I love this song so much. Apparently the song is a dedication to his grandma. And what a song it is - the meaning is vey obvious. he is saying that no matter his stardom he is going to stay true to himself, although Jay-Z's rap was selfish and self glorifying so it didnt stick to the song meaning (no matter how good his flow was)
J-Ivy's poem is absolutely flawless, he made me love poetry because i have never heard it like that and so meaningful like that. One i finished listening i rewinded it because i felt so insipered and uplifted. It is a very uplifting song, you have to listen to it like 10 times to appreciate every word he says. My favourite is : That's why I get spiritual, but I get my hymns from Him
So it's not me, it's He that's lyrical
I'm not a miracle, I'm a heaven-sent instrument
My rhythmatic regimen navigates melodic notes for your soul and your mental
That's why I'm instrumental
Vibrations is what I'm into
Yeah, I need my loot by rent day
But that ain’t what gives me the heart of Kunte Kinte
and of course the majority favourite:If I were on the highest cliff, on the highest rift
And you slipped off the side and clenched on to your life in my grip
I would never, ever let you down
And when these words are found
Let it been known that God's penmanship has been signed with a language called love
AND
That's why my breath is felt by the deaf
And why my words are heard and confined to the ears of the blind
I, too, dream in color and in rhyme
So I guess I'm one of a kind in a full house
Cuz whenever I open my heart, my soul, or my mouth
A touch of God rains out
I love the whole thing together and hate all you want but i think it was wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy better than Jay-Z's self glorifying rap.

(And Kanye West was mind-blowing as expected)
