Paroles
It's my time to shine now
I got the floor now, okay?
I'mma take control
A lot, a lot of ****
A lot of **** out here don't believe that
You know, what I say is worth, you know
I don't know, I guess my weight in gold
Even though I am who I am and I stay where I stay
You know, it don't make one motherfuckin' difference
Cause I'mma bring it to you the same way another **** bring it to you
I'm just as hungry as you
You know what I'm sayin', even though
You know what, say after me
Even though I am who I am
(Even though I am who I am!)
I am
(I am!)
Somebody
(Somebody!)
You know what I'm sayin'?
And that's somebody gonna put a fuckin' brick in your head
You know what I'm sayin'?
Now just check it out
Don't believe for a second a man runnin' ain't
A man gunnin' for you, true
Indeed, love is worth more than gold
But fear's equally sold to counterparts and enemies
You feel me?
Non-believers try another theory
But when you fail it's apparent that you didn't hear me
Ha, you feel me?
Take a second, fuck a first impression
We all realize longevity's a dangerous weapon
Wait a minute, are we forgettin' we are MC's?
Go put two to your cranium often test me
I'mma let it go, why?
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
It don't get much straighter than this
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
Love got me positive
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
You're motherfuckin' right, son
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
Black man, black woman, comin' together
For love, life, pleasure
Guess again when it's back to community chess again
Government cheese startin' to taste fresh again
Ain't it? Nah, for real, ain't it?
Who cares if the shit's tainted?
We die every second and got more where that came from, right?
Wrong, I ain't preachin'
Just releasin' information I would believe is dear to you
Now this love becomes fear to you
What? Your screw face got me thinkin' I ain't clear to you
Let me guess, you must have questions
First and foremost, who the fuck this **** think he testin'?
Follow me now
This situation's going down, I don't care
You will respect my name through love or fear
**** call me voice of reason, touch me, trust me
If I had a nickel for every time I'd be lucky
If I didn't jump a tax bracket
Bulletproof jackets don't come with warranty coverin' heat I practice
You feel me?
In particular I shine with the rhymes
Saukrates is the name
One more time, if you forgot
I'mma let it go, why?
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
It don't get much straighter than this
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
Love got me positive
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
This idealistic speech got y'all all on crutches
I am the new ambassador for rap lords
If I'm speakin' out of turn, it's what you asked for
Question from me to you, what would you rap for?
If you prefer the fast life, runnin' from task force
Hmmm, think about it, but never doubt it
I am a role model livin' with it, never without it
My mental never gettin' clouded
Though I admit in the beginnin' it was crowded
So now I spit in the ears of those who listen
Catholic, Jewish, Muslim and Christian
And atheists combine my system
Voltron with the ism comin' with one wisdom
To never attack, react to those who piss 'em
Off, do what you ought, but realize the cost
Cause time is money, people, and we are runnin' short
Attempted to abort procedure, but if I leave
The minorities picket beat, Socks, we need ya
Black man to forbidden diva
I'm transmittin' on your AM, FM and shortwave receiver
Try to tune out, even the negative cool out
Eviction notice on the door, "Vigorous, move out!"
Before I let it go, son
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
It don't get much straighter than this
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
Cause love got me positive
(Can't touch us, can't touch us!)
Image is nothin' when I come bustin'
Love may become fear, why?
Because I am
(I am!)
Somebody
(Somebody!)
Circle!
Zoo!
You better look in the mirror, baby
And tell me what the ugly shit you see back there, baby
Capitol Hill
Tell me what you see in the mirror
A sore ass, pussy ass motherfucker
