Yo my pride is heavy as two tons of scrap metal inside of a black kettle hanging on the back of a bike while a cat pedals. I mean I would normally never say that today I’m in a bad mood got eyes black like a raccoon. But that’s not the man you looking for I know it you need a black man with the confidence of a poet and today I’m a blow it Cuz truth is I’m not there in fact I’m sorta scared of the direction my life is going hey it was good knowing you but… Chorus Baby ? you caught me at a bad time In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts You should refine your search I can tell you, you deserve better than this but… The truth is you sorta the most beautiful-ist girl I’ve seen in a while Your pearly white teeth spread like an eagle You’re so regal when you smile I see you on the beach with a long sarong with a wild print like Uh huh but uh uh Cuz still I’m just a nappy headed artist and you’ll regret it the hardest once you see my moods and attitudes Move as far as you can from this man I’m warning you flesh is weak don’t let me put no thorn in you At another time and date it a be great to just hook up I’ll be filled with sooka sooka sookie sookie now My mojo would over flow a good looker now Show yo friends the type a fish that you hooking’ now But as of now I’m just a fat cow and I’m feelin low Weak and uneventful stomach like a pillow Not hard like a brillo pad I’m feeling bad and it’s sad If only you would have come at a different time I wish you had but… Baby ? you caught me at a bad time In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts You should refine your search I can tell you, you deserve better than this but… (Female) I'm feelin you, I want you, I know you want me too. I'll just give you time to unwind, relax your mind. I'm here, don't fear, I want to be near It’s so amazing that you’re still given me play even after everything that I say what are you? Some type of cultural daffodil the princess of some distant land where your face is on they dollar bill And like you coming to America to hook up with the real thang I guess I’m Eddie Murphy on Boomerang Feeling like I lost my groove but that’s alright with you you picking me up licking my cut fitting’ my rut you hitting’ me up Baby ? you caught me at a bad time In my life ? my head is off the hook like a busy line Would it be alright ? if I decline your flirts You should refine your search I can tell you, you deserve better than this but… You giving me love Wow You making me feel better uh |

I’ve been lost in my own ways and I’m getting weary (How far is heaven)
And I know that I need to change my ways of living (How far is heaven) From church to Liquor store we search for healing Big crowded world filled with lonely humans I’m a M.C. battling with melody envy Cuz melodies the only thing that seems to sooth me So we rock organs adjust the B-3’s Have the folks clap to the rap taking it Back to the color - purple - church Where ladies shouting’ joy in the midst of hurt! Revolutionaries have a curled fist at first Then years pass and it turns to a clasp They ask in the midst of all God show me ways to resist the fall! Yes yes yawl Pressure pressure the whole under Can't stop the crime can't stop the killing Watch dem life dem ah keep going under Somebody lend ah hand we hafta save dem Roots and culture We have to teach dem Cause it ah the root of dem life Bigger bigger blessings they hope they receive them Pray for them every night I gotta change my ways I need you every day Don't wanna make no excuses My life is so confusing Way down deep inside I wanna tell ya what's on my mind so sick of tryin I'm dyin My heart hurts so I can't keep from cryin |

(I wouldn’t trade what I get from my kids, the feeling of security that they get from me. Knowing that my life is making a difference in their life, knowing that they need me, I wouldn’t trade that for nothing)
Living Life-Life is love (Nobody believes me anyway) Love of woman or man The love of taking a stand of trust. You bust your butt on single scenes for what? If not to find love. You know it’s love or lack of love that causes gangs or causes thugs. Mothers & sons, fathers and daughters all are in need of someone. And at the time that we don’t find it, we design a plan…we search the land for woman or man to give what we need in order to live! We get hurt and break our spirits & our hearts. We start to fear it… we get further and further growing harder and harder… some even say why bother! Living Life-Life is love (Nobody believes me anyway) Every single person ought to have a daughter or a son Someone to love above themselves to help you grasp the depths of love It’s radical! It’s tragic though how people underestimate the greatness and relentless, miraculous stakes of love. I’m serious we see terrorist hardened to the core willing to kill mame or hurt just so they can be heard! They’ll kill women or children, we’re quick to say that they’re villains but every bodies got feelings, the things that they’ve been just dealing with! Living Life-Life is love (Nobody believes me anyway) The heart of a man is complex, who can understand it Next, we taking love for granted, never the way the Father planned it A seed was planted in the children, love your daddies and you mothers Brothers love your sisters, all of my sisters love your brothers Because we are getting older, we got the weight of the world on our shoulders But hold your head up soldier, although I know your heart is growing colder Similar to polar, love your family tipsy or sober Magnolia resist the coke, and I'm not referring to cola Because we fall in and out of love, shout love, doubt love Husband or wife and now your whole life is about love Too much or not enough love leads to rough love Tough love, some overstand but handcuff love A different race, dogs on the chase like who's next love A different game, no one's ashamed of same sex love Those loving respect, ought to try to respect love It's One Love, I'm living to protect love But.... (Nobody believes me anyway) |

