transcript:
A: and now, ladies and gentlemen,
B: lil figurative.
C: how did you know?
you did, didn’t you.
D: yes, i knew.
i knew there’d be a fire.
and i knew it would happen this afternoon, at 2 o’ clock.
but what i didn’t know…
i didn’t know that i would cause it.
i shouldn’t have come here…
i know that now.
it won’t work.
i know that too.
it can’t work, because i know too many things.
i know…
i know about too many tomorrows.
C: tomorrows?
D: you’re history, abby.
you, and this town, and the people in it…
everything about it, you’re history.
and i can’t change you.
i can’t even touch you.
C: paul, why not?
D: because the past isn’t violent…
the past is sacred.
it belongs to those of you who live in it.
it’s not for interlopers.
for people who are just passing by, look in…
i wish they were a part of it.
C: where are you going?
D: i’m going back.
back to where i came from, back where i belong.
i’ve overstayed my welcome.
even so, i found more than i expected.

Just a beautiful jazzy rap album with buttery smooth flows versed with huge talent. It's not only lovely to the ears, but the lyrics are profound and empowering about the struggles that she faces. zhangtastic
