[q-tip] | |
Back in the days when i was a teenager | |
Before i had status and before i had a pager | |
You could find the abstract listening to hip hop | |
My pops used to say, it reminded him of be-bop | |
I said, well daddy don't you know that things go in cycles | |
The way that bobby brown is just ampin like michael | |
Its all expected, things are for the lookin | |
If you got the money, quest is for the bookin | |
Come on everybody, let's get with the fly modes | |
Still got room on the truck, load the back boom | |
Listen to the rhyme, to get a mental picture | |
Of this black man, through black woman victim | |
Why do i say that, cuz i gotta speak the truth man | |
Doing what we feel for the music is the proof and | |
Planted on the ground, the act is so together | |
Bonafied strong, you need leverage to sever | |
The unit, yes, the unit, yes, the unit called the jazz is | |
Deliberatley cheered lp filled with streeet goods | |
You can find it on the rack in your record store (store) | |
If you get the record, then your thoughts are adored | |
And appreciated, cause we're ever so glad we made it | |
We work hard, so we gotta thank god | |
Dishin out the plastic, do the dance till you spastic | |
If you dis... it gets drastic | |
Listen to the rhymes, cuz its time to make gravy | |
If it moves your booty, then shake, shake it baby | |
All the way to africa a.k.a. the motherland (uh) | |
Stick out the left, then i'll ask for the other hand | |
That's the right hand, black man (man) | |
Only if you was noted as my man (man) | |
If i get the credit, then i'll think i deserve it | |
If you fake moves, don't fix your mouth to word it | |
Get in the zone of positivity, not negativity | |
Cuz we gotta strive for longevity | |
If you botch up, what's in that (ass) (what?) | |
A pair of nikes, size ten-and-a-half (come on, come on) | |
Chorus: | |
We gotta make moves | |
Never, ever, ever could we fake moves (come on, come on) (4x) | |
"time.. time is a ship on a merciless sea | |
Drifting toward an average of nothingness | |
Until it can be retarded for it's own destiny | |
Time is an inanimate object | |
Praying and praying and praying for ?? | |
Time is dancing, moving lingering all memories of past.." | |
-> the last poets | |
You gotta be a winner all the time | |
Can't fall prey to a hip hop crime | |
With the dope raps and dope tracks for you for blocks | |
From the fly girlies to the hardest of the rocks | |
Musically the quest, is on the rise | |
We on these excursions so you must realize | |
That continually, i pop my zulu | |
If you don't like it, get off the zulu tip | |
So what could you do in the times which exist | |
You can't fake moves on your brother or your sis | |
But if your sis is a (bitch), brother is a jerk | |
Leave 'em both alone and continue with your work | |
Whatever it may be in today's society | |
Everything is fair, at least that how it seems to me | |
You must be honest and true to the next | |
Don't be phony and expect one not to flex | |
Especially if you rhyme, you have to live by the pen | |
Your man is your man, then treat him like your friend | |
All it is, is the code of the streets | |
So listen to the knowledge bein dropped over beats | |
Beats that are hard, beats that are funky | |
It could get you hooked like a crackhead junkie | |
What you gotta do to is know that the tribe is in the sphere | |
The abstract poet, prominent like shakespeare | |
Chorus | |
