[Mr. Man verse] |
|
S.O.S. |
|
Breaker breaker 1-9 maydey |
|
Surviving off of pennies until my next payday |
|
All I ever wanted was a real nice lady |
|
A clean pair of socks |
|
And some fish for my gravy |
|
But all I get is rice |
|
Which will have to suffice |
|
Coz I always used to think I didn't need no advice |
|
So I never ever really tried to heed no advice |
|
But in the end we all pay the price |
|
So let's get to the point (point point) |
|
Of the whole situation |
|
So many obstacles |
|
So many confronations |
|
But still I'm focused on reaching every station |
|
Coz destiny is my destination |
|
I came to make it happen |
|
Instead of wasting time I don't got |
|
The time is now |
|
Coz I only got one shot |
|
Navigating through the schemes |
|
And the intricate plots |
|
Coz you and I is all we got |
|
Lets make it happen |

[Lee Majors verse] |
|
Why |
|
Why is the world round |
|
Why do the suckas bite |
|
Why do the freaks come out at night |
|
Why they paint Jesus white |
|
I sit and wonder why |
|
We breakin hip hop laws |
|
Doing videos in houses that we know aint yours |
|
Representing projects |
|
Man them shits aint yours (check your lease) |
|
What I release I'll make you shit in your draws |
|
Well then |
|
Hear what I say (OK) |
|
Your begin for an easy way |
|
Well I don't know (well I dont know) |
|
Oh yes I don't know |
|
Yo light |
|
Let me let these niggas know |
|
Its like all I ever wanted was a girl with |
|
Respect and a 3rd eye |
|
DKNY aint what makes you fly |
|
Lights in my face |
|
Government in my pocket |
|
Its hard to be a prophet and still make a profit |

[Mos Def] |
|
I swing with phat cats to smack tracks over phat raps |
|
It's all of that we tread the BK back road (brooklyn) |
|
'96 about to put it on |
|
Hey baby palm |
|
Put a quarter upon the needle head |
|
To hold it still while I lace up the verbal threat |
|
Now watch me sew shit up |
|
Mos def in your spot about to blow shit up |
|
See i've been rhyming since when I was growing up |
|
That's why I say that shit that |
|
Make the party open up |
|
Like the sky |
|
Plus my voice is fly |
|
I roll with dave mase |
|
And wonder why |
|
I rock it from Medina green on to the strong i-i |
|
Land on my feet coz im a cool cat |
|
Make the kids around my way say |
|
How you do that |
|
Be careful what you say coz aint no takebacks |
|
And if you makin' moves |
|
Don't fake jacks |
|
Perhaps that's the sound when you smack the drum skin |
|
Whenever yall want to jump in |
|
Man I don't want the landlord kicking my door in |
|
You tired of getting high but you |
|
Never know when |
|
And fuck around and get low again |
|
But you can always be certain my friend |
|
How your low tide is always gonna come in |
|
It's like that |
|
So check it on out yall |
