[00:12.12] It's coming
[00:20.47] Ladies and gentlemen
[00:21.52] This time around the revolution will not be televised
[00:29.36] As we proceed to give you what you need
[00:34.27] '09, mothafucka! Get live, mothafucka!
[00:40.12] Ladies and gentlemen of the court
[00:42.63] In the hearing against The State of Hip-Hop Vs. Jay Electronica
[00:47.64] I present: Exhibit C
[00:50.57]
[00:50.99] When I was sleepin' on the train
[00:52.03] Sleepin' on Meserole Ave out in the rain
[00:54.96] Without even a single slice of pizza to my name
[00:57.99] Too proud to beg for change, mastering the pain
[01:00.91] When New York niggas was calling southern rappers lame
[01:03.84] But then jacking our slang
[01:05.30] I used to get dizzy spells, hear a little ring
[01:08.12] The voice of a angel telling me my name
[01:11.15] Telling me that one day I'mma be a great mane
[01:14.08] Transforming with the Megatron Don, spittin' out flames
[01:17.21] Eating wack rappers alive, shittin' out chains
[01:19.93] I ain't believe it then; nigga, I was homeless
[01:22.96] Fightin', shootin' dice, smokin' weed on the corners
[01:25.89] Trying to find the meaning of life in a Corona
[01:28.71] 'Til the Five Percenters rolled up on a nigga and informed him:
[01:31.63] "You either build or destroy. Where you come from?"
[01:34.87] - "The Magnolia projects in the 3rd ward slum"
[01:37.59] "Hmmm… it's quite amazing that you rhyme how you do
[01:40.31] And that you shine like you grew up in a shrine in Peru."
[01:43.23] Question 14, Muslim Lesson two: dip diver, civilize a 85er
[01:49.50] I make the devil hit his knees and say the "Our Father"
[01:52.43] Abracadabra! - You rocking with the true and living
[01:55.35] Shout out to Lights Out, Joseph I, Chewy Bivens
[01:58.49] Shout out to Baltimore, Baton Rouge, my crew in Richmond
[02:01.62] While y'all debated who the truth was like Jews and Christians
[02:04.44] I was on Cecil B, Broad Street, Master
[02:07.16] North Philly, South Philly, 23rd, Tasker
[02:09.77] Six Mile, Seven Mile, Hartwell, Gratiot
[02:12.80] Where niggas really would pack a U-haul truck up
[02:15.62] Put the high beams on, drive up on the curb at a barbecue and hop out the back like "what's up?!"
[02:21.47] Kill a nigga, rob a nigga, take a nigga, bust up
[02:24.40] That's why when you talk the tough talk I never feel ya
[02:27.33] You sound real good and you play the part well
[02:30.04] But the energy you givin' off is so unfamiliar; I don't feel ya
[02:34.95]
[02:35.27] We need somethin' realer!
[02:36.52]
[02:38.30] Nas hit me up on the phone, said "What you waitin' on?"
[02:42.06] Tip hit me up with a tweet, said "What you waitin' on?"
[02:44.98] Diddy send a text every hour on the dot sayin':
[02:48.01] "When you gon drop that verse? Nigga, you taking long"
[02:51.04] So now I'm back spittin' that "he could pass a polygraph"
[02:53.76] That Reverend Run rockin' Adidas out on Hollis Ave
[02:56.79] That FOI, Marcus Garvey, Niki Tesla
[02:59.61] I shock you like an eel, electric feel, Jay Electra
[03:02.54]
[03:03.17] Oh my God! Keep going!
[03:05.67]
[03:05.88] They call me Jay Electronica – fuck that
[03:08.08] Call me Jay ElecHanukkah, Jay ElecYarmulke
[03:11.42] Jay ElecRamadaan, Muhammad A'salaamaleikum
[03:14.66] RasoulAllah Subhanahu wa ta'ala through your monitor
[03:17.27] My Uzi still weighs a ton; check the barometer
[03:19.99] I'm hotter than the muthafuckin' sun; check the thermometer
[03:22.91] I'm bringing ancient mathematics back to modern man
[03:25.84] My mama told me, 'never throw the stone and hide your hand'
[03:28.97] I got a lot of family, you got a lot of fans
[03:31.80] That's why the people got my back like the Verizon man
[03:34.83] I play the back and fade to black, and then devise a plan
[03:37.65] Out in London, smokin', vibin' while I ride the tram
[03:40.68] Giving out that raw food to lions disguised as lambs
[03:43.29] And, by the time they get they seats hot, and deploy all they henchmen to come at me from the treetops
[03:49.25] I'm chillin' out at Tweetstock
[03:50.71] Building by the millions, my light is brilliant
[03:53.74]
[03:58.34] I rest my case
[03:59.28] '09, Act 3, first chapter of the end
[04:06.49] The last chapter of a new beginning
[04:09.93] If it's so? The things we doing we not even tryin'
[04:16.10] Be better than a lot of y'all records, don't get mad
[04:18.50] Morning after, world premier;
[04:21.64] Me? For real though – I ain't even gonna say nothing
[04:34.49] Matter of fact, I don't even why I'm saying this
[04:36.06] Jay, you should get Puff to do this over
[04:40.76] We moving out, onto the next record
[04:44.42] And um, I'mma let this just ride, ride, ride, ride… haha
[00:12.12] It' s coming
