The Space Program - A Tribe Called Quest[00:00:00]
Written by:Kamaal Fareed[00:00:00]
I'mma deal with a bigger insult man[00:00:00]
The heat the heat the heat the heat[00:00:03]
It's comin' down hard[00:00:06]
We've got to get our shit together[00:00:07]
It's time to go left and not right[00:00:10]
Gotta get it together forever[00:00:12]
Gotta get it together for brothers[00:00:14]
Gotta get it together for sisters[00:00:17]
For mothers and fathers and dead niggas[00:00:19]
For non conformists one hitter quitters[00:00:21]
For Tyson types and che figures[00:00:24]
Let's get it together come on let's make it[00:00:26]
Gotta make it to make it to make it to make it[00:00:28]
To make something happen to make something happen[00:00:30]
To make something happen let's make something happen[00:00:33]
Word to phifer[00:00:35]
Gonna bring it to the overlord drinkin' Cisco[00:00:35]
Chilling with the gold microphone cords[00:00:38]
And we grip our balls every time we stuntin' on tour[00:00:40]
'Cause we never bore responding to the ready crowd's roar[00:00:42]
And promoters try to hit us with the art of war[00:00:44]
We about our business we not quitters[00:00:46]
Not bullshitters we deliver we go get it[00:00:48]
Don't be bitter 'cause we not just niggas[00:00:50]
Jarobi my fiber wove into different cloth[00:00:52]
Ain't nothing forbidden this nigga get his written off[00:00:53]
Hardest spit in the city y'all niggas spitting kitten soft[00:00:56]
Confused and amazed shook up with your brain missing lost[00:00:58]
They planning for our future people[00:01:00]
None of our people involved[00:01:02]
Pouring Henny and Smirnoff to get it cracking off[00:01:03]
Cracking off a Smirnoff to quickly turn to Molotov[00:01:05]
Molotov the spaceship doors before that bitch is taking off[00:01:07]
It always seems the poorest persons[00:01:10]
Are people forsaken dawg[00:01:11]
Washingtons Jeffersons Jacksons[00:01:12]
On the captain's log[00:01:14]
They'd rather lead us to the grayest water poison deadly smog[00:01:14]
Mass un blackening it's happening you feel it y'all[00:01:17]
Rather see we in a three by three structure with many bars[00:01:19]
Leave us where we are so they can play among the stars[00:01:22]
They taking off to Mars got the space vessels overflowing[00:01:24]
What you think they want us there all us niggas not going[00:01:26]
Reputation ain't glowing reparations ain't flowing[00:01:29]
If you find yourself stuck in a creek you better start rowing[00:01:31]
Used to see the TV screen as the place to land my dream in[00:01:33]
And the car stereo where they would promote the show[00:01:36]
Optimistic little brother with a hope you know[00:01:38]
There ain't a space program for niggas[00:01:40]
Yeah you stuck here nigga[00:01:42]
Move on to the stars[00:01:43]
There ain't a space program for niggas[00:01:45]
Yeah you stuck here nigga[00:01:47]
Move on to the stars[00:01:48]
There ain't a space program for niggas[00:01:49]
Yeah you stuck here nigga[00:01:51]
Move on to the stars[00:01:53]
There ain't a space program for niggas[00:01:54]
Yeah you stuck stuck stuck[00:01:56]
Move on to the stars[00:01:57]
Sit and wonder sometimes I read the paper every day[00:02:06]
All these happenings is cycular just happen different ways[00:02:09]
And the president's refined in her wing she's confined[00:02:11]
With about thirty Percocets and five bottles of wine[00:02:14]
Carolina nothing finer than a black woman who climbs[00:02:16]
To the top of the state building claiming that that flag is mine[00:02:18]
Now people on top of people feels like we can't breathe[00:02:21]
Put so much in this muthaf**k feel like we shouldn't leave[00:02:23]
Put it on TV put it in movies put it in our face[00:02:25]
These notions and ideas and citizens live in space[00:02:28]
I chuckle just like all of y'all absurdity after all[00:02:30]
Takes money to get it running and money for trees to fall[00:02:33]
Imagine for one second all the people are colored please[00:02:35]
Imagine for one second all the people in poverty[00:02:37]
No matter the skin tone culture or time zone[00:02:40]
Think the ones who got it[00:02:42]
Would even think to throw you a bone[00:02:43]
Moved you out your neighbourhood did they find you a home[00:02:45]
Nah cypher probably no place to[00:02:47]
Imagine if this shit was really talkin' about space dude[00:02:49]
Imagine if this shit was really talkin' about space dude[00:02:52]
Move on to the stars[00:02:54]
Move on to the stars[00:02:58]

The danger must be growing[00:05:08]
For the rowers keep on rowing[00:05:10]
And they're certainly not showing[00:05:13]
Any signs that they are slowing[00:05:16]
We're there[00:05:27]
Where[00:05:28]
Here[00:05:28]
A small step for mankind[00:05:29]
But a giant step for us[00:05:31]
Oompa loompa doopa dee doo[00:05:33]
I've got another puzzle for you[00:05:37]
