Lyrically Perfect Songs
One that comes to mind for me is "I gave you power" by Nas. First few times I listened to this song, I thought it was really tight. Then I noticed a few cool phrases in it. Then I finally just got it. Now I think it's one of the greatest songs ever written and I could listen to it over and over again. It's great to read the lyrics while you're listening to it, too. The way he tells his story with the rhyming scheme is just perfect. It's very hard to understand unless you really think about it because of how he will cut off sentences to make the rhyming scheme work.
What are some other lyrically great songs?
