| [00:00.18] |
Uh, uh, mmm, mmm? mmm? yup, yeah, uh |
| [00:08.91] |
Those who front an' don't really want trouble |
| [00:10.68] |
Step to the side like an S1W |
| [00:13.11] |
The NW north of NWA's place of origin |
| [00:16.41] |
Originators of the first general strike |
| [00:18.54] |
Roots of our labor is thick |
| [00:19.80] |
Still awaiting the fruits of our labor to get higher than a 747 jet |
| [00:23.73] |
But when we say, "now," they say, "not yet" |
| [00:26.25] |
They don't feel it, but give it respect |
| [00:28.20] |
There's no hard feelings more paper to collect |
| [00:30.27] |
Though I can care less |
| [00:31.44] |
Family is fed, clothes on they back, shelter over head |
| [00:34.74] |
When debts climb higher than paychecks can reach |
| [00:36.93] |
Whoever asks next for a free CD will catch a bad one |
| [00:39.78] |
Trust this, believe you, me |
| [00:41.10] |
Probably tens of thousands of people just like me in a town, in a town |
| [00:45.48] |
In a town not big enough for ego to breath |
| [00:47.64] |
You plead unity but never build the bridges between |
| [00:49.83] |
And if you travel to the next town |
| [00:51.54] |
You might find that shit's surprising |
| [00:53.10] |
They all act just like us |
| [00:54.48] |
Carrying the legacy of people divided |
| [00:56.58] |
Plagued by infighting and tight knit surviving |
| [00:58.80] |
People on the outside look and write about it |
| [01:00.93] |
Choose the safe route to fit they own palate |
| [01:03.36] |
Ignore the rest at the same time the rest get restless |
| [01:05.88] |
And blame it on the other's success |
| [01:07.26] |
It gets twisted |
| [01:08.10] |
Crab in a barrel existence |
| [01:09.57] |
Where no amount of noise make the powerful listen |
| [01:11.85] |
Power's within us all, pistols are drawn |
| [01:13.83] |
We about to shine like Mr. Sinister's arm |
| [01:16.11] |
And the songs that they sold to the devils are gone |
| [01:18.21] |
We all vagabonds, home is whatever we stand upon |
| [01:20.97] |
Take a picture, they'll last longer |
| [01:22.80] |
I think they forgot that songs last forever |
| [01:24.87] |
It's a whole lot of cheddar at the top now |
| [01:27.18] |
**** tryna climb up, let's bring the top down |
| [01:33.21] |
Bring it down, bring it, bring it down, down down, bring it down, let's bring it down, ah |
