.76] | in a Cinemetropolis... |
| [02:23.79] | They try to say we bad kids from the start |
| [02:25.97] | Grandchildren of Marx and Coca-Cola, yet quoting Godard |
| [02:29.80] | And you saying that everything is cinema since |
| [02:32.54] | the moving pictures in the center of your living room telling you shit |
| [02:35.90] | Like you'll never be shit, walk away from all your dreams |
| [02:38.81] | Spark up, drop a lighter on a trail of gasoline |
| [02:42.08] | leading back to the vehicle you crashed before you came |
| [02:44.73] | Never looking back, cut, boom, end of scene |
| [02:48.10] | We've been gunning for that hundred and some change |
| [02:50.34] | The flicks and the flickering flames that been going the same length |
| [02:53.90] | Doing battle with the powers that be |
| [02:56.11] | that'll be no longer in position when the power's getting seized |
| [02:59.82] | So cameras we got redirected from the poor |
| [03:02.82] | I directed for my people, Lino Brocka with the horn |
| [03:05.84] | When the brother yelled action' it wasn't just for his act |
| [03:08.97] | Cause he wanted to see the masses get they asses out the door （get up） |
| [03:12.92] | My marvelous marksmanship is sharp, shit is hard |
| [03:15.63] | but we make it look not, we auteurs |
| [03:18.09] | The Godfather poster on the wall, 14 |
| [03:20.97] | with a movie in my head, writing's the next thing |
| [03:23.86] | So we shot y'all 35 millimeter rockstars |
| [03:27.13] | How about some hardcore senior to your sophomores |
| [03:30.02] | Flyer than a Concorde landing on your concourse |
| [03:33.18] | Rolling with the vanguard, burning down your arthouse |
| [03:36.05] | If it's spinning on a reel, it's gotta be real |
| [03:39.00] | But 'real' in real life just remind you of film |
| [03:44.95] | Blade running like a samurai, killing himself |
| [04:01.22] | click. |
