from The Roots - Don't Feel Right [single] (2006)
[Chorus:]
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 Seems to me now a days things have changed I don't know if I feel the same. [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. [Chorus:] 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 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. |
