February lyrics:
It's February, it's much different from the past year
That was the worst time, the opposite of cashmere
And you know when life kicks you all in your ass rear
When you down to your last blunt
While you downing your last beer
Catching your close friends in every lie
Had you wiping your hands clean 'til they were sanitary dry
Then you noticed the snow was standing very high
Because yesterday it fell from the January sky
Now it's February and the world feels a lot colder
You and your girl parted ways so you can not hold her
She said she wanted to get married back in October
Probably why in the month of May is when you got sober
But in February you felt the teardrops slide
Down your face when your faith began to lopside
This around the same time my nigga pops died
Dress shoes, suit, the tie up at the top's tied
Look at all the drama it brung
This time of year when I was young, snowflakes was on my tongue
We played freeze tag or had a snowball fight
'til the curb on the streetlight would grow all bright
Couldn't ride our bicycles, slippery sidewalks
Icicles cold as a deli sandwich with the sliced pickles
That's when advice trickles down from generation
Like counting all your friends on one hand
Or if you don't stand for anything, you'll fall for everything
Because you wasn't smart, it plays a part in why your heart holds a heavy sting
Oh February, February
You took a friend from me who wasn't just some celeb you buried
He inspired us all musically
You came around and changed things, I want it how it used to be Видеоклипы
That beat sounds just like winter. Great track from a great album!
My nigha lukes putting that work in lol. Elzhi so underrated. I gave lead poison a 4/5 😜
+Luke James (Album Reviews) I Know! Wish it were dropped in the winter
That's a great comparison
I’ve been listening to this song for over 5 years now. Hip hop for over 20. This lands among some of the most beautiful rap songs I’ve ever heard.
Second this. #HipHop ✌🏽
Got me through April havent woken up yet😅 feeling this way different now than i did in the past
Probably the best track ever. I cry every time I watch it. Eternal sunshine to my fellow heads.
I lost so much today nothing could explain my words and this song is the reason why I'm still here my friend took his life in front of me and this song calmed me down so much thank you elzhi for this song
Dope work. Shout to 14KT on the production too.
bro this is crazy...Mello knows about Elzhi
of course
Mello Music Group Yall need to get El and Odd on a track together!!
Nice listening to this song for years never new it was 14kt on the beat
I’m currently going through some stressful times . And this song is kinda bitter sweet . It’s hitting me hard 🤦🏾♂️
I feel you man
@@shaolin6150 im in a better place now
I lost my brother back in February 2017. I found this album and track around the same time, really kept me focused on music to take the edge off the situation. Always thankful for this album!
I just finished watching Phife Dawg's memorial service and then I listened to Lead Poison for the first time..I ain't gon' lie I cried bruh. Long Live Dilla RIP Phife. Elzhi we missed ya playa..stay up.
respect
✊
This is absolutely fucking amazing..!!!!!
Thank you Elzhi. Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind is one of my favorite movies and your bars hit the spot with this one.
Elzhi never disappoints. Dope emcee. Dope lyrics. Dope video. Dope nod to Dilla. #hiphop
he taking abut pops he mentions it in a few records however I do see the Dilla reference as well so let me take another deeper listen.
@@DiggsSuperproducer Thanks, Diggs! I'm currently re-listening to a lot of Elzhi's music. You're making me listen with a different ear. Appreciate it!
My dad passed in February. I didn't think this song would mention something like that.
Elzhi, Your words cut deep
this is a movie, excellent job
R.I.P J'DiLLA AND NUJABES, long live the kings. Today is a very important day for hiphop, remember those who gave back and contributed to our lives. These lyrics cut diamonds bro, good job man, J'Dilla would be proud
GOOSEBUMPS, A WORK OF ART. Hope you are good brother, thank you for all the wonderful music throughout the years. 💪
Always play this when I'm feeling introspective
"Couldn't ride our bicycles/slippery sidewalks icicles/cold as a deli sandwich with the sliced pickles/"
Best wordsmith in the game!
+SKiTz The Gemini nah fam. Soulo got that place on lock.
+Shafa Asino never heard of him. I looked him up on RUclips and what I found was terrible so hopefully that's not who you were talking about. Haha
+SKiTz The Gemini Wait... You don't know who Ab-Soul is?
+Shafa Asino OH YEAH! I never heard anyone call him Soulo before. I still don't think he's better than El Zion.
King Los?
Lupe Fiasco?
Locksmith?
Passionate MC?
February 2023 this will forever be a classic. Thank you Elzhi 🙏🏼
Damn this concept is from my favourite movie. Everyone should watch: "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind", then you will truly understand what this song is getting at. Amazing. This is art.
Great movie and i wish i could erase some shit from my brain too ngl
@@TH3USUALSUSPECTthe point is that erasing anything from your mind is not a good idea even if it was possible
This video kinda reminds me of Bloodsport
Rest In Peace J Dilla
"Liked" it before I finished watching it...cuz Elzhi is an unappreciated legend
Best movie ever. Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind. Great reenactment, great song.
If you a fan of the movie Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, you will appreciate this concept on a deeper level. Elzhi is timeless
Man....this jawn helps me reflect when my day seems somberish. Elzhi is a gift to my eardrums audio
This video and song are incredible. Hits so hard on so many levels. Thank you for staying true to the art form. Most underrated period.
Eternal sunshine of the spotless mind
Thanks for expressing relative thoughts Elzhi. it's still February. Keep going bruh!!! The fact that people express relative things.... just thanks. You're one of my favorite MCs, no pressure. Thanks for the music!
Dilla still inspiring others even in today's music . Now That's special
Definition ot DOPENESS!
The syllable king is back. Dope!
This dude amazing but eminem is a better technical rapper imo
But this dude 🔥though
@@Kisukes_kane 🚪 use that door and mever return. God, I get sick of you guys.
