Dostoyevsky Lyrics - Black Thought

Yeah, the universe let the planets align 

Spent 10k in the card, didn't decline 

Bartender, one Casamigos and lime 

I'm celebrating gracefully, getting better with time 

I ain't even halfway through this incredible ride 

But like, I'm kind of doing an incredible job 

When I was eighteen living beyond my means 

I was afraid of my dreams, looking at the finer things 

Wishing I could l flip to a microchip from a paper clip 

Upgrade to a spaceship from a basic whip 

Cash rules everything, I just wanted a taste of it 

Fast food hurrying, saving time, not wasting it 

Self-saboteur, speaking it to my paramour 

Torch rappers like I'm igniting the aerosol 

Maintaining the wherewithal that'll embarrass y'all 

Game-changer, the way I shredded your cabbage off 

Explaining this change in apples to applesauce 

When we were young, innocence was ours, but that was lost 

Where I reside is the dark side of the glory 

The fury I manipulate is the arc of the story 

Written without a ghostwriter to author it for me 

This is crime and the punishment, I'm the judge and the jury 

Listen, Dostoyevsky

I swam with crocs, fished with sharks 

I never popped charts, but I know I'm popular 

I was built to run the game, I came up playing guard 

With young niggas between 5'5" and 6 foot 4 

I banged over both, tryna bank over some more 

And ball out in something gorgeous that'll keep me in court 

Where they'll judge like y'all does, y'all don't know me enough 

Y'all still owe us for what all y'all did to the Cold Crush 

To my donuts, I'm shooting J. Dillas and what 

I wanna cop when I get loot and recoup 

I had to go through hella doors so in short that's why I only won two 

But I ain't got Jay number, I CC 'em the proof 

'Cause everything I pictured in my head is always coming true 

They say you need vision to see eye to eye with the Jews 

Spent 25 hundred on sheep skin, let it seep in 

I ain't turn starboy in a weekend 

It took more like 7 years, make a sane man drink Everclear 

It ain't ever clear, yeah, we ain't ever guaranteed the year 

Fruits of your labor, huh, you work hard to get it 

Jamla stitched on the motherfucking ROC fitted 

Before the big life I had to start with the scrimmage 

Know that it'd come sooner or later, I'm Trae Young, nigga 

Huh, I'm Trae Young, nigga

Uh, I said Dostoyevsky meets Joe Pesci 

Tired of staring at a glass half empty 

Turning me from Dr. Sebi to cocking semi 

It got me clutching my machete from the Serengeti already 

Wild Style and Fab Five Freddy 

I'm a stranger in Moscow, don't ask how deadly is the ummah 

Patrice Lumumba, Kwame Nkrumah 

To the Tripoli shores from the halls of Montezuma 

Stop intruder, I'm built on facts, I'm not your rumor 

A malignant tumor, slid through in a suede Puma 

The steady heavy legendary, all praise is overdue 

Same cloth as the chosen few, rap Noble Drew 

I guarantee you know more music by the suckers 

It's not a victimless crime if anybody suffers 

In a system that was designed for them to try to cuff us 

Well, what's the use for them trying when can't nobody touch us? 

Unless it's fabricated, probably drug related 

But love or hate it, I will not be subjugated 

When they scream at you the greatest that did it, was underrated 

As if every other player who spit it was unrelated 

If every man's a temple, the circumstance is simple 

So to be transcendental, I do enhance the mental 

This is elder statesmen conversation 

Take a look into them books from down in the basement, yeah