Edgar allan poe, it don't stop (uh!) | |
"time is running out on black power africans today | |
And whites blacks and reporters at night | |
Everytime you see them ?? with their tongues hangin out | |
Time is running and past and passing and running | |
Running and past and passing and running (excursions)" |

[00:09.940] | 回到过去我十几岁的时候 |
[00:12.277] | 在我有地位和传呼机之前 |
[00:14.929] | 你可以看到我在听嘻哈乐 |
[00:17.476] | 我爸爸常说,这让他想起了波普爵士乐 |
[00:20.037] | 我说:“爸,你不知道万物都是循环往复的吗?” |
[00:22.516] | 鲍比·布朗就像迈克尔一样疯狂 |
[00:24.980] | 一切都在意料之中,一切都是为了寻找 |
[00:27.532] | 如果你有钱,Quest就愿意为你效劳 |
[00:30.037] | 来吧大家一起,让我们跟上这节奏 |
[00:32.595] | 卡车上的低音炮还留有位置 |
[00:35.072] | 听这些韵文,然后在脑海中形成一幅图画 |
[00:37.439] | 黑人的男人,黑人的女人 |
[00:40.036] | 我为什么这么说?因为我必须说实话,伙计 |
[00:42.516] | 表达真实的音乐感受就是证明 |
[00:45.244] | 扎根于地,行为是如此的团结 |
[00:47.455] | 联结如此紧密,你要用杠杆才能撬开 |
[00:50.111] | 团结,联合,这种连接单元就是爵士 |
[00:52.501] | 每年发表一个充满街头元素的黑胶 |
[00:55.130] | 你可以在唱片店里的架子上找到它 |
[00:57.564] | 如果明白了其中的道理,可以说你的想法是被认可的 |
[01:00.105] | 感谢,因为我们很高兴我们成功了 |
[01:03.016] | 我们努力工作,所以我们要感谢上帝 |
[01:04.982] | 购买塑料唱片,跟着跳舞直到你麻木 |
[01:07.680] | 如果你指责它,它就会变得极端 |
[01:10.878] | 听这节奏,因为是时候做肉汁了 |
[01:12.680] | 如果你感受到了这种节奏,那就摇摆,宝贝 |
[01:15.146] | 一路到非洲,又称祖国 |
[01:17.653] | 伸出左手,然后我要求另一边 |
[01:20.363] | 那是右手礼,黑人 |
[01:22.444] | 除非你被人认出是我的人 |
[01:24.956] | 如果我得到了荣誉,那么我认为这是我应得的 |
[01:27.799] | 如果你在弄虚作假,那就不要虚张声势 |
[01:30.269] | 进入积极的状态,而不是消极的状态 |
[01:33.425] | 因为我们要保持艺术的长寿 |
[01:35.447] | 如果你搞砸了,那你会得到什么? |
[01:37.727] | 什么?你会被狠狠的踢一脚 |
[01:41.326] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[01:43.350] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[01:46.126] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[01:48.217] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[01:51.055] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[01:53.131] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[01:56.267] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[01:57.749] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[02:01.674] | 时间,时间是一艘船在无情的大海上 |
[02:05.037] | 飘向虚无的深渊 |
[02:07.239] | 直到它能够重新规划自己的命运 |
[02:09.840] | 时间是无生命的东西,为信仰而付出 |
[02:15.892] | 时间在跳舞,甩开过去的所有记忆 |
[02:20.336] | 我们必须一直是赢家 |
[02:22.416] | 永远不能出卖自己或放弃 |
[02:24.736] | 我们的说唱和唱片传播到街区 |
[02:27.343] | 从追求潮流的女孩到硬核的匪帮 |
[02:29.671] | Quest的音乐性,正在上升 |
[02:32.072] | 我们在探索的旅行中,所以你必须认识到 |
[02:34.664] | 我不断地坚持我的祖鲁风格 |
[02:37.392] | 如果你不喜欢,就别掺和进来 |
[02:39.865] | 那么,在这个存在的时代,你能做些什么呢 |
[02:42.369] | 你不能欺骗你的兄弟姐妹 |
[02:44.545] | 但如果你姐妹是个泼妇,兄弟是个笨蛋 |
[02:47.353] | 那就别管他们,继续你的工作 |
[02:49.771] | 不管当今社会是什么样子 |
[02:52.254] | 一切都是公平的,至少在我看来是这样 |
[02:54.800] | 你必须保持诚实、真诚 |
[02:57.627] | 不要虚伪,也不要指望别人屈尊 |
[02:59.851] | 尤其是如果你押韵,你就得靠笔来生活 |
[03:02.315] | 你要追随的那个人,把他当作你的朋友 |
[03:05.515] | 这就是街头的规则 |
[03:07.562] | 所以,请听一听这些知识是如何随着节拍而讲述的 |
[03:10.058] | 节奏很强劲,节奏很跳跃 |
[03:12.359] | 他们会让你上瘾,就像隐君子一样 |
[03:15.223] | 你要做的就是知道部落就在这个星球上 |
[03:17.452] | 抽象诗人,和莎士比亚一样杰出 |
[03:20.188] | (或者埃德加·爱伦·坡,或者兰斯顿·休斯,或者……) |
[03:21.847] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[03:23.150] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[03:26.430] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[03:28.026] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[03:31.406] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[03:33.133] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[03:36.421] | 我们必须做出改变 |
[03:38.093] | 我们永远,永远,永远不能假装 |
[03:40.678] | 时间在不断的流逝着,黑人权力倡导者在白天,白人的支持者在晚上 |
[03:45.124] | 每次你看到他们,他们都在追一些伸着舌头的白人女人 |
[03:48.312] | 时间在不断的流逝和变换着... |
