Gang Starr - Beyond Comprehension Lyrics
Expanding the depth of your brainpowerOurs is a better gift, not to be bragging nor lolligaggingI can see dimensions of sound and light around my micTransmitting lyrics like teletypeReacting to a beat in a whisperAnd like a transistor, Im sounding dope when Im crisperThe shortest length between two points is a straight lineIve gotta take mine, I heard it through the grapevineThat some cant find hype lines (hype lines...)And so Im smothering, over my prey I am hoveringSuckers Im shoving at the same time coveringYou with the blanket of some language thats distinguishedHow swift can I get? you ask and Ill tellFor I can excel real well like a gazellePast your head, Im grabbin abstract thoughtLike some gain glory, while others get no partI feel for the hurt ones, the victims of wrong deedsAwareness is key, our people have strong needsScience, math, history theologyPhilosophy psychology english and biologyEt cetera, and all of these have a purposeBut genocide makes me nervousSo many questions, many opinions to mentionAnd damn (damn...) this jams beyond comprehensionLike planets in orbit, we ride the life cycleSome take a rifle on the street cause it seems neatWhatever turns you on I guess, thats why vests are in seasonIll do my show then Im leavinId rather be blastin dope sounds on the other side of townThan be there when they close the place downBut anyway, everyday, theres another wayFor a person to just flip, so a brother maySimply go buckwild, get crazy and madI know the struggle my father hadPoetry it comes from within, and will always winHold captive bodies from end to endAnd at a party, Ill survey then slay with the quicknessDisplaying the fitnessEasing the mind and relieving the tensionAnd singing my own song... thats beyond comprehension