Since the last time, since the last time
It's been two years since we rock stages together We covered bases together and whether we all agreed or not 20/20 vision is hindsight and now we got that so we done got back Some of our soldiers have fallen, so many years of toiling Touring, tears falling, naw pouring jaded from the industries Jabs a lil' slower like Muhammad Ali but still we able to last So we go in the studio, it felt new but yet in a good way It felt old routines, we did came back so lucid, we was boosted We juiced it and came up with some tracks that's stupid And people responded to 'em, heads on the blocks With locks and baggie jeans, the whole scene was fond to 'em And how we got the labels kissing our hind parts We desired art and never sold out for the high chart positions I have been a thousand places Seen a million faces since the last time (Since the last time) I have been a thousand places Seen a million faces since the last time (Since the last time) Many rap groups attempt to latch to the popular cultures statutes And thus they detach their roots from the soil that kept them loose And made what they delivered so true There's a desert waste land of past artists that's so cruel Feeling thrown out like woody in toy story two And yo we felt that but let me tell you Satan, he dealt that I think it's time to give him his deck back, c'mon now I have been a thousand places Seen a million faces since the last time (Since the last time) I have been a thousand places Seen a million faces since the last time (Since the last time) Since the last time |

I stand for children innocence in they eyes playing under blue skies trying out fake cries to see dey mamma sympathize wanting dey new toys thinking it a bring em joy thinking mom and dad are wack but later on they realize
Children playing in the dirt getting wet in the rain, falling till they learn that part of life is pain crawling till they learn that walking is another thing and running can come only when walking is no type of strain I stand for beauty earth sky woman man or other worldly things like birth strife and death again and things that we cant touch like love faith and sacrifice things that we like much like good food and moon light cloud formations clear blue skies four season leaves and the colors that stop by great songs great art great books and stories unrecognized underdogs that later gain glory The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am I stand for truth political or spiritual and I know the truth can hurt but I’d rather hear it though whether truth about the past present future or all I know the man who hates truth is the man who will fall, I know that every single issue boils down to sin and the only way to kill sin is from within and the man who points his finger at everyone else has got 4 other finger pointed back to himself and that people don’t change cuz of words alone yet a nation can moved by one person whose strong and truth can be buried for moments of time but like the last day buried things are bound to rise… The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am As I stand, so I rise Lift my tears up to the sky I stand for something or everything I fall for even when I’m wrong yo you know my views we choose most of our paths and that’s just the truth even if most of our ways lead to further blues and sometimes I stand for nothing I just sit and listen cuz no matter how much I got there’s things I’m missing so when its all done and said I stand for this, when its all done and said I stand for this, when its all done and said I stand for this Children beauty truth and something that stirs my insides inspires my very life cuz bottom line for everyone is you stand or sit, you stand or sit, you stand or sit, you stand or sit As I stand, so I rise Lift my tears up to the sky The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am The things that I stand for tell who I am |

