Yeah, niggas don't know about Fatback With the different color records they had back in the days You know what I mean, the belt-driven turntables With Technics joints (with the slipmats!) Put nickels on the needles so the motherfucking record won't jump The needle won't skip and shit Getting juice from the fucking light poles Shout out to the Bronx, nigga! [Verse 1: Ghostface] Ay yo, this shit go way back like a Uni marker, kid Bombing the D train and hit the Bronx up Krylon bandits attack; Planet Rock, Bambaataa Peace to Pylon discovering rap And the DJ that made the first scratch Paved the way for Flex, Mister Cee, 'nuff of them cats See, this rap shit came at a time that was accurate Twenty-something years later, I mastered it Seen light poles get used for power I was a little nigga Couldn't stay out late - I was sour So I sat by the window, heard the DJ cut Impeach the Pres, Apache, and just begun Otis Redding - slam! The music stopped Guess the system blew out one of his amps It'd take a little while, then it come back on Somebody stepped on the wire and shit, that's all Now everybody's back in the groove, echo chamber "Check one two, one two" - that's my favorite Strobe lights is live, Pink Champale Little pink joints being lit up on the side Couple niggas had two fives Other than that, cleared a circle in the park and shoot 5 Girls wore they Lees and jellies Jordache and Lees, TF Lords fit the fellys Sams and Kangol buckets, BVD's Go to Sergio's like, fuck it Seen the stamp on that Crazy Eddie Niggas coming back from the Funhouse dusted Throwing bubbles on the wall [Hook: Ghostface] We must remind you Where this rap come from Yes my brother, my sister It's our duty, we must remind you Hip hop was set out in the park We used to do it out in the dark [Verse 2: Black Thought] Yo, it all started at the After Midnight Philly, but walk with me Mad niggas coming down from New York City Prolly hit the skating rink USA Banging Schoolly, "Gangster Boogie" and "PSK" I remember shells, Gazelles, top tens, and lottos Mega design, reefer smoke, Coqui nine bottles Entire wore velours, call the boys with the Lucci wore 84's from Atlantic City Coogi store Linoleum break dancing, Rust-Oleum cans I put the writing on the wall signed, "Truly yours" Philly smashed '87 Music Seminar Out on the battlefield like Pat Benatar Hit the borough with Krown Rulers out of Camden People Patty Duke-ing in the party, all cramped in Around the time Flav started cold lamping "Rebel Without a Pause" was the street anthem Old Memorex cassette, tape collections Bright spotlights on all the fights at the Spectrum When the Fresh Fest come, leather bombers and sheepskins Brothers would bust they guns to get one MC Breeze, Disco C, Jazzy Jeff Cash Money and Miz and Lady B Everybody banging "Sucker MC's" in '83 I was South Philly like St. Charles and Crazy D Them wild North Side Puerto Ricans would snuff you Twenty deep in a Ford Escort, pumping the Tuff Crew I used to follow my cousin, he was a buck too "Y'all don't like how I'm living, well, fuck you!" I been a G since a little kid Sticking my head up into somebody's dollar party, getting into shit And late nights, shoulda been in bed Instead, I was running 'round with them downtown lemonheads A little man, hanging where them grown women is Under thirteen, seeing real strong images And that's the reason for my real rap penmanship That's where I started it, and that's where I'm a finish it [Hook] |

love the lie and lie the love
Hangin' on, with a push and shove Possession is the motivation that is hangin' up the God-damn nation Looks like we always end up in a rut Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Slaughterhouse is killin' hogs Twisted children killin' frogs Poor dumb rednecks rollin' logs Tired old ladies kissin' dogs Hate the human, love that stinking mutt (I can't use it) Try to make it real - compared to what? The president, he's got his war Folks don't know just what it's for No one gives us rhyme or reason Have one doubt, they call it treason We're chicken-feathers, all without one gut Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Church on Sunday, sleep and nod Tryin' to duck the wrath of God Preacher's fillin' us with fright Tryin' to tell us what he thinks is right He really got to be some kind of nut Tryin' to make it real - compared to what? Where's that bee and where's that honey? Where's my God and where's my money Unreal values, crass distortion Unwed mothers need abortion Kind of brings to mind ol' young King Tut (He did it now) Tried to make it real - compared to what? |

They wait to plead their case, unknown cast aside.
