[Black Thought]
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [8X]
|
|
Yo, I wrote this, basement, Never Never Tunnel type portion
|
Just to accompany some audio distortion
|
Bust the popcorn, drop it ons my cassette and
|
Yo Crumbs, umm, how you feel? I hope it's blessed man
|
Dig The Square Roots be the setters of examples
|
Findin mad rhythm in the static of your samples
|
Quick to make you move to my groove as I sooth
|
the ear of the listener on the musical
|
Prisoner G, now you're free you can be all you wanna be
|
Go where you want or go and see all you wanna see
|
Because yo, your ambitions I won't neglect
|
And to them brothers who ain't here, nuff respect
|
So BROther ?uest, how ya livin, what ya givin black?
|
To me the brother with the linens and the applejacks;
|
busy til the break of dawn
|
The first verse is born I pass the popcorn
|
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
Say what?
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
|
Secondly, I speak for the ?uest from the S-Q-T (Square Roots)
|
And I'm Black Thought, therefore you know it's funky
|
The rhythms he recycles sometimes prehistoric
|
The mic for the popcorn's like metaphoric (it's metaphoric baby)
|
So many different factors in a ?uestion style
|
Cause he's the father and he's giving more than one child
|
The abstract soloist, drummin from the heart
|
All the way from Philly in the West part
|
Relax your mind and let your body be at rest
|
Flow in slow mo', and let the BROther manifest
|
Now the second verse has been born
|
I'm Black Thought and I pass the popcorn
|
On to Kid Crumb I pass the popcorn
|
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
Say what?
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
|
From the Southern section of Philly my affection
|
affiliates me with kids, from the store to pastry
|
The Foreign Object, direct from ? with the skit
|
that be rugged, it was the drumsticks and the buckets
|
back in the days, now the Rubber Band plays to accompany
|
?uestion upon the drums and displays mad soul
|
Soul be the source of the blam Roots fam
|
as we grow and expand like the afro
|
With menacing music seriously I'm sinister
|
I shout, move about, turn it out like minister
|
Diggin the flip-side when I slide I gets biz with
|
mad melanin, chocolate, like a chip that's black man
|
from the dark room with the mad raps homegrown
|
Knots and knaps upon the dome from thinkin
|
I'm sinkin in the sound cause I gets and got down
|
Lettin Black Thought's out of lockdown, buckshot
|
Lick it to the tick of my measure's on the Richter
|
Grits getter so grab your sister
|
I get wreck so check my respect from the wreck
|
that I've gotten biting this'll make your fronts turn rotten
|
The original, rock chewer, from a duo
|
whatever called po' folkers or Crumbs, and his mouth broke
|
Kids wanna laugh so I blast on your ass to - wait see
|
Chase me and see if you catch the circular knot
|
Style buckwild the acoustic boom
|
Square Root of Black Thought broadcast with the popcorn
|
It's like that y'all
|
The popcorn popcorn as I pass y'all
|
I go..
|
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
C'mon
|
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn [4X]
|
C'mon
