Directors

First up in flight like I studied Raleigh

Same sky that I'm flying that got Buddy Holly

Back from tour with the Brother Ali (Ali!)

On my Fellowship shit, pumpin "5' O'Clock Follies"

(I don't say something) I got something to say

Sometimes I'm colorful, sometimes I'm gray

We get cancer twenty times a day

We're just strong enough to brush it off and kneel when we pray (Whoa...)

The truth reveal what it may

Tumbling Dice, Dice Raw, Dice Clay

Bad cards nothing nice to play

California nights a gamble but I stay

They say home is where you hang your hat

Well I ain't hanging up that, there's no time to relax

(Keep it pushin...) Only time to react

It's Dilated for life, I'd like to welcome us back

Directors

I am the director, as far as you are concerned

Rakaa Iriscience:

First to light up the crumbled collie

I could ride skateboards but I could never ollie

Forced to war like Muhammad Ali

Shape the future like cash is clay/Cassius Clay

Melt time, the Salvador Dali the world spins through my lens

I'm focused now, thoughts wandering through my sins

Fish-eye, birds-eye, Viewfinder third eye

High-definition, high-resolution words fly

Riots for celebrating the game

Then live via satellite Laker parades

Danger in the pit, are they dancing? Are they fighting?

I block off the angles then adjust lighting

Don't believe I touch thunder and lightning

'til they see the miracles pictures, then I'm frightening

We just capture the facts

Dilated never left, I'd like to welcome us back

Directors

[Chorus]

I am the director, as far as you are concerned

Outro

"On set, the director of photography is in charge of the entire production."

"Just do whatever you have to do, from a behind-the-scene standpoint."

"I wasn't trying to, I just know that I can do it"

"I'm the director of photography" "Director of photography"

"I am the director, as far as you are concerned"
