Jurassic 5 - Sum of Us lyrics
[Jurassic 5 - Sum of Us lyrics]
Watchin' your scene plumett
If lyrics were green vomit
My vocals would clean stomachs
Addicts wean from it
Where dreams and green run it
The faces on money change like
The host on Teen Sumit
I'm close to being done with
This industry's cream driven supreme livin'
Seein' more demons than Gene Simmons
And mean fibbin' actors be adlibbin'
Fakin' the funk and some of
Us naturally had rhythm
Some of us act like they had women
Gats in the abdomen back when
The fact is them cats
They didn't have nuttin
For certain I'm sure it's
Fiction but for some the purest diction
Insures their jurisdiction
I'm kicking it up a level trying
To stay in the red
Some stay in the bed, zombie
Like the Day of the Dead
With decay in the head
Playin' instead of stayin' ahead
Steadily portrayin' celebs
Delayin' the inevitable when some come round
They run down when they touch ground
They climb up the structures unsound
Some of you like the way
My words caress tracks
While some of these politicians
Secretly suppress facts
I'm sayin' through songs I write
My wrongs I right
If you wanna fight the power
Get the power to fight
Cuz some of us judge without
Knowing the man's inner
And some of us find fault in
The sin and not the sinner
Influential ideas push pressure on my peers
That's why most of these brothers
Have short term careers
You appear to be what's happenin'
For a year you crackin'
One hitter quitter now you missin' in action
With no satisfaction from the streets
I only hear foolishness when you speak
I repeat
My predecessor's endeavor with pleasure
Lock and load, explode and come better
Hopin that generation X
Be more wicked with the flex
And not so quick to cash a check
And disrespect, talkin' guns and sex
Chasin' death
But end up gettin' layed to rest
At your request
You're at the end of your line
Out of your mind idle women, weed and wine
And shells for your nine
The blind lead the blind time after time
When you rhyme for the shine
I'm sayin' through songs I write
My wrongs I right
If you wanna fight the power
Get the power to fight
Cuz some of us judge without
Knowing the man's inner
And some of us find fault in
The sin and not the sinner
Yo, I'm tellin' you to REBEL
But dude, if you stale the 2na can tell
Either you're comin' to the party
Or you truant as hell
Politicians ain't got no problem puttin'
You in the cell
It's like we rolled up a snowball
And threw it in hell
See some of us are looted with
Mail and suited to swell
But still blind like you're fluent in Braille
Yo, I never can tell uh
Why some make it or fail
Speak it and spell overcome and still prevail
We ripple the water frequently
Blink if we show delinquency, please
Human frequencies have been diseased
A breeze ain't what I'm feelin'
Healin' is essential
Mental aggrivation shows you what
We've been through
Yo, sign of the times influence
The way I rhyme, man
Pick up a nine and put down your picket sign
Man your life is worth way more
Than just some diamonds
Without bling I still gleam
Glisten and shine, man
I'm sayin' through songs I write
My wrongs I right
If you wanna fight the power
Get the power to fight
Cuz some of us judge without
Knowing the man's inner
And some of us find fault in
The sin and not the sinner
