one of the most underrated rappers of all time.
Yep, and one THE greatest emcees ever #nodoubt!!
He might be the greatest EMC ever
He is the best . Not one garbage song ever .
I attend a really prestigious art college on a full-tuition scholarship. Which meant high expectations in a mostly wealthy & non-Black environment.
It’s been the most difficult 4ish years of my life, but this song and other MA tracks like “I Refuse” helped me through.
I’m graduating this year. 👌🏾👨🏽🎓 Thank you for the motivation, Ace.
This the theme song. YBI stand up!!!💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾🎓
Hey imma say CONGRATULATIONS, takes a lot to do what you did and I know your folks are proud
Masta Ace really deserves more love
Mature Hip Hop, We need more Conscious Hip Hop like this in 2024. Love This!
Are you kidding me, only 1262 views!??? Lovin' the song, respect to Masta Ace!
Been listening to this track repeatedly lately. Even in the gym. Respect to black culture and Hiphop. Love from Britain. 🇬🇧👊🏻
The whole “Fallen Season” album is a classic without any doubt.
DJ KaNeck yes indeed...man they slept on this album
Totally with out an equivocal doubt... a slept on album of 2016... I bet if this was kendrick Lamar song it would've been a whole movement behind it...man I heard the labyrinth track with frankie Beverly of frankie Beverly and Maze fame...shit brought me to tears....this was a haunting album..in the trilogy of Ace's albums it was the pre cursor to Dee fate... very very very slept on album...it is a shame that our culture is disposable.
Extremely underrated song 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I wish I could give this song more then one thumbs up like it deserves!
In my top 10 favorite emcees,Grown man music ,love & respect !
Greg Hampton “Grown Man” Music is right and exact.
Lotta love for ace dope af...I really feel sorry the ones who haven't watched this...
This song is a classic. It represents so many of us from the hood. As a teacher, I always share it with my students. Been loving Masta Ace since the symphony.
This should have millions of views
Disgusting how little views this video has. It honestly pisses me off lmfaoooo
Gyro Xaver The real hiphop will always be there for us beat lovers, crate diggers and people who actually wants to hear what the rapper says. The majority of people are sheep who follows whats trendy, and unfortunately in this case its trendy to be a soundcloud rapper who mumbles like an idiot, not beeing a brother with soul like Ace. But as i said, real music will always be out there for people like us
The masses don't care for real Hip Hop. They no NOTHING about this! ....been like that for decades
Such a great song
Masterpiece. A song for all the underdogs out there.
damn been doin it since the 80s and still super relevant, top 5 emcee for sure a legend, go ahead and argue that
Beat Junkie2016 sadly he is so fucking underrated
Beat Junkie2016 is this a mixtape? becouse an italian rapper called Joe Cassano used the same base in the 90s
Just recently got into Ace a few years ago after "Son of Yvonne". I resonated with the songs because my mom passed in 07. Then I got more familiar with his catalog. He doesn't miss!!!
Keep Alive and live masta Ace, masta of time & place☀️☀️☀️ world and soundspace still need you, how long it possible , do stay here 🎸☮️🔥🔥🔥
love this song
The Lyrics. ✊🏾Young black intelligent, this is not a first
But it feels like it's curse and it weighs like a elephant
Heavy on my mind, 'cause I feel so irrelevant
Heavy on my heart, it's like I'm smart for the hell of it
Heavy on my soul, it's our stroll through the 'ville again
Stranded on this island, feel like I'm Gilligan
Friends got jailed and then they got bailed
Stress that I'm under, I just wonder when they kill again
Please understand that I'm living in the concrete
Jungle where I stumble is the crumble under my feet
In the building lobby, see my man Bobby
Puffing on a joint that's the point where our eyes meet
Asked what's the weight on the books in my knapsack
He's so amused, I'm confused why he asked that
Then I understand the motive and the plan
He's trying to be the man while I stand getting laughed at
Dudes got jokes but very little hopes
That's why they trying to bring me down like a halfback
But I got balanced, my moms made a promise
If I get the grades, I'll be praised like Thomas
Clarence; but I don't know if law's in my future
Cops in the war and they'll sure try to shoot ya
All I wanna do is get a B in geometry
Lose my virginity and live my life drama free; sing
[Pav Bundy & Masta Ace:]
As I sit and count these clouds
I sure hope my ma is proud of me
Why be I? - why be I?
Why be me? - why be me?
If I fly - if I fly
They gon' see - they gon' see
I might die - I might die
But I'll be free - but I'll be free
So why be I? why be I?
Why be me? - why be me?

[Masta Ace:]
Penny for your thoughts, a nickel for your dreams
A dime for your goals and a quarter in your jeans
Trying to make a dollar outta forty-one cents
Caught up in the barbed wire, shorty on the fence
I can be a knife-packing, gun-toting hooligan
But I can't decide so I'm on my way to school again
On my way to duel again, me against the world
But all I can think about is me against a girl
Youthful exuberance, busting at the seams
Look at all the other kids cussing at the deans
Looking at all the other kids cutting 8th period
But I'm on a team and my coach won't hear of it
He's well aware of it, I ain't getting pinched
Y'all dummies go ahead I ain't getting benched
Whole lot of right and a little bit of wrong
And everything you've worked for? Gone
[Pav Bundy & Masta Ace:]
As I sit and count these clouds
I sure hope my ma is proud of me
Why be I? - why be I?
Why be me? - why be me?
If I fly - if I fly
They gon' see - they gon' see
I might die - I might die
But I'll be free - but I'll be free
So why be I? why be I?
Why be me? - why be me?

[Chuck D:]
In this state of emergency and sense of urgency
Just how young is young?
Cause the youth be not youth for long
Young society might be afraid of you
But you continue to be you
We are you, so we feel you
For that those that see you
We salute you
Continue to find like minds, brah
Design your inside, concentration, desire
Dedication, inspiration, perspiration
Is the hard work
Doesn't guarantee anything
But without it, you don't stand a chance
Intelligence will save you
And us too
Peace
Keep goin' on cause you're a real MC ✊
“Dude’s got jokes, but very little hopes” - crushed a platoon of these characters in merely 8 words.

Masta Ace Iconic
my favourite storyteller in all of hip-hop
I love this song 🎵
Classic!
I just heard this song about two months ago. I assumed it was a new track, and wasn't aware this track was five years old. Nevertheless, it's money and I wanna hear more tracks such as this one.
Same sample as J Dilla's Lova Jones, but flipped in a totally different way. They are both beautiful tracks.
Great video! 🔥🔥

Same sample like O.S.T.R. - Brzydki, zły i szczery song. From album Hollyłódź from 2007 year. It seems kinda not Ok.
O.S.T.R - Brzydki, zły i szczery. Same sample.
