I have not forgotten them [Ab-Soul] Diggin' for gold in these codeine bottles Trying to picture potential in these Instagram models (like) Information racing around the Internet Before the iPad was invented, I had a pad of writtens Smokin' a cig on the side of the house tryin' to figure it out The axe didn't cut it, moms told me cut it out Clem told me always take pride in my work I clutch the mic with blessed hands at all my concerts Why his name Soulo? How is he so smart? We can see his four footprints in the sand when he walk (Black Lip Bastard) I like to refer to myself in third person from the third person (3's) That's a out-of-body experience of self (yeah) So I can see me for me and no one else Don't need to see a Emmy, award or no jail (Soul) I'm at them like a cell, I just want to be free All this chatter from the chattel nigga, I don't speak sheep (yeah) This TDE and nothin' beyond that (infinite) Told Du-Dog I don't even need to read the contract (hahaha) Yeah, as if some legal documents can stop me Legalize, legal lies, legal eyes so I see I did it while you were sitting wishin', ask my nigga DZA All my verses hearses leavin' +Church's+, not the cheap chicken (yeah!) And I love the beast coast but what about the best one? What's your life without a soul? A dead one (Yeah Mac, you ain't got bars like that Mac!)
