Drop it
|
Ace and Action
|
Steady Pace by my side
|
The name of this one here is Together
|
This is goin out to all those who some day reach that fork in the road, you know?
|
Cause we all have the potential to get there together
|
Listen up
|
|
I got a problem, the Ace is bubblin
|
Physically I'm fit as a fiddle, but somethin's troublin
|
My mind, I'm in search of the find
|
A style that's designed just for this kind
|
Of a raid, it's a must to get paid
|
Or fade into the wack parade
|
And so you can't wade
|
Through this groove, it's as deep as a diver goes
|
As I proceed, the liver it grows
|
Then it reaches your ear, teaches you where
|
You are and where it should be, to each his share
|
Unadultared, dope, I made it to cope
|
With any that hope that I faded - nope
|
I'm still on the scene, kill all the mean
|
Stares, who cares, they hurtin nothin, when will you fiend
|
For somethin attainable, somethin more gainable
|
I build and I'm filled with knowledge undrainable
|
It's overflowin, before long you're goin
|
To find out, you kept your mind out of growin
|
The way you did it, was you didn't admit it was
|
Somethin that applied to you, you should bit it, cuz
|
But you chose to ignore, I suppose you explore
|
Only things with wings and a halo - sure
|
You're not a saint, but you try to paint
|
A picture that'll get you respect, don't you know it ain't
|
How large you're livin, or what you're drivin
|
But what your goals are, so keep on strivin
|
And gainin, maintainin
|
Keep your brain intact, this is mental trainin
|
For the minds that have given up
|
Other are livin up, if you want a sip, then go get a cup
|
And we'll take a drink from the fountain
|
Of success, yo, let's all climb the mountain
|
Together
|
|
[ CHORUS ]
|
We're gonna get there
|
Oh yeah, we're gonna get there
|
Together(3x)
|
|
We got to, got to, got to
|
Get there together
|
|
Who's with me now, raise your hand
|
Need inspiration? The capital A's your man
|
I'll inspire you to strive a little higher
|
You won't tire, and not even barbwire
|
Will obstruct your progress, I guess
|
You wanna succeed? Determination is what you need
|
Face your fears and place your tears aside
|
Raise your peers to the top, here's a guide
|
For you to follow by, try and swallow my
|
Food for thought, and you're short of an alibi
|
There's no excuses, the rhyme just spruces
|
And juices up a small mind, so call mine the loosest
|
Cause I get looser than mice in a basement
|
I grab the mic, and that's when the place went
|
Wild, Steady smiled, I didn't crack one
|
Not that I'm mean or that I lack fun
|
But the topic is serious, listeners are curious
|
Rappers are lerious, the Ace and i'm furious
|
It's not the kinda rage that makes me wanna rant and rave
|
Across the stage like a beast in a cage, I save
|
All the screamin and shoutin for the next man
|
The look on my face is the proof that I'm vexed, and
|
I don't yell, I don't swell, I tell facts
|
And simply stated I made it, sell tracks
|
But I want respect from those who chose to
|
Flap your rat traps, cause heaven knows you
|
Made a mistake when you chose to oppose
|
You tried to step on toes, now you're dissed - case closed
|
Cause like it or not, Action is gettin there
|
So keep on sittin there, riffin and splittin hair
|
And critizisin, I got my eyes in
|
An upward glance, and I see us all risin
|
Together
|
|
[ CHORUS ]
|
|
Listen up
|
Who says a brother can't get his with his
|
Eyes on the prize, realize that it is
|
Highly probable that someday he will
|
Believe and therefore achieve, but we will
|
Keep an eye out, cause he might try out
|
A quicker way to payday, but I doubt
|
The brother knows: the harder the wind blows
|
The faster the quick cash goes, and I suppose
|
Gettin paid everyday means improvement
|
Bust the movement on the floor as the groove went
|
(Together) as the bass kicked, the Ace picked
|
The mic up, and now I'm gonna strike up a taste licked
|
By a licker and bitten by a biter
|
Sucked by a sucker, I fought like a fighter
|
To get the meal rarely barely shared by
|
A brother of color, but I'm not scared, I
|
Don't wanna stop, to the top it's a rat race
|
| Or should I say rap race, I wa |
