Sum Of Us

Sparklin' extreme spinnage Watchin' your scene plummet If lyrics were green vomit My vocals would clean stomachs Addicts wean from it Where dreams and green run it The faces on money change like the host on Teen Summit I'm close to being done with this industry's cream driven Supreme livin', seein' more demons than Gene Simmons And mean fibbin' actors be adlibbin' Fakin' the funk and some of us naturally had rhythm Some of us act like they had women Gats in the abdomen back when the fact is them cats They didn't have nuttin' For certain I'm sure it's fiction but for some The purest diction Insures their jurisdiction I'm kicking it up a level trying to stay in the red Some stay in the bed, zombie Like the Day of the Dead With decay in the head Playin' instead of stayin' ahead Steadily portrayin' celebs, delayin' the inevitable When some come round They run down when they touch ground They climb up the structures unsound Some of you like the way my words caress tracks While some of these politicians secretly suppress facts [Chorus: x2] [Both] I'm sayin' through songs I write My wrongs I right If you want to fight the power Get the power to fight 'Cause some of us judge without knowing the man's inner And some of us find fault in the sin and not the sinner Influential ideas Push pressure on my peers That's why most of these brothers have short term careers You appear to be what's happenin' One a year you crackin' One hitter quitter now you missin' in action With no satisfaction from the streets I only hear foolishness when you speak I repeat, my predecessor's endeavor with pleasure Lock and load, explode and come better Hopin' that generation X Be more wicked with the flex And not so quick to cash a check And disrespect, talkin' guns and s*x Guns and death, but end up gettin' laid to rest At your request You're at the end of your line Out of your mind Idle women, weed and wine And shells for your nine The blind lead the blind Time after time When you rhyme for the shine [Chorus: x2] Yo, I'm tellin' you to rebel But dude, if you stale The 2na can tell Either you're comin' to the party or you truant as hell Politicians ain't got no problem puttin' you in the cell It's like we rolled up a snowball and threw it in hell See some of us are looted with mail and suited to swell But still blind like you're fluent in Braille Yo, I never can tell uh, why some make it or fail Speak it and spell overcome and still prevail We ripple the water frequently Blink if we show delinquency, please Human frequencies Have been diseased, A breeze ain't what I'm feelin' Healin' is essential Mental aggravation shows you what we've been through Yo, sign of the times influence the way I rhyme, man Pick up a nine and put down your picket sign, man Your life is worth way more than just some diamonds Without bling I still gleam Glisten and shine, man [Chorus: x2] --- Sum of Us - Jurassic 5
