Luyện nghe bài hát It's Been a Long Time

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

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

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

'Cause new is dawnin', new ways of peformin'
stormin', I write and watch the night turn to mornin'
On and on and, I got the world respondin'
Rock, I keep it hot and blow the without warnin'

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

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

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

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

In ghetto apparel, of a Egyptian Pharaoh
Far from shallow, travel like an arrow
Allah's monotony, so far they stop me
You know, Ra want like Mumar Khadafi

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

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

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

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

Cursed kids like the Pyramids when found the style
First to ever let a rhyme flow down the
The rebirth of hip-hop'll be 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 like
Info like "Internet.com"
My my bond like the Holy Quran

Since I came in the door, said it
But no I down with Eric B no more
At night the mic be invitin' 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
It's been a time
Rakim, the microphone

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