07/the carters/nice
when you duck all the subpoenas and misdemeanors. when your success can't be quantified. when you ain't seen a ceiling in your entire life. when you stocked up like the doomsday preppers, gotten over those humps, and have no fear of life. when they patiently waiting for your demise, but it never comes. when B keeps the singing to a minimum, and instead chooses to stunt on you hoes with BARS like she's 1/2 of one of hip-hop's greatest duos. when pharrell comes thru with that beautiful music, giving you a breezy trap hop & R&B joint to bounce, rock, and flex to and you glide over that shit effortlessly, bouncing off each other with ease, like it's nothing and you could do this in your sleep. when life just feels like blessings on top of blessings, etc., making it feel like the best year ever.
and can't nobody see you or stop your shine.
and you luxuriate in your black excellence, proving you're better than the hype, all while giving us life?
Jesus Christ(!), THAT IS NICE!