Yo
What can happen on an average beautiful day? You never know. Summer brings seasonal changes; it gets hot for a brother. On a beautiful sun- shiny day, I felt real free check out what happened to me. A nice breeze going through my hair, I’m loving how it feels right now! Beautiful people around: man, women, child. Kids with the Hula hoops hips going round. Mothers breast-feeding, kids lips pressing down. Beautiful-ist women: white, yellow, red, black, brown and dreads. Melting pot going down! Definitely an aphrodisiac crowd. And it’s time for me to go on stage right now! I take command of the mic like POW! Six o’clock white woman in the 6th aisle. She and her friend be smiling at me so wild, and I must admit she has a beautiful smile! I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine Folks to the right won’t ya raise ya hands and the folks to ya left won’t ya raise ya hands. From the front to the back won’t ya raise ya hands everybody in the joint won’t ya raise ya hands. After the show there was an autograph signing and she squeezed back stage and got in line and…I was wrapped up with the fans Sharpie in my hand, there she goes again, beautiful smile long hair, brushed across my hand like silk I swear, no lie. This is not me trying to deny who I am nor my race, I know my black sisters are constantly debased, and the truth is black berries are my taste but I’m high off possibilities of this thing blossoming so I just give it a try. As she handed her num… I felt a little numb inside of my mind feeling like I just betrayed all of my kind. But without no delay, without more to say, without no consideration for my race she said,”yo why don’t you come to my place”. I said, “right away” I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine. Many would have me say that this girl was evil. We both human beings and I know we equal, but we hung out and talked and we walked and things. And some brothers gave me stares I said that ain’t fair we two humans beings here. And I ain’t confused, I know my history’s clear, the sunshine’s beaming on both kinds of hair. Wisdom speaking loud, some folks don’t want to hear.There’s nothing new under the sun, many things that was had to succumb to the rhythm of the drum cuz we’re children of the son. And only he’s seen what has been seen since the beginning of day one. And the truth is this story is more of a lesson. I’m actually married to a sister that’s a black one. But under the sun what ever color your attracting, just remember loves and action word and character is more so what we should prefer. I’m loving the sunshine, can’t help the way I feel, in the sunshine |

Words are flying out Like endless rain into a paper cup They slither while they pass They slip away, across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy Are driftin thorough my open mind Possessing and caressing me [Chorus:] Jai Guru-oooh, Deva, Ohmmmmmm Nothing's gonna change my world [x4] [Speech:] Images of broken light Which dance before me like a million eyes They call me on and on Across the universe Thoughts meander like a restless wind Inside a letter box They tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe [Chorus] [Speech:] Sounds of laughter, shades of life Are ringing through my open ears Exciting and inviting me In-vi-ting Limitless undying love Which shines around me like a million suns It calls me on and on Across the universe [Chorus] |

[Speech:] Yeah? Yo we was talkin earlier and I was I was tellin you, I was talkin 'bout life And I.. I feel like life is really just like braided hair Cause it's, it's got like twists Y'know, you know about braidin? Heh Like twists you know, three strands twist together Ultimately you get to where you gonna get to, y'know [Verse 1:] From the same dirt, from the hills of my ancestors The naked rows and the fields where the pain festered I wonder where the hole came from In the deeps of my heart, make me yearn for the drum It's the same place where the cross is burned The same place where the loss was earned It's the place where the floss was yearned Gold teeth and bling ice on the rings baby sure [Chorus: Neneh Cherry + Speech] Yo we all got things that hangin about Things that make us cool, things that make us whack Things that make us mad Things we wish we never had... done But they're just the things that make us real Not the maps to guide where we go from here The road twists and braids like hair Until we all get there [Verse 2:] I like that I don't know some mysteries Ancient things and beginnings Excited 'bout the day when I don't have to hear all the theories My scalp needs some grease In the same place where the cross is burned The same place where the loss was earned The only way we all can learn Is if we have these brais with the twists and turns [Chorus] [Verse 3: Neneh Cherry] Walkin in the race of life, lookin for my own pace Not always wantin to, but I have to Sometimes feelin like I've bitten off much more than I can chew But the wind goes though my hair And lifts me up with ease, not a crease Hair full of grease, no weave embracin me It's you I see I am you and you are me I see, yeah [African chanting interlude] I am you and you are me I see, yeah [Speech: repeat to fade] We might survive as brothers yeah or perish here as fools Go place your bets; but don't bet too soon Yeah you might find me in another, feels like someone you once knew You know that face, yeah we all do |

