Johnny, The MC - Take A Look Around (Tell Me What You See) [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
Releasing words through my esophagus
Now who on top of this
My strength is built like a rhinoceros

The day I stop writing will cause a Hip-Hop apocalypse
It sounds preposterous, but yo, let me keep rocking it

Back then I was the baby in the stroller, with the odor
As I got older the streets got colder, and I learned
Not to sell my soul for gold, even if I was told
So I got bold, and left my heart uncontrolled

I'm past prestigious, these songs could turn into masterpieces
I could touch ya inner soul through telekinesis
Lyrical genius, with a thesis, to leave you speechless
So when it comes to rhyming, you specious

You don't believe it ? I bring the flames like a phoenix
Whether Winter, Fall, or any other season
Not as an act of treason, just to give you a reason
Cause it'll be a long time before I'm leaving, what you seeing ?

[Hook] x2
Take a look around, tell me what you see
Who you wanna be, if one of use was to go would it be you or me ?
I leave you blue as sea, this thing ain't new to me, I got a crew with me
A third eye vision, it don't take two to see

[Verse 2]

I don't got time for the charades, want me to demonstrate ?
My flow is heavyweight, cause when I concentrate
I plan to dominate or devastate, won't hesitate
Because my mind'll illustrate, what would happen if my fans were to elevate

Ya try to imitate, because my style is abstract, you never had that
Cause when I came in, ya came out like a bad back
Class act, walking through my halls, where ya pass at ?
Play around and get stepped on, like a doormat

Where my dogs at ? what you call that ? legendary
Throwing it down since the 26th of February
Lyrically murder you, deliver an obituary
In this rap thing, yeoo, my mentor is the dictionary

Kept it right from the start, straight from the heart
I break charts in this musical art
I'll leave you blue as sea, this thing ain't new to me, I got a crew with me
Third eye vision it don't take two to sea

[Hook] x2
