Luyện nghe bài hát It's Been a Long Time

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

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

They said I changed the times from the that I thought of
So I made some more to put the New World in
With Mathematics, put your above the average
And help you rappers, paragraphs with graphics

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

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

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

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

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

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

More thoughts Bibles, recital, taught disciples
A off mic, so words scatter like a rifle
Thoughts that's trifle, I'm these for you
Aiyyo, technical difficulties is

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

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

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

Cursed kids like the Pyramids when they found the
First to let a rhyme flow down the Nile
The of hip-hop'll be dropped now
'Cause the crowd hear the original in a while

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

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

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