Classic Material

from Believing In Forever (Album) by Devine Carama

about

Just wanted to give the fans a classic feel to start the album out with it. It's really a tutorial for upcoming MCs on what this game is about from a craft and art stand point. This was actually the last song I recorded for this project.

lyrics

Hook
I put my soul and thought in crafting my rhymes because I wanna make a (Classic, classic)...
I'm a decade in, it took time before my Legacy was truly defined (Classic, classic).. Picking up the mic is not s right it's a privilege, I keep that in my when I'm writing these sentences, I want make a life better for my two kids.. So I gotta make a (Classic, classic)...

Verse 1
Every time out I'm so precise with the album, always rip the mic regardless the size of the crowd and/I was always taught, you rip the mic apart, if the attendance in that bar is only 5 or 1000/ and go hard until it's hard to catch your breathe, manipulate the mic cord be careful watch your step/ and it's up to you to get the crowd moving if the shows flat, & never ever rap over your vocals on your show track / on the hooks it's ok but on your verses man that so wack, but your purpose is deeper than rap so let me show that/I don't think y'all overstand, Rap is the minimal, I want my cause's effect to last in residual/ Capture your mental when the pad hits the pencil, craft graphic visuals that last in your temple/ like a pastor to your spiritual, I practice the rituals I master my lyrical this is classic material..

Verse 2
Yo your verse are nice but I can tell you lying, so peaceful in person, but on tracks you snipe the iron/ man I need a leader, rather a lion leading 5 sheep than a sheep leading a pride full of lions/ Y'all going to end up dying trying to live your words, just rap what you live instead of trying to live what you rhyming/ Oh you hungry? Cool, let me show how Devine cook, classic here's some food for thought out the rhyme book/ Y'all following fads Y'all doing the same things, wearing the same cloths and using the same slang/ it's hard to be unique when y'all all trying to different, so in the end Ya'll weirdos is really just the same/ I don't do it for the change, or to be a star with chain, but for the art and to change the hearts & the brain/of those hopeless, of those lost in wilderness, it's more than cashing in I gotta give y'all a classic...
