Jenkins, Mick - Alchemy Lyrics
It's like turning nothing into everything
Starting with scraps and redefining what society thinks is quality
Like who thought up the golden standard the haves?
The have nots ask not what you can do for them but what have you done?
I mean you're sick and you're tired and you're hungry and you're thirsty
Because truth is harsh but it burns, but it's also addictive
You want more till you...
Drink more water
Flooded the market, murdering flows it's blood on the carpet
A crime scene, gave 'em the light
Wait 'till I turn on the high beams
Niggas ain't seeing me
Drunk off this water you might just see 3 of me
Don't greet me as God, my nigga I ain't no deity
Curing my countenance, creating this gold from the lead in my pencil
I think I'm a alchemist, and it's gon take courage no cowardly dogs
In the pound, we don't want 'em round
No love lost or found, don't give a fuck bout a clown
Bit 'em with the Pros conversation profound
I was down on my luck but I'm still myself
Drinking all this water tryna heal myself
Know I keep it real even steal homie
Just want you to feel It I don't really ever feel myself
Remember when I had to find a meal myself
Fresh out of jail, crashed at my nigga Slims
He ain't think twice bout the shit
The move was a roll of the dice
Know the lord on my side cause them 63rd nights was a bitch
Always knew that life wasn't this though
Still had to get right with the wrist wrote this though
With a little light and a pistol
Lowkey, peep how he keep the peace, you know me
They say I be talking bout water too much
You hear that?
That's how many fucks I could give
Still I got love for a hater would give up a rib
They say they confused about ginger ale
Well come have a sip when it's chill
Y'all need to chill
People tell me I'm that nigga now
I know none of that shit is real

Jenkins, Mick Alchemy Comments
2020 still gotta bump this
Let's all make sure Mick has about 5 or 7 kids. We need 5 or 7 more Micks.
Dont u gain water weight when u drink creatine?
He been cold
To me (age 41) this has that "new sound" that absolutely hate. But THIS guy uses it well a s I added it to a playlist.
so many trash rappers in the hip hop /mumble rap scene for gold like this to shine
This is one of the best songs let along rap songs that I've ever heard in my life.
No lie .. chicago has a talented group of artists.
Drink more water!

Nurs Karbz 1:15

Do the fucking instrumental!!! With every single word deleted, not like in other instrumentals...
Shit slaps
We definitely need to give respect where it's due, Lee Bannon is one of the best producers in my book.
he's originally from Alabama
I'm mad I'm just now hearing this
It's actually disgusting that Mick Jenkins is this underrated/unknown.
talk about it
Best artists are underrated for much time, but he's times is coming, don't worry about that
@Vinylmere Core id say hes more overlooked than underrated
We need truth... we need a youth.
woah woah... "don't give a fuck bout a clown"... mick predicted the clowns terrorizing the US, rip
"You sip slow because truth is harsh and it burns but it's also addictive.. You want more"
TILL YOU DRINK. MORE. WATER.
A uni pupil making music for the world!

The circle will include the hell that murderers encounter when they die and wake up in the world of suffering and fear pure 100% the hardest and coldest will collapse at the knees those already in the circle those who step into it.
All the negative energy that has accumulated in the form of negative humans will be instantly cast out right now of the circles. In every home of my family love my home my location there will be circles there to ensure that are removed or kept from lingering around my vehicle will have a circle as well that will reject very powerfully all negativity towards me even unwanted eyes tails and ignoramuses as i travel those who transgressed or taken the deed to do so will loose their eyes and ears as well as their tongues this protection and offensive will be in place for 24 hours strong.
I will create a circle that will extend out 4 miles it shall be domed, In this circle are the emotional and psychological effects megiddo the war that the shadow gov has waged against me the energy will flood the entire circle I will be the dot at the center of the circle from the dot the measure of 4 miles will be set in place.. No wicked human being or spirit will be allowed in this circle or to advance towards me in this circle all antichrist types are included. I will create a circle for my entire family my love all negativity will be cast or thrown out of the circle. Those who by chance are in the circle will be rejected terribly and removed.

