Song | Wait Up |
Artist | Q-Tip |
Album | Amplified |
We on a brand new page. Millennium days, | |
desperation on the streets gotta find a new way | |
Keep the mics and choke holds. The saga unfolds | |
Machavellian approaches executed by the coach | |
I'm in these streets like a ghost | |
The air-jettin' artist | |
To the love, I hit 'em right plus I hit the hardest, man | |
I got a whole new approach for the rhymin' | |
You cherry cats slide, I'm holdin out for the Heisman | |
Uh! You play the rappin' roll | |
I take the rap and sold, | |
and intertwine it wit' mine and turn a half to whole | |
I'm just a genie in a Jack bottle | |
Them fake ballin'-ass cats is just a wack model | |
This joint knocks wit' the force of a gat throttle | |
I live by 'You put it out, we get it back' motto | |
Hey. But who around but just your average reproduction, love | |
Rap is gettin' lose so all the ice is screamin' 'Thug' | |
What the hell is wrong? I'm askin' in this song | |
One time I smoked hash out of the hippies' bong | |
One of us is goin' laid 'cause I ain't gettin' played | |
I leave you right inside that shitty-ass bed you made | |
and walk along chuggin' Baller's Brains, rockin' rings | |
and things and just waitin' for white rains | |
I got the drive, dog. I hope the dogs' ready | |
My mentality on dime chicks is stay sweaty | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";It's the Ummah for all time.";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";The Ummah forevea!";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";GET YOUR WAAAIIIIIIIIIIT...";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";..UP! UP! UP! UP! Yo!"; ) wait up. | |
You wanna shoot dice or wanna shoot rounds? | |
Wanna sell rhymes or wanna sell pounds? | |
The decision is yours. I'd rather see tours, | |
get chicks wit' ghetto shit fallin' out they drawers | |
My team stay posted. They stay roasted | |
Niggas who all in it had a hard knock livin' | |
Administra, rhyme minista, illa treasura | |
You didn't know that your man was a legend, huh? | |
Embonishment for the both of you | |
I hit the road and I take my whole fuckin' crew | |
cause I'm a Queens cat. (";True.";) To the G's cat. (";True.";) | |
Gettin' money for more than one needs cat. (";Aiiight, c'mon.";) | |
Condition never peers and (";Take it home, kid.";) mind stands out | |
From Seattle to South Beach my joint: grand clout | |
It's the street commentator, providin' you wit' data | |
on how to live unique and it's really not neat. We gotta... | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";Brand new shit, huh.";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";GET YOUR WAAAIIIIIIIIIIT...";) wait up. | |
Wait up. Your wait up. Wait up. | |
Get your (";..UP! UP! UP! YEAH! HA-HAA...";) wait up. | |
And all the fellas go, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah.' | |
And all my ladies go, 'Uh, uh, uh.' | |
And all the fellas go, 'Yeah, yeah, yeah.' | |
And all the ladies go, 'Uh, uh, uh.' | |
Fellas go, 'Where you at?' | |
Ladies go, 'Yo, come back!' | |
Fellas go...ladies go... | |
Fellas go...ladies...yo... | |
A mellow disposition even when it's pain | |
Your mental ammunition is faulty wit' a drain | |
I puts it down, Lord, Fuck a mic cord | |
Brother's out of his game so we can see tours | |
The innovator - your man still a hater | |
The Abstract imprint, it stays like a Smint | |
I got the masses cold, wigglin' and shakin' they ass | |
Ma, you betta get involved and do it real fast | |
(Beeping starts again but with instrumental backing it) |
