Testo Word Play - A Tribe Called Quest
Testo della canzone Word Play (A Tribe Called Quest), tratta dall'album Beats, Rhymes & Life
Uh, one, two, whatcha wanna do
Three, four, 'cause we gonna give you more
Five, six, and we ain't the tricks
Seven, eight, and we got it straight
Nine, ten, 'cause we make it blend
11, 12, never ever goin' for self
Tribe Called Quest situation, check it out
Power, people really get caught up with this
On different levels power controls your life
Money, the companion of the first
Some people tend to worship and we know this ain't right
Attitude (attitude) that's how I get my point across
You can't call yourself a emcee if you know that you're soft
Agressive is how the stage is approached, I burn emcees like toast
'Cause I'm the host with the most
Illin' (illin') that's what you do when you're assin'
Whether it be you or all up in your fashion
Cashin', it turned your peoples corrupt
It's six o'clock, girl, you gotta get your weight up
Sex (sex) either a man or a woman
This is gender, but when lovers get down
Froggin' when niggas try to play roles
But when they really need to put that shit background
Miserable (miserable) is what your whole crew will be
If you're not original and you show no strategy
Heavenly is how the track tends to flow
And if you don't know, tell 'em Diggy said so
We livin' this 'cause it's deep in our bones
A Tribe Called Quest with this hip-hop jones
So sit and analyze the lyrical spray
'Cause all it really is is word play (word play, word)
Willie that's what I kick to get this millie on a lilly
Now, I'm baggin' dimes like Chilli
Stress (stress) that's what I always go through
'Cause it's survival of the fittest on the one-nine-two
Knowledge, when the mind accept facts
On this plane of livin', knowledge be the key, black
Understandin', gettin' a grip on what's revealed
When shit be real, can't give understandin' back
Analyze that's what I do to emcees
That be talkin' 'bout they this and that, money please
Ego, I'm on my own jock skill
'Cause if I don't say I'm the best, tell me who the hell will
Cheeba smoke y'all, that's what I use to get high
When I'm in a rut and I don't know why
Try, yo try again my friend
'Cause you can't see this emcee representin' Linden
Freestyle (freestyle) a true emcee trait
And when you do it ill, niggas respect it as great
Yo, I gotta (I gotta)
We livin' this 'cause it's deep in our bones
A Tribe Called Quest with the hip-hop jones
So sit and analyze the lyrical spray
'Cause all it really is is word play (word play)
