    "I rock with the Roots like the Giving Tree

    We get it poppin' like a hit chorus
    The flow is historic, they can't get rid of us
    Ubiquitous, and we lay the law like Leviticus
    Ten years ago we made history so they missing us"

  • @oddysee209
    @oddysee209 9 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    [Intro]
    Kweli say, "Everybody act according to the season that they born in"
    Some are the night, some are the morning, some at noon
    Some in winter, some in June
    It's our code, it's the natural
    The science is a jewel
    For me and mines, yours and you
    Let's move, tell you a little about mine, yo
    [Verse 1]
    I was born in a season where the world was quiet and cold
    Celebrations were going on
    Some were happy, some were sad
    Some felt bad from being good
    Some felt good from being bad , feelings pass and change
    But they never leave, they here to stay
    Holiday, holiday, happy birthday
    Teenage love, the first cut run deep
    Soul on flesh , this is the Brooklyn streets
    Year of the Ox, seven and three
    M.D. , the history (come on)
    Every soul's got one of these (yes)
    It's where you been and where you be
    And without understanding you cannot proceed
    Complete, the start and the end
    Then it just go round again
    [Hook]
    Again and again, brand new
    Again and again, so fresh
    Again and again, newness
    [Verse 2: Talib Kweli]
    I was born in the decade of decadence where they worship what they have
    Ford was president, do the math
    The war was ended when the Vietnamese stormed the city of Saigon
    We was like, bye; we was gone, let bygones be bygones
    I'm gone, spread love, it's the Brooklyn way
    Where the hug you with the firearm, try it on
    Like new school clothes , Black Star official
    Smash when we do a show, it's facts, no mystery
    I'm down with the crew like Mussolini in Italy
    I rock with the Roots like the Giving Tree
    Powerful, bigotry at work, me and my people got history
    These rappers dumb it down considerably
    We get it poppin' like a hit chorus
    The flow is historic, they can't get rid of us
    Ubiquitous , and we lay the law like Leviticus
    Ten years ago we made history so they missing us
    [Outro]
    And don't call it comeback in particular
    We will never blend into ephemera or
    Fade into peripheral, transition of the minister's original
    We're broadcast clear without diminishing
    Black Star so tight, burning soul temperatures and ministers
    Alkalines, aminos and minerals essentials
    Served over Dilla time signatures
    It's miracle material, remember it's right now foreverness

    I'm an atheist but for some reason most of my favorite hip hop artist tend to be Muslim, puzzles me...

    • @mfwhom5214
      @mfwhom5214 8 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah a lot odd the rappers I listen to are part of that five percent nation religion (which has ties to Islam). And I remember reading somewhere that mos def is a 9/11 truther :(

    • @jeremybalsley5765
      @jeremybalsley5765 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tribe is my all time favorite. None of these guys are hardcore, I don't think. I'm sure most of them drink, smoke or both. A lot of them were just raised in it. As was I with Christianity. I just wish being the thinkers of hip hop they'd give it up. There are a few outspoken atheist rappers tho.

    • @mfwhom5214

      Dead prez comes to mind when I think of atheist rappers. You should check out their song "Propaganda".

      cookieboy013 I agree, most of them dont incorporate it into their music so it's all good.
