(Q-Tip) |
|
Q-Tip is my title. |
|
I don't think that is vital for me to be your idol, |
|
but dig this recital. |
|
If you can't envision a brother who ain't dissin |
|
Slingin' this and that, 'cause this and that was missin |
|
Instead, it's been injected, the Tribe has been perfected |
|
Oh yes, it's been selected, the art makes it protected |
|
Afrocentric livin', Africans be givin |
|
A lot to the cause 'cause the cause has been risen |
|
Some brothers, they be flammin', thinkin' we ain't slammin |
|
Comin' off like the days where we used to wear the tans and |
|
A blue-colllar talker, a hemisphere stalker |
|
A glass of O.J and a ten mile walk-a |
|
If you're in a Jeep and you dig what you're hearin |
|
Can I get a beep and a side order of cheerin? |
|
I am what I am, that's a tribal man |
|
We all know the colours, we all must stand |
|
As we start our travels, things they will unravel |
|
"Que sera sera", for this unit is like gravel |
|
Won't be gone for long, listen to the song |
|
If you can't pull it, all ya gotta do is |
|
Chorus: |
|
Push it along, push it along. |
|
Push it along, yeah, push it along. (repeat 4x) |
|
(Phife Dawg) |
|
Put one up for the Phifer, it's time to decipher |
|
The ills of the world make the situation lighter |
|
The clock is always tickin', the systems should be kickin |
|
Like ? ham and eggs, I eat chicken, chicken, chicken |
|
Should I release the lever, the lever of the clever |
|
Embelish on the funk as we start to endeavour? |
|
The ?wraughts? of the rap filling up the gap |
|
With the smash of a hand and a little toe tap |
|
(Q-Tip) |
|
The boom, the bip, the boom bip |
|
Indicates to the brothers that we be on the flip tip |
|
Phonies start to crumble, funky rhythm rumbles |
|
Through the dance-hall, but my anthem is humble |
|
It's the nitty-gritty, my time is itty-bitty |
|
So I ?kick the slash for the gipper? and the witty |
|
This ain't trial and error, more like tribe and error |
|
Constantly rude as some sort of tribal terror |
|
The street can't depart from the bloody heart |
|
Repair the wear and tear, don't start 'fore it starts |
|
Won't be gone for long, listen to the song |
|
If you can't pull it, all ya gotta do is |
|
Repeat chorus |
|
(Q-Tip) |
|
Marchin' off the project, we hope that you will subject |
|
It's good to be an object and never, ever reject |
|
The tribe who meanders with drunken propoganda |
|
Keep it in boom and never will we slander |
|
? should be handed, don't let me demand it |
|
Money gives a nudge to the poet star bandit |
|
Control it, then recluse it, follow, you won't lose it |
|
Mysterious is the tribe for we choose it |
|
Although she's flippin' crazy, give my love to Gracy |
|
God, could you help 'cause this Quest is crazy spacey? |
|
The pigs are wearin' blue, and in a year or two |
|
We'll be goin' up the creek in a great big canoe |
|
What we gonna do, save me and my brothers? |
|
Hop inside the bed and pull over the covers |
|
Never will we do that and we ain't tryin' to rule that |
|
We just want a slab of the ham, don't you know, black? |
|
This society of fake reality |
|
Are nothin' but a peg of informality |
|
While I sing my song, sing it all day long, |
|
If you can't pull it, all ya gotta do is |
|
Repeat chorus |