@@lyrics2challenged bruh that was 11 months ago
It's been so long since a song made me tear up, this whole album is a work of art. I really miss the days when Dilla was alive.
ELZHI is one of the Illest.......Props from Germany...Herford City!!
Elzhi is a hidden gem. I laugh at myself when I think back and was mad when he became a member of slum village. Back then I was just mad that dilla left the group and elzhi felt like a replacement. I laugh because I realized along time ago that elzhi was just an addition. Hes one of the best lyricists we got here in detroit.
This was my February. In alot of ways. This song helped me through it. Thank you. You ll never know how much this helped me .
One of the most slept on... We see you tho can't wait for more ❤
No one out there like El!!!!!!!!!!!!! One of a kind.
So happy Elzhi is finally dropping the album. Welcome back bro.
Harnoor Singh yeah miss
man this song never gets old, hits the soul!
Slippery Side Walks....Timely
🙏🏾🙏🏾 February
Dude is endlessly deep.
Shit is fucking beautiful, all of it, the video, the beat , the rhymes, shit is crazy, caught this on a cloudy rainy day on the porch, it fit the moment in the illest way possible, respect.
My all time fav artist from Detroit. SlumVDilla
BRAVO BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ELZHI
Elz back at it, god I love my city and our scene.
YaKuZa moon. You from Detroit? Dope
The Preface, Elmatic, and Lead Poison are all top notch albums.
Damn bro, hits different every new february. Thanks Elzhi, captured a hard and special time for me and continues to do so every new year.
I broke the replay button, replayed this song 20 times already. How the hell does this have dislikes? the people who disliked this clearly dont know what month it is Smh You know a song is good when you pause mid way, rewind it, to play it again because you know its gunna end. shout out to 14KT production and Elzhi, J'Dilla would be so proud brother..
This is hip hop in it's purest form
Bro the rhymes, bicycles sliced pickles lmfaoo🔥
we needed Elzhi back
Like a true King.
"... just some celeb you buried"
Real slick with the pen and enunciation right there
DOpe! Salute!
Where did 5 years go??? Timeless song and album
This whole album was 💕🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
favourite song on the entire record
What a beautiful song.....
homie you a breath of fresh air in this hiphop scene mad respect
This song is soo therapeutic and has me deep in thoughts. Thank you brother! Hope you are good.
Elzhi is more like nas than j cole is
of course. I don't really get the j cole- nas comparison
Definetly from the lyrics and he sound like nas.
ELZHI doesnt have anyone to compete with & never had, thats the blessing and the curse) He's like..Fantastic...Fantastic straight up, from A to the Z... I got no words for this its like maan THANK YOU ELZHI
The motherfuck nooo....... This nigga Elzhi is EXACTLY like Royce da 5'9''. Cole is more like Nas cause he got his conscious. If anything, they both are absolutely *NOTHING* like Nas. But this foo Elzhi is still like Royce da 5'9''.......
King Los can definitely give elzhi a run for his money
Dilla in mind. Yall dont even realize. Born in February, passed in February. RIP
"Oh February, February,
You took a friend from me who wasn't just some celeb you buried,
He inspired us all musically,
You came around and changed things,
I want it how it used to be"
@@kash332 you got it.
Some of us do
Ohh don’t worry, Dilla was the first person to cross my mind.
,Elzhi you're your own light stay safe out there brother you have a style that is true hip hop no games. I am relieved my brother.
only raps the truth. happy to see El is back to Killin it again.
Beautiful work of art
Eternal Sunshine of The Spotless Mind, beautifully done.
Word.
thanx to creation , nature , music and artists
I almost became a doubter. Glad I held in there through the long haul.
Eternal Sunshine of the spotless mind
eternal sunshine vibes. dope...
This video is so perfect. It captures the emotion in the song perfectly.
Especially in moments like 1:24 , 2:00 & 2:14
I really can't explain it, but each of those moments just hit me in the feels so hard
no homo bro
Max X still hits me in the feels
That 1:24 one has never ceased to make me tear up. That whole 2 bars is completely relatable.
Great video, I love the lyrics and the beat is perfect. Peace and love.
Had to revisit this for MY FATHER, DILLA & PLUG 2 🕊️🕊️🕊️
Butterflies 🦋 is only way I can describe this masterpiece
LUV 2 C DIS KAT BACK SPITTIN & SPILLIN!!!
This is one of the more passionate songs Elzhi has made and one of the better Hip-Hop eulogies, on the same level as Puff Daddy's "Missing You" and Sadistik's "Micheal." This track, "February," was of course dedicated to J Dilla and I know there's been an abundance of tributes to J Dillla (all of which suck terribly similar to all the Nujabes tributes). But, finally, a track that does justice for J. Dilla and from who else, but his teammate in Slum Village...Elzhi! And I never been much of a fan of producer, 14KT, but this instrumental really does help to capture the emotional melancholy of the month that Dilla died, February.
damnn, i got goose bumps watching this. cant wait for the album
Elzhi = Legend
yes...best hip hop since a long time...
Thank you EL
greatness
This beat tough with the horns backdrops
Masterpiece.
NUFF RESPECT!!
Whos listening in 2020? The good stuff always has a low view count. Great job capturing the feeling of winters in Detroit.
Powerful.
Elzhi sent me here🔥🔥🔥🔥
Love this..the beat..the rhymes and the visual. .incredible work EL .
Marvelous!
it's february again. happy birthday james yancey
Elsie never ceases to amaze me. Wish he would put out more material
Just another Detroit artist the world will sleep on. True artist like elzhi stay hidden from mainstream for a reason. Think about it.
I felt that.....

Best 2k16 song & album. Thanks !
Bam!