DRINK.MORE.WATER
Chills, man. CHILLS!
I watched an interview with Chris Travis, Xavier Wulf, Bones, and Eddie Baker. At one point Chris Travis was saying how he started the whole water motif and the interviewer said something about Mick Jenkins and Chris Travis was like "I started all that water shit". Made me laugh because Chris Travis is wack and pretty boring in my opinion, and to compare him to how Mick Jenkins uses the water idea is ridiculous.
Yo guys im an up and coming rapper looking for some exposure! Please check out my newest track and lmk what you think! https://soundcloud.com/its-oz/times-changing
Amazzzing

+grayson english Lee bannon
MICK JENKINS MAN!
You have you're young thugs, who make fire beats, and crazy flow, but the lyrical content is lacking and somewhat detrimental. You have you're Kendrick Lamars, who has lyrical content and fire beats, but arent trying hard enough, You have your Beast Coast types who speak out, have a message, have amazing beats, but are held back by their need for money. Mick, Mick is pure, amazing beats, an amazing message, poetry, its beautiful to listen to, it gives me goosebumps because no one has ever accomplished such perfection in speaking to a generation. God bless the real GOAT.
Young Thug dropped an album and then a new song the next day, thats putting in work. Regardless of what you think of young thug hes an actor doing stupid shit to make money and its funny as fuck. Doesn't mean hes better then KDot by any means human, Im not trolling, Kdot could be featuring on tracks and puttin shit out but hes not, he could drop shit left right n center but hes not. The way we listen to music is changing, we are rapidly going from song to song, artist to artist, i dont think Kdot is meeting his fans needs rn bro.
@Mars McCarrick Quality > Quantity . It's not his fault that people have the attention span of a fly these days. People are still talking about his albums. Young Thug will be forgotten within 10 years.
@Mars McCarrick Drops 2 of the most acclaimed rap albums of the decade, inspires a new generation of competition in hip-hop, draws attention to the disparity and depraved condition on living in the ghettos of america to a mainstream audience, all while preaching a message of self-love in both a poetic and candid fashion
>fell off
Go listen to almost any jazz classic and grow up a bit before offering your opinion on TPAB, or on music in general son
@Mars McCarrick Stan harder bro.
This comment gave me cancer and AIDS
Gem. Well done Mick!
I just sit and vibe to this, wish it was longer, can't wait for Wave[s]
Why isn't this song more popular..
The three idiots that didn't like this song. Go back to young thugs wack ass. Lol
+Greg “Swift One” Smith I fuck with both of them. Don't be a hater
Lol 2 years later those 3 idiots multiplied by 10....
HOLY FUCKING SHIT. Everyone going off bout ps and qs where the love for this track?
P's and Q's=Alchemy imo, both equally fire
+Stephen White ugh "Perception"?
Keenan Ayer
Shipwrecked. Beautiful intro to an amazing tape
Mick Jenkins is the future for Chicago. Chance opened the gate and now the actual spitters are finally getting exposed.
Kanye???! Lupe???!!
Give Common, Twista, Lupe Rhymefest, and Kanye credit for laying the foundation. Much love to young Mick. Keep going in young bro. Peace to Chitown from Htown.
What's going on with Mikkey?
Lupe opened the gate!
I think common opened that gate.. then twista.. then kanye.. then chance.
This man sound like Tyler, the Creator and Joey Bada$$ in one. Am I the only one that sees this??
Fuck Tyler
@MrSerbSensation fuck tyler and joey faking indie. joey has skill but he's a liar. dont believe me? google it. his "boys" exposed him.
@Tree on Welfare Troy Ave? Who mentioned him u fuck....oh and btw I'm talking about how he SOUNDS not his status in the industry. Understand what im saying first before you talk about nonsense bud.
With better flow than both of them
this beat is lit
Sorry about the L today
The message dope too:/
@marentes133 no worries mate just typical Arsenal...shit start to the season before picking up form around christmas and eventually finishing 4th. Maybe 3rd. COYG
so underrated. Better than most the game 💯
+jens elias jaarvik a lot of underground rappers real, they just never get radio play cuz their type of concious music ain't poppin for the youngins
+jens elias jaarvik no love for cole?
@Samuel Bowman he got some good music, but a lot of fillers
You could say that about Kendrick also
YLTCO preach!!!!!!!
73% of the listeners don't know what the fuck is happening.
true lol mick very deep with his music
Drink... more....
That shit got my computer on fire!!!!! Its cool though, the waters were able to handle it

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d-HkbZbmE9M
I looked up Alchemy and that shit is very very deep if your willing to think out the box. He is amazing to incorporate this with rap. He will be a Kendrick or J.Cole
@TheProdigalEnigma So ur saying that those subjects dont need to be talked about ? Fuck on. Like kendrick said "Im not here to give u music that u want, im here to give u music that u need"
@xSMELLmyF33Tx Finally, that one nigga to come along, not understanding the context of a comment. Misconstruing it and looking like a fool in the process. GG sir. GG
No one can be Kendrick or j.cole you fuh nigga
+Cam CANTrun nah are you stupid have our listened to born sinner? section 80? you'd take that opinion back if you were a real fan of rap
Mr. Bloo Guy wym