I need some time to ease my mind
Thrusted in a world that I don't know from my mamas lips between my mamas hips I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands it's that bond that keeps the movement movin' on. Life is surrounded with so many insecurities back stabbin' is like breathing when in poverty. I try to make my sanity, with the insane God is secondary to most, when they scrap for money. But, then again money can cause even more death. when a African becomes a nigger step n fetch n all. I dare say when price is right U can buy us all. well not me, cuz I don't truly give a care about you. I'll move in poverty, in wealth but I'll surely move! Ain't syncopated with your beats or your wack grooves my break beat is to break away from yo thang All these things you put on me makes this brother sing... Chorus: I need some time to ease my mind. Mind & soul is even more important then body money can put my body in all exotic spaces meanwhile my mind & soul remotely dwells within that fine spot between all messed up & hell. And so I move on with confidence of harmony And do my thang to resist this wack society Cuz if you don't resist, & I mean consciously you'll fool your sub-conscious into accepting it. I ain't acceptin' it - I keep my focus I keep my focus - I ain't acceptin'it. Give me a face pencil to draw a smile on me. Answer my prayer to give my Earthly body inner peace Answer my prayer to give my Earthly body inner inner peace. Until that day upon which my souls released! Chorus need some time need some time when the sista's say it then you know it's gotta be real! Thrusted in a world that I don't know from my mommas lips between my mamas hips I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on. And so I GOTTA BE READY TO RELINQUISH gotta be ready to relinquish, my breath of life for struggle. That is why I tell you... I need some time to ease my mind. |

Lately I've been in a life like limbo
Looking out of a smudged up window We're not sure where our lives are going Friends, it's summer outside but yet we're snowed in Don't know where our next dollar's coming from Living the life of a poor musician Headliner's strong so he keeps his 9 to 5 Cutting brothers' hair as a means of staying alive If it wasn't for the rhythm I think we would have given up by now This system has gotten the best of me Now I pray for God to invest in me My dignity, invest his glory Give me the strength so I can finish the story Keep on searching for the right way to go out 'Cause going out is what it's all about huh! You can't be passive, gotta be active Can't go with what looks attractive Gotta learn all I can while I'm able Headliner expresses his feeling on those turntables When we get our chance To make a good living of the music we program We don't sell out just to be sold out Brothers and sisters, do you know what I'm yapping about? 'Cause if they take away our contract We still got talent and we still got contacts 'Cuase we're worked real hard to get this far We're catching the bus before we bought the car Ya see ! Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Got to get political Political I gotta get Grown but can't hold my own So this government needs to be overthrown Brothers with the AKs and the 9 MMs need to learn how to correctly shoot'em Save those rounds for a revolution Poor whites and blacks bumrushing the system But I tell you: Ain't no room for gangstaz 'Cause ganstaz do dirty work and get pimped by mobsters Some fat Italian eating pasta 'n lobster Brothers getting jailed and mobsters own the coppers So you you want out of the ghetto First the political prisoners must be let go And you must let go of your power master You'll never get out without much discipline Raise your fist but also raise your children So when you die the movement moves on 'Cause with revolution, ain't no future in front o' y'all haha! Direct your anger, love Nothing's ever built on hate, instead love Love your life, tackle the government The spooks that break down the door are heaven sent and my phrase went... Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever Alright Rhythm makes you move your body, rhythm makes you move your mind move Rhythm makes your elbows groove, rhythm makes that behind move Rhythm makes the people move, rhythm makes you want to move Rhythm makes your mind soothe, you know next stop is Jerusalem |

I protect my house but on tour I try to find a home where my people are secure, Your racist views are the views of your own But please don't let it enter my family zone. Just lettin' you know, I'm not a lil ole' colored boy That steps off the curb when you walk your walk So please don't mistake my kindness for blindness I've known yo game since Columbus came And if I woulda known how your neck was burnin' red. In your complex I wouldn't of been caught dead, So here's my message from me to you My space is off limits until we move! You understand that! Mr. Landlord step of my yard Mr. Landlord I have to question Do you expect me to chill while ou're bumrushin You thought we were the passive kind well yo're mistakin' You outta give nuff respect like I'm Jamaican The point is I feel you endanger my pride Your racist comments, yhour racist approach I aint with... It's bad enough there's kids in there that are strugglin Finding themselves with out you bringin' racism! Just to bring peace do I have to get a piece? And in the break of dawn I guess I'll pray 2 the east Cuz I'm not the one to get slapped on the cheek Without my fist curling up to hit you back in yo teeth! Yo (free yourself-free yourself-freedom) Is what we want not a fight Waving Confederate flags & gun toting' is your type You ever heard of Ogune, well soon his spell Will clear my brain while he clears where I dwell. I call on the natural forces that be.. To help to free me, to free me! Al-ya bolia bol-I YA Al-ya bolia bol-I YA A yaah ea yaah ea |

