Examination Of What - Digable Planets[00:00:00]
One day while I was sipping some groove juice I realized that in the[00:00:00]
Span of time we're just babies it's all relative time is unreal[00:00:05]
We're just babies we're just babies man[00:00:10]
We're just babies we're just babies man[00:00:12]
We're just babies we're just babies man[00:00:15]
We're just babies we're just babies man[00:00:17]
Every man's a planet and the props are there to get it[00:00:20]
Insects roll together with the spirit in our orbit[00:00:23]
Life it comes goes and you do not punch a clock[00:00:26]
I don't take sh*t for granted I think of Scott la rock[00:00:28]
Also of tyrel and battles at the borders[00:00:31]
My cousins in the joint and the homeless gripping quarters[00:00:33]
The forests are all shrinking this deepens to my thinking[00:00:36]
Don't cover up the nappy be happy witcha kinking[00:00:38]
Dwelling yes you're Dwelling as the norm is itty bitty[00:00:41]
Figure eighty fifty for a smidgen of the city[00:00:44]
In the serengetti be ready for a box[00:00:46]
But beware of the shanks and the pistols and the glocks[00:00:49]
If your peoples don't getcha you still ain't off clean[00:00:51]
The politicians' mask is worse than hallowe'en[00:00:54]
I write the funky scripts so you know I got to kick 'em[00:00:56]
Now tell me who's the vices and tell me who's the victim[00:00:59]
So what is really what is really what[00:01:01]
If the funk don't move your butt[00:01:04]
And if the box don't make you hot[00:01:06]
And if the cats don't dig the raps[00:01:09]
If your life ain't got no spice[00:01:12]
Or if the guns just wreck your fun[00:01:14]
Or if some shouts ain't in the house[00:01:17]
Or if your crew ain't down with you[00:01:19]
Ladybug[00:01:21]
Peace this is mecca the ladybug and I'm saying though what is really[00:01:23]
What if I can't even get comfortable because the supreme court is[00:01:27]
Like all in my uterus[00:01:30]
Peace this is see know the doodlebug and I want to say what is what if[00:01:32]
You can't walk through your hood with Bert Ernie and sesame street[00:01:36]
Mossier trying to give the snuffleupagus[00:01:40]
My father taught me jazz all the peoples and the anthems[00:01:43]
Ate peanuts with the dizz and vibed with Lionel Hampton[00:01:45]
Now I'm swimming deep in the hip hop with eclectics[00:01:48]
Now do we gots the power or is it getting hectic[00:01:50]
Scribble swings the paddle at the mantel where I placed it[00:01:53]
Hip hop grew from roots but some emcees never traced it[00:01:56]
The old jacks buck wild and some babies bore their fists[00:01:58]
But the crew from outer space is here sh*t[00:02:01]
We grew up digging styles of the fabulous fifth Freddy[00:02:03]
And scoping out for days crazy legs and rocksteady[00:02:06]
Now bleach is in the laundry same old beats is handy[00:02:08]
The label may okay it but radio won't play it[00:02:11]
The censors are about so watch your mouth close your drapes[00:02:14]
The legs that's in the boots is on the corner watch your tape[00:02:16]
Making papes off the crust for money and for lust[00:02:19]
You're playing out the planets get slammed trust[00:02:21]
You think it see it run it and slam it[00:02:24]
They peep it hear it lynch it and ban it[00:02:26]
It just ain't the haps if they know they can't control it[00:02:29]
Your grass be in the joint but they licked it and rolled it[00:02:32]
So what I'm saying what[00:02:34]
What is really what is really what is really what[00:02:37]
If the funk don't rule your cut[00:02:40]
Or if the streets don't dig your beats[00:02:41]
Or if my man ain't fifty grand[00:02:44]
Or if the hoods don't think you're good[00:02:47]
Or if your church don't really work[00:02:49]
Or if the pigs want to knock your wigs[00:02:52]
Or if the jeeps don't roll with beats[00:02:54]
