Thought Process - Goodie Mob[00:00:01]
Let me get a chop at this lumber niggas[00:00:12]
From da down underground[00:00:14]
Are hangin' around the A-Town[00:00:15]
Lookin' for a come up workin' from 9 to 5[00:00:17]
Just to get some change so T-Mo can stay alive[00:00:19]
Not greedy or living' lavish yet[00:00:22]
But you can bet that when I do[00:00:23]
Nobody from my crew will I forget[00:00:25]
And if I start to get large and come up on some change[00:00:27]
I won't change everybody know they down[00:00:30]
It's not the same everyday life can be different[00:00:32]
These laws got me ready to ball[00:00:35]
Cause I fall a victim so I still be slanging them fat pillows[00:00:36]
To make 'em meet each and[00:00:39]
Every day as I comb my city streets[00:00:40]
Sometimes I wish I never had been apart of this mess[00:00:42]
Cause the system got us f**ked up[00:00:45]
It put us to the test women and men if you black you in[00:00:47]
Food for the soul listen to[00:00:50]
What I tell you it don't matter[00:00:52]
Young or old it's time we loc' up and do like we suppose[00:00:54]
We killin' each other over this bullshit and some clothes[00:00:57]
We're trapped off in this world and[00:01:00]
Society with no place else to go[00:01:01]
So how U feel [00:01:04]
Frustrated irritated sometimes[00:01:05]
I don't know myself I be too numb[00:01:08]
To feel something sometimes so I dig deep [00:01:11]
Get in the Cherokee[00:01:14]
Let my mind fly free into the wilderness[00:01:15]
So I can get this shit off my[00:01:18]
Mind[00:01:20]
That's why I be smokin' that dank sometimes [00:01:21]
It keeps me from snappin'[00:01:23]
Keeps me calm keeps my mind open [00:01:25]
Keeps me fond of what I gots to do[00:01:27]
Off in the studio to get my old burd back[00:01:30]
On her feet and my little[00:01:33]
Bro'[00:01:34]
In Statesboro and my little 'cause Mark Twain all my[00:01:35]
Folks that hang with me when[00:01:38]
I was out in the trap or when I was goin'[00:01:40]
Thru one of our episodes only god knows [00:01:42]
Whut I go thru so I get down[00:01:44]
On my knees sometimes I come home too high to pray [00:01:46]
But I get on my bed[00:01:49]
Lay on my back and meditate anyway [00:01:51]
In the ceilings the four walls [00:01:53]
It's[00:01:55]
Like cell therapy I got nothing to do[00:01:55]
But write about my L-I-F-E put it[00:01:57]
Down on paper So whut chu feel [00:01:59]
I live for today motherf**k another hour it might be sour[00:02:04]
Never know my day so I'm prayin' in the shower[00:02:07]
Look up and thank the Lord for forgiveness a witness to bad[00:02:10]
I'm lookin' for good in the Southwest [00:02:12]
God bless my neighborhood[00:02:14]
It's people killin' in da street to eat[00:02:15]
Surviving the day is the only goat that I set[00:02:18]
Just to make it home I'm not alone[00:02:20]
Someone's out to get me when[00:02:22]
I haven't done shit wrong[00:02:24]
My head felt swoll mista couldn't see past my mouth[00:02:25]
What route did you take man[00:02:28]
Caught me by that loops of my pants[00:02:29]
Got me on the curb lettin' tha traffic pass me by[00:02:30]
No questions I said nothing[00:02:33]
Lookin' for tha mutant to be buckin'[00:02:34]
Tha law naw man Gipp show him my shit[00:02:36]
Close my mouth then I dip[00:02:38]
See to me G is a person who understand tha plan[00:02:40]
Can't make no moves[00:02:42]
When you in tha hands of tha man[00:02:43]
They got some new suites down Peachtree[00:02:45]
Left wing for tha Feds right wing for tha hardheads[00:02:47]
Makin' more deals than Buddy Folks made with Hartsfield[00:02:50]
Somebody don't want my face in tha place [00:02:53]
For 96 shit's slick[00:02:55]
Got me clean lookin' fresh dogs be scratchin' at my chest[00:02:55]
Under the order of who [00:02:59]
Guess who ain't non-iller than miller[00:03:00]
Wanna 1 2 your ass no more life[00:03:01]
What you gave was tha past[00:03:04]
'Cause ain't no future wanna millicamp your case[00:03:05]
Disgrace your face make it seem to be safe[00:03:08]
But ain't no place to run [00:03:10]
Sometimes I don't even know how I'm gon' eat[00:03:17]
'Bout twenty dollars away from being on the street[00:03:19]
Shit you might see a nigga on tv[00:03:21]
But hell it's almost like I'm rappin' for free[00:03:24]
That little money be gone got dammit I'm grown[00:03:26]
Gotta help keep the heat and tights on[00:03:29]
It would be nice to have mo'[00:03:32]
But I kinda like being po'[00:03:33]
At least I know what my friends here fo'[00:03:35]
I wanna lie to you sometimes but I can't[00:03:37]
I wanna tell you that it's all good but it ain't[00:03:39]
It's nigga's hurtin' and uncertain[00:03:42]
'Bout if they gon' make it or not[00:03:43]
That's why we got nigga's killing[00:03:46]
Feelin like they coming up off a little dope they sold[00:03:47]
You can get some gold but we won't make it as a whole[00:03:50]
Cause without you there'd be no me[00:03:53]
And without no unity there will never be any happiness[00:03:54]
You could smoke a pound of sess[00:03:57]
And it still won't relieve yo' stress[00:04:00]
God bless my thought process[00:04:02]
The thought process [00:04:05]
Now as an Outkast I was born wasn't warned of the harm[00:04:07]
That would come to meet me like Met Life but yet life[00:04:10]
Done sent me through a lot of up's[00:04:13]
And down like it ain't nothing'[00:04:15]
Like elevators but I ain't the one that's pushin' the buttons[00:04:17]
I got off at the 13th floor when they told me that it wasn't one[00:04:18]
They said it skipped from 12 to 14[00:04:21]
Still smoking still drinking no I'm sittin' on the Lincoln[00:04:23]
4 A M thinkin' that in reality the world is like a ball full of playas[00:04:27]
We trapped off in this maze with walls made of layers[00:04:31]
And only prayers is the tightest game that you can have[00:04:33]
The devil's takin' a swing that might explain the broken glass[00:04:36]
But my crystal ball see the pistol fall to the wayside[00:04:38]
Nobody would die in cops and robbers[00:04:40]
When we used to play right[00:04:42]
Huh the only thang we feared was Williams Wayne[00:04:44]
Never though about hittin' licks or slangin' caine[00:04:46]
Didn't think I'd be the one to give in to abortion[00:04:49]
Label me murder because my ass is scorchin'[00:04:51]
Hot from the glock that sits under my seat[00:04:54]
Yeah it's real f**ked up that my floks come to get me[00:04:56]
And it's like dat yeah and it's like dem[00:04:59]
