Ten Years (feat. Royce da 5'9")

Okay, so this motherfucker Logic

Flies all the way to New York to play chess with GZA (check it out)

To show that he does, and let me tell you (yeah, yeah)

This is the first time actually anybody beat GZA

In this chess series, in these chess games (yeah, yeah)

So let's just say Logic served him up a queens gambit

Egon got the La tasse in the cellar

My rhymes affect the game, Mandela

Vinyl Days kinda like the days of Roc-A-Fella

Yeah, I'm on the beat, but you know I'll murder a-capella

I stepped in Def Jam building the other day

I ain't ask for fifty million like I was Ye

I shot the video for Tetris in the hallway

In the CEO office, boy, I'm talkin' Jay

Feet all on the couch like I'm Rick James

Skyline of the city through the window pane

And spit the verse on the air conditioner

Listen up, dishin' up food for thought

In rare condition, peep the diction

Pen bleed all over the pulp, no fiction

My description of how I write lyrics is off the wall, no Egyptian Flowin' in code, peep the encryption

Ayo, ayo, my rolodex shine brighter than my Rolex

Trust my gut 'cause I know best, people think that I know less

But that's 'cause I never talk, all I ever do is walk in

Like Christopher Wallace, my shit flawless

Come with the rawless like Nobu

Y'all don't want the beef, niggas tofu

All of 'em was prayin' I was stayin' retired, y'all too hopeful

I got a notebook full of more bars than Bourbon Street

Word to Curren$y, peep the urgency

Logic bringin' boom-bap back, this shit is the resurgency

Can't fuck with that mumble-schmuble shit, it fuckin' burdens me

Ayo, ten years driven in the game with the brights on

Ten years, I murdered your ears when the mic's on

Ten years, hit after hit, I got the sights on

Ten years on Def Jam, I kept the lights on, boy

I ain't a hoodlum, they ain't arrest or murder me yet

Why ain't I Muslim? Jay Elec' ain't converted me yet

The chain immaculate, the plaque glisten the same as the jewelry

The pain is practiced, just sit back 'cause this shit came with a groupie

The stainless MAC tin clip attachment, fit the frame of this Uzi

Just can't imagine it in the act of shit to drain this jacuzzi

This ain't no actin', reenact the scripts, this ain't a real movie

This ain't no rapper switchin' to activist, this danger feel newby

Hold up, diamonds got me seasick, pursuin' dreams

Tryin' to stop the street shit, exhuming kings

Imagine drinkin' three-fifths to a human being

Because a human being deemed me three-fifths of human being

How much chillin', dope, and dough I done mentioned?

Bros I convinced to go out on lynches

Even sister Kamala, Joe Biden henchman

Even niggas T'Challa, Josiah, or Henson

Slugs to who ever the fuck that loves you

This could get uglier than a Funk Flex love booth

Always coppin' fly shit, Adidas Reeboks

On all they top five lists, just probably not B. Dott's

Woah

This is what happens when an unmovable object

Meets an unstoppable force

Like two freight trains goin' head to head in a collision

Unstoppable, unbeatable, unbreakable

They're goin' at it, head to head, toe to toe

This is the most gangsta shit I've ever seen

Logic and GZA, this is an unparalleled match
