pensive - it's been a long time lyrics

[verse 1: pensive]

come inside the cl-ssroom, take off your jackets
open up to chapter one, the study of the cl-ssics
this is not your average, teacher who is speaking
more like some extra reading i’ve been sneaking on my weekends
‘cus i cannot get away from this, rapping i was made for this
study hall is like a tape to demonstrate my faithfullness
to everyone before me who expanded on the art form
i tilt my snapback hat and put my hand up on my heart for em
its been a long time since we cared about the elements
five essential parts of hip hop intelligence
if you were an mc you’d rock the mic with eloquence
bringing lyrical embellishment to your relatives
if theres evidence of your excellence your selling this
never been dependent on your popness or your relevance
i got this im the excrement, the sh-t in layman’s terms
i’m hotter than the temperature of pits where satan burns

[verse 2: pensive]

back in that state of mind, in the place and time
where i’m looking for a light, yeah a way to shine
back in the view to see, i do this fluently
representing my community
i’m doing me, it ain’t for you to be
a critic i just live it spit it truthfully
raise your hands to the place where the roof should be
and then listen to my lyrics laced through the beat
and i’m the one, always keep some heat like a gun
except its near the street on my feet i can run
at any given moment if you notice sneakers laced tight
cobra with the vocals bringing dopeness like a snake bite
its hopeless i don’t play fight, everything is real
if you focus and your aims right, better get a deal
man thats always in the movies but not everything is reel
you cannot flood the market when the levy has been sealed

[verse 3: pensive]

so without further ado, i welcome you to study hall
come in hurry one and all even if you’re young and small
you can still take notes about this generation past
that laid down the foundation that was set in place to last
they expanded on the early rap that grew out of the eighties
which sampled from the soul music they knew when they were babies
which all came from the blues, gospel mixed with jazz
now its time for me to add my own i thought you’d never ask
