Talib Kweli, Norah Jones - Soon the New Day lyrics

And nature's game once more begins

Here we go like, yes yes ya'll
To the beat ya'll ain't no sleep ya'll
To the break of dawn
Five o'clock in the morning
We keep rockin' on
The workin' people runnin' like the
Stop clock is on
We got it poppin' in the meat market
Chicks take a seat, park it
By the bar so they can meet
The vic with deep pockets
And them dudes buy them cars and turn
'em in to sweet objects of desire
Big rims and them tires
We finna drop it like it's heavy as hell
The Clan of the Cavebear
Used to use the club to hit
And drag her by the hair
Still use the club to get her
A martini or a beer
Try to get her home and put the
Smell of sex in the air
Come through like the Cable Guy get 'er done
That 'ole hit 'n run
Turn 'em into bitter ones
Tonight is catch me if you can
You can taste the ginger bread
Ain't nothin' like wakin' up with
A stranger in your bed, nope

Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like
Where am I, what's your name
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn

Putting on some Airs king For a Day
Hard to face your fears we wear
The mask like Cory McKay
You have a ball today it's all a masquerade
Shorty paint her face like a clown
But can't take away the frown
Found under the make-up
I asked her, what's your passion
Answered, what's the paper
She sleepin' and they don't want
Her to wake up
Maybe then she'll realize her own beauty
Baby, you a star and not just a
Star on some dude's home movies

Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like
Where am I, what's your name
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn

Steppin' out, I got my best outfit on
Gotta get it in
I'm slippin' in the darkness like most
Of the day is gone
We up all night I wonder if can hang
We used to hang from a tree
Now we hang behind the rope, we VIP
We do it BIG ain't no need to see ID
The entire scenery shrouded in mystery
Clouded with greenery
Six girls to every three dudes
So you have half a chance if
You ask to have a dance
The ones ready to freak off
Don't need no romance
They belong to the sisterhood
Of the traveling pants
They got them hungry eyes
You know sensual trance
At a glance the alcohol
Got you sexually advanced
The truth is so boring you
Gotta pretend a little
The antidote is more colorful the
Rainbow that end in Skittles
And the quest to trap the cat
The game is your Tender Vittles to get
The bruce to say the sky's fallin
Like you Chicken Little, come on

Soon the new day breaks the dawn
Tomorrow I'll be like
Where am I, what's your name
Gotta go, I'm glad you came
But tonight you will be so fun
Maybe you're the one
Soon the new day breaks the dawn
