Inspiration

歌詞

I made this beat, 2003ish Wrote to it but never got it completed I love the fell love the vibe that I acquired Spit a couple lines but wasn't really inspired See inspiration is the thing that keep my brain ticking If you don't feel inspired, someting in my veins missing I wasn't too strong Quit that and moved on, never looked back And started working on a new song But as a beatmaker, you never know A track that I ain't feeling might inspire someone else's flow I sell beats, internet and in the streets Helping poets paint pictures, I'm the canvas so to speak I sold this beat to a guy named Phil He reached out as a fan, hit me on my email Told me I inspired him, he loved what I was doing He said I motivated him to start pursuing music Gave him the intrumental, call me when you done writing But I never heard back and really never thought twice It happens often, rappers never finish nothing So it didn't seem strange he didn't hit me back with something A couple months passed, that was fine Then I got another message with Phil's name in the subject line "Class, I'm a friend of Phil's from back in the day And the music you made, inspired him in many ways He changed his life around, got it on track I want you to know, cause last week Phil died in a car crash" What? ? ? you serious? I barely knew the guy but shit it hit me fairly quick We all forget how much life should be admired Sometimes we all forget how our music does inspire Inspired Phil? nah, Phil inspired me To finish up my song over top of Phillip's beat
