[00:17.75][Verse 1: Q-Tip]
[00:18.07] The taste of nuthin, this does somethin
[00:20.25] Mom's got no back, says I'm frontin
[00:22.44] Call me Smiley, cuz I'm wiley
[00:24.63] Living life like the life of Riley
[00:26.82] Smokin' blunts with a boy named Bud
[00:29.01] We cough up your lungs, cough up your cud
[00:31.19] Put out fires, with a 40, ounce of water
[00:34.32] You know you oughta
[00:35.57] Dance to this, the girl you kiss
[00:37.76] I like fried foods, especially fish
[00:39.94] Afrocentric, I'm electric
[00:42.13] Socialistic and eccentric
[00:44.32] Body's healthy, mind is wealthy
[00:46.51] Thoughts, they flow, that will propel me
[00:48.69] To be a Native, get creative
[00:50.88] Original and designative
[00:53.07] Listen to the line that's playin'
[00:55.25] Listen hard to what Q's sayin'
[00:57.44] Politicians are magicians
[00:59.94] Make your vote, they hope your wishin
[01:01.82] Ambiguous words, senseless verbs
[01:04.32] They all amount to crap that's heard
[01:06.51] Violent hip hop, money flip flops
[01:08.69] Promoters won't book, but it still rocks
[01:11.19] I'm a Zulu, yes, a true blue
[01:13.07] Red Alert is with the poo-poo
[01:15.26] Ozone layer, loses flava
[01:17.44] Here's the edge that you will savor
[01:54.63][Verse 2: Q-Tip]
[01:54.94] With expressions and I'm guessin
[01:57.13] 19 years is a youthful lesson
[01:59.32] Fallin skies babe, open eyes babe
[02:01.82] Can't you see what lays inside babe
[02:04.00] Makin mentions on this tension
[02:05.88] Rhythmic lovin, my profession
[02:08.07] Hips, they gyrate, scripts I narrate
[02:10.26] No banana, I ain't a primate
[02:12.76] Ain't no soul glo, just an afro
[02:14.94] The head is bred to let the thoughts grow
[02:17.13] Quest together, to lands of never
[02:19.32] Sleet and snow and storms can't sever
[02:21.51] Tribe is growin, never know when
[02:23.69] For this time, six necks may show in
[02:25.88] Dialogues have been accepted
[02:28.07] Negatives have been rejected
[02:30.26] That's the music, negro music
[02:32.44] Is here for all, so you must choose it
[02:34.63] Phonies fondle, watch it throttle
[02:36.82] 3-6-5 straight out the bottle
[02:39.01] Bustin caps, finger snaps
[02:41.19] I prefer the second for ghetto tracks
[02:43.38] Phife, Jarobi, Ali told me
[02:45.57] Get the force like Wan Kenobi
[02:48.07] Force his teachin, beats are screechin
[02:49.94] Poly plateaus, we aim for reachin
[02:52.13] Tribalization, freaks the nation
[02:54.63] A mass of peers in celebration
[02:56.82] Hopes been real high, since the knee high
[02:59.01] Days of youth, feelin good and real spry
[03:01.19] Avid combos, hear those bongos
[03:03.38] Boom cacka boom, that's how they go
[03:05.57] We ain't nomads, but we real glad
[03:07.76] Hip hop slams through the nineties, no fad
[03:09.94] As a rhythm, have been given
[03:12.13] Hurry up, become, we breakin out, out
[03:15.25][Outro: Ali Shaheed Muhammad]
[03:15.57] With a rhythmic instinction to be able to travel
[03:17.75] Beyond existing forces of life
[03:19.94] Basically, that Tribal
[03:21.50] And if you wanna get the rhythm
[03:22.75] Then you have to join a Tribe
[03:24.01] Word, peace
