Up From The Ground |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your town |
| Keep moving around and around |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your frown |
| Keep moving around and around |
| In the place with amazing grace |
| Moving under all those just wasting space |
| So we raise the stakes and erase the slate |
| Running out all rappers on a paper chase |
| Just a taste of a soul in race |
| But don’t keep faith but control breeds hate |
| A lonely face up a phony fakes |
| For as long as it takes |
| I’m my own when i’m able |
| Let’s take the first step to a system phone |
| Grab hold and try to change the things that we all own |
| If we make sole progress |
| Sometimes i seemed so blessed |
| But we gotta stay positive, driven and focused |
| On this protest it’s the bar reps and oak lifts |
| Actions speak louder than words but we still press |
| On trying to right the wrongs with these songs |
| It’s not a matter of lift |
| It’s just a matter of how long |
| It’s the stuff that’ll be stale as bomb |
| Just twist the dial turn the radio on |
| Plus they’re playing the songs that are paying the blings |
| Making them all part by saying the wrong things |
| Come on take the junk, turn it around |
| Stop faking the funk burn the shit to the ground |
| What better way than now today escape the crowd |
| Or we can remain proud, face down, safe and sound |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your town |
| Around and around |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your frown |
| Keep moving around and around |
| Live your life to the fullest, let the chips fall |
| Give it all you got til you hit a brick wall |
| Shit y’all, it’s all a big game right |
| Ain’t like it matters anyway so we play right |
| Stay hype, til the final curtains close |
| First to blow bubble be the first to go |
| Hone your craft make sure you’re verses flow |
| Stay humble, spread lovin, stay versatile |
| Kyprios killed the radio star |
| Motor on the track gotta wait in a boxcar |
| Kyprios killed in stereo war |
| Raining over him love and hate in my heart |
| I’m about a ten a ten, a baller who intend |
| To win the manner of an alien, a scholar and a gentleman |
| Intelligent i innovate you little let us demonstrate |
| Shark in a puddle, you a minnow in a lake |
| Consider this a break from the everyday pre-packaged week average music |
| We have this way of making people wanna jump and move |
| And thank god there’s somebody bumping something new |
| (sweatshop) |
| Coming through, so clear the path |
| And feel the wrath of a disaster near to happen |
| Need to hear the rap and sing to the masses |
| Keeping them smiling while their kingdom collapses |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your town |
| Keep moving around and around |
| We all chase after things that just hold us down |
| Yeah but we’re moving up from the ground |
| We wrote the sounds that are bound to turn out your frown |
| Move around and around |
