[00:19.11]Can you speak your words of bedtime
[00:23.05]I was just saying to myself the other day
[00:27.76]Most of believing the magician
[00:31.03]But you're bewitching
[00:33.97]Because of this I must say
[00:36.22]I （I）
[00:38.17]I （oh I）
[00:40.37]I
[00:42.88]Appreciate what you give to me
[00:45.52]Yeah （I）
[00:47.27]I （oh I）
[00:49.40]I
[00:51.79]Appreciate what you give to me
[00:53.85]People say I got soul look at all the records I hold
[00:55.99]The lives I've affected, connect and control
[00:57.56]
[00:58.21]With me in your basement, your mama got blown
[01:00.89]I provide the vibe to keep the strippers on poles
[01:03.01]Through me the black experience is glorious told
[01:04.88]From a school that's old bold, so I rock gold
[01:06.90]And platinum, so cats I hold notes and cash for them
[01:09.53]On streets I rap for them, in ghettos I blast for them
[01:11.98]Mash with them, at the party and all
[01:13.85]Peep the universal language that's embodying all
[01:16.05]Put the Billie Holiday, Bob Marley in y'all
[01:18.25]Y'all feel most high when I be in y'all
[01:20.62]System, with the rhythm I up jump the boogie
[01:22.95]Shame I rely on record labels to push me
[01:25.03]Since the bush, I been y'all way to escape
[01:26.71]
[01:27.85]Through eight-tracks wax CDs and tapes
[01:29.54]I am music
[01:30.54]
[02:05.57]You can feel me all over alive, I help culture survive, I opened the eyes of many
[02:09.65]Styles y'all wrote in the skies, with your lows and highs, open your mind to hear me
[02:14.16]In the streets I beat cops and obsolete
[02:16.23]On every station it's hot you can't stop my heat
[02:18.42]I taught J and Dre how to rock the beat
[02:20.62]On what's going on today yo, I gots to speak
[02:22.88]I take the stand, yo you could feel me bam
[02:25.33]Whether in Larry Graham or Steely Dan
[02:27.78]Live I be killing it man
[02:29.16]For how long I survived yo I'm realer than man
[02:31.66]Got a soft side but I'm still a man
[02:33.80]For me women cry and children dance, I'm trying to eat
[02:36.69]I could'a got a mil and ran
[02:38.18]But like Sly for the fam still I stand
[02:39.88]
[02:40.54]I am music
[02:42.16]
[03:17.13]I been here since the beginning
[03:18.94]Beginning of time yo beginning of time
[03:21.34]Deep in the mind of the ancient ones
[03:23.47]Everybody love me like they do the sun
[03:25.59]I shine at times yo at times I'm dark
[03:27.66]You can't categorize me, my mind's a art
[03:29.86]Inside my heart, it ain't about climbing charts
[03:31.98]I'm the one you roll with when your ride is smart
[03:34.68]The change that came, the change that comes
[03:36.63]I change with chords and I kick it with drums
[03:38.83]Get blow with horns and did it on the one
[03:41.27]Riffed for guitars, for the Lord I sung
[03:43.51]Spun around the world at parties and weddings
[03:45.70]Wherever I go I create the setting
[03:47.32]You know me from lessons or your pops collections
[03:50.07]Whether whole or half stepping I'm a blessing
[03:51.62]Yo I am music
