Inspiration

I made this beat, 2003ish

Wrote to it but never got it completed

I love the fell love the vibe that I acquired

Spit a couple lines but wasn't really inspired

See inspiration is the thing that keep my brain ticking

If you don't feel inspired, someting in my veins missing

I wasn't too strong

Quit that and moved on, never looked back

And started working on a new song

But as a beatmaker, you never know

A track that I ain't feeling might inspire someone else's flow

I sell beats, internet and in the streets

Helping poets paint pictures, I'm the canvas so to speak

I sold this beat to a guy named Phil

He reached out as a fan, hit me on my email

Told me I inspired him, he loved what I was doing

He said I motivated him to start pursuing music

Gave him the intrumental, call me when you done writingBut I never heard back and really never thought twice

It happens often, rappers never finish nothing

So it didn't seem strange he didn't hit me back with something

A couple months passed, that was fine

Then I got another message with Phil's name in the subject line

"Class, I'm a friend of Phil's from back in the day

And the music you made, inspired him in many ways

He changed his life around, got it on track

I want you to know, cause last week Phil died in a car crash"

What? you serious?

I barely knew the guy but shit it hit me fairly quick

We all forget how much life should be admired

Sometimes we all forget how our music does inspire

Inspired Phil? nah, Phil inspired me

To finish up my song over top of Phillip's beat

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
