1-2-3-4U |
Live from the new york underground but I’m now london- |
Bound |
I come to town to light up the mic once the flight |
Touches down |
But it’s not just me it’s us3 so it must be funky trust |
Me |
Fingers still dusty from digging in the crates for jazz |
Breaks |
Master tapes or acetates |
Low fi so I use a high sample rate to compensate |
Pure bass not from concentrate |
Now you wanna taste so you salivate |
Just grab a plate and dig in |
We’re dishing food for thought from the soul kitchen |
No chicken but the drumsticks are hitting the spot |
Gotcha licking your chops |
Don’t bite cos it’s sizzling hot |
See we’re mixing a pot of gumbo |
Funk, soul, with some hip hop and a little drop of jazz |
On top |
Just add some rock some be-bop ah scooby doo |
Guess what europe, we love you too |
And it’s just for you |
Come on every 1 |
Who you’re listening 2 |
Us3 the crew |
Playing just 4 you |
Way down in the concrete jungle of harlem |
There was a young man on the road to stardom |
He had many raps and it wasn’t a problem |
To rock shows in winter, spring, summer and autumn |
Now I don’t like dissing people like most do |
I’d rather speak freely on the struggles we go through |
So listen up close if you see me approach you |
And just pay attention cos you know you’re supposed to |
Too many people in this world are jobless |
Or work long hours even though they’re impoverished |
I’m not preaching I’m just trying to be honest |
Cos it’s not for me to treat people like objects |
Forget opinions let’s get to the facts |
I’m trying to end world poverty like jeffrey sachs |
So don’t try to tell me to relax |
When we base our education on a property tax |
Come on every 1 |
Who you’re listening 2 |
Us3 the crew |
Playing just 4 you |
Now keep in mind you’ll find this time it’s a live band |
No hype man all I need on stage is a mic stand |
And wiseguy by my side, but now it’s akil |
And dj first rate on the wheels of steel |
Cutting scratching but gaston’s what’s happening |
Just rapping for you cos you’re the main attraction |
Time for me to punch in like action jackson |
Crafting raps with a passion like I’m gaston |
But it’s akil d and I know that you feel me |
The real g’s chill on my block on 115th street |
I rock beats for the people that cops beat |
I’m on a hot streak and competitors got beef |
