Common, common
Yeah, yeah, Hi-Tek Free the rhyme or risk a dig into a deep sound abyss Unit in the stash the beats and never found the shit Experience like Hendrix, keep my sound enriched Cats ask about my stitch, to me they soundin' bitch In my sounds the glitch of hatred for cats who ain't make it I'ma give it, as far as you can take it Tried to take the safe way, told you there's a gateway to skinny Many can find it but few can climb it I'm open-minded like a pothead Doin' what I gotta do to keep the spot fed In the climate of locked dreads, corn-rows, torn souls Worn hoes, who been molested by they uncle I bundle, amongst you cold motheruckers The world is bitter, like baby mothers Look how far El Dorados and wine bottles drug us Least God and the sun love us, it's the Sun God Everywhere is broken glass Nephews smokin' squares, nieces smokin' grass Try not to say shoot around my daughter, she already know to blast Catchin' the future, don't know who threw the past It's the, year of the snake and the hidden dragon Niggaz is fake like bitches braggin' Listen to the ocean and the stars, keep my vision in motion In motion like cars I'm down to Earth, at times I feel closer to Mars The world is yours, I'm hopin' it's ours Some say the Gods is crazy, I see God in our babies Child of the sun, I allowed it to raise me From a distance niggaz tried to appraise me I'm hard to read like graffiti so it don't phase me My days be spent, behind dream's tent Through the sun the divine being is sent It's the Sun God Letters from prison sayin' we need a better religion I'm a rebel that listens from a eighty-seven position I can't crystallize the mission lies within Born to die even in death we begin It's heavy jo learnin' what we already know And carry low swing on a chariot slow Brothers stick though remindin' me of revolution If the drama comes I'ma have to, uhh, pop his gun It's the Sun God, yeah To the sun To the sun To the sun ... |

Attention players
The rules of the game have now changed People are no longer afraid of the truth You call yourself an MC? Hi-Tek, hit 'em with the.. Hi-Tek on the boards, Kweli in the booth Make 'em feel it in they bones with the.. Come down yo.. Like, oh my God, what do we have here? My man is on fire like the Ohio Players Throw yo' hands in the air, keep 'em there if you with me The MPC-60 is rare, but it still sound cripsy Kicks and snares take 'em from elsewhere, samples is hard to find We don't just act divine, we are We walkin upright, you lack spine I don't just write rhymes I send force through pipelines to like minds My light shine so bright it do be, vital like lifesigns The night time is the right time for a battle so it's special When cats don't just say your joint is hot, cats say "Yo I respect you" Put yo' fist in the air when you hear the manifesto You had any prior doubts to my skills? Time to let go Hi-Tek, the beats is right beside the soundgarden Tracks get in the vein like heroin the way heads be noddin Officially, people love our company like they was misery I'm known to blast MC's with the cannon of history Specifically the ones who forgot where they come from So it's the light that they run from like roaches Whenever the truth approaches I attack the track ferocious, never lose my focus Hold this true hip-hop, closest to my heart, and you know this Nowadays it's hopeless and my diagnosis Is to grab the microphone and be the dopest, you can quote this Niggaz sound like they injected with collagen You followin these hollow men no honor when You bite off more than you could chew or could be swallowin Sorry man I ain't got no pity for you to wallow in Quit hollerin before you get stomped out with my Solomon's All the way from Lynn Street, to (?) Always bringin you hot shit, aiyyo we promisin |

[Mos Def]
Lawd, lawd have mercy All nice and peace and true, follow me now, we say Say Hi-Tek yes you're ruling hip-hop Say J. Rawls yes you're ruling hip-hop Redefinition say you're ruling hip-hop Say Black Star come to rock it non... Yo, from the first to the last of it, delivery is passionate The whole and not the half of it, vocab and not the math of it Projectile that them blasted with, accurate assassin shit Me and Kweli close like, Bethlehem and Nazareth After this you be pressing rewind on top your master disk Shining like an asterisk for all those that be gatherin Connectin like a roundhouse from the townhouse to the tenements Cause all my Brooklyn residents, heavy regiments Don't believe, here the evidence, where Brooklyn WHOA See that? Bound to take it all kid, believe that From where they sellin tree at, to where the police be at Talib Kweli e-Kweli-ty yo tell them where we be at [Talib Kweli] Brooklyn New York City where they paint murals of Biggie In cash we trust cause it's ghetto fabulous, life look pretty What a pity - blunts is still fifty cents, it's intense Tree scents is dominant can't be covered with incense My presence felt my name is Kweli from the Eternal Reflection People thinkin MC is short hand for Mis Conception Let me meditate, set it straight, came to the conclusion That most of these cats is featherweight, let me demonstrate Walkin the streets is like battlin, be careful with your body You must know karate or think your soul is bulletproof like Sade Stop actin like a bitch already, be a visionary And maybe you can see your name in the column of obituary Third rate teacher readin and talkin about, "I knew he'd amount to nothin" Neighbors like, "He was the quiet type, Who'd have thought they was frontin?" Talkin Loud like you in RCA, get carted away with body parts and treys, what a way to start your day Yo it's like [Chorus: Mos Def and Talib Kweli] One two three Mos Def and Talib Kweli We came to rock it on to the tip-top Best alliance in hip-hop, yeah I said one two three It's kind of dangerous to be a emcee They shot Tupac and Biggie Too much violence in hip-hop, yeah [Mos Def] I said Manhattan keep on makin it (Bo!), Brooklyn keep on takin it (Bo!) So relax we're takin it back, Redhook where we're livin at Plenty cats be strugglin not hustlin and bubblin It ain't about production and - what else we discussin? When the cock crows, my crop grows, enable me to rock flows Strivin for perfection ever since I was a snot-nosed COLOSSAL, true original B-boy apostle Standin on the rooftop with the, Zulu gestapo [Talib Kweli] You think you the shit Somebody in the wings'll force you to quit It could be your crew or click Or some random kid you smoked Buddha with Consider me the entity within the industry without a history Of spittin the epitome, of stupidity - livin my life Expressin my liberty, it gotta be done properly My name is in the middle of e-Kweli-ty People follow me and other cats they hear him flow And assume I'm the real one with lyrics like I'm Cyrano [Mos Def] Still sippin wishin well water, imported, from Pluto Three hundred and sixty millilitres for all our believers In miles or kilometers, most cats, cannot proceed us In the jungle with the leaders we the lions you the cheaters A cypher, will complete us if we come through your receivers You can play us and repeat us and then take us home and read us (Line for line) Good Jesus, Mos Def and Kweli just Make a pussy freeze up, thinkin we will ease up [Chorus] ------------- Lyrics Powered by LyricFind Written By TONY COTTRELL, TALIB KWELI GREENE, DANTE SMITH Lyrics © WINDSWEPT HOLDINGS LLC |
