I'd like to dedicate this to all of the Creator's righteous children

I have some food in my bag for you

Not that edible food, the food you eat?

No, I have some food for thought

Since knowledge is infinite

It has infinitely fell on me, so um

It was a stormy night

You know, the kind where the lightnin' strikes

And I was hangin' out with some of my artsy friends

Ooh, wee ooh, wee ooh

The night was long, the night went on

People coolin' out until the break of dawn

Incense was burnin' so I'm feelin' right, aight

See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit

My granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you

And that's why I do what I do

My soul flies free like a willow tree

Doo wee, doo wee, doo wee

And if you don't want to be down with me

You don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

You just don't want to be down

I have a hoe

And I take it everywhere I go

'Cause I'm plantin' seeds so I reaps what I sow (Ya know?), ya know

Oh, on and on, and on and on

My cypher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone

I can't control the soul flowin' in me

(Ooh wee) Ooh wee

See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit

My granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you

And that's why I do what I do

My soul flies free like a willow tree

Doo wee, doo wee, doo wee

And if you don't want to be down with me

You don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

You just don't want to be down

Oh my, my, my

Oh my, my, my

Oh my, my, my, ah

Oh my, my, my, my, my, my, my, oh, oh, oh

I picks my friends like I pick my fruit

My granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you

And that's why I do what I do

My soul flies free like a willow tree

Doo wee, doo wee, doo wee

And if you don't want to be down with me

You don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

Then you don't want to pick from my apple tree

And if you don't want to be down with me

You just don't want to be down

You just don't want to be down

Oh, you just don't want to be down

Down, down (Down), down

You just don't want to be down, oh

You just don't want to be down

Down, down (Mm), down

Down (Ooh), down (Ooh), down (Ooh), down (Ooh, ooh)

Down (Ooh), down (Mm), down (Mm), down (Ooh, ooh)

Down, down, down, down

To be down, oh, no, you just don't wanna be down
