Better Than I've Ever Been - Ye/Nas/KRS One
Classic
Uh uh timeless timeless
Classic
Timeless timeless
Yeah yeah oh oh
Can't buy this super fly in this
Like shininess you're highness
It's performin look how long the line is
It's what happens when you make sh*t that's timeless
It's what happens each rapper's the pioneers
What would it take to be a legend like Nas is
That's so novice I'm so polished
I got a right to be a 'lil snobbish
I did a 'lil bit of College
Semesters it took two like Rob Base
To let me figure out this was in my place
The beat's slow 'til you listen to my pace
Cause I be killin' sh*t but that's evident
And y'all feelin' it but I expected
If it's classic - it's gon' last forever than
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless Timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless Timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
See the fake hustler rapper
To them it hurts to hear this
Oh you went platinum Yeah that's nice
Now let me see you do the same thing twice
Three times four times then a couple of mo' times
Please you're Amateur Night it's Showtime
It's one life to live so live it the best you can
The world could use one less man
Not enough air not enough car factories
To manufacture new vehicles sedans and vans
When they do make the whip you like
Your chips ain't right
By the time you could afford it
In the streets I'm in it's just iron
Cops keep firin' in my environment
Leavin' you slumped then they drive home
Far from the hood brothers they eager to jump on
I like to be the wall that they toast up on
I like to see them fall guilty for doin' wrong
I'm classic like the Air One's the hustler shoe
That's what I'm accustomed to yea
Classic oh oh
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless Timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
How many of y'all got Criminal Minded
You you you y'all don't be blinded
Me I got no jewels on my neck
Why I don't need em I got your respect
KRS One twenty years I rock
I do it for JMJ and Scott La Rock
This hip-hop and we's a nation
Don't you wanna hear more KRS-One on your radio station
Instead of broadcasting how we smoke them trees
On the radio we need to hear more local emcees
Where you at c'mon where you at
This is the difference between emceeing and rap
Rappers spit rhymes that are mostly illegal
Emcees spit rhymes to uplift their people
Peace Love Unity havin' fun
These are the lyrics of KRS-One
Classic oh oh
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless Timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm better than I've ever been
Timeless Timeless
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm everywhere you never been
Times times
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
Classic
I'm everywhere you never been
Times times
I'm everywhere you never been and better than I ever been