I love to see their face, can we spare the light? Are we afraid to see the prisoners of history? These beautiful minds, trapped inside. Bring them back to life. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. So dark, but I see sparks, if we don't snuff them out. We gotta light them flame, let them speak their name. Let them reach up to the clouds. Can't eat if we don't feed them. Can't read if we don't teach them. There's no line if we just hide them. Don't just let 'em die. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Oh stars flicker in the distance, lonely out in space. They sing out when we're not listening, because we don't see their face. We can let them die, we can make them high. Hold the little miracles that live inside. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em live. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em read on. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em grow. Let 'em shine on. Come on, let them love. Come on, let them love. Come on, let them love. Yeah. Yeah (let them love) Hold them close, let them know they'll get through the night Ordinary people could be a hero, don't blow out the light. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Let 'em shine. Let 'em shine on. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Let them shine on. These lyrics are not available for printing. |

[Into] Dear God, I'm trying hard to reach you Dear God, I see your face in all I do Sometimes, it's so hard to believe it... But God, I know you have your reasons (Uh huh) [Verse 1] They said he's busy hold the line please Call me crazy, I thought maybe he could mind read Who does the blind lead? Show me a sign please If everything is made in China, are we Chinese? And why do haters separate us like we siamese? Technology turning the planet into zombies Everybody all in everybody's dirty laundry Acid rain, earthquakes, hurricane, tsunamis Terrorist, crime sprees, assaults, and robberies Cops yellin' stop, freeze Shoot him before he try to leave Air quality so foul, I gotta try to breath Endangered species And we runnin' out of trees If I could hold the world in the palm of these Hands, I would probably do away with these anomalies Everybody checkin' for the new award nominee Wars and atrocities Look at all the poverty Ignoring the prophecies More beef than broccoli Corporate monopoly Weak world economy Stock market topplin' Mad marijuana oxycotton and klonopin Everybody out of it? [Hook] Well I've been thinkin' about And I've been breakin' it down Without an answer I know I'm thinking out loud But if you're lost and around Why do we suffer? Why do we suffer? (Uh huh) [Verse 2] Yeah... It's still me, one of your biggest fans I get off work Right back to work again I probably need to go ahead and have my head exam Look at how they got me on the Def Jam payment plan Well, I'm in the world of entertainment and Trying to keep a singing man sane for the paying fans If I don't make it through the night, slight change of plans Harp strings, angel wings, and praying hands Lord, forgive me for my shortcomings For going on tour and ignoring the court summons All I'm trying to do is live life to the fullest They sent my daddy to you in a barrage of bullets Why is the world ugly when you made it in your image? And why is livin' life such a fight to the finish? For this high percentage When the sky's the limit A second is a minute, every hour's infinite [Outro] Dear God, I'm trying hard to reach you Dear God, I see your face in all I do Sometimes, it's so hard to believe it.

