Luyện nghe bài hát It's Been a Long Time

It's been a time
It's a long time
It's been a long
It's been a long
Rakim the soloist

Follow procedures the couldn't wait to see this
Nobody been this long awaited since
Who wouldn't believe this I heard the word on the is
I'm one of the deepest on the mic since Adidas

said I changed the times from the rhymes that I thought of
So I some more to put the New World in Order
With Mathematics, put status above the average
And help you rappers, make paragraphs with

new days is dawnin', new ways of peformin'
Brain stormin', I write and watch the night to mornin'
On and on and, I got the whole world
Rock, I keep it hot and the spot without warnin'

The Emperor, well for, inventin' a sentence
Full of adventure, up the temperature
with adrenaline, how long has it been again
To be in the state of that Rakim is in?

It's been a time
Rakim, the microphone
It's been a time
been a long time

When I'm out proppin', either, hangin' or
People see me stop and ask me the album droppin'
The is over, information like a soldier
I told ya, greater stronger, now that I'm older

I broke the, code of with overloads of talents
My challenge, is not to explode in violence
I'm Asiatic, and blazin' a habit
At once durin' the course of a day, it's automatic

In ghetto apparel, of a Egyptian Pharaoh
Far from shallow, thoughts like an arrow
Allah's monotony, so far they can't me
You know, Ra want property Mumar Khadafi

thoughts than Bibles, recital, taught disciples
A sawed off mic, so words like a rifle
Thoughts trifle, I'm bustin' these for you
Aiyyo, technical difficulties is

It's a long time
Rakim, the soloist
It's been a time
Rakim, the microphone

It's been a time
Rakim, the microphone
It's a long time
been a long time

When I float at night, I show 'em new heights, I go to
They know I with new prototypes to blow the mic
Critics and biters, don't know where my of light is
Still authors and writers with arthritis

Cursed kids like the Pyramids they found the style
First to ever let a rhyme flow down the
The rebirth of be dropped now
the crowd didn't hear the original in a while

So be alarmed, you 'bout to see is the bomb
Like, 3-D in' 'Nam, vivid like
Info kept "Internet.com"
My my bond like the Holy Quran

I came in the door, said it before
But no I ain't down with Eric B no
At night the open mic be me to rhyme
So yo I'm online, been a long time

been a long time
It's been a long
Rakim, the soloist
been a long time
Rakim, the microphone

It's been a long
It's been a long
been a long time
It's a long time
It's been a time
