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 |
