作词 : Lin-Manuel Miranda/Ingrid Michaelson/Lonnie Lynn/Tarik Trotter/Ramon Ibanga, Jr 作曲 : Lin-Manuel Miranda/Ingrid Michaelson/Lonnie Lynn/Tarik Trotter/Ramon Ibanga, Jr 制作人 : !Ilmind 混音师 : Mikaelin 'Blue' BlueSpruce 编程 : !llmind 母带工程师 : Chris Gehringer 人声 : Ahmir Thompson/Tarik Trotter My mind flashes I see the asses of the masters Who test the masses I ask if I'll ever be one When I die will heaven be done What will my legend become I will forever be young Through old tales of breakdancing down at Odell's Streets named after me is where my soul dwells Desires of a church choir trinity united I think of good memories that Hennessy provided Memories divided by perception
Will it be water for chocolate or resurrection The path to perfection is rarely achieved I head in that direction I dream and believe
An underground dude that overachieve From the windy city I was blowing they eaves Somewhere along the way I aired out MCs But to stand out some days you may freeze
Degrees Who lives
And who dies
Who holds on to all our lives
Time and time and time again
Will they tell your story in the end
Who lives who dies who tells your story Yo the anticipation arose as time froze The black men in the morgue were John Does Lynched for whistling at blond-oes I said a prayer with my eyes closed As I loaded the Roscoe's at the sink yo I been a bullet on the brink But being a young king Probably different than you think though The quills that I dip into the ink go to document And you'll remember me when I'm extinct Yo sing the carol at a young pharaoh Who slew Leviathan with one arrow As I revolve through the gun barrel just to watch it unravel I tell them have heart must travel Keep my legacy alive even if I don't survive 'til the curtain call First of all realize what we working towards
**** around find what we searching for The earth my name written in cursive on
Who lives
And who dies
Who holds on to all our lives
Time and time and time again Will they tell your story in the end Who lives who dies who tells your story
Who lives
And who dies
Who holds on to our lives Time and time and time again
Will they tell your story in the end
Who lives who dies who tells your story Frozen in time I can't let it go Nat cole unforgettable
The pedestal I'm on I'mma end up on the Federal Reserve note your money with a hip hop quote I might change legislation with some ***t that I wrote From boats that we came on to lights with our name on Through hard times we spark minds to keep the flame on I write hard rhymes like I'm running out of time Truthfully my stopwatch is one with the divine Centuries from now they'll play my freestyle And say this is the brilliance of a black American child Endowed by the streets and the chi proud Known to move in silence but can be loud
The noise of beat girls and boys Building to destroy the perception of urban aggression My life is progression of chords for the oppressors A chorus my story is the glory of the lord
Who lives who lives And who dies who dies Who holds on to all our lives
Time and time and time again Will they tell your story in the end Who lives who dies who tells your story
