(Bridge 1)
|
Slow down, don't rush
|
I'm here to keep the peace but I'm prepared to say, ay
|
Slow down, don't rush
|
I'm here to keep the peace but I'm prepared, now I say
|
|
(Chorus-Afu-ra)
|
Yeah, I pledge allegiance to the hip-hop
|
Yeah, I pledge allegiance to it nonstop
|
What, I pledge allegiance to the hip-hop
|
Yeah, I pledge allegiance to it nonstop
|
|
(Afu-ra)
|
Meditation, equality, it keeps me level headed, the men-tal-ity
|
Cool, calm, posignatic with suggestion
|
Never stressin, heat chambers never sweatin
|
Honeys cryin, 'cause her man she caught cheatin
|
Mothers eyein, sons cut down like bushes
|
Daddys sicker than the land lord, just evicted
|
Stressed to death, month to month until he kicked it
|
I seen ya hustlin on the dark streets, the mental
|
Look what you been through, you just escaped reality
|
Now what ya into, is just a technicality
|
Check it, deep inside of my head like T.V.
|
The lifestyle I live so crooked you won't believe me
|
Lessons learned that I could walk a tight rope
|
Even though I toke and choke, don't provoke
|
Uh, now you can call me Afu-rastahood
|
'Cause I rob from the rich and I give to the good
|
Even though it's for the money B, I'm droppin dollars G
|
Straight shots in the head, peep the summary
|
Wake up in the mornin got me yearnin for food
|
Yeah, yeah what, huh, I'm that type a dude
|
Pledge allegiance, pay attention, payin homage
|
So much time held in my hand, none for college (college)
|
|
(Chorus)
|
Hey Afu, hey Afu, hey Afu, hey Afu
|
(Bridge 2)
|
Slow down, don't rush,
|
I'm here to keep the peace but I'm prepared to bust
|
They wanna cut my meditation with their crooked laws
|
Say I can't hold a bong and smoke my la
|
If it's war that they want we already are registered
|
The king, it is he, who defends me
|
So when it's time for the showdown
|
We'll march in the soldiers Babylon, get throwed down
|
When the war is over we run up the whole town
|
And my spliff will stay lit from sun up to sun down
|
Ay, Afu
|
|
(Bridge 1)
|
|
(Afu-ra)
|
Stimulating, verses like blood working
|
Paper hits the pen like the needle to ya skin
|
Blow ya blood up, Xena, hero-in
|
More contagious than sex (sex), nobody flex
|
Dangerous minds, little kids throw gang signs
|
Treacherous times, too many can't press rewind
|
Stress the elevation, wrap my thoughts like a mummy
|
It's funny, how sometimes some smart one's a dummy
|
Scorin a million, forget the S.A.T.
|
Now I leap on towers in Piza, peep the ether
|
Wrap it in a scroll, pass it off to Carmani
|
Lessons of exquisietness verses poetry
|
|
(Bridge 1)
|
(Chorus)
|
