Blue Scholars - Blue School lyrics

I'm a blue scholar worker studying the
Art of labor to create
Flavor to relate to listeners
Alleviate the danger associated
With strangers
Isn't it strange how we estrange
Ourselves from our neighbor?
Enables us through music to connect
Releasing fluids in our neck
With the rhythmic forward movement of
Our heads and back again
Indeed as we succeed the pioneers
Maybe give back all that we've
Been taking through the years
I bleed, for what I believe to be the truth
Nurturing the seed planted in
The fertile youth the poetry
Hanging from the branches eat the fruit
Pluck the most succulent to
Suck upon the juice
"So what's up with you?" frequently they ask


Been hibernating writing till the last page
Ciphering the past days by
Bypassing the lies and the bullshit
Get up off the mic
And save it for the pulpit

In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session

I'm an exile, motherland stepchild
Metropolis dwelling middle America's
Prisoner of war
Combat the paper till the blankness is gone
Listen now
Talk about the beat after the song
Astronomical, cause that is just
A modest measurement
Of my ability to represent my family correct
Because I be about it
Ain't no other way to say it
Discovered my potential when I stayed
Late to tape it
In the basement with an ancient karaoke
Stereo in lieu of a studio
We made due with everything lying around
And if I'm not mistaken isn't that
Improvisation what Hip-Hop is all about
If you popping at the lip then I
Will sock you in the mouth
Sonically to render you the opposite of loud
Apology accepted in advance
I think it's kind of cool at one point
That you thought you had a chance

In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session

A veteran's fate written on pages of mixtapes
I'm all about a government
That citizens dictate
Sick of fucking dealing with
The presidents mistakes
To sit back and rant is just misplaced anger
So I cradle, pens
From now until the fable ends
Taken friends for granted
But now I've got to make amends
Calling out the big talk
Small walking cowards high above the ground
Yo we shaking down your towers
And demanding our money back
Plus reimbursement for parking and shit
I put my heart in this shit
And all my arteries connect
To the amplifier wire
Music make the flames in my inner fire higher
I reinvent the language in the
Image of a dancer
Contorting where the floor becomes an answer
Blue school graduate dog
After this last verse
When the revolution comes we going
To shoot your ass first

In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session
In the blue school, class is in session
Ask us a question, 'cause class is in session

Class is in session, ask us a question
Give us suggestion yo, strive for protection
Whatever you do, whatever you say
Step off run be good at what you do
At least be good at something
Writing, reading, producing, DJ-ing, cooking
Cleaning, doing laundry
Something, learn an art, a trade be somebody
In the blue school class is in session
Ask us a question 'cause class is in session
In the blue school class is in session
Ask us a question 'cause class is in session
In the blue school class is in session
Ask us a question 'cause class is in session
In the blue school class is in session
Ask us a question 'cause class is in session
Y'all
