[Intro] (looped “Chocolate Pot” sample — soft horns + piano, filtered) [vintage vinyl crackle] “...yeah… late night…” [Verse 1] Chop the sample, let it breathe in the night glow Old soul rhythm from a reel-to-reel psycho Dust on the record but the vibe still gold Turn a ‘70s groove into a story untold Crate dig dreams in a basement light Every loop feel like it came with a life Kick-snare talk like a back-alley fight But the jazz keep it smooth, keep the balance right I ain’t rushin’, let the swing just ride Bassline walk like it got its own pride Every note got ghosts from another time Now I flip they soul into another rhyme 🎤 [Hook] Chocolate pot simmer, let it drip real slow From the past to the present, let the whole thing flow Got that vinyl soul in the digital glow Turn a sample to a story only real ones know Chocolate pot simmer, late night vibe Jazz in my veins, got the rhythm alive From a crate to a stage, now the sound gon’ thrive Old school heart but the future inside 🎤 [Verse 2] Loop got swing like a cigarette burn Every crack in the wax got a lesson to learn I don’t just sample, I restore what’s lost Pay respect every time that I’m countin’ the cost Snare hit sharp like a thought too deep Hi-hat ticking like I lost some sleep But the horns still cry, yeah the sample still weep Turn pain into rhythm every bar I keep No autotune, just a mic and a dream Let the jazz talk back when I write sixteen Every bar like a frame in a film unseen Black-and-white soul with a gold-tinted sheen 🎤 [Hook] Chocolate pot simmer, let it drip real slow From the past to the present, let the whole thing flow Got that vinyl soul in the digital glow Turn a sample to a story only real ones know 🎧 [Outro] (sample isolated — piano + horns fade out) “...keep it spinning…” [vinyl crackle fades]
