We'd like to welcome you all again to the world of vibrations
|
Introduction to the nation of revolutionary thoughts
|
Hear the sound evolve, expand, and change
|
Most of the things that we're sayin' haven't broken through your chatter
|
So y'all niggaz still ego trip based and
|
Have not begun to taste the kundalini wisdom bliss
|
I'm droppin' as a lyric quotin' vessel for the stages
|
Play this on your play list
|
I like dough
|
But musically I'm transcendin' the physical
|
And don't blame me for the slang and the words
|
God writes these rhymes through me
|
I just listen to him
|
I'm just livin' duke
|
Matrix driven rules haven't fooled me
|
Cuz I still think abstract
|
And stay metaphysical
|
And challenge what is really real
|
And keep creatin' with the force to bring rap back
|
Not that it's away
|
But everybody got somethin' to say
|
So let me speak the opposite of what's hot now
|
And make that hot
|
So it will get exploited
|
And the corporation only will back dudes who bite my style
|
And they can try and try again
|
I've been influenced by a lot of pioneers
|
South to the East and West
|
But when a hot MC
|
Gets on stage with a real MC
|
Most of the time the situation gets hostile
|
|
[Chorus: Ledisi]
|
We vibrate at higher frequencies
|
Welcome to our world and intro to
|
Fall into a space
|
Where there is no thoughts
|
Just moments captured
|
Here we go
|
|
We vibrate at higher frequencies
|
Let us up inside your head
|
Just step inside our world of vibration
|
Bump this from your birth to your deathbed
|

|
Take time with the pad and the pen to dig within
|
In a world of BS that we're livin' in
|
To my ears music sound sweet as cinnamon
|
So I stay poundin' out tunes and tunes again and again
|
In the 5th chapter ladies and gentlemen
|
And I still got MCs on my dinner menu
|
Write late at night this isn't David Letterman though
|
On second thought, I'm like a letter man though
|
Let the craft evolve catch a little syndrome
|
Shootin' through your vains, vibratin' though your eardrums
|
Used to think 30 years old then the end comes
|
Now I feel like I'm just gainin' momentum
|
Seen the world two times all except for India
|
About to vacate there when we finish this one
|
Work hard but still some sweep
|
We won't mention them
|
In fact, they act as fuel for our engine
|
Engine engine number 9, mic lynchin'
|
When we're done with this these songs are our pension
|
MCs are puppets, Me, I'm Jim Henson
|
Take a squat or get chopped by the henchmen
|
City, town, state arena or convention
|
Please believe these the G's that ease pension
|
Rakka and Ev said that it's a marathon
|
Song after song, we keep on inventin'
|
|
[Chorus: repeats]
