CeeLo Green - Big Ole Words (Damn) lyrics
[CeeLo Green - Big Ole Words Damn lyrics]
Mm hmm ok, Ok yeah y'all thought I lost it
In no fashion have I lost
My passion for the pen
It's just that lately life has
Been a lost less inspiring
To tell you the truth trials
And tribulations is very tiring
I gotta play a little game
Of gimmick and gun firing
I'm not inspiring to be any
Lower or higher than
I get equal as in to eye to eye again
I'm the truth
I'm complicated I'm all ready but try again
I've got to die once to never ever die again
And what I believe within I
Engrave within my skin
And one thing that I ain't is
A saint without a sin
How could there be a now if
There never was a then?
That is unbalanced just like the
Yang without the yen
I am distinguishably deeper as
Opposed to the paper-thin
And I breathe oxygen
And you rhymin bout rocks again
You stagnant
Standing still enough to feel the world spin
I'm beginning to smell the end in
The path of the blowing wind
Hopefully I'm fortunate enough to spend
Forever with a friend
I'm slow dancing with destiny
Every day until then
When I first got my big break I
Said that I would never bend
And discredit my character to
Keep up or contend
And my belief beat baseline secrete
Such a special blend i am not like them at
All and I cannot pretend
I am not like you at all and I cannot pretend
DAMN that shit was funky (Ohh)
You heard that nigga?
DAMN shawty Lo (yup, c'mon)
I get off on an
Extension or compare comprehension
I'm in a classroom of my own
I'm too far gone for competition
Yet I'm never obnoxious with
My obvious ambition
Perfectly imperfect is my
Dimension's definition
I engage my pen pierces the page
So that it bleeds my intention
With honorable mention of
God's divine intervention
I'm incredible I'm inevitable and
There's no possible prevention i'll hardly
(have to) scream my dream and
I'll have your undivided attention
The powers that be will
Be beaten into submission
And you will be able to
See my revolution on television
You'll get an aneurysm fuckin around
With my head on collision
With the power to get you dead
And have the dead risen
I remember when my development was arrested
I was doin time on my
Mind misguided and misdirected i was sick
So sick if I spoke to you you'd be infected
Then my conscience was cleared of all
Charges and I came out corrected
Reinvented, refined
Replenished and well rested
On a mission for a medium to
Manifest the thoughts I collected
After that everything I breathed upon
I blessed it
I committed crimes of passion and
My soul was suspected
But it was thrown out of court
Because of course the Creator and I connected
He told me, "fear not for thou art protected
Your life is being requested
And you are being tested
So make every attempt you can
To expect the unexpected"
Mm mm mm boy that Lo boy
DAMN oh Lawd cee-Lo why you do it like that?
You ain't have to bustin all like that, man
Makin these niggas feel like they can't rap
DAMN i got some more
I got some more if you want some
I am internally evolving entirely
Extensive eclectic expression eloquently
Instantly innovative, Courageously creative
I'm driven, this God given gift it comes
Naturally to the native not a need for the
Dramatics or the systematic
Simplicities, strictly science
And mathematics the mastermind of the mighty
Mystical and magical moves
And metaphors manifests masterpieces
Thoroughly fury through the
Inner mind's eye establishes this thesis
Of these innermost, insightful
Intriguing interpretations of
Extreme intelligence
My common sense is no co-incidence
Caution: competitors approach carefully
I'm able to see
Rare ranges of distance, I expect respect
There's no tolerance for negligence, never
You'll forever feel the wrath of the
Pure and powerful poetry, permanently
Pre-meditative, political, critical
Compelling, storytelling
Defining desire, faith fuelin the fire
Brilliance, For Blacknes philosophical
Psychological willingly waging warfare
Withstanding, commanding
Demanding the listening ears to
Hear without forcing
Instead endorsing education equality
Not hate just revolution of the mind state
Not mere words but emotions
Which is essential
Influential provin my people's potential
Militancy, innocence, insight
Listen to God then write
Since my birth date I been tight! Shit
Now I don't want never hear nobody else say
Goddamn a nigga from the South can't rhyme
NEVER!
DAMN hehehenow can I do my shit?
In no fashion have I lost
My passion for the pen
It's just that lately life has
Been a lost less inspiring
To tell you the truth trials
And tribulations is very tiring
I gotta play a little game
Of gimmick and gun firing
