Piece O' Peace |
Every million miles ya haffe tek a first step |
Every million miles ya haffe tek a first step |
I was sick of flippin’channels / and sick of flippin’quarters |
I called my man Zulu/ said, Meet me on the corner |
Maybe we can check out the clubs in the city |
'cause waitin’at the crib can make you feel shitty |
so he hopped into my ride on the squeaky door side and |
we hit the Upper Room/ where they keep the funk alive |
The man at the door/ invited us inside |
He said there isn’t any cover/ if you’re keepin’up the vibe |
We took it upstairs to big up the area |
the people in the house was shakin’up their derrier |
Raisin up their hands and raisin up their voices |
Tokes was the D.J. |
I was happy with his choices |
maxin’and mixin’the beats they was fixin' |
my brain like a smoke that was doubly, triply, dope |
the decadence is gone and lifemay never be the same |
'cause when the beat hits |
you feel no pain! |
so a piece of peace for you, a piece of peace for me a piece of peace for every peaceful person that you see |
a piece of peace for you, a piece of peace for me but I don’t act peaceful if you’re not that way to me Every million mile ya haffe tek a first step |
Every million mile ya haffe tek a first step |
Five-O was outside waitin’with their vans |
hopin’that shit would get outta hand |
so dat they could test their weapons |
on innocent civilians, |
the high tech shit costin’million and millions |
money should’ve spent on something for community |
but that’s O.K. |
because we got the unity |
so fuck the police! |
we can keep the peace! |
we can make love and conquer that disease |
because nothing in the world is impossible tome |
I can swim on dry land and run upon the sea |
and nothing in the world is impossible to me you can chop off my legs and I’ll land upon my feet |
I turn it over to the spirit and I leave her in charge |
my favorite record sounds like an African Head Charge |
She’ll beat up the beats with and eggbeater |
pour em in the batter |
she’ll make 'em sound fatter and fatter |
'cause food for the soul is the flavor of the music |
spice for the brain is the essence of the lyrics |
songs can be delicious and also be nutritious |
You can’t payfor culture, it can only be experienced |
BOOM! |
BOOM! |
BOOM! |
WELL HAVE YOU EVER BEEN EXPERIENCED! |
WELL |
If the funk is on time |
then we call it punctual |
we’re matchin up the footsteps |
spiritual and functional |
like carnivale in Rio |
the Charlie Hunter trio |
Had the groovers groovin' |
and all the movers movin' |
Cuba, Twist, Reminisce and NME |
Graffiti on the street for everyone to see |
even the elders in the house was havin’fun |
because we livin’life at the top of our lungs |
It was truly a life celebration that night |
had the world’s greatest time |
but we’d never sell the movie rights |
to Morrie Povich, or anyone like that |
and anyone who does is really, really whack! |
We fish or cut bait and we’re not takin’prisoners |
and if you comin’late then you might’ve missed some a this |
funky good time we had here in fronta you |
so long, farewell, alveerdersain, adieau to you |
