[00:09.03]This song does not contain explicit lyrics, but what it does contain
[00:13.80]Is an udesired element. this element is known as the basehead, the
[00:18.63]Lowest of lowest of all elements that exist. and the sad thing is,
[00:23.28]This particular element... is me brudda!
[00:26.34]Brother, brother oh brother of mine
[00:28.44]We used to be down as partners in crime
[00:30.66]From our parents our name was forged
[00:32.91]I was the beaver, you curious george
[00:35.04]Wanted to dispose of this and that
[00:37.17]But curiosity had killed the cat
[00:39.51]At this age no wonder it was read
[00:41.67]But this was the fate that you were fed
[00:43.83]Throughout high school our minds we'd waste
[00:46.02]High off all the cheeba that we could taste
[00:48.30]Soon you had converted to nasal sports
[00:50.58]Every five minutes shit you'd snort
[00:52.71]Told me that you needed a stronger fix
[00:54.87]Stepped to the crack scene in '86
[00:57.03]Unlike the other drugs where you had control
[00:59.19]This substance had engulfed your body and soul
[01:01.50]Now from me you lost all respect
[01:03.72]Said you need to put that shit in check
[01:05.91]Wanted me to believe that you had tried
[01:07.86]But your mind and the craving had coincided
[01:09.87]Said there was a voice inside you that talked
[01:12.12]Which said you shouldn't stop but continue to walk
[01:14.52]Now the brother who could handle any drug
[01:16.95]Had just found the one that could pull his plug
[01:18.63](background:)
[01:18.87](ya don't stop, ya don't, ya don't stop)
[01:19.62](ya don't stop, the body rock)
[01:20.22]Dove:
[01:20.31]"yo, bro, got another rock for your hiking boots"
[01:22.56]"gonna make you scream and loop three loops"
[01:24.75]"gonna take you far on a freeway, okay"
[01:27.93]Remember that day? slipped me a smile for a 20 crack vial
[01:31.29]Guess what? time to collect, correct
[01:33.51]Don't have a dime? it's payback time, payback time
[01:36.60]"don't cry the blues 'cause i got bad news"
[01:38.79]"should i stab ya? should i bite ya? should i use my tools?"
[01:41.22]No, i got another way to earn my defeat, ah!
[01:43.74](slam the child on the hard concrete)
[01:45.57](make the bass come out so clear)

[02:03.27]Brother, brother, stupid brother of mine
[02:05.34]Started getting high at the age of nine
[02:07.62]Now at twenty-one you're lower than low
[02:09.84]Nowhere to turn, nowhere to go
[02:11.82]My dividends and wares started to disappear
[02:14.25]Where it ended up, i had an idea
[02:16.50]Barking you with the quickness, reversed intent
[02:18.60]Instead went to pop and gave him the print
[02:20.76]Now pop grew tired of being a mouse
[02:23.04]Finally told you to get the hell outta the house
[02:25.23]From there a mother figure came into play
[02:27.09]Claimed for you she saw a better day
[02:29.52]Now mom was a product of christ's rebirth
[02:31.86]Thought the only chance was to go to church
[02:34.08]Quitting this stuff you had tried before
[02:36.33]This time you claimed you'd really score
[02:38.43]Something i had to see to believe
[02:40.62]Put on my suit and to church i weaved
[02:44.79]Preacher (squirrel):
[02:45.18]My, my, my. what happened to the people? the people who used to care
[02:48.39]About what took place in the world today? i've been summoned here
[02:52.41]Today to reach the people who still can be reached, to save the people
[02:57.63]Who still can be saved. can i get an amen? can i get an amen?
[03:00.33]Hit me! forgive us. said it's taking over. taking over the world. all
[03:06.48]It's doing is taking over. where them crackers at? them crackers that
[03:08.82]They serve, where they at?
[03:09.21]Dove and mikey roads (in background as choir):
[03:10.20]Said evil's taking over
[03:10.80]Said evil's taking over
[03:11.40]Said evil's taking over, evil's taking over
[03:13.35]The lord's gonna forgive us, the lord's gonna forgive us, lord
[03:20.64]Said the lord's gonna forgive us
[03:22.47]The lord's gonna forgive us
[03:23.13]Pos:
[03:23.22]Bitch, didn't believe a lick
[03:23.76]To this fool fell off, well that would stick
[03:27.27]Soon you reach your front of calm
[03:29.25]Walked round by rehearsing psalms
[03:31.44]Then you smiled with the funky frown
[03:33.60]What do you know, the voice is back in town
[03:35.79]Mom would say it would soon go away
[03:37.95]You and i knew it was here to stay
[03:40.05]But the man helped you when you helped yourself
[03:42.33]That meant going to rehab for your health
[03:44.52]Finally it went and blew your cork
[03:46.50]Heard you moved to the comfortable streets of new york
[03:48.90]And when my friends see me and come and ask
[03:50.76]"yo, where's your brother at?"
[03:52.05]I'll be the first to splash
[03:53.25]"yo, he's a basehead"
