    The Edge Of Reality - Nah & XM

    Nahlidge
    XM

    What`s life? But a dream that`s waitin` to come true
    That breaks in to come thru & start takin` it from you
    We try shapin` to un-do whatever`s not fittin` the mold
    In with the new, hopin` not to get a whiff of the old
    Pictures have told a greater story, the scene is perfect
    To the point I wish I could bring these dreams to surface
    Stitch seams, on purpose they tried to shatter the thread
    Reality`s now an obstacle standin` in the back of my head
    Passion is dead, death gives birth to the greed and wants
    Runnin` past what I need, but my needs are what haunt
    Grantin` me nightmares, become clear & turn into day dreams
    Started on rocky roads, but eventually started to pave these
    Smooth run courses, forcin` me to try to erase
    Memories of the woman I`m stuck with while tryna amaze
    The one I want, but is she a woman or metaphor?
    Either way, it still seems like I met her before
    So I`m jealous, tryna piece together the shards I`m left with
    Makin` shapes outta nuthin`, moldin` them to perfection
    Question, what comes from a dream? But what we miss in life
    Until I awake, then they become the things I miss at night

    In the midst of this cold sweat seems this dream has repeated
    My imagination will wander I wonder where I should keep it
    For every moment my eyes close I tend to see her reflection
    Since my mind is perfection building I'm in need of an exit
    Hence my plea of aggression guess'n I hope it's denial
    But with these steps that I take leaves prints to open a smile
    These many notions are foul almost an obvious trend
    Aim'n for you and a kin like Obi's out for revenge
    Feels like my brain is collasp'n because this fatal attraction
    So if I play with the passion it'll probably save me the rations
    Cuz my relation's a hasbeen maybe my brain is just crash'n
    In my heart she's half of me which makes a dangerous fraction
    But this lady from back when with the lastest of fashion
    Stays on the tip of my mind while my dangles are gasp'n
    Oh how I favor reactions she'll probably see what saying..
    ..but never hear what I say if I keep thinking in captions
    Drove my will to go flat out on a whim and retire
    Hell we've been friends for years still a secret admire
    So when im speak'n required silence she'll notice the haste
    I'm at the brink of my sanity dreamin holds it in place

    Some good shit man, I was really feelin this. Multis were on point, rhyming was up there. I was definitely feelin the content in general on this man... I liked your verse the best.

    ^^ my favorite lines right here man

    overall, good shit. Flow seemed a bit off in some parts, maybe not tho. Either way it was raw, i liked it. Leave me some feed on A State of Dismay, I'd appreciate it.

    This, unlike the piece I just read.. it Hall of Fame. Then again, should we really be surprised that such a dope piece from two AI members deserves the nomination? Nah opened this shit flawlessly dude, I love how you have this lazy wording but it still sounds so fucking dope. The flow is just insane, and your message and content strike me man. Malice, no sign of rust.. came in here and played his weight well. Loved this piece, keep it up guys.. hit me for a collab sometime soon.

    guys this was dope. not bad. some nice lines, I liked the Obi line, that was pretty dope. you both did soundly, and I can't complain about the read. pretty fresh, concept was aiight but the flow I think made this read for me because you both had such a similar style.. blended almost perfectly imo... nice read my dudes...

    your verses definitely worked very well together, and I enjoyed the read. nice vocab, great multis/flow. easy to look at, well formed. I especially liked:

    So I`m jealous, tryna piece together the shards I`m left with
    Makin` shapes outta nuthin`, moldin` them to perfection

    nice work.

    I think nah. had a better flow. and he started off the piece well.. had alot of solid content kinda drew me in. X followed up nicely, and had a pretty nice verse aswell. overrall nice drop

    Grantin` me nightmares, become clear & turn into day dreams
    Started on rocky roads, but eventually started to pave these
    Smooth run courses, forcin` me to try to erase
    Memories of the woman I`m stuck with while tryna amaze
    The one I want, but is she a woman or metaphor?
    Either way, it still seems like I met her before

    ^I liked that part alot. It was on point.

    And I agree with cry, X's obi line was pretty nice to.

    nigga this shit is hot. Nah, your verses are always perfect to me cuz we have basically the same style of writing topicals. That peices of nothing/molding into perfection line was pure fire nigga. But i won't sit here and tell you what lines were hot cuz i like the entire verse honestly. XM, you got that audio/topical style as opposed to me and Nah's Topical/audio style. Which is dope too. You verse was fire too. The obi line was dope. took me a second cuz i was just reading lol but you really turned it up from fatal attraction till the end of that rhyming word. shit was hot fellaz.

    Definately HOF.

    Re: The Edge Of Reality - Nah & XM

    no complaints about this...i enjoyed reading it...lines that struck a chord to me are as follows:

    What`s life? But a dream that`s waitin` to come true
    That breaks in to come thru & start takin` it from you

    Question, what comes from a dream? But what we miss in life
    Until I awake, then they become the things I miss at night

    For every moment my eyes close I tend to see her reflection
    Since my mind is perfection building I'm in need of an exit

    Oh how I favor reactions she'll probably see what saying..
    ..but never hear what I say if I keep thinking in captions

    dunno what is was, but they caught my attention the most. can't really give elevation tips as you's are above me and i'll happily admit it.

    all i can say is, good read...i enjoyed it, keep it up.

    keep posting shit up
