Ab-Soul - Real Thinkers Lyrics






[Verse 1:]
It's Mr Ab Soulutely
More drive than the fastest hooptie
More alive than a newborn unicorn in the sky
And I just get more fly by the second I wreck it
That immortality is not a myth or just a lie
'Cause every time I speak this thesis is justified
Sublime rhyme and reason being why
I am I sayonara if you can't keep up for the ride

[Hook:]
Just for my
Just for my
Just for my (open up)
Real Thinkers (Open Up)
Real Thinkers (Open up)
And touch the sky
Touch the sky
Touch the sky
Real thinkers (open up)
Real thinkers (open up)
You thirsty?
Open Up Your Mind

[Bridge: x4]
Niggas don't think
Niggas don't think
Niggas don't

[Verse 2:]
Understand exactly what it takes to be creative
And display greatness the dedication it takes
The time consumption the stakes if you say it ain't high
That's a blind assumption and open your eyes or something
Defy the odds
Multiply with nothing grip the skies
I open minds in hopes that you open your mind
Holding my fro and scoping the scene out
And spitting sixteens spitting my spleen out
Thought I had it made but ain't shit clean
And I been chasing this dream since Wayne made Bling Bling
I drift off in thought and teleport to Beijing
Pushing 25 but still feelin like 18
With more insight than a encyclopedia
The Carson Arson warm enough to fight anemia
And I'm just warning up
Got em sweating bullets big enough to load the pump

[Hook:]
Just for my
Just for my
Just for my (open up)
Real Thinkers (Open Up)
Real Thinkers (Open up)
Real Thinkers (Open Up)
You can touch the sky
Touch the sky
Touch the sky
Real thinkers (open up)
Real thinkers (open up)
Open Up Your Mind

[Bridge: x4]
Niggas don't think
Niggas don't think
Niggas don't

[Verse 3:]
Strategize, just fantasize
They don't emulate they just antagonize
They don't illustrate they just be writing rhymes
They don't demonstrate they hide behind their lines
And on my rise to success
I'm just searching for the perfect concept
I swear I'll be the Einstein of my time
It's not E but AB equals MC squared

LONG TERM MENTALITY

  42. J.... K....

    every album soul has dropped is worth universal time, if you a student of soul you would get it

    J.... K....

    Agreed.
    Abs is the most concieous artist I've ever had the pleasure of listening to.
    Not just as a rapper but as an artist.
    Unparalleled wordplay and subject matter that few ever take the time to grasp.
    Reminds me of Gang Starr but on an even more sophisticated level.
    Lifelong Soulo fan here.

    J.... K....

    +Carey Jackson I love your comment

    J.... K....

    +Carey Jackson what about Lupe?

    Pray Soulo don't go mainstream.  It would kill him.

    P.... V....

    I hope SoulO sales out people got to hear his nibiru track and that pineal gland spiritual shit,jus kuz hes a sale out dosent mean hes gunnuh change his style or lyrics,the mainstream came to him and his fellow TopDawwgs.

    P.... V....

    Sell out. That is the word.

    P.... V....

    Real Thinkerrrs

    P.... V....

    @ṨyḂΦ Hope you would get shot for being this stupid. And even if your excuse for being stupid is HURHUR IM A TROLL IM COOL. I still hope to god you die.

    P.... V....

    @ṨyḂΦ douche

  44. J.... A....

    This whole album is slept on.

    J.... A....

    Fuck yeah. This shit came out before kendrick was even famous lol

    J.... A....

    Before he was famous, but he did release The Kendrick Lamar EP 2 years before this.

    J.... A....

    Jerry Acosta timeless shit

    J.... A....

    album artwork is dope too

    J.... A....

    It won’t be slept on after Longterm 3

  45. S.... Y....

    To me Ab-soul is together with kendrick the best rappers in the world! it's my opinion!

    S.... Y....

    +Sylvere YABA Facts!!

    S.... Y....

    +Sylvere YABA this aint rap its find a mind in your mind blow

    S.... Y....

    Ab said" i aint a rapper but if i was this is some shit that i could rap after

    S.... Y....

    To me, he's better lol

  46. C.... Z....

    Please stop comparing Ab-Soul with Hopsin. 

    C.... Z....

    hop is trash

    C.... Z....

    Johan Liebert yep corny trash

    C.... Z....

