Ey ey check it out homie[00:00:01]
Man you need to get up out of this spot man[00:00:02]
And get a job man before you get smoked man[00:00:03]
(yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah son )[00:00:05]
I know you don't wanna hear it man[00:00:06]
But ey man wait hold up loc [00:00:07]
You got company man[00:00:09]
(where's my guns )[00:00:10]
When I'm ridin' on the street I hear gunshots[00:00:11]
(swear) crack niggas cause they moms missed flips[00:00:13]
So black man really care about politics[00:00:15]
In the ninety's our governments so slick[00:00:19]
I watch CNN sometimes and I realize[00:00:21]
They're playin' tricks on my mind[00:00:24]
They want a man to work with his hands[00:00:26]
Too young to die and they don't give a damn[00:00:29]
Rare-momma got down on her knees[00:00:31]
But not no more god damn it I make cheese[00:00:33]
I'm on the move and I'ma show and prove[00:00:36]
You might cry to my political groove[00:00:39]
Rest in peace Sauce Brothers underneath[00:00:41]
I love you to death while my beats' like a reef[00:00:43]
In the middle of the night on the city streets[00:00:46]
The only thing we got left is the beat[00:00:49]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:00:51]
All we got left is the beat huh give it to me[00:00:54]
All we got left is the beat the beat yo[00:00:56]
All we got left is the beat uh[00:00:58]
Who brings guns into the USA [00:01:01]
And then makes sure that they come around the way[00:01:03]
Gain the points until the whole race traps[00:01:06]
And teach up my woman[00:01:08]
That she should call up the cops[00:01:10]
The projects are hell wait a minute[00:01:11]
There's nothin' we do but ride on top of an elevator[00:01:14]
Say the clubs I can't get a job[00:01:17]
Mouth to feed somebody's gettin' robbed[00:01:18]
I ain't worked but I ain't workin' for crumbs[00:01:21]
You ever seen a man-shelter [00:01:23]
Check out the bombs [00:01:25]
Brother of pain their whole lives are over[00:01:26]
They spent every dime tryin' not to be sober[00:01:29]
And all the ladies got bags of clothes[00:01:31]
They'll be your long lost momma[00:01:33]
One never knows[00:01:35]
The streets are like a nightmare[00:01:36]
While the presidents secretary is[00:01:38]
Chillin' in his leather chair[00:01:40]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:01:41]
All we got left is the beat give it to me[00:01:44]
All we got left is the beat the beat yo[00:01:46]
All we got left is the beat uh[00:01:49]
Lemon to a lime lime to a lemon[00:01:51]
When you need a toga-black hire black linen[00:01:53]
Your rippers' man applause when he can't get a job[00:01:56]
He gets up all of his family and feels like a slob[00:01:59]
The black women don't understand[00:02:01]
Cause they don't realize what it is to be a black man[00:02:04]
In the mornin' a brother feels like a jerk[00:02:07]
Seein' black women and white men go to work[00:02:09]
So all women fear the brothers ain't real[00:02:12]
Cause they won't give us no jobs that's the real deal[00:02:14]
Hold my hand while I get it all together[00:02:16]
They don't deserve me at times of bad weather[00:02:19]
Cause I'ma make it out the concrete walls[00:02:21]
And there's another way besides basketball[00:02:24]
Let me go let me do what I do[00:02:27]
I'm red black and green then red white and blue[00:02:29]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:02:31]
All we got left is the beat give it to me[00:02:34]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:02:36]
All we got left is the beat uh give it to me[00:02:39]
Ridin' in the street you can feel the city heat[00:02:42]
A little bit of grass and a whole lot of concrete[00:02:44]
Creepin' - I'm standin' on the corner[00:02:46]
And you can get robbed if you wanna[00:02:49]
Paybacks a mother on the street[00:02:52]
You're seein' gold teeth ya hearin' funky beats[00:02:54]
Brothers ride by real slow[00:02:57]
You get leary when they got tinted windows[00:02:59]
Sittin' on the steps with a blunt[00:03:02]
I'm drinkin' Valentine I wasn't raised up front[00:03:04]
My Aunt Ellie always talked about God[00:03:06]
Tell me you never cried cause its so hard[00:03:09]
Government got a hell of a plan[00:03:12]
But word is born they ain't destroyin' this black man[00:03:14]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:03:17]
All we got left is the beat give it to me[00:03:19]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:03:21]
All we got left is the beat uh give it to me[00:03:24]
All we got left is the beat is the beat yo[00:03:27]
All we got left is the beat huh give it to me[00:03:29]
All we got left is the beat the beat yo[00:03:32]
All we got left is the beat uh give it to me[00:03:34]
