Flawless

[Chorus]
Only legendary quotes
Listen to the play back
Whatever we make it's the return of the mack
Can you believe that?
You can receive that

It is flawless what I wrote
Try to chase this track
So far ahead you can't even trace that
So here goes nothing now
Here goes nothing.

[Verse 1]
Sitting on public transit, everything I've already planned it
Nothing coincidental, play my cards right like Gambit
Everything fresh, not rancid, snap a couple candids
I don't do jogging, I ran this, not entry level: I manage
Devour planets like Galactus without any practice
I swallow beats whole and still it comes out attractive
Study every night just to make sure it comes out right
First amendment I'll defend it with my life and plight
Flying against high winds so you call your boy the kite
And if you feel slight against me then your business is trite
Perfectionist flow, percussionists know
Keep it steady and ready I got a mentalist glow
I pulled out all the stops, pressed the button and go
Green light on, push through the door, feel the wind blow
Brush off the dirt and debris and you will see
None are as flawless and clean as me, the MC!
Say my name, T-A-K-U-Mi!

[Chorus]
Only legendary quotes
Listen to the play back
Whatever we make it's the return of the mack
Can you believe that?
You can receive that

It is flawless what I wrote
Try to chase this track
So far ahead you can't even trace that
So here goes nothing now
Here goes nothing.

[Verse 2]
Maximum potential whenever I rhyme on instrumentals
This is just perpetual, such a constant consistent mental
I go in to own, this is no rental, call this parental
And if you try to recite in my light you're gonna need dental
Obsessing and blessing every song I create
Caressing and dressing every wrong I make
Cause mistakes are just lessons further down the road
So remember each failed session and don't sweat a bad episode
My ambition wasn't overnight, but the transition polite
Since the mission was in sight, my new position is bright
Everyone can see I'm a rebel with a cause, and pause
Toying with a monster in the clutches of his jaws and claws
Is unadvised. What you provide is trying coincide
The best of both worlds: this hasn't been done or tried
So let's make history, we're starting right now
If it's not perfect the first time, we've got an entire lifetime to wow
Stand back... Ka-plow!

[Chorus]
Only legendary quotes
Listen to the play back
Whatever we make it's the return of the mack
Can you believe that?
You can receive that

It is flawless what I wrote
Try to chase this track
So far ahead you can't even trace that
So here goes nothing now
Here goes nothing.

[Verse 3]
Supremacy, delicacy, this is definitely
I've got the recipe on how to create the best of me
Flawless, lawless, continue to get polished
Drop this rawness and make an example of the novice
Impeccable, respectable, going past incredible
Boring comatose flow so I rename foes vegetables
Effective, corrected, this is a good investment
If I get tested I'll just come out far more rested
Absolute, attribute, they are just about to shoot
Deeper than palace roots, I just wear immaculate suits
Definitive, unlimited, I told you I would finish it
Take it for the benefits and I will remember this
I continue to pursue till I go out blemishless
Started ever since December Twenty-Fifth
1993 I'm the representative!

[Chorus]
Only legendary quotes
Listen to the play back
Whatever we make it's the return of the mack
Can you believe that?
You can receive that

It is flawless what I wrote
Try to chase this track
So far ahead you can't even trace that
So here goes nothing now
Here goes nothing.

Dear Year

Dear Spring, I just got my wings, fresh sprouted
Like your flowers, our first hour, undoubted
We're both new to this world, unassuming to danger
But if we resume the unknown anger, we'll become strangers
So let's keep it nice and neat until again we meet
Let's hope we don't change so much, please stay sweet
Bathe me in your gentle sunshine while I sit and relax
Let me imagine tracks while I recline back and perhaps
When I return, you'll blossom just a little more awesome
Your lush scenery is my muse, so don't stop em
But you told me you needed me to be less conceited
And I couldn't believe it, so you got a little heated
Now Summer, I'm just trying to survive this
Other guys approached you, but they called quits
As for myself, I'm right here if you need me
And truthfully, your new found fire emotionally
Has left our relationship openly revealed
Pulled back and peeled, so much squabbles and zeal
And now it just feels different
You've left a vivid image of my want for a stipend
Now you're fueling my lust for a certain need
The devil's favorite weapon with no second is greed
You got me sweating bullets and fabricating fiction
For that fascinating depiction, I becomes Nixon:
All scandal, but what happened to the depth?
I refuse to stoop down to this level, but what's next?
Now you're leaving? Oh, that's real great
Autumn, you should know I've got a lot on my plate
You're just going to let me drop dead and cold?
C'mon, quit with the act, it's getting kind of old
Sweeter than candy, and now you're giving thanks
Quit with the lies and games, no need for the pranks
I told you from the beginning, I'll be right here
As soon as you realize it and get over your fear
I know you didn't like me because of my lower stature
But you read my brief introduction and my chapters
And now after all that, we've returned to laughter
That's good, you've already got me enraptured
You're changing again? Well that's fine, by all means
I hear rumors that you've become an ice queen
But not you Winter, cause past all the glitz and magazines
You can still make a teens fantasy and dreams
Become reality, having me defy gravity
Floating down like snowflakes falling out of the galaxy
You've finally become a little more chill and collected
You've accepted and finally respected my perspective
I'm glad after all this we've finally did something right
So after all the darkness, it comes back to light
But strange enough, it goes full circle
Laws of nature require this to be all universal
You've warmed up to me and crowned me king
This isn't deja vu, is it now Spring?
Seasons have changed but I haven't stopped
The metaphor is reasoned to be Hip Hop
This is genuine, so use that letter opener
Read this parchment, I'll never be gone (when it's over!)
