The Box
B.G.
Alright, I'm one-taking this shit
So, um, y' know when you order a package
Like, on Amazon Prime, right?
And then it delivers to your house
And you open up the box
And you reveal the contents inside the package
And most of the time you're like:
"Oh yeah, it's exactly what I wanted," right?
So, y' know, the box
The contents of the box are in the factory
And then they go in the box
Uh, and they get delivered to your door
When they're finally used for their full potential
But what if a box fell off the back of the Amazon truck and was never opened?
Well, I guess the contents would just be stuffed in this tiny box forever
And, uh, not ever see anything else
Yeah, we're just gonna keep this beat going
Or realize there was even anything else outside of the box
Or never be used for its potential
Now, what I'm about to tell you will blow your fucking mind
So I'm gonna give you a bar of preparation
Okay
That box is you
Okay, yeah, I recommend you take like an hour break before finishing this song
Maybe a couple days
Uh, this EP is not meant to be listened to in
Y'know, y' know, one sitting
Uh, it took me fourteen years to figure out this shit
I don't expect you to understand it in like,
Twenty minutes...ish? I don't know
We haven't finished recording yet
It annoyed me on 'untitled 02' when he was recording 'Mortal Man' and 'Kunta' at the same time
I was like, "Kendrick, what the hell?"
"'Mortal Man' is such a fitting ending, how could you have recorded it without the rest of the content?"
That makes sense because of the poem being spaced out
But it kinda, kinda bugged me
Uh, anyway
Only the wokest people know about the Box
Y'know: vegans, Aztecs, literacy teachers, me, Lucas, just- just Beg
Uh, so, they don't want- people who know about the Box don't want other people to know how to break it
Because, y' know, they want it all to themselves
They want the outsides all to themselves
But, I am a great believer in Marxism
So I am going to go against the norm
And tell you all
"Freeze, bitch!"
Kanye? Oh, fuck
