Luyện nghe bài hát Respiration

"what'd you do night? "
"we did umm, two whole
It was me, dez, and main three
And on the car in small letters it said
'all you see is..' and then you
Big, big, you know some block silver
That said '..crime in the city' "
"it just took up the whole "
"yeah yeah, it was a car and shit..."

[spanish woman] escuchela..

[mos
The new moon high in the crown of the metropolis
Shinin, who on top of this?
People was tusslin, and bustlin
Gangstaz of hardcore hustlin
I'm with words and ideas
My ears is picky, seekin what transmit
The can apply to transcript, yo
This no time where the usual is suitable
Tonight alive, let's describe the
The indisputable, we new the narcotic
Strength in metal and optics
mercenaries is paid to trade hot stock tips
For profits, thirsty criminals pockets
Hard on the second hands of workin class watches
Skyscrapers is collosus, the cost of
Is preposterous, stay alive, you play or die, no
No batman and robin, can't tell
The and the robbers, they both partners, they all heartless
With no conscience, streets stay darkened
Where hearts stay hardened
My eagle stay sharpened, like city lights stay throbbin
You either a way or stay sobbin, the shiny apple
Is bruised but sweet and if you to eat
You could lose teeth, many crews retreat
Nightly news repeat, who got shot and locked down
to savages, nasdaq averages
My narrative, rose to explain existance
the harbor lights which remain in the distance

So much on my that I can't recline
Blastin holes in the night til she bled
Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright stars that
Breathe out, weed smoke retrace the
Heard the bass ride out like an ancient call
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the breathin
Chest heavin, against the of the evening
Sigh we die like the last train leaving

kweli]
Breathin in deep breaths, sittin on shitty steps
We stoop to new lows, hell the night the city slept
The beast crept through jungles
with one another
And ghetto where waters fall
the hydrants to the gutters
The walk the beats, but the beats we be makin
You on the wrong side of the track, lookin visibly
Taken them plungers, to death that's painted by the numbers
With crime unapplied pressure, is playin god
But havin children by a baby mother but fuck it
We played against each other like puppets, you got pull
When the only pull you got is the wool over your
Gettin knowledge in jail like a in disguise
in the skies for god, what you see besides the smog
Is broken dreams flying away on the wings of the
Thoughts that put in the air
Places where you get murdered over a glare
But is fair
a paradox we call reality
So keepin it real make you casualty of abnormal normality
Killers born like, mickey and mallory
Not knowing the ways'll get you capped like an nba
Some cats be to illustrate what we be seeing
Hard to be a spiritual being when shit is what you believe in
For to grow in brooklyn, seeds need to be planted
I'm asking if feel me and the crowd left me stranded
My blood pressure boiled and rose, cause new niggaz
Actin spoiled at shows, to the winners the go
I the l, transfer to the 2, head to the gates
New york life type trife the empire state

So much on my mind I just recline
Blastin holes in the night til she bled
Breathe in, inhale vapors from bright that shine
Breathe out, weed smoke the skyline
Yo don't the ride out like an ancient mating call
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the breathin
Chest heavin, the flesh of the evening
Sigh before we die the last train leaving

[spanish speaking escuchela.. respirando ? ?

Yo...on the amen, corner I stood at my former hood
Felt the spirit in the wind, knew my friend was gone for
dirt on the casket, the hurt, I couldn't mask it
Mixin down emotions, struggle I mastered
I coreograph seven to heaven
And hell, to exhale and make the bread leavened
Veteran of a war it's chica-i-go for
What I know or, known
So some days I take the bus home, just to home
From the I spend months gone
Sat by the window with a clutched dome listenin to shorties cuss
Young girls with weak minds, but butt strong
Tried to call, or at least beep the lord, but have a touch-tone
a dog-eat-dog world, you gotta mush on
Some of this land I own
Outta the city, want us gone
Tearin down the creatin plush homes
My circumstance is between and love jones
Surrounded by hate, yet I home
Ask my God how he thought the world sound
Found it hard to imagine he hadn't been past
deep, I heard the city breathe in it's sleep
Of reality I touch, but for me it's hard to
Deep, I my man breathe in his sleep
Of reality I touch, but for me hard to keep

[mos def and
So much on my mind I just can't
Blastin holes in the til she bled sunshine
in, inhale vapors from bright stars that shine
Breathe out, weed smoke retrace the
Yo how the bass ride out like an ancient mating
I can't take it y'all, I can feel the breathing
heavin, against the flesh of the evening
Kiss the ide's goodbye, I'm on the last train
