Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
[Verse 2]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
[Verse 3]
Keep time with the rhythm
Go, go
And keep time with the rhythm
Go, go
Keep time with the rhythm
I'ma let you know
You best be prepared
'Cause it's your boy George
[Verse 4]
Spread it smooth on my page like a brush
Illustrate your mind like paint without placing a touch
Keep it to a constant beat for those who fuss
Even to a bumpin' beat so those can bust
Even to them riders bumpin' out them trunks
To all them low keys getting pleased off that funky stuff
We doing this anyhow anyway
Jamming it more louder every time and every day
[Verse 5]
Shit, my life don't end if these records don't spin
We the new school of Nesians, we know when there's freshmen
A.K.A. safe investment, home is best when
We're supporting our own 'cause their quality tested
I keep time with the rhythm for those who never had none
Whenever we riding the beat, you're calling shotgun
Formidable stanza's, eloquence enhances, charismatically candid
You know how we handle it
[Verse 6]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
[Verse 7]
Keep time with the rhythm
Go, go
And keep time with the rhythm
Go, go
Keep time with the rhythm
I'ma let you know
You best be prepared
'Cause it's your boy
[Verse 8]
Continuous flow smooth like a dial tone
Some call it a gift, I call it a milestone
Ain't never heard me spit in a mild like tone
Untouchable when I'm in my zone
You will never know 'cause I'm guile when I roam
It ain't 'bout what you heard, it's what you've been told
With every rhythm, I rhyme, I spit rhythm in rhyme
Don't lose the rhythm, keep the rhythm when I rhyme
[Verse 9]
And as I dust it off, as I only take a second
As I shift my attention just to serve another lesson
As I stroll with the bounce, roll with the flow
Lose my sense unannounced, rhythm takes control
So keep time with the rhythm 'cause you already been told
Got the same to deliver like savoring old
So keep time with the rhythm 'cause the rhythm is the bass
The bass is the treble, the treble tremors up the place
[Verse 10]
Concentration
Keep the rhythm
Concentration
Keep the rhythm
[Verse 11]
I flow in the global cipher with the mic in hand
As Mos Def defined, I'm the traveling man
The system could never be able to comprehend
The life of a musician ain't driven like vision, open
Living on the edge of the beat where the baseline sits
They say pay my dues, but first who gonna pay my rent?
These words are testimony of my life lived
And the score of dreams after realizing what the price is
[Verse 12]
Rhythm and I go together like apple and pie
Whenever I spit, ignite mics to feed the fire
So feel the burn of the heat before the flame expires
A simple drum beat is all that I require
I got rhythm, got a beat now we ready to go
Ain't got a clue, son (Old, let him know)
With every rhythm that's rhymed, we spit rhythm in rhyme
You didn't lose the rhythm, kept the rhythm when we rhymed
[Verse 13]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
[Verse 14]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
[Verse 15]
Keep time with the rhythm
We rhyme over rhythm
Recite revolutionary type visions
Enough for the mental prisons
We endeavor for melodic living
So keep your mind on the rhythm
