Purest Hearts (feat. Chris Webby & Joell Ortiz) Lyrics


Where's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest hearts (it fills, it fills, it fills of blood)Every year they say I'm back
But I never left you
My shit is next level
I raise the threat level
I got a permanent spot in the top tenI live there, you corny niggas just drop in
You super lame, you don't really understand music
The truth remain
And you hate it because you cant do it
You transparent, they can't stand it, the fans boo it
Your chick the finish line, the whole hood ran through it
She try to act like Cinderella but that ho frontin'
End of the night her toes bunion, coach become a pumpkin
They wanna act like I owe em somethin', I don't owe em nothin'
Watch you niggas break fast like they toast butter
A perfect storm and the coast is flooded

Mos discovered that my flow is gutter
You posers sound like your growth is stunted
Rap snitches diggin' ditches, working undercover
Real recognize real, we don't know each otherWhere's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest hearts (it fills, it fills, it fills of blood)It's that new guy, all I do is make trouble
On some pills, now it's soundin' like the face muffled
Just a normal dude, focused with a straight hustle
I'm down to Earth yo, Challenger space shuttle
Blue collar and cold as a Coolatta
I'm the king up in the burbs so they callin' me Mufasa
Kill it on the mic and I do what I do proper
Just watch when I'm rocking like bada-bing bada-boom mama
I'm an animal, ferocious, I don't suggest you approach it
Or provoke it, 'cause the last time the doctor gave a prognosis
He said I was out my fuckin' mind in case you hadn't noticed
So just pass me my bottle of Adderall so I can focus
And some bomb tree, 'cause it's C-Webby and Kweli
Here to drop heat, so the wack rappers they gwan leave
Baby watch me, 'cause until I'm on the top seat
I'ma kill 'em and no one can stop me, motherfuckererWhere's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest heartsWhere's God?
Find the purest hearts (it fills, it fills, it fills of blood)Y'all in trouble, I ain't even get my feet wet
You know how much sweet flesh my teeth get these beats just
Seasoning, no reasoning, primalistic defeat again
When we begin to walk leaves fall from all of the trees and then
Weaker men was raised their head to peek within the valley
Pterodactyl, beat screech, leeches swim and stampede begins
Me and them, same species different creature
When I bleed this pen just know you're breathing in Joell Ortiz and 'em
Occupy the top of the food chain, you bottom feeder
I'm on fire, they barely warm, koala fever
I ain't even at my hottest either, y'all been lally gaggin'
Poppin' molly, dressing drag, playing follow the leader
Me I've been bodying speakers, catching a body and beatin' em
Fuckining buffied up bodies and Bali on holiday weekends
Your bitches do karate, they chopped and you probably eatin' em
Nasty, niiggas

Talib Kweli Greene (born October 3, 1975 in Brooklyn, New York) is an American MC known as one of the most prominent rappers in underground hip-hop, and is critically acclaimed frequently, despite not being commercially successful. Kweli first gained recognition through Black Star, a collaboration with fellow MC Mos Def. He released his solo debut album Quality in 2002 and has since released 2004's The Beautiful Struggle, 2005's mixtape album Right About Now, 2007's Eardrum and 2011's Gutter Rainbows. He has also released two albums with Hi-Tek under the name Reflection Eternal and a collaboration album with Madlib in 2007 plus two albums with Res under the name Idle Warship.

His name is Arabic, meaning 'the seeker' or 'student of truth and knowledge'. His parents were both college professors: his mother an English professor, his father a sociology professor. As a youth, he was drawn to Afrocentric rappers, such as De La Soul and other members of the Native Tongues Posse and in 1995 began recording with producer Hi-Tek and rapper Mos Def who he met at central park, and later attended New York University with. With Mos Def (together the pair were known as Black Star), Kweli achieved some mainstream success with Mos Def & Talib Kweli Are Black Star (1998). Also noted are Kweli and Mos' central input on Rawkus Records' compilation album Soundbombing (1997). Soundbombing also include collaborations between Kweli and DJ Hi Tek as Reflection Eternal. Together they released Train of Thought in 2000, which sold better than most alternative hip hop albums at the time. He has since released a critically acclaimed solo debut, Quality in 2002. In 2004, he released his second solo album, The Beautiful Struggle. His third solo album Ear Drum was released on August 21st, 2007.

Kweli has created his own record label, Blacksmith Records and has recently signed acclaimed female rapper Jean Grae, with rumors continuing to grow that underground veteran MF DOOM is the next artist to be picked up. He left Geffen Records and has signed with the Warner Music Group.

He has since broken through slightly more towards the mainstream, thanks in large part to several appearance on the comedy show Chappelle's Show, both solo and with long-time collaborator Mos Def, this is due to a friendship between the host and creator of the show, comedian Dave Chappelle and the rapper. He also had a guest spot on friend and frequent collaborator Kanye West's widely successful debut album The College Dropout on the track "Get 'Em High". West has also produced some of Kweli's songs, including his biggest commercial hit "Get By". Kweli can also be seen in a commercial for the NCAA's Big Ten Conference, rapping about the league's basketball teams. Talib Kweli provided the voice for the main character, Trane, in the video game Marc Ecko's Getting Up, released in 2006.
