[Intro]
La clave para la prueba del futuro empieza con el Arquitecto
What did she say?
The father of what?
[Chorus: Erick the Architect]
Time ticks by, six, seven, eight
Gotta slow it down, gotta change your faith
I see the God in everyone, on a center stage
That's liberate, that's liberate (Liberate)
Time ticks by, six, seven, eight (Seven, eight)
Sometimes you got it slow down, gotta change your faith (Change your faith)
I see the God in everyone, on a center stage (Center stage)
That's liberate (Liberate), that's liberate (Liberate)
[Verse: Erick the Architect]
How you my family when your sister and your mammy ugly?
Music had a grip on me like your own momma hugged it
I drown in thought, would I evolve off understanding that?
I fly alone and my emotions brought a planet back
Shit, can't manage that, big screen to MIRAMAX
I was just a young nigga, had my soul tinted black
Just a young nigga, watchin' old niggas peddle crack
Harsh to my emotions, I escaped from hood habitat
My fortune fewer, I been ballin' with no arm sleeves
So flee, Jordans, break 'em in like car thieves
Make your own business is truly a bizarre dream
Especially, when your school ain't got no basketball team
Champ in here like Hakeem, the block work is stock greens
Hustled when I wanna, never fumbled with the hijinx
I escaped a lot, name a project with a fireplace
Thought there was a drought of good niggas, but they (Liberate)
Rumbled with some niggas, not old enough to buy drinks
Influenced by them drug dealers with them fly minks
If you see, shorty, I can guarantee she my tings
Dead this conversation, you a rapper but your rhyme stinks
Don't forget to shine your trophies, 'cause we all got 'em
Startin' with the top row, or the ones that's at the bottom?
Got so many new ones, I think that I forgot some
If you do it on our own, it means you already got one
[Chorus: Erick the Architect]
Time ticks by, six, seven, eight
Gotta slow it down, gotta change your faith
I see the God in everyone, on a center stage
That's liberate, that's liberate (Liberate)
Time ticks by, six, seven, eight (Seven, eight)
Sometimes you got it slow down, gotta change your faith (Change your faith)
I see the God in everyone, on a center stage (Center stage)
That's liberate (Liberate), that's liberate (Liberate)
[Outro]
This song is fire, you gotta put that on your record
Time ticks by, six, seven, eight
