Get em up high okay yeah[00:00:36]

To the ladies in the house we proud of y'all[00:00:50]
You got the Roots crew with the sound of course[00:00:53]
High lift em up high okay[00:00:56]
When that adrenaline get in they system[00:00:58]
It get em out on a quest for stardom could be a mother f**king problem[00:01:00]
In Philly cincinnati Los Angeles or Harlem[00:01:04]
Kids call themselves killers let they hammers do the talkin[00:01:06]
Don't even know the meaning of life ain't seen a thing[00:01:09]
And you dream of flooding the scenery with yayo and greenery[00:01:12]
But for now you sticking her with the heavy machinery[00:01:14]
Wonder how you lift it up be only 17[00:01:17]
And like everybody he want to shine young brothers on the grind[00:01:20]
Holding something in their spine bowling for columbine[00:01:23]
Stressing to me how it's all about a dollar sign[00:01:25]
Dig the way you out of line out of sight and out of mind[00:01:28]
Up against the clock and damn near out of time[00:01:31]
The Tipping Point has arrived and that's the bottom line[00:01:34]
To all my peoples that are stars it's our time to shine[00:01:36]

Shorties want to be themselves I know it's hard to be[00:03:30]
Don't want to do the ruben studdard and come off less threatening[00:03:33]
