Future-Brothers Of The Stone/KRS-One/Beast 1333

[00:00.000] [00:13.000] [00:16.828] Look into your future, what do you see? [00:19.206] Look into your past life, what do you see? [00:21.900] You could be anything you desire to be! [00:24.745] So what do you see, man, what do you see? [00:27.287] Do you see misery or yourself in victory? [00:29.760] We are from the future, man, we write our own history [00:32.442] Life is not a mystery, it's an extension of me [00:35.007] Do you see liberty, or the penitentiary? [00:38.548] Do you see your friends or enemies, what about poverty? [00:40.905] I'm not inside of life, life's inside of me [00:43.378] It got to be my Hip Hop philosophy, [00:45.862] That got me to the top of society's monopolies [00:48.787] Rock with me, copy me, hit the newer future, [00:52.282] A loser will not be me [00:53.942] I'm breaking these clips off something properly [00:56.566] With knowledge of self, that's Hip Hop to me! [00:59.178] Look into your future, what do you see? [01:02.104] Look into your past life, what do you see? [01:04.564] You could be anything you desire to be! [01:07.120] So what do you see, man, what do you see? [01:12.042] I treat the mic like a crystal ball, leafs are full [01:13.666] With no future- what they told me when I was back at school [01:16.046] Played it cool, did grams, until I heard the cool, [01:18.405] Fire caset with KRS teaching me the rule of Hip Hop [01:21.363] It made my path a lot brighter, [01:23.721] But this dyslexic kiddie somehow turned to a writer [01:26.298] Time to realize nothings how it has to be, [01:28.875] Anything you desire can become a reality [01:31.580] We bring philosophies you ain't used to, [01:34.355] In a Delorean, stormin' in back from the future [01:37.199] They're trying to confuse you like words from a MP [01:39.939] They want you to conform and not be free like you should be [01:42.783] **** that! Look at how far working hard's took me [01:45.395] Step outside the box, imagine what you could see [01:48.100] Or you would see if only you believed it, [01:50.678] We only use a small part of our brain, it's no secret [01:53.603] Look into your future, what do you see? [01:56.099] Look into your past life, what do you see? [01:58.735] You could be anything you desire to be! [02:01.102] So what do you see, man, what do you see? [02:04.202] Is this my destiny, [02:05.781] Or did I let the things in life get the best of me? [02:08.522] I made my own recipe, I feel the need to bless the beat [02:11.273] Never stress-fully, no hands out, [02:13.236] But then I'll take whatever's left for me [02:15.220] Cos' every person is an unwritten book, [02:17.541] The gaze ain't locked, you have to work to have a look [02:20.294] Train the mental, like I do over instrumentals [02:23.033] Like when I freestyle for hours with powers that's influential [02:25.842] Prevent you, maybe you just gotta climb a fence, dude [02:28.652] Change your life like those sore past events do [02:31.253] Even if it don't make sense, it'll clear in the future, [02:33.980] Then look back but never fear [02:36.500] Cos' it's a gamble, with before odds than the lottery [02:39.159] I've got to breathe, [02:40.192] I've got to bring ****, [02:40.993] I've got a lot to be [02:42.317] All you've got to do is open your eyes to see, [02:44.418] That the person can always pick the apple from the tree [02:47.099] Look into your future, what do you see? [02:49.932] Look into your past life, what do you see? [02:52.614] You could be anything you desire to be! [02:55.772] So what do you see, man, what do you see? [02:57.861] When you think about your life and the path that you pursue [03:00.717] And are you 100% satisfied with what you do? [03:03.597] And do you love it, do you hate it? [03:05.140] There's been many that have made it, many more that did not [03:07.312] I dedicate my life to Hip Hop, [03:08.878] And I'm happy in the knowing that my passion is my job, [03:11.236] I could've been a minimum wage earnin' burger flipping slob [03:13.975] I could've been some dead beat father with kids that miss him [03:16.855] Instead I became aware of my surroundings, [03:18.515] Aimed ahead of the game, I thought of the plan, [03:20.256] Began to stir and formulate my moves [03:21.638] Your mind should always be searching for ways for you to improve, [03:24.818] There's no perfection, just perception of preconceptions [03:27.675] If your whole family's broke, [03:29.172] You should strive to be the exception [03:30.554] I beseech, as I preach everything [03:32.237] I learnt from teach, freedom of speech [03:33.757] My growing tentacles are further in they reach, [03:35.650] Halt to a screech [03:36.660] It's never too late for the bus to turn, [03:38.436] What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger, [03:40.479] As long as you learn [04:24.882]
