The Looking Glass

[Verse 1]
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah
Soul music
Uh
When I was five years old I realized that there's a road
At the end I would win lots of pots of gold
Never took a break
Never made a mistake
Took time to create
Cause there's songs to make
In the lab making beats
For the ghetto kids
Jamaica Queens
The land of cream fiends
Where the shorties rock Nike Air Force Ones
And guns like Uzi's weigh tons
Come take a wlak to the number hold
Where the brothers got mad soul
And their stroll unfold
We politic about the problems of the world
And jewels be dropped more precious than pearls
Line for line, this mental calligraphy
Brings you closer to total soliliquey
When pen meets the paper syllables spill
It feels so real, my mind can't let go

[Hook]
Do you know where you're going to
Do you know if my rhyme was real or if it was ghost written
Do you know where you're going to
When the planet's on your back and Atlas shrugs
Do you know where you're going to
When that person in the mirror is you

[Verse 2]
Uh
You see I'm different
So don't compare me to another
Turn my music up and go check the resume
Really don't give a fuck if you like it or not
Open your chakras up, a vision of Angkor Wat
Verses I jot for your listening pleasure
Behind every bar lies hidden treasures
Born to burn, hard to earn
To whom it may concern, its my turn
I'm sitting at my temple, just plucking silly mortals
And I rock the MPC, pure pedigree
A true rolling stone, bad to the bone
6-2-1 height with the brown skin tone
Ayatollah be the highly exalted
Ayatollah his imperial majesty
I say it twice so you infidels can hear me
Say it again so you infidels can fear me

[Hook]
Do you know where you're going to
Do you know if my rhyme was real or if it was ghost written
Do you know where you're going to
When the planet's on your back and Atlas shrugs
Do you know where you're going to
When that person in the mirror is you

[Bridge]
The looking glass
And that person in the mirror is you
The looking glass
And that person in the mirror is you
The looking glass
And that person in the mirror is you
The looking glass
Let's go
And that person in the mirror is you

Yeah
Yeah
Just let the beat rock out
Just let the beat just rock out
Uh
Just rock with me
Turn the lights down
Shout out to Terminill
Let's go