I keep it doin' it again Oh, I'm doin' it again Yes, I'm doin' it again I said it would end Uh, remix, rising up out of the flames like a Phoenix Straining to carry the weight of my brain like a genius Knowing I'm sowing seeds; let's see whose thumb is the greenest If I said it, I mean it; I did it because I need it Eat, sleep it, or bleed it, write it down and then read it Asphalt to the cement, your trash talk delete it I blast off then lay 'em out like a Tempur-Pedic It's Black Thought; for certain I'm a win eventually This unsung, underrated, under-appreciated The one them underachievers had underestimated Finally graduated, I'm one of the most hated Something that's so sacred; nobody gon' take it Face it, I keep doin' it well Doin' it sans assistance is do it yourself Doin' it below the radar, we doin' it stealth Doin' it again for Illadelph; yo, who else? We gon' do it again [Chorus] Yeah, hey yo, I'm on a job; see my eyes focused where the prize be Even though they tried to rob me and sabotage the spot Just like 'Pac when they got him in the lobby Try to tax, you'll find me like Ronald Isley I's a changed man--ain't no if, ands, or probablies Niggas used to know me--they don't even recognize me Yup, the P-5-D is who the repertoire be Doin' it again just like Poitier and Cosby I'm like Martin Luther King, you like Rodney The difference is I give it everything inside me Dear diary, the fans still swear by me Even though I'm Late Night now like, "Here's Johnny" Swimming with them Great Whites now--that's where to find me Funny how it break right down, but never mind me Forever grimy, I guess it's just Philly shining Rock roller, bi-polar like Phyllis Hyman [Chorus] |

Listen Hey, who's worryin' 'bout you, babe When you whylin' out, runnin' 'round in these streets? Out on the streets where I grew up (how I got over) First thing they teach us is not to give a fuck (how I got over) That type of thinking can't get you nowhere (somebody, somewhere) Someone has to care [Chorus: x3] |

And the radio daze kept us in the dark And the satellite age brings us to the light Some feeling the pitch, some feeling the bite They ain't ready to talk, they're ready to fight Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) [Blu] Yo, so what you searching for? From birth Born hurting and yearning for certain somethings Lurking and murk them, got them turning this Bed into a coffin, burning over passions in this passion Or more or less over what the past done passed us Cause see, the past tense, it never really passes Phases that trap us and cage us like classes Fogging my glasses, lost in a mass mess Task-less dilemma to match somebody's status And I'm average as fuck, no car cats gassing me up Passing bucks like a casual blunt Granted, hustling habits on the stumble, the mansion While bums pass, asking for a buck for some bagged bricks Bad shit going down on the daily While bad chicks pass in a Mercedez, damn They see he's the bastard for chasing them Maybe, it's the patterns that make me that made me crazy [Dice Raw] And the radio daze kept us in the dark And the satellite age brings us to the light Some feeling the pitch, some feeling the bite They ain't ready to talk, they're ready to fight Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) [P.O.R.N.] Life is fiction, competition and contradiction Petty perceptions, window dressing for misdirection Love is a lotto, I know I know you know what I know Hope is so hollow, that's why winos follow the bottle And people pressure, make death a hidden treasure A girly pleasure, lonely language inside a letter It's now or never, move it, move it, love it or lose it 'Fore it's recruited, then included inside the stupid It's things of nature, paid a player and say your prayers Naysayers, the haters, the major players, the beggars You 'bout it, 'bout it, don't allow it to pow without it Then those who doubt it, do or die to death are cowards The world is yours, and the world we can't afford So ignore the law; start a fire, then start a war If you're sick and tired of your access denied Free will died long before Glydes and iPod [Dice Raw] And the radio daze kept us in the dark And the satellite age brings us to the light Some feeling the pitch, some feeling the bite They ain't ready to talk, they're ready to fight Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) Never