black star & yummy bingham - no fear of time lyrics

[intro]
no fear of time
his children will be the way
if he’s given the white world h+ll, what will his children do?
this wasn’t no play+thing
the motive is that the seed of a man chosen by god must not be wasted

[verse 1: talib kweli]
run away, that’s the plan, live above the grave
none is safe, i see the pain on a mother’s face
a ton of grace is what she showed as they took away her first+born
she didn’t break, she didn’t look away because of race
they said her life wasn’t valuable but that was fake
they said a wound create capital but that was rape
they say because she black that it’s impossible
to be racist but they assume that racism is logical
we know better, we know metals, no rose petals
hiding in the shadows like wesley snipes in mo’ better
they play oppression olympics, looking for gold medals
we don’t settle
[chorus: yasiin bey & charles manson]
you know, a long time ago, being crazy meant something
nowadays, everybody’s crazy
on
keep on
float on
no fear of time
float on
float
ladies and gentleman
you know what i’m saying?

[verse 2: yasiin bey]
a message from the ancient future, a fresh fossil
a piece of the buried gospel that the earth refused to swallow
a seed grown into a tall tree, long sleeves
ripe fruit and eating off the leaves, warm breeze
live from the summer that the incline
and this has been everything beside a short ride (short ride)
marks the greatness, battle scars and bruises
seen there is clarity, clashes and confusion
live from the summer that the incline
and this has been everything beside a short climb
we done survived and thrived and where others have died and
bed+stuy, do or die, so, do is what i did
get it on, get her done, another one, another one
banging mad lyrics um, you can feel a different run
where they get their rhythm from, the tipping point, t.o.p?
black star reconvened, boulevard of anne greene
that kings county keep creating kings
who make amazing and creative things
so give thanks for the aliquant raw, the elemental is sharp
god give us the design and we assemble an ark and just float
[chorus: yasiin bey & charles mason]
on (nowadays, everybody’s crazy)
keep on
float on
no fear of time
float on
float
it was water then (ladies and gentleman), but it’s fire next (you know what i’m saying?)
that’s a promise not a threat, check

[outro: greg tate & yummy bingham]
everybody had to think about what was possible for a black artist
you know, within the international, the mainstream scene
and, uh, i mean, and that opening was there because of hip+hop
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding
the doors cracked open a little bit
the people downtown were looking for some new energy
and they were already feeling it from just the presence of kids from brooklyn
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding, yeah
being downtown or being in the east village
they had the same type of impact that the jazz cats had
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding
and they were coming with, like, a new culture
a culture that was new, that was dynamic, that was sophisticated (sophisticated)
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding, yeah
the albums were theory books, they’re guide books too, you know what i mean?
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding
when they were fourteen, fifteen, they grabbed onto this thing
so they learned all that material
i want to thank you for helping me reach the understanding, yeah
you know, i mean, one of the things we know about emcees is, man, they just have phenomenal memories
(phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories, phenomenal memories)
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
phenomenal memories
