Dilated Peoples - Years in the Making lyrics
[Iriscience] Aiyyo Ev (Whattup Rak?) There's a lot of cats didn't see this one comin Lotta cats not gon' understand Never saw the path that we walked You run that joint you did on the radio that night (Oh) Let people know, do this one for the interviews Do it for the people, Years In The Making [Evidence] Yo, my first verse, from '90 to '94 Mostly peepin cats' styles out and hittin the floor A little bit, in '91 that's when we got down Different sides of town, on the bus I made rounds I was involved in graffiti heavily My people were Self, Tau and Freck RIP At night I heard beats next door by QD III Inspiration, destiny, Ev producer/MC Now at this point, my face wasn't known and unfamilar And when you look how I do, most cats won't say they feel ya So I was mostly, humbled by rejection But in my heart, I knew my shit would always pass inspection Correction, travel east and hit the inner section Hip hop shop to rock, blow the spot wit Hex and Pen One Also Iristyle, a cat who worked there I said "I wanna bust first" he said "It's all fair" I went, he went, you can't beat em, join em I said "As a team in the game, we'll leave em maimed" He agreed, so we did till '94 Till we had to change our name from the one we had before Now at this point, we were five years in the making Previously vain, graffiti oriented, breakin From cops to shop owners, rack and paint, stealin sketch books Mad vinyl, designs in corridors Then it was mics, mixers, tracks, and greenbacks Kingston, 12 gear and equipment on racks Imagery Battlehymns Whattup to Kendall, Swift, and Redman Everyone who helped bounce checks, but not my plan (Sorry) Business and friends, this was my first introduction How foul it is when it comes to this biz Of music, 1995 was mad confusin '6 it cleared up, independent geared up Peace to Ben, 'Fari, and Alchemist Third Degree type heat, brought on Babu to complete the list Dis the doors, more red but on tours The territories come, blunts burn our damn floors Since '98, shit's been lookin more bright Work The Angles round the globe from Main Events at night '99 approach millennium, The Platform will drop Evidence, Iriscience, Babu, the world gets shocked! [Iriscience] (Evidence) Haha! Yeah! We sendin this out to every obstacle that made us stronger (That's right) Uh-huh Sendin this out to the poison that made the antidote Dilated Wild Style Evidence, that's all you need to know Years in the making, (What's goin on, ten years in the making) Years in the making, how many? (Ten) (Almost) Ten years in the making Shit, it's overnight right? (Not really) We'll see *Babu cutting up sample* |