leave you alone (Never, never leave you alone Never, never leave you alone) [Black Thought] Yo, it's too much strain, phenomenal gain I'm going through things; headaches, abdominal pain Try'na numb it with that kettle like I'm from the Ukraine Check the blue flame, lighter running out of butane What's up with my destructive urge that's unproductive Choices I'm stuck with, now starting to fuck with Contaminating family and close friends Telling me to stop burning the candle at both ends Ain't like I'm on a coke binge, hanging in dope dens Or life is just a pool of Patron I'm soaked in The darker the covenant-slash-trainwreck for you to rubberneck You ain't felt the true pain yet so you be loving that Hit me up at black.gov like the government Banana Republican, alien intelligence Kill switch, real pissed, thinking of some ill shit The stone the builder refused, he need to build with Got immunized for both flus, I'm still sick Via satellite, radio, the realness [Dice Raw] And the radio daze kept us in the dark And the satellite age brings us to the light Some feeling the pitch, some feeling the bite They ain't ready to talk, they're ready to fight And the radio daze And the radio daze And the radio daze |

from The Roots - Dear God 2.0 [single] (2010)
[Into]
Dear God, I'm trying hard to reach you Dear God, I see your face in all I do Sometimes, it's so hard to believe it... But God, I know you have your reasons (Uh huh) [Verse 1] They said he's busy hold the line please Call me crazy, I thought maybe he could mind read Who does the blind lead? Show me a sign please If everything is made in China, are we Chinese? And why do haters separate us like we siamese? Technology turning the planet into zombies Everybody all in everybody's dirty laundry Acid rain, earthquakes, hurricane, tsunamis Terrorist, crime sprees, assaults, and robberies Cops yellin' stop, freeze Shoot him before he try to leave Air quality so foul, I gotta try to breath Endangered species And we runnin' out of trees If I could hold the world in the palm of these Hands, I would probably do away with these anomalies Everybody checkin' for the new award nominee Wars and atrocities Look at all the poverty Ignoring the prophecies More beef than broccoli Corporate monopoly Weak world economy Stock market topplin' Mad marijuana oxycotton and klonopin Everybody out of it? [Hook] Well I've been thinkin' about And I've been breakin' it down Without an answer I know I'm thinking out loud But if you're lost and around Why do we suffer? Why do we suffer? (Uh huh) [Verse 2] Yeah... It's still me, one of your biggest fans I get off work Right back to work again I probably need to go ahead and have my head exam Look at how they got me on the Def Jam payment plan Well, I'm in the world of entertainment and Trying to keep a singing man sane for the paying fans If I don't make it through the night, slight change of plans Harp strings, angel wings, and praying hands Lord, forgive me for my shortcomings For going on tour and ignoring the court summons All I'm trying to do is live life to the fullest They sent my daddy to you in a barrage of bullets Why is the world ugly when you made it in your image? And why is livin' life such a fight to the finish? For this high percentage When the sky's the limit A second is a minute, every hour's infinite [Outro] Dear God, I'm trying hard to reach you Dear God, I see your face in all I do Sometimes, it's so hard to believe it. |

[Verse 1: Black Thought] Yo, in the land of the unseen hand that hold trouble Theorize your game - it's difficult to roll a double The struggle ain't right up in your face, it's more subtle But it's still comin' across like the bridge & tunnel vision I try to school these bucks, but they don't wanna listen That's the reason the system makin' it's paper from the prison And that's the reason we livin' where they don't wanna visit Where the dope slang & keep swayin' like Sonny Liston The money missin' & it's mouths to feed Get the brain kickin' thinkin' of a thousand things Remember back in the days, when the kitchen had eggs And pancakes, thickenin', greens and Kool Aid When the ‘fridgerator naked then the cupboard is bare People got to strip naked, stick ‘em up in the air Was it lies when they told you wasn't nothin' to fear? Somethin' Don't Feel Right out here. You know what I'm sayin'? Check it out.

