The Blinding

[Intro: Swizz Beats] This shit make you wanna talk crazy, crazy, crazy, I'm tryin' to.. Kayfa ḥal-uk? Kayfa ḥal-uk, habibi? [Verse 1: J A Y E L E C T R O N I C A & JAY-Z] Once upon a time there was a likkle yout, the cub of a lion Stored away captive a long way home from Zion The dove Prince sang about in "Purple Rain" cryin' 'Til the midget you heard tell of on his shoulders of the giant Listen, I named my son, sir, so you gotta call my son, "Sir" That boy already knighted, he ain't even out his romper You speakin' on the kingdom, you better watch your tongue, sir I send you where you never been, you forget where I'm from, sir That gossip bout some bald heads, who got shit out the gun, sir I'm brazy, I'm so brazen, I'm "Raisin in the Sun" sir You can catch this broad daylight, you know the kingdom come, sir That wheel inside the wheel a half a mile in circumference It's the return of the Mahdi, it's the return of the Akhis It's the return of lost and found tribe of Shabazz the Annunakis It's the return of Mr Shakur spittin' out phlegm at paparazzi That's my new style [Chorus: Travis Scott] Blinding (Hit-Boy!) Blinding by the light See the stars and our sun [Verse 2: J A Y E L E C T R O N I C A & JAY-Z] The gift that keeps givin' like Babushka Kush crushed up in the studio, rollin' Kate Bush up Extra, extra, it's mister headlines Who signed every contract and missed the deadlines 40 days, 40 nights, tryna live up to the hype It's the road less traveled, it's the one who missed the flights Hov hit me up like, "What, you scared of heights? Know you sister tired of workin', gotta do her something nice" I'm like, "Don't he know I stay up for Fallon late nights?" She need bread, she need rice, she need threads, she need ice Either tell it to my bank account or say it to the dice When I lay down in my bed it's like my head in the vice When I look inside the mirror all I see is flaws When I look inside the mural all I see is walls And the wee hours of night, tryna squeeze out bars Bismillah, just so y'all could pick me apart? [Chorus: Travis Scott] Blinding Blinding by the light See the stars and our sun [Outro] (Hit-Boy!)