    Johan Liebert
    eye dont listen to trap music it spreads retardation. and hopsins message is shallow he doesnt give any sort of wisdom he jus talks about brutally killing people cuz they do drugs, hes a depressed fuck and the sound of his music just doesnt sound good to my ears.

    C.... Z....

    Johan Liebert i used to like hopsin like 5 years back im over him now

    C.... Z....

    It depends. I don't like comparing bc it discredits just how good rappers really are. And imo, ab soul and hopsin and both super talented in different ways. Their too different type of styles to compare. Ab soul tackles deep, philosophical problems and ideas that no other rapper holds a candle, and not to mention his wordplay and lyricism is on another level. Hopsin on the other hand speaks for himself. I don't feel like typing much more hopsin is great as well in many ways just two different styles of rap. U can't really compare.

  47. J.... E....

    This whole album is mind blowin ab soul is one of the niggas who would never sell out like drake ab's too much of a real nigga

    J.... E....

    ha so you think

    J.... E....

    ohhhh the irony (these days...)

    J.... E....

    @tom kumar Ha, your too stupid and ignorant for ab. (These Days) don't you get it? He's making fun of today's rap, that album is very lyrical, you just to blind too see it g

    J.... E....

    @tom kumar yeah you're an idiot.

    J.... E....

    Making fun of music doesn't mean produce bad music. It is lyrical but NOT musical. Period. Hell even the stuff he's supposedly making fun of is more musical than what he put out.

  48. S.... R....

    3R! #Bangz

  49. K.... C....

    Gosh I need to keep up with this shit.

    K.... C....

    Are you rapping?

    K.... C....

    aiSŽesl

    K.... C....

    Shit came out in 2011 baby

  50. J.... N....

    This song is such a great message inspirational in a sense.Its surreal that he makes many songs like this in an era of greed and materialism. 

    J.... N....

    Time of essence

  51. H.... P....

    The best.

  52. H.... P....

    The best.

  53. J.... -....

    This is a classic

  54. d.... b....

    That's real talk.... "Thelcantbeleivethis"

  55. T.... ....

    Niggas always arguing just shut the fuck up. Everyone has a right to their own opinion, it's an opinion not a fact. Keep that shit in mind.

  56. T.... ....

    The Beat Sounds A Little Like Lil Wayne's "Trouble" Track

    T.... ....

    Stop hating on the soul and go back to listening to Wayne you bandwagon bitch

    T.... ....

    @twonster18
    Calm down he simply compared to instrumentals.

    T.... ....

    @FourteenthReactor
    Nah fuck that! We don't even mention Wayne's name around here. He BETTER sht the fuck up before he gets dealt wit..

    T.... ....

    @twonster18 I been chasing this dream since Wayne made Bling Bling. Soul even mentioned him. chill.

    T.... ....

    Same sample

  57. P.... B....

    This nigga the truth foreal. Same mind as me.real person right here

  58. D.... ....

    why does ur rapper must be the best of the world thats.. why these thinkers feel facked up cuzzz.. thats the mentality we just dont want... unite and fight against that power that supress us all cuzz its them who want u tho discuss those stupid discussions u all aiming ur focus wrong pffff... -_-

  59. B.... ....

    first few seconds of this song feels like your being dragged into the beat
    luv it soooo much

  60. S.... S....

    Ab-Soul, you truly have a wonderful Soul.
    <3

  61. K.... ....

    It shows why you dislike fuckin humans

  62. L.... 1....

    THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE YOU!

  63. P.... ....

    And you can analyze flow (who stays on beat more, who's more rhythmic, who's capable of flowing faster) and conclude who has a better flow... Sorry but that whole "you can't compare artists cuz it's opinionated" is just a pathetic defense mechanism used when one's beloved artist is being criticized, used by mostly simple minded people, or delusional people, or bias people... OR, all of the previously stated...

    P.... ....

    music isn't just about skill

  64. P.... ....

    You can also break down and compare lyrics through analytical process and conclude who's the better lyricist.

  65. G.... C....

    Cudi needs to be on this track for real

  66. j.... s....

    Kid cudi would kill the the chorus i think

  67. s.... n....

