[Verse 1: J-Live]

Ayyo I see y'all through these speakers and headphones

Bobbin to the beat, anticipating a poem

In the streets and boulevards or parts unknown

Your office, warehouse, or restricted zone

At your friends place, or comfort of your own home

Whether ya' just arrived or about to get gone

Whether ya' eating breakfast or about to bone

With your spouse, with your peeps or on your own

You see me? Not likely, not on TV

Despite that though I show you something in 3D

It's not that hard, but it's not that easy

I paint a picture in your mind with each rhyme

They say my words write a thousand pictures

A thousand scriptures, couldn't prophesize

How the images hit the spot where the best light

In the house be, just to show all y'all what I see


[Chorus: J-Live]

Some see with the eyes, and

Some see with the hands, I'm

Hoping you see with your ears

If you understand,

From the chosen track down to the vocals on it

It's just live thoughts recorded

So that you can own it

Some see with the eyes, and

Some see with the hands, I'm

Hoping you see with your ears

If you understand

The type of music people frame up on your wall

This is the audio-visual for all of y'all


[Verse 2: J-Live]

Ayyo I see y'all average, 'C' average rappers

Please, pass the mic', cause you barely passed the class

I was new school late, I be old school early

My classics kicked the head of the class' ass

With all sales final, accepted "as is"

It's no checks written that my rhymes can't cash

Like Cassius Ali, I leave you leaking excuses

Like you wouldn't hit a man with glasses

But despite these four eyes

I still paint a picture with words

That be a sight for sore eyes

Sample a cliche to touche hearts and minds

If you get the point, you see things my way

Not like you need some quote-en-quote Coke bottles

You just be rocking a pair, sweating your role model

The vocab' chump change I maintain

It's what your mind would hope to obtain if it struck lotto

I guess in that way we see things differently

We at the same vantage point seeing different things

Y'all see yourselves as struggling starving artists

I take advantage of the progress the struggle brings

Y'all see yourselves as bubbling pop rock stars

I see so many bubbles popped I never got far

The only stars I know is in the sky, in a child's eye

That's why I just try to describe what I see


[Chorus]


[Verse 3: J-Live]

Yo, y'all saw bootleggers stealing music killing me

I saw fans keeping the buzz healing me

In fact, I see 'em at the show they feeling me

That's why I'm still in the field, even without a deal

These ain't the last days but they say they soon to be

People's audio-visuals in the name of unity

I see poison pushers in they own community

Saying "Fuck It" that's they only opportunity

I see grown folks acting just like little kids

And little kids thinking that's what they should grow to be

I see herbs outside wishing they were killers

And I see killers inside wishing they were free

I see gods, and we build on how we see degrees in the light

Food for thought like Apple Jacks we eat what we like

But hopefully we like what we need

And the truth is the light

If its right, you could see


[Chorus]
