Lyrics
Uh, about to tell you who I are
About to introduce myself
Came a long way and I still got so far to go
Reflecting on the journey, acknowledging there's more to achieve
Tee off with this trademark flow and after tonight
Starting with a distinctive style, preparing to make a significant impact
I'mma let the whole world know
Intending to reveal to the world
My name is Evidence
Identifying as Evidence
You ain't got no
No
Evidence, evidence, evidence, evidence
Repetition emphasizing the importance of evidence
If this is crime scene cinema
Reflecting on past experiences, keeping connections with lost friends
All the weak shops closed
-Is it back to charging motherfuckers four for an O
-I don't know I keep a rotary phone
-So I remember all the numbers of my homies who gone
-Proof is in the pudding
Resisting fame and material pursuits, valuing personal integrity
I'm pressed up and labeled Evidence
-But never chasing fame, dragons, chicks, or dead presidents
-Dreams, but never snatch chains of any measurements
-Because of my name, for every fuckin' crime they find the relevance
-Choices in my life that I want to correct
Acknowledging past mistakes, dealing with relationship challenges
I got voices in my head that I want to forget
-Uh and I don't live with regret
-But I've been living with a chick while other chicks try to text
-It wasn't me
Denying involvement or guilt
You ain't got no
Reiteration of the need for evidence
Evidence (There's no proof without the)
-Evidence (Who wants truth without the)
-Evidence, evidence
-Yeah, my first album only had underground appearances
Highlighting underground roots, staying true to lyrical art
So what's the outcome, I'm still an underground lyricist
-And fame don't even capture what my interest is
-I'm halfway to famous, halfway away from infamous
-My naked eyes are like my memory chips
Comparing memory to naked eyes, expressing unfiltered truth
Everything digested comes up when I spit
-I say so be it without a whistle, call it how I see it (Yeah)
-Whether in my boundaries or in another region
Navigating life, maintaining spirituality and humility
I'm speeding on the highway with my girl shotty
-Keep a plant in my car, like Good Friday
-Keep my world Godly I stay grounded like my lobby
-Aging bucket on the wall but never tat it on my body
-My music and my graf are livin' separate lives
Balancing music and graffiti, facing consequences of choices
One gets me paid, the other's payin' the price
-Either way they'll say I'm spraying at night
-But how the fuck, when I'm touring overseas on a flight
-It wasn't me
Denying involvement or guilt
You ain't got no
Repetition emphasizing the importance of evidence
Evidence, evidence, evidence, evidence
-The flow's connected like I knew people
Connections in the music industry, reminiscing on name origins
Director of photography, I shoot people
-Named by Will.I.Am, maybe made a milli
-Maybe I don't give a damn (True)I thought of Evident
-He mispronounced it, Evidence, fast forward
-Here we are, standing in the present tense
-I never thought about fame
Initial thoughts on fame and recognition, acknowledging change
I just thought about if K.R.S. would know my name
-But since then it's like so much has changed
-Body baggin' the shows, they say I'm killing the stage
Acknowledging success in performances
It wasn't me
Denying involvement or guilt
You ain't got no
Repetition emphasizing the importance of evidence
Evidence, evidence, evidence, evidence
