The Feeling - Blu & Exile/Jacinto Rhines.mp3

[00:04.560] The feeling
[00:05.345] Only the feeling, gives real happiness
[00:09.084] Only the feeling, nothing less
[00:12.334] Only the feeling
[00:15.693] Only the feeling
[00:28.335] The feeling is gone, couldn’t even pen a good song
[00:31.631] I had to let it go, and ask God to direct my flow
[00:35.229] My life was blessed, even times when my life was less
[00:37.955] I kept faith, and God kept me in a good place
[00:40.797] I faced adversity before, not saying it was worse
[00:44.367] I’m really saying now it’s even more
[00:46.787] But I can’t let it put me underground
[00:49.084] I have a kid to live for, I got to find a way to make him proud
[00:52.322] Especially when there’s police killing children
[00:55.015] And you got the nerve to try and ask me how I’m feeling
[00:57.643] My nigga, I’m a black man, not trying to turn this to a racist thing
[01:01.103] Cause worldwide, we can see that it’s a racist thing
[01:04.315] I think you’ll understand if I explain it like a man
[01:06.886] But just being honest yo, I don’t have the plan
[01:09.913] All I got is two hands, to touch what is real
[01:12.982] And honestly, I stopped giving a **** how you feel
[01:15.764] The feeling
[01:17.319] Aye yo they robbed me for everything I have
[01:29.831] So all I ever worked for was thrown in the trash
[01:32.747] They took all my equipment and the masters to my records
[01:35.922] They took away the biggest part of my child’s investment
[01:38.854] Questioned, but no I wasn’t given back a dime
[01:41.652] Cause I didn’t have insurance, all they're sure of is the crime
[01:44.604] And the fact that I’m broke, and my life is on the ropes
[01:47.294] But I got good health, trying to buy high hopes
[01:50.230] But you never know
[01:51.648] Some people lose a lot more, and can’t get it back
[01:54.535] And that’s why I’m torn
[01:56.203] I have a huge love for making music to encourage
[01:59.043] But now I can’t afford to record no more
[02:02.045] I got warrants for fighting and that made my life a lot harder
[02:05.606] Not to mention I’m too poor to support my daughter
[02:08.767] But they’ll never know so I just keep on killin’ it
[02:11.403] Whether or not I’m even feelin’ it or fulfillin’ it
[02:14.667] The feeling
[02:37.849] Yo, the feeling is true, real, something you can feel
[02:40.712] The feeling is deeper than any rapper’s record deal
[02:43.598] The feeling is the healing, not the killing
[02:46.655] The feeling is one of the reasons I’m still living
[02:49.556] But I don’t got it brother, all I got now is God
[02:52.113] And my will that all of me and mines survive
[02:55.365] I’m trying to let it go, though I never thought I would
[02:58.253] I kept it so deep inside, I never thought I could
[03:01.143] Not sure if it returns, or if it just burns
[03:04.106] But I learned, the feeling is something that’s confirmed
[03:06.948] Though it’s not eternal, and it’s not deep as love
[03:10.078] I know back then I felt it like blood
[03:13.347] I can hug, I can kiss, I can even get dissed
[03:15.647] But all I know is the feeling will surely be missed
[03:18.374] I felt you, and yeah it almost felt like I held you
[03:21.498] The real is the only thing that can replace the feeling
[03:24.707] The feeling
[03:30.663] It’s the feeling
[03:55.952] It’s the feeling
[04:12.479] The feeling

[04:52.117] Only the feeling, makes a word a poem
[04:54.494] Joy is the feeling that we feel so strong
[04:58.155] Only feeling right makes you not feel wrong
[05:01.919] Lust and greed feeling, others are leaning
[05:05.047] Without feeling, life has not much meaning
[05:07.903] Only the feeling, makes true songs to sing
