The ones that's hip won't change the dial and [00:00:27]
I remember one morning at the soul shack [00:00:29]
Coolin [00:00:32]
In the outback [00:00:32]
On the songwritin ship [00:00:33]
Blizz a five [00:00:35]
Off a bob marley spliff [00:00:35]
On the cloud I be relaxin from last night and s**t [00:00:37]
In studio today but hey brother [00:00:39]
Uestion [00:00:42]
Was on the westside asleep without a clue when [00:00:42]
I hollered down to crumbs to pick up the phone [00:00:44]
And tell him to get ready [00:00:47]
Uestion [00:00:49]
What ya doin [00:00:49]
Ain't no thing [00:00:49]

Buttered chicken wings [00:00:50]
So I met him in the west [00:00:51]
Where we had to 'lax and wait for rubber band and bes' [00:00:52]
Bassey broke down on the other side of town [00:00:57]
Yo you know what it's about [00:01:04]

Sweet music [00:01:12]
Soul music [00:01:13]
You know the roots is a group that'll choose it [00:01:14]
Just to use it [00:01:17]
To make you move it [00:01:18]
Yeah [00:01:19]
*repeat 2x except 'yeah' *[00:01:19]
From the subway to the studio [00:01:20]
Gots to break fast if we wanna get [00:01:21]

Runnin like a mex for the border [00:01:24]

Uestion dropped a whole bag of drumsticks [00:01:45]
Ain't no thing [00:01:47]
But a chicken wing [00:01:48]
So [00:01:50]
He bends down to pick up the sticks [00:01:50]
And his pants fall down [00:01:54]
Dang [00:01:57]
In my face [00:01:57]
Uestion didn't frown [00:01:57]
Turned around [00:01:59]
