Mumbles, Aceyalone - The Balance lyrics

Mr mix Mr dJ play that beat
Won't you play it for me
In the mix mister hop
Forward hop back hop, hop hop

The second somebody dies somebody
Else is born people are celebrating while
Other people mourn home may be home to you
But to me it's foreign
Even the matador don't pull the
Bull by the horns
One man's enemy is another man's friend
One man's poisons is another man's medicine
So let us stand, let us sit and let us view
The changing of the guard oh it's
So hard to keep it true
It's the balance of the scales it
Can't be challenged or expelled
Soon as somebody lost somebody else prevails
Some someone is quiet at the
Same time someone yells


Half full or half empty water in the well
It's the Half and Half Hypothesis the 50
50 theory
Eerie as it may seem check your balance beam
It's the Half and Half Hypothesis the 50
50 theory
Eerie as it may seem check your balance beam
Now check your Balance Beamer with
A feather and a rock
Whether or not you find the answer
Is really not the plot
See it's like love and hate (loveand hate)
The same emotion, different weight
People love to hate, so I know you know
Just how this all relates
It's the posa- and the nega-tive
Mini and mega live
Arm, a leg, a leg, an arm, headed by a nigga
Like big and small, short and tall
Night and day and so on
Some people are bashful
Some people just love to get their flow on
(they flow on) so here goes one to grow on
I'm a go on and on and on
Till the principles are laid out
The scales of justice weighed out
'til your memory starts to fade out
And your game of life is played out
Got to balance out the power, don't we?
Balance your emotions
Push and pull positions
Like the moon pulls on the
Ocean, balance on one foot
That's equilibrium
Opposites attract and retract, that's a fact
(I'm a Libra y'all)
180 degrees, but not that hot
So whether or not you find the answer
Is really not the plot (really not the plot)
Because, giving is receiving
(and) and seeing is believing (and)
And the solar system
Rotates so harmonious and even
It's perfectly balanced

Some people say life is about taking chances
Choices and decisions
Voices and opinions, politics and religion
Clues to the past and cash
And keys to the future
It's a possibility and probability
On who's gonna execute yo ass
Some slow and analytical
Some quick fast on the dash
Like heads or tails
But the head usually leads the tail
So I tell my tales from the head
Cause they're embedded inside my cells
Real quick, let me tell you about a fact
I know things will even out
You can disbelieve or doubt, or even shout
Or leave it in your mouth
Cause, how you gone reason with grand
Mother Nature?
Running Mother Earth, controlled
By Father Time, who's the chaser?
It's living and dying homey
Laughing and crying dude
Trying or lying my brother
Walking or flying fool
Now half of you are gone
Find the time to shine
The other half? 'Gon' find
Crime, money, weed, wine
Till it's too late
In a disillusion state of mind
I just found my peace of mind
Now they want a piece of mine
Too late in a disillusion of mind
The orthodox is the unorthodox
They just got you on the names
The insane and the sane, are the same
It's a damn shame
So many people's aim is so lame
And their gain is so minimal
Caught up in the subliminal
It's pleasure and pain, water for the flames
The wild and the tame
The style still remains
If you use the right side of your brain
Instead of going against the grain
You can penetrate the vein
To the point where what remains is a stain
Of this universal thang That we call Balance
(balance)