I need some time to ease my mind
Thrusted in a world that I don't know from my mamas lips between my mamas hips I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands it's that bond that keeps the movement movin' on. Life is surrounded with so many insecurities back stabbin' is like breathing when in poverty. I try to make my sanity, with the insane God is secondary to most, when they scrap for money. But, then again money can cause even more death. when a African becomes a nigger step n fetch n all. I dare say when price is right U can buy us all. well not me, cuz I don't truly give a care about you. I'll move in poverty, in wealth but I'll surely move! Ain't syncopated with your beats or your wack grooves my break beat is to break away from yo thang All these things you put on me makes this brother sing... Chorus: I need some time to ease my mind. Mind & soul is even more important then body money can put my body in all exotic spaces meanwhile my mind & soul remotely dwells within that fine spot between all messed up & hell. And so I move on with confidence of harmony And do my thang to resist this wack society Cuz if you don't resist, & I mean consciously you'll fool your sub-conscious into accepting it. I ain't acceptin' it - I keep my focus I keep my focus - I ain't acceptin'it. Give me a face pencil to draw a smile on me. Answer my prayer to give my Earthly body inner peace Answer my prayer to give my Earthly body inner inner peace. Until that day upon which my souls released! Chorus need some time need some time when the sista's say it then you know it's gotta be real! Thrusted in a world that I don't know from my mommas lips between my mamas hips I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on. And so I GOTTA BE READY TO RELINQUISH gotta be ready to relinquish, my breath of life for struggle. That is why I tell you... I need some time to ease my mind. |

Down and out, losing ground Although I am Black and proud Problems got me pessimistic Brothers and sisters keep messing up Why does it have to be so damn tough? I don't know where I can go To let these ghosts out of my skull My grandma's passed, my brother's gone I never at once felt so alone I know you're supposed to be my steering wheel Not just my spare tire (home) But Lord I ask you (home) To be my guiding force and truth (home) For some strange reason it had to be (home) He guided me to Tennessee (home) Take me to another place Take me to another land Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Take me to another place Take me to another land Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Lord it's obvious we got a relationship Talkin' to each other every night and day Although you're superior over me We talk to each other in a friendship way Then outta nowhere you tell me to break Outta the country and into more country Past Dyesburg into Ripley Where the ghost of childhood haunts me Walk the roads my forefathers walked Climbed the trees my forefathers hung from Ask those trees for all their wisdom They tell me my ears are so young (home) Go back to from whence you came (home) My family tree, my family name (home) For some strange reason it had to be (home) He guided me to Tennessee (home) Take me to another place Take me to another land Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Take me to another place Take me to another land Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Eshe? She went down to Holly Springs. Rasha Don and Baba? They went down to Peachtree. Headliner, I challenge you to a game of horseshoes. A game of horseshoes! Now I see the importance of history Why my people be in the mess that they be Many journeys to freedom made in vain My brothers on the corner playing ghetto games I ask you Lord why you enlightened me Without the enlightenment of all my folks He said 'cause I set myself on a quest for truth And you was there to quench my thirst But I am still thirsty... The Lord allowed me to drink some more He said what I am searching for Are the answers to all which are in front of me The ultimate truth started to get blurry For some strange reason it had to be It was all a dream about Tennessee Take me to another place (Home) Take me to another land (Home) Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Take me to another place (Home) Take me to another land (Home) Make me forget all that hurts me Let me understand your plan Oh won't you let me Won't you help me Won't you help me understand you plan? Take me home Take me home Home Take me to another place Take me home Oh you know I need to go home, yeah Headliner? I won the game of horseshoes. Now you owe me a watermelon. Let's go climb trees and skip over rocks, do like they do below the border. Hmm? Speech's hair? No it look like the roots of the tree my ancestors were hung from. But that's okay, get it, 'cuz he's down to earth. Tennessee. Tennessee, Whoo! Yeah Tennessee. Te-Tenness... |
