And you sing Paris city
And you sing New York City
Jazz Liberatorz...
with the live motivator
Check it out, y'all
Yeah,
From the five to the mind,
the mind to the hand,
the hand to the pen
that transcribe the plan
will stick to fly paper,
but never quite land
My last destination
from bus, train, to plane
to radio station
I occupy minds,
that's my occupation
My childhood,
a baptism, indoctrination
All the way through to my high education
Reward for my patience,
I'm lovin' my callin',
Callin' my loved ones from extra long distance
across many seas
I wish y'all were here, the things that we'd see
The witness I bear, as light as hot air
But since you're not here,
I lay a foundation that brings me back
with you, reward for your patience

You can say I'm workin' on a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
And you could sing New York City
You could sing (You should sing)
You could say, matter of fact,
You can say I'm workin' on a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
(Right Now)
You could say and be true right now (right here)
You should say (You could say)
(No, you ain't)
You could say (You could say)
(Here you are)
You can say I'm workin' on your vacation
As time flies by, the calendar changes
Months, days, and years
Add-ons, Re-arrangements
There's so much divine
that ain't nothing sacred
We can't turn the clock back,
So why try and fake it?
I grow with the movement
but still I stand and retrace the steps
we call walkin' round
I look forward to a vintage
spit over jazz riffs and choose
ancient strings over synthage
the mood the beat brings
pull at your heart strings
So, for now, I choose words that won't harm ya
Disarm ya,
Slid off the armor,
Let your mind ponder
on things that calm ya
Then, let it wander
Way past beyond the
stress that your life brings
Things that fustrate ya
Gettin' all worked up,
Battlin' and Debatin'
Shut up and take a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You should say)
You could say (You might say)
You could say (As they say)
You could say (And they say Paris City)
Won't you say?
You can say I'm workin' on a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
From Harlem (Jay Live)
(And be true)
Jazz Liberatorz
You could say (Outta Paris)
You can say I'm workin' on a vacation
Back to the grime,
Nose to the grindstone
Back to the wall, ear to the ground
Feet to the pedal,
To pedal this tracks
To this time, I'll choose one to help me relax
From this lips to God's ears (and then He grows)
from a boy to a man and then he goes
transcribe His own plan
It might be flows
Like father, like son
Whatever He does
as long as something gets done
that's civilized, righteous, and shines like one
from star to star, It's just space and time
and his actions won't be in place of mine
You see, wisdom is personal
like every verse from the curse to the jewel
whether it's rehearsed or I'm just breakin' food
and the mic is a tool
To break and rewrite the rules
From my first day to my last night
And with my lights out,
and my weapons through
You can rest assured that I'll be rest assured
that the best of my works
Have worked
and laid a foundation
Now, that's a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
And you could sing New York City
You could sing (You should sing)
You could say, matter of fact,
You can say I'm workin' on a vacation
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
You could say (You could say)
(Right Now)
You could say and be true right now (right here)
You should say (You could say)
(Jay Live)
You could say (You could say)
You can say I'm workin' on your vacation

Thank you for this special gift you've given me
Listen to my words and my melody
I hope I can return the same thing
Listen to my, Listen to my melody
my melody
my melody
my melody
Listen to my melody
my melody
my melody
my melody, oh, oh