[Verse 2: Black Thought] Look, my eyes open ‘cause I'm really a watchman And when I'm writin' my thoughts out, really I'm boxin' My main adversary in this silly concoction Freeze your face like bosilium toxin' If you ain't tryin' to get popped, then give me a option Helicopters choppin' from Philly to Compton The Jones' the Richardsons, the Smith's & the Johnson's If you ain't sayin' nothin' you the system's accomplice It should play with your conscience, do away with the nonsense I'm overseein' anything within' my circumference This ain't a press junket, I ain't seekin' responses I stand where the people got the heat in they pocket You mezmerized by the calm nonchalant-ness I spit a dark web, on some John Hitchcock shit If you ain't speakin' your life, your rhyme's adopted If it Don't Feel Right, then stop it. You know what I'm sayin'? It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I don't feel it no more Things don't feel right over here Lately I ain't been seein' clear It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more Seems to me now a days things have changed I don't know if I feel the same. [Verse 3: Black Thought] Yo' children workin' weapon producin' Natural disaster got the planet in a panic yo We all gots to make that livin' Sex, drugs, murder, politics & religion Forms of hustlin' watch who you put all your trust in Worldwide, we coincide with who sufferin' Who never had shit & ain't got nothin' But most strugglin' & make you wanna run up in the muh' fuckin' Hot zone for a piece of the cake back I can't work for it, I can certainly take that I'm fired up, thinkin' about the payback, except You fuck around & be a enemy of the state, black Ill, but that'd be too real for TV It's crazy when you too real to be free If you don't got no paper then steal this CD Listen man, I'll let you know how it feel to be me, it Don't Feel. It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I don't feel it no more Things don't feel right over here Lately I ain't been seein' clear It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more It Don't Feel Right, it Don't Feel Right It Don't Feel, it Don't Feel, I can't feel it no more Seems to me now a days things have changed I don't know if I feel the same. |

[Black Thought]
Yeah, sitting in the staircase, holding back tears 그래, 계단에 앉아, 눈물을 삼키네 Looking over mad years worth of photographs 사진을 찍어도 될만한 정신없는 몇 년을 돌아봐 Pictures of some places I ain't never going back 절대 돌아갈 수 없는 곳들의 사진 Some people I used to love, why I ain't show them that? 내가 사랑하던 사람들, 왜 그런 맘을 내비추지 않았을까? The skies was overcast, when I was sober last 겨우 제정신을 차렸을 때, 하늘이 펼쳐져있더군 My head is spinning, couldn't tell you if it's slow or fast 머리가 빙빙 돌아, 그 속도가 느렸는지 빨랐는지는 잘 모르겠지만 It's starting to get too clear, I got to go and grass 이제 다 확실해지고 있어, 난 이제 풀밭으로 가야해(?) To y'all it's a shame but life is what we know it as 너네들에겐 부끄러운 일이지만, 삶이란 우리에게 Waiting, navigating the plot, without plans 기다림, 계획없이 계획을 탐색하는 것 In the cards, it's hard to read as a clock with no hands 그 카드는, 마치 바늘 없는 시계처럼 읽기가 힘들지 How your man's goin' get up and stop with no yams 어떻게 니 친구는 일어나서 아무것도 없이 멈춘대 All it take is one break, it could pop the program 필요한 건 휴식 한 번, 프로그램을 뒤집어놓을 수도 있지 Whether sinning or not, my back bending like I'm sendin' salaat 죄를 짓든 아니든, 난 마치 이슬람 교도가 인사하듯 등을 굽혀 I feel some brothers is beginning to plot 몇몇 형제들이 음모를 꾸미는군 It might have been a close friend I forgot 어쩌면 내가 잊어버린 