Bridge To Bama (Feat. Talib Kweli) |
| Yo, step out on the block to face the sun |
| Creep the people in the village that raised my son |
| As far as days go this look like an amazing one |
| I feel more normal in the summer the same as the Yankees won |
| It’s like, of course, what you expect less |
| The night about to kick off folks is out in their best dress |
| Pimps and whores rising on the horizon |
| Ballers copping more diamonds |
| Watch the ferrions looking towards Zion |
| What’s embedded in the hardest head |
| It’s the epic lie to me and debt it |
| To a country that gives us no credit |
| So cats stealing money cash hoes 'cuz that’s what’s expected |
| With the bill when the original architect is comedic |
| Mummies return so the dummies can learn |
| Just how much Hollywood got to burn |
| Of our money that’s hard earned |
| But that ain’t really my concern |
| As I walk the block as soon as the sun goes down |
| It starts to get hot, scorching |
| Bridge to 'Bama |
| Bring your wife, bring your brother, bring your kid to mama |
| She shits bananas |
| The way we paint pictures in a vivid manner |
| Bridge to 'Bama |
| Bring your wife, bring your brother, bring your kid to mama |
| She shits bananas |
| The way we paint pictures in a vivid manner, yeah |
| Magnetic like refrigerator poetry |
| Attract imitators who wanna flow like me |
| You know it’s me, floating free through the ghetto where the |
| People supposedly ain’t trying to show no love openly |
| Give me your hand, yeah |
| Trying to build a bridge so we can stay the course |
| Hi-tek lay the track for the train that thought to run across |
| Come across places where faces got tracks of tears |
| 'Cuz the human race been running upon their backs for years, yeah |
| But they don’t break |
| They keep it moving like when I travel the land |
| And people, other people do it how other people go through it down |
| Bridging the gap like the Black Eyed Peas |
| Loving, giving it back, to see them raise up |
| Living for that to keep trying means to keep failing |
| But if you don’t keep trying that means to keep dying |
| What the hell, we gonna die anyway |
| Keep your soul live when you’re here is what I’m trying to say |
| Bridge to 'Bama |
| Bring your wife, bring your brother, bring your kid to mama |
| She shits bananas |
| The way we paint pictures in a vivid manner |
| Bridge to 'Bama |
| Bring your wife, bring your brother, bring your kid to mama |
| She shits bananas |
| The way we paint pictures in a vivid manner, yeah |
| Come on, yeah, yeah |
| Break it down like |
| Come on, yeah, yeah |
| Come on, yeah |
| hi-tek, yeah |
| Soul live, this how we do it, right |
| We keep it moving like |
| This hip-hop like |
| Jazz music like |
| Everybody wants to rock |
| Everybody rock me like |
| Everybody in the spot |
| Brooklyn to Nomadic life |
| Yo, for the babies and |
| It’s for you and |
| It’s for me and, it’s for us and |
| Break it down like |
