Lyrics/Song Structure:
======================
---> Play Intro
---> Play Riff 1 over:
I'm taking it to the bridge and there's a different country
I'm bringing you a people I know deep down are funky
Oh yeah we dap we got the juice it's on tap
Never take the time to rewind all that weak crap
Here take it it's yours the gift is calling
The sunshine be falling our way first every morning
I'm a magician you see I'm christened with condition
Held over from a future world I've come to you so listen
---> Play Riff 2 over:
There's a place out in deep space
Where all the brothers chant and dance and rant
And shave their heads like Buddha
I'm a fly guy you know I'm smoother
Of course no remorse is left for all those loser crews
I do not care what you do I always screw up
But when I do it's nothing like you I wish you grew up
You're saying anything like promise to get clean
Won't kick half dead you're ***ed up in the head
---> Play Riff 3 over:
[Just] get him out of here, get him out of here
Get him out of here, he's making me sick
We push a sucker out, with much force and much clout
Didn't want to do it, that's not what we're about
But we got to have a limit, how low can you get it
Seems about time to change the subject and sing about
The wise eyed girl that makes me feel good
And never do I leave misunderstood
---> Play Chorus over:
***, you know I feel good true
Got a choice of what I'm gonna do it's like this
That, up (herb) is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat (mad cat), tell 'em again
***, I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're going to do it's like this
That, up is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat
---> Play Riff 1 over:
I'm rollin' slow no particular place to go nothing's changed
The more things stay the same the more it doesn't matter
To a latter day St. Bernard acting hard
But I throw down like a crazy retard
But what could make a man
Wanna walk around the schoolyard with his tool hard
What could make the switch to call a woman a bitch
It probably downed when you couldn't get a date to prom
And you were stuck with Beavis
---> Play Riff 2 over:
Let's leave us on a note of positivity, I'm saying this for
Levity, but if I leave it brief I call it brevity
I said I see the people rocking, which means there's no
Stopping the flow
And you can just tell 'em that you know
---> Play Riff 3 over:
Every night yeah we turnin' up, and comin' off live
Like a final 311 battle breaking idols
On the one you never heard before
You know the hard-core rockin' pumpin' the dance floor
Leave ya feet sore looking for the Micatin
You know the mic is deadly in the mood we in
Certified not fakin', cool like a Jamaican
Every time the enemy hear us they will be shakin'
---> Play Chorus over:
***, you know I feel good true
Got a choice of what I'm gonna do it's like this
That, up is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat, tell 'em again
***, I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're going to do it's like this
That, up is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat
