What They Do (explicit Album Version) - The Roots[00:00:00]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:00:26]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:00:37]
Yo yo lost generation fast pace nation[00:00:45]
World population confront their frustration[00:00:49]
The principles of true hip-hop have been forsaken[00:00:52]
It's all contractual and about money making[00:00:54]
Pretend to be cats don't seem to know their limitations[00:00:57]
Exact replication and false representation[00:00:59]
You wanna be a man then stand your own[00:01:02]
To mc requires skills I demand some shown[00:01:04]
I let the frauds keep fronting[00:01:07]
And roam like a celluar phone far from home[00:01:08]
Giving crowds what they wanted[00:01:11]
Offical hip-hop consumption the 5th dumping[00:01:12]
Keeping you party jumping wit an original something[00:01:15]
Yo I dedicate this to the one dimensional[00:01:17]
No imagination excuse for perpetration[00:01:20]
My man came over and said[00:01:23]
Yo we thought we heard you[00:01:24]
Joke's for you[00:01:26]
We heard your biting a** crew but uh[00:01:26]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:01:28]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:01:39]
Thin is the line of between love and hatred[00:01:49]
The game is ill-natured it's nothing sacred[00:01:51]
Hey yo it's funny when I see some rap niggaz do the making[00:01:53]
Of you would blow up or go as far as they can take it[00:01:56]
My nine to five is just to hit ya get the party live[00:01:59]
I'm black thought used to rap for sport[00:02:02]
Now the rhymes in went pay a life support[00:02:04]
I take it very seriously within this industry[00:02:06]
It's various crews that try to touch me[00:02:09]
But I come with the beautiful thing[00:02:11]
And I bless the track plushly[00:02:13]
Around the world the crowds love me from doing tours[00:02:14]
Recepient of applause from you and yours[00:02:17]
Creator of original sounds to send to stores you take home[00:02:20]
To absorb and sweat it out your pores[00:02:23]
Now who can stop the music running through these veins[00:02:25]
Infinitely go against the grain[00:02:27]
That's why my motto's to[00:02:29]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:02:30]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:02:41]
Living the life of limos and lights[00:02:51]
Airplanes and trains[00:02:53]
Short days and long nights[00:02:54]
Keyboards and mics[00:02:56]
Bass chords and drum kicks[00:02:57]
And my mental thick to hit my head like brick[00:02:58]
As I embark on a mission welcoming to the dark[00:03:01]
When I first spark the arts when's the listening start[00:03:03]
Open your head wide and let the thought inside[00:03:06]
My style fortified by all of philladelphy[00:03:08]
I've dealt more stealth than all the wicked wealthy[00:03:11]
Mentality undetectable by the naked eye[00:03:14]
Then I get paid when the record is played[00:03:16]
To put it short I want it made like ed nuff said[00:03:19]
Then after that I'm putting no mind cause how man[00:03:22]
We let the ladies blend with the darksking devil bred and discover[00:03:24]
My level is that of no other[00:03:28]
And roots crew bring offical and true[00:03:29]
While I'm continuing to[00:03:31]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:03:32]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:03:43]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:03:53]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:04:04]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:04:14]
Never do what they do what they do what they do[00:04:24]
