Feel it in the Air

Not really a fan of Beanie Sigel but when I heard this track a few months ago I was stopped in my tracks. The chorus is beautiful and Beanie comes deep with raw emotion in his verses. I've been bumping it on loop ever since. Seems to be one of those songs that people missed out on judging by the amount of views on youtube.

Not entirely sure on the story behind the track but its definetly worth a listen. And yes i know its old...



I've added the lyrics in the comments.

(Talkin)
My Spider senses is tinglin
Feel somethin, got my radars up

Somethin goin on, i feel funny cant tell me nuttin different
my nose twitchin
intuition settin in like steve vision
i still close my eyes, i still see visions
still hear that voice in tha back of my mind
so what i do? i still take heed, i still listen
i still paint that perfect picture,
i still shine bright like a prism
my words still skippin - thru air
i know you cant, dont, wont get it
you n*ggas chose to ride that ship, sunk wit it
im still afloat, i aint tha captain of tha yacht but im on the boat
i aint actin what im not
knowin that i dont, you n*ggas actin like you will but i know you wont, you wont man
i read between tha lines of ya eyes and ya brows
ya handshake aint matchin ya smile
ill holla, you n*ggas foul

i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air
i can hear it in your voice
i can feel it in tha air

i sit alone in my 4 cornered room starin at hammers
ready to go banannas
2 vests on me, 2 techs, extra clips on me
i know my mind aint playin tricks on me
i aint skitz hommie
aint no body drop a nick on me
its like they tryin ta plot a scent on me
i hear this voice in tha back of my mind like mack tighten up ya circle
before they hurt you
read they body language
85% communication non-verbal, 85% swear they know you
10% you know they story, man tha other 5..time to show you, just know you
then pull they strings, you tha puppet master
fuck them other bastards
man watch who you puffin after
play ya cards, go against all odds
shoot for tha moon if you miss, you still amongst those stars

i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air (i aint scared n*gga i aint goin no where)
i can hear it in your voice (can you feel me?)
i can feel it in tha air (can you feel me?)

can you feel it, can you feel the grim reaper floatin?
foul preacha quotin, scriptures from revalation
talk shit and got tha devil waitin
body get stiff, so levitatin
why do i speak blasphemy?
knowin one day that he'll ask for me
ask for my sins
no one to feel his wrath for me
i go thru it, so you wouldnt do it...after me
as for me
im still circlin tha block before im parkin
not bitchin, im just still cautious
same black parka, same uzzi, extra clips, still clappin wit that same larkin
damn, i feel it in the air, you not sincere
n*gga it aint an us, or we, or ima thing
its a good/bad karma thing
this the code man a honor thing
i swear i feel somethin honestly

i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air
i can feel it in tha air
i can hear it in your voice
i can feel it in tha air

This definitely made its rounds on Base and Kiss a few years back.

But its a beautiful track. Still on my itunes to this day. The vocalist did his verses jutice, complemented him nicely.
