Wylin Out

(feat. Diverse, Prefuse 73)

[Diverse]

My mind compliance like a science

Analyze my data, not a fader on the face of the earth

Can blend rhythms like my will, surreal spinnin

Ever-movin like evolution it's retribution

For sellin roots, lessen futures, I'm steppin to fuse? ya

Sun rises my subconsciousness culminates constant

Live to see various i-de-ologies, angles like isosceles

read my auto-b-i-ography

So many stars? to me that vibrantly shine

Velocity's properly thick like mahogany dimes

We findin beauty in this urban-gritty usually overlooked by many

Movin through the densely populated city

And soon and eventually - 'we gotta get ova'

I document culture closer to the edge

Bolder than a print, open to interpretation, gazin deep into the glitz?

To my people, raise you fists

I know it stays intent, whatever pays your rent, but saves your soul

You know the drill, it go:

[Mos & Diverse simultaneously]

Hotter than most dudes

From left to right, on top and below you

Flow like the coastals, move like smoke do

-I'm Diverse- these other cats is just hopefuls

When they ask who put it down, baby, you know who

Tell your whole crew, it's somethin that you need to know, dude

This is how we go through

[Mos]

Who the poisoned pen?

Mos got the inkwell full of syrum

Prescribed for any emcee claimin they ill

A small dose'll change the way that they feel

Milligrams in the raw, snow-cut, check how I label the pill

It's MD, the spit-doctor, chant like a witch-doctor

Recite me, and ya whole ailment get proper

I'm the, medicine man, representin my clan

Mixin the potion with verse fire and simmer, my man

And stay shoutin out the home team wherever I am:

it's the B-R-O double akh-K-L-wY-liN out

The cowboys who don't fret to pull they lamas? out

Ironhorse style cab?, hoop-te ville ridin out

No lights, no cam, action - drama'd out

?? out, absorb the shit that I'm about

Inner-city Bruno, ghetto folks, holla out

I'm good money, tell the doubters get they wallets out

Hot when the dice is out, they go broke findin out

Smack ya mojo, caught a half of 'oh no'

Magical vocals, get it down like coastals?

Underground nigga that spoke truth and broke through

Shine bright when I'm far from my close-to

I told you, you know how Mos do

Hotter than most dudes

From left to right, on top and below you

Flow like the coastals, move like smoke do

-I'm Mos Def- them other cats is just hopefuls

When they ask who put it down, baby, you know who

Tell your whole crew, it's somethin that you need to know, dude

This is how we go through

[Diverse]

Exposed to a higher set of variables, as fly as aerial

Definin stereo components, moments with my master

Remasterin techniques, havin some fresh sheets

Damagin margins with a broader outlook - 'we lookin out, y'all'

Me and Mr. Mighty Mos, we outlaws

Blazin in the saddle, raisin like the mornin star, formin majestic

Candescent like the street lamps, I-be-amped to inn-o-vate

Reminiscent of technology, probably just my will to build

To real notions of emotions similar to the seven seas

Steadily sparkin cables, tables turnin like the high tide

I'm captive to this music, vastness, into it i skydive

Tumblin like buildings crumblin on inner-cities cumbersome

They comin to run us out, my niggas shout for justice

You wanna link with me, then let me know

This music is like my vessel so we seem to be inseparable

From C-?Sea?-town, headed eastbound

You know the rest, it go:

Hotter than most dudes

From left to right, on top and below you

Flow like the coastals, move like smoke do

-It's D-I- these other cats is just hopefuls

When they ask who put it down, baby, you know who

Tell your whole crew, it's somethin that you need to know, dude

This is how we go through
