Under Oath lyrics

by

Talib Kweli


[Verse 1]
Patiently waitIng
But what about when you've out waited your patience?
Took every bump and bruise
Did everything but lose
Everybody saying you made it
Work so muhf*cking hard
n*ggas ain't hungry, n*ggas ain't soft
Saying that the grass look green on the other side
n*gga wouldn't dare step foot in my yard
Angels, demons; sh*t I got one on each shoulder
Snakes got me surrounded by cobras
Tryna take advantage of all the sh*t that i showed them
Wasn't smart enough to listen to what i told em
Told 'em, it don't come over night
n*gga's lose they mind when they over hype
n*gga wanna see the top n*gga better get right
How you gonna take flightSo you gon' fold or you gon' take a chance with a fear of heights
I put on for my city I still got my n*gga's with me
That been with me since i had the Jimmy
With the tank on empty
n*gga please i done been through hell
I ain't break a sweat
I'll take on the world by my motherf*ckin self
Look homie, lady luck ain't let me f*ck
I got my sh*t the hard way
Realest n*gga alive until the day that God say
So till then I'm gonna bring the world havoc
Tell my little cousin Jack I'm still at it

[Hook]
That is unbelievable
Unbe-f*cking-lievable
I’m still breathing, what it is, is unbelievable
Un-be-f*cking-liveable, oh
I’m still here cause b*tch
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
(I show you n*ggas how to do it)

[Verse 2]
See I ain’t gon' quit
I ain’t gon' die
Ain’t no tears in my motherf*ckin' eye
What I’m gon' cry over this rap sh*t?
I got too many of my real n*ggas in the sky
What you seein' right here
Is the drive of a real n*gga
Ever since I was a lil n*gga
Ate pain like a meal n*gga
From the hood make a hundred dollars look like a mil n*gga
Now light skinned hoes
They wanna know where I’m goin'
They wanna know what I’m into
Not knowing what I’ve been through
So Imma f*ck you and your friend too
f*ck if it offends you, I'm mental if I offend you, I’m mental
Cause I deserve that
Greed in her eyes looking right at me
And Imma hit this ho
For the nights I use to treat a ho
Like she had these money johns
Honey fast, money fast, ho’s my n*gga I got it
Big money for the shows, my n*gga I got it
Paypal for the feature and make a deposit with the bread on down for the feature and make a deposit with the bread on the fly
My n*gga I need it
It ain’t no use to turn it back
Every time I fall, I learn from that
See a fork in the road, can turn from that
You pay dues and you get what you want from that, uhh
[Hook]
That is unbelievable
Unbe-f*cking-lievable
I’m still breathing, what it is, is unbelievable
Un-be-f*cking-lieveable, oh
I’m still here cause b*tch
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
I’m ready, I’m ready, I’m ready oh, oh
(I show you n*ggas how to do it)

[Verse 3]
Yeah, back when I was a senior, dreamed of fillin' arenas
Little money, couple b*tches, shoulda changed the demeanor
Wise n*gga won’t keep it if a n*gga don’t need it
Take what you need, life’ll bite you in the ass when you greedy
f*ck the world, get it on your own, you’ll never quit
At the end of the day you don’t owe nobody sh*t
How it feel? n*gga, is it real? What more can I say?
Food for thought, peace of mind, is all I want on my plate
You gon' learn every circ*mstance won’t be in the plans
So you gon' fold or you gon' take a chance you gon' fall or you gon' take a chance
When sh*t ain’t in your hands?
That’s the difference between folks that get it and folks that be wishin'
That things would turn out different
f*cked up thing is it didn’t, and that’s real…
