Verse
|
|
Sometimes men and women look at themselves and see bliss
|
Through experience we tend to exist
|
That's through our past or our caretakers
|
The instance is in particular, so you need to recognize that
|
if you take all this away
|
and look at us at the end of the day
|
we stand great among creation
|
So baby take these words as a little inspiration
|
While I kick this shit get your ass motivation
|
MCs, you're walking a thin line
|
Get in your ranks and tighten up as we walk through mines
|
and plus vipers, phony rhymers and biters
|
Money-grubbers, beat-dubbers
|
amongst a whole host of others
|
Who be fakin', fraudulatin'
|
Waitin' for your bacon
|
They be takin' and skatin' while you sit contemplatin'
|
Who's your peoples
|
Well let me tell you somethin' now paw
|
We're livin' a world that's R-A-double-raw
|
It's crazy but it's true, go for delly is the law
|
and if you cross the path then you dangerin' your jaw
|
And if you Glass Joe, don't go toe-for-toe
|
Yo all we wanna do is our thing and lay low
|
So brothers hold your heads high when you get down
|
Don't violate these women cuz we need them around
|
It's all of us together, not the one without the other
|
The Abstract is ill, word to mother.
|
|
Chorus
|
|
We got to do our do, not separate, together
|
Got to move on through, not separate, together
|
Got to do our do, not separate, together
|
Got to move on through, not separate, together
|
|
Yo, we got some problems baby
|
People stressed out, check it
|
But we can make it Sugar
|
Keep it light and I say
|
move on through separate
|
not together but together
|
Not separate, that's how
|
we got to do it, check it on out
|
Bust it, yo...
|
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
