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 first car in letters it said
'All you see is..' and you know
big, big, you know some silver letters
that '..crime in the city' right?"
"It just up the whole car?"
"Yeah yeah, it was a car and shit..."

[spanish speaking Escuchela..

[Mos
The new moon rode in the crown of the metropolis
Shinin, like who on top of
People was tusslin, and bustlin
Gangstaz of Gotham hardcore
I'm with words and ideas
My is picky, seekin what will transmit
the can apply to transcript, yo
This ain't no time where the usual is
Tonight alive, let's the inscrutable
The indisputable, we New the narcotic
Strength in and fiber optics
where mercenaries is to trade hot stock tips
for profits, thirsty criminals take
Hard knuckles on the second of workin class watches
Skyscrapers is collosus, the cost of
is preposterous, stay alive, you or die, no options
No Batman and Robin, can't between
the and the robbers, they both partners, they all heartless
With no conscience, streets stay darkened
Where unbeliever hearts stay
My eagle STAY sharpened, like city lights stay throbbin
You make a way or stay sobbin, the Shiny Apple
is bruised but and if you choose to eat
You could lose your teeth, crews retreat
Nightly news repeat, who got shot down and locked
to savages, NASDAQ averages
My narrative, rose to explain existance
Amidst the lights which remain in the distance

So much on my mind I can't recline
holes in the night til she bled sunshine
Breathe in, inhale vapors from stars that shine
Breathe out, smoke retrace the skyline
Heard the bass ride out like an mating 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 froze the night the slept
The crept through concrete jungles
communicatin one another
And ghetto where waters fall
from the to the gutters
The beast walk the beats, but the beats we be
You on the wrong side of the track, lookin shaken
Taken them plungers, to death that's painted by the numbers
crime unapplied pressure, cats is playin God
but havin children by a baby mother but fuck it
we played against other like puppets, swearin you got pull
when the pull you got is the wool over your eyes
Gettin knowledge in like a blessing in disguise
Look in the for God, what you see besides the smog
is broken dreams flying away on the of the obscene
Thoughts that put in the air
Places you could get murdered over a glare
But is fair
It's a paradox we call
So keepin it real will make you of abnormal normality
Killers Born Naturally like, Mickey and
Not knowing the ways'll get you capped like an NBA
Some cats be emceeing to illustrate we be seeing
Hard to be a spiritual being shit is shakin what you believe in
For trees to grow in Brooklyn, need to be planted
I'm asking if y'all me AND THE CROWD LEFT ME STRANDED
My pressure boiled and rose, cause New York niggaz
spoiled at shows, to the winners the spoils go
I take the L, to the 2, head to the gates
New York life type trife the Empire state

[Mos Def and
So much on my I just can't recline
Blastin holes in the night til she sunshine
Breathe in, inhale vapors bright stars that shine
out, weed smoke retrace 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, against the flesh of the
Sigh before we die like the last train

[spanish speaking woman] Escuchela.. ??

Yo...on The Amen, Corner I stood lookin at my hood
Felt the spirit in the wind, my friend was gone for good
Threw dirt on the casket, the hurt, I couldn't it
down emotions, struggle I hadn't mastered
I coreograph seven to heaven
And hell, waiting to exhale and make the leavened
Veteran of a cold war 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 long
Young with weak minds, but they butt strong
to call, or at least beep the Lord, but didn't have a touch-tone
It's a world, you gotta mush on
Some of land I must own
the city, they want us gone
Tearin down the 'jects creatin homes
My circumstance is Cabrini and Love Jones
Surrounded by hate, yet I love
Ask my God how he travellin the world sound
it hard to imagine he hadn't been past downtown
It's deep, I the city breathe in its sleep
Of reality I touch, but for me it's hard to
Deep, I my man breathe in his sleep
Of I touch, but for me it's hard to keep

Def and crew]
So on my mind I just can't recline
holes in the night til she bled sunshine
Breathe in, vapors from bright stars that shine
Breathe out, weed retrace the skyline
Yo how the bass out like an ancient mating call
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 train leaving
