Lyrics

Warnin'
Some of y'all may think that this next
Track is a little risky for a Luther joint
But all you gotta do is listen to get it
Get it right
Alright y'all, let's start from number one (yeah)
And get down (mm, yeah), 'til it's done
Now bust this sketch as I stretch this mar'
Too live to drive, so we put it in park
With Luther, hopin' that you feelin' is groove
Get you open on the instrumental, one-two, one-two
And I say jottin' down the lines like the dots on the parkway
My auntie Eloise says stay on your Q's and P's
And to the days of D's, I'm doin' what I please
Ease on down, like the road
Dependin' on the mood, definitely in the mode
And you can catch a yellow brick
You need to run and tell yo' clique
That the female in town is bringin' it
Now listen, mission impossible (yeah)
Keep it general like the hostile
Shake, rattle, and roll, the rock will chill
The Free to the C-I-S-E, do
Let's get this thing to work
(Mm, mm, we gettin' it right)
There's no reason to wait
The time is now to start
(Uh, uh, we gettin' it right)
We all coulda use the change
Do it 'til we get it, get it right (yeah)
'Til we get it
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
Do it 'til we get it
Stay with it and get it right (yeah, yeah)
Do it 'til we get it
Never stop, Luther, take it to the top (oh, yeah), do it 'til we get it
Take the time and get it right (yeah)
Get all up in your back and down your spine
Gotta keep it on track like the A train line
To the junction, out in Brooklyn, what's your function?
Keep you lookin', once again, as I punch in
Those lines like the SP-1200 (yeah)
Precise on the mic, look what we done did
Top shotter, the party starter, rock it
And I got first dibs on the dark-skinned kid
And I know just how to do
(Mm, mm, we gettin' it right)
To make it really nice
There's no mystery to it
(Uh, uh, we gettin' it right)
Do it 'til you get it right
Do it 'til we get it, get it right
'Til we get it
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
Do it 'til we get it
Stay with it and get it right (yeah)
Do it 'til we get it
Never stop, Luther; take it to the top
Do it 'til we get it
Take the time and get it right
Feels so good to get it (get it), yeah
It's so good to get it (get it)
Oh, and get it right
Feels so good to get it (get it)
It's so good to get it (get it)
Ooh, get it right
And oh, don't give up now
We can make it, we can take it right to the top
Come on, and never stop
Oh, and let's reach for the sky
And if we keep believin' we can never go too high
Why don't we give it a try?
Come on and keep reachin' up
Yeah, and don't you worry
No, you won't use up your stuff
No way to get enough
Do it 'til we get it right
And even if it takes 'til mornin' 'til way into night
We got to
Do it 'til we get it, get it right
'Til we get it
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
Do it 'til we get it
Stay with it and get it right (get it, get it, get it, get it, oh)
Do it 'til we get it
Never stop, Luther, take it to the top
Do it 'til we get it
Take the time and get it right
(Oh, yeah) 'til we get it
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
Do it 'til we get it
Stay with it and get it right
Do it 'til we get it
Never stop, Luther, take it to the top (yeah, yeah, yeah)
Do it 'til we get it
Take the time and get it right
How y'all feelin' tonight? Better hold on tight
Throw your hands in the air if you gettin' it right
What we got you like, but it's not quite
Your regular jam, Luther and Precise (now, now)
How y'all feelin' tonight? Better hold on tight
Throw your hands in the air if you gettin' it right
What we got you like, but it's not quite
Your regular jam, Luther and Precise
It feels so good to get it (get it)
It's so good to get it (get it)
Oh, and get it right
Feels so good to get it (get it)
Oh, it's so good to get it (get it)
Oh, and get it right
It's so good to get it (get it)
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
It's so good to get it (do it 'til we get it)
Stay with it and get it right
Feels so good to get it (get it, do it 'til we get it)
Never stop, Luther, take it to the top
Do it 'til we get it (do it 'til we get it, get it)
Take the time and get it right
Do it 'til we, get it
Ain't no doubt, Precise is gonna turn it out
Do it 'til we get it (get it)
Stay with it and get it right
Do it 'til we get it (get it)
Never stop, Luther, take it to the top
Do it 'til we get it (get it)
Take the time and get it right
Get it, get it, yeah