    The best rappers alive are eminem, jadakiss, method man, redman,snoop, dre, 50 cent, game,, dmx, xzibit, nas, ice cube cassidy, styles p, andre3000, busta rhymes, mos def, krs 1, rakim (no particular order).......... jayz (trash), Hop is raw has alot to prove, Along with Kendrick ab and j cole.....then lil wayne is a succesfull rapper and has alot of dogshit out

    s.... n....

    smolder nugz do not disrespect Lil Wayne like that bruh please don't do it

  68. s.... n....

    YOU'RE COOKED

  69. s.... n....

    and thats just 6 that are alive. LOL.

  70. s.... n....

    Eminem, jadakiss, styles, cassidy, nas, crooked i, kendrick, will all shit on jayz and kanye....you fool....and theres so many more that dont even need to be named will shit on them.

  71. K.... C....

    This should be at the top of every YouTube comment section.

  72. B.... ....

    Hopsin is fucking repetitive and plain simple.

  73. M.... S....

    Uh Mf Doom who half of them look Tf up to.Tss TSS

  74. C.... s....

    im guessing its something to do when your bored

  75. y.... ....

    I attempted not in righting myself above anyone else, but rather to bring the ignorance that so many people spread unknowingly to attention. I know I am a "real thinker". Something you might want to ask yourself is why you would assume me to be attempting to set myself at a higher place than another, when you are attempting to best me yourself. Are you not? All 3 of my eyes are open, are yours?

  76. R.... B....

    If proving a point is pointless, why did u just say anything? you just attempted to prove yourself to be more right than those whom you said something too. Try being a "real thinker". Open up your eyes. C=

  77. A.... B....

    Wow this is a terrible song xD

  78. z.... ....

    eminem nas pac biggie and rakim were the best kendrick is on his way there

  79. V.... G....

    theres no comparing Ab-Soul with these other rappers..
    soulo ho3 is unique , he is his own.
    listen!!!
    CARSON!

  80. o.... ....

    Fuck Kanye u need 2 put Logic

  81. C.... S....

    Ppl like u make the comment section a little more boring

  82. K.... m....

    gat damm

  83. y.... ....

    30 minutes from now, not a word any of you said on this video will matter to anyone. Not even yourselves. Now answer this question, if possible: What is the point in your arguments? Just to prove you're right and another is wrong? Congrats, what did it accomplish? The answer is just as simple as all of your thought processes. Nothing-ness. Try being a "real thinker". Open up your eyes. C=

  84. x.... ....

    stay hiii and vibe out to this shit

  85. J.... D....

    youre an idiot for mentioning 80% of them and not kanye.

  86. C.... M....

    Btw I know he made music a few years ago but I meant he just got really famous

  87. C.... M....

    This man just got real big, he's amazing and so talented but best of all time already? Give me a break wait a few years he'll be there but now? He's on freshman class for Christ sakes. No doubt is he a lyrical genius do not get me wrong.

  88. E.... C....

    Well seeing some of these idiots arguing makes me want to throw together a list of what I think are the best rappers. Like if you agree with at least some of em. Wiz Khalifa, Ice Cube, Big L, Biggie Smalls, Tupac, Ab Soul, Kendrick Lamar, Big Krit, Asap Rocky(he's not really the best rapper, but he delivers his music really well, and has good beats), Kid Cudi (chill rap), I'll put Eminem on here for his old songs, Snoop Dogg, and Classified (don't hate he's got some good songs)

  89. l.... ....

    Top rappers of 2013 Kendrick Lamar,Big Krit,J.Cole,Joey Badass,Wale,Asap Rocky,Action Bronson,Ab Soul,Earl Sweatshirt, Kid Cudi. No particular order.

  90. l.... ....

    You forgot to mention Big Krit,just sayin.

  91. W.... ....

    you forgot R.A. the Rugged man he has been around since the early 90's, he is white also, a true pioneer of hip hop and one of the greatest of all time im sure you will appreciate his music :)

  92. P.... ....

    You are an idiot.

  93. P.... ....

    You're a bigoted imbecile. What makes you believe that your opinion is superior to mine? Fuck it anyways I don't listen to rap now... This is wasting my time. You people on this video can talk shit all you want but I won't be responding and you're all likely morons.

  94. P.... ....

    LOL. I never said that Hopsin is one of the greatest. I don't listen to Rap anymore so i'm not gonna argue. But to your comment... LOL.