친한 친구가 Who started up and ain't remember to stop 시작을 한 후 멈추는 걸 기억 못하는 건지도 I bet these niggaz going remember the shop 이 놈들은 그래도 쇼핑몰에 가는 건 기억할걸 [Hook] People think that I'm crazy, just cause I wanna be alone 사람들은 내가 미쳤다고 생각해, 혼자 있고 싶은 것 뿐인데 You can't depend on friends to help you in a squeeze 힘든 상황을 벗어날 땐 친구들만 믿을 순 없잖아 We all deal with shit on our own 우린 모두 홀로 문제에 맞서 And sometimes the beef can grow, get out of hand 가끔 그 문제들은 너무 커져서, 손쓸 수 없게 될수도 있지 Yeah, you know it gets full blown 그래, 완전히 폭발해버리잖아 I never said that you mean the world to me 니가 내게 세상과 같은 의미라고는 말 안 했어 Maybe it's best that you never know 그냥 모르는게 나을지도 모르겠군 Yo, I'm like Malcom out the window with the weapon out Yo, 나는 마치 무기를 들고 창문 밖을 내다보는 Malcom과 같아 Searching for somehow to find a minute or the second now 1분 아니 1초라도 여유를 가지려고 노력하지 Precious time is money that I ain't got to mess about 소중한 시간은, 내가 멋대로 써버리지 않을 돈 Need it from the horse's mouth or from my eye with less account 말의 입이나 내 눈에서라도, 필요해 이유는 없어(?) Lessons with my back to the wall, scoping my session out 벽에 등을 기대고 배우는 레슨, 주변을 탐사하면서 Stay a little edgy at times when I ain't stressing bout 스트레스가 없을 땐 더 날카로운 상태로 Haters don't know shit about me, they the ones that talk shit 날 미워하는 놈들은 아무것도 몰라, 헛소리만 늘어놓지 Those that love me send it out, so I ain't got to force quit 날 사랑하는 이들은 겉으로 표현해, 그래서 난 포기 안할 수 있지 Cause I'm doing better now, don't mean I never lost shit 이젠 더 잘하고 있잖아, 물론 이전에라고 패배한 건 아니지만 말야 I was married to a state of mind and I divorced it, man 이런 마음의 상태와 결혼했다가 이혼했지 I'm from where brothers moving product from the porches 내 고향에선 형제들이 베란다에서 만든 물건을 팔아 People locking their doors, clutching to their crosses 사람들은 문을 잠그고, 십자가 목걸이를 꽉 쥐어 The block hot by the law, there ain't too many choices 공권력에 의해 달아오른 거리, 그다지 선택은 많지 않지 So what I do is for y'all, there ain't too many voices left 그러니 내가 너희를 위해 하는 것엔, 목소리가 많이 남아있지 않아 I watch my back, and watch my step 난 등뒤와, 내 발걸음을 조심해 And I might forgive, but I will not forget come on 용서할 줄은 알지만, 잊지는 않을거야, 이리 와 [Hook] Yo, living in turbulent times The blind leading the blind Yo, 혼란의 시대, 장님이 장님을 이끄네 Some call it evolution, some say intelligent design 몇몇은 진화라고 일컫고, 몇몇은 지능적인 디자인이라 말해 You say you want a revolution, you out of your mizind 혁명을 원한다고? 미친게 틀림없군 Your sons' destitute, and their pops all in the prison 니 아들들은 가난하고, 그들의 아버지는 감옥에 있는데 My man's back in the jam, he like the back of my hand 내 친구는 음악으로 돌아왔어, 마치 내 손등과 같은 존재 He just attracted to scam, he right back in the can 잠시 더러운 것에 매혹되었지만, 바로 귀환한거야 I never sleepwalking, you dig You get your shuteye 난 절대 몽유병이 없어, 알겠어? 니 눈은 감겨있네 *움직일 때는 항상 깨어있다는 말이죠-_- I'm on the first thing in, I'm leaving on the red-eye 첫 순서로 들어와, 눈이 빨개져선 돌아가 My brother back in rehab, just had another relapse 내 형제는 다시 재활 센터에, 방금 재발했거든 But fin himself, it's been like he's been fighting an inner Jihad 하지만 곧 끝날거야, 마치 몸 속에서 성전을 치르는 것 같지 Telling me ain't nobody true when they pretend to be that 내겐 누구나 가장할 뿐 진실하지는 않다고 말하네 So closer than friends, that's where I keep my enemy at 내 적들은 항상 내 친구보다 가까이에 있지 To many parties concerned, it's time to live it and learn 관련된 파티들에게, 이젠 분위기를 띄우고 배울 시간 Until we're able to grow, forever bridges we burn 우리가 성장할 때까지, 영원히 다리를 태운다 My thoughts free as a bird, that's just about to emerge 내 생각은 새처럼 자유로워, 이제 곧 한 마리 더 날아갈거야 And every action is heard, it speaks louder than words, yo 또 모든 행동이 네 귀에 들리지, 내 말보다 더 크게 말하니까 말야 *Action speaks louder than words(행동이 말보다 중요하다. 직역하면 '행동이 단어보다 크게 말한다')라는 속담을 인용한 구절입니다.

CHORUS:
Comin to break you off I'm comin to break you off 1st verse Bad misses throwing raspberry kisses on me You looking for direction girl I feel your vision on me Just don't let him see you sweatin we ain't 'sposed to be involved Knowin when we get it off girl I mean it all Keepin ya pheenin til you're taken and tossed And when I'm breakin it off there's no denying the fact it's strong Cuz you got a man who's probably playin his part You probably breakin his heart He's trying to figure the reason you gone Is it cuz he's superficial? Or is he too submissive? Or did I come along and hit you with the futuristic? Or is it cuz you really couldn't see a future with him All he bout is paper never took the time to choose or listen You wanna get gripped up, flipped and thrown And get strictly shown The way to get in the zone. Of course, Dealing with this you won't be taking a loss You need to leave him alone and roll With the one who's breaking you off Chorus 2nd verse Brother down the hall The one you bound to call Workaholics are really I'm rarely around at all What we started got serious reprecautions in court We had a chance to turn back, but look now it's what Late nights twistin something Listenin to Neicey sing She got the beef for you telling me you deeply Appreciate the company, time we spend I feel the same, it's a shame you ain't my girlfriend Cuz listen, you need a brotha with the physical fix Who come through in the mix For you with no head tricks or fraud You need a new position and who can get you open Like eucalyptus and have ready to go for yours Come on and wo |

I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Black Thought) You're physically in this, but how can we tell If we was meant to be in bliss if you're not mentally as well This energy you're sending me is tricky as hell Usually it's like a 50/50 we can take an L Before we start things At this point being apart brings The feeling of somebody plucking at your heart-strings I know it probably shouldn't feel like this But any other woman I see is in your likeness It's from your cheekbones... To your lips... To your curves... To your deep moans... To that walk... To your words... Your love feelin' like a breakdown on the verve First we on good terms, then you're on my last nerve Got my back just aching My Shoes is all tight It's too complex when we choose to do it right It's wrong One minute you a soldier - strong Then you turn around talking 'bout its over and gone. (i swear to god...) (Jill Scott) I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Black Thought) When your boyfriend's in town it's bound to be trouble, love His name Black and he known to be a lover of Gettin' it on with my smokers jacket on Eyes racin' back and forth Listening to Chaka Kahn Tryin' to Figure the cause Why you always hackin' off Like I'm slackin' off Maybe our signals getting crossed What the case, love? You feel like you makin' a waste of Your precious time? - You need to get a taste of Some space to breathe, a moment as friends We shoulda felt ourselves slippin' into it again 'Cuz it's like Off and on, on and off Passion - Lost and found, found and lost Clashin', askin' for nothing but understanding Your heart's made of glass, use care in handling Girl - all-in-all I never leave you stranded 'Cuz my respect you commanded (you figure it out...) (Jill Scott) I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Black Thought) I used to come into the party And stand around 'Cuz I was kinda too shy to really get down I used to, play the corner And watch the scene Deep down, knowing I wanted, to find me a queen And I can feel that in my stomach And up in my chest Because I knew a lot of women, and some was fresh But then I found you, girl and just like me You had a heart that was yearning to be set free Now listen See you and me need to take the time To erase any doubt that's inside your mind Its not a mountain that I'm ever too tired to climb And who's counting? - But I know at least a thousand times I let you know I'm here for you, care for you, and confide in you Break bread, share with you and provide for you And that's full time - it's no 9 to 5 with you That's why I'm tryin' to work it out with you (Let's go.) (Jill Scott) I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More (Jill & Black) La da da da Da da da da La da da da Da da da Da da da da Da (Jill Scott) I've been wondering about the Complexity Of what we have it shouldn't be More Just can't see More |
