Talib Kweli - Space lyrics
[Talib Kweli - Space lyrics]
What we gon' do? We gon' work, we gon' play
We gon' lead the way
We gon' say everything that we need to say
Then get ghost in the breeze
To blow the leaves away and seize the day
It's like we're throwin' our seeds away
That ain't for me to say
Right? It ain't got to be this way
We gon' take charge, make gods out of men
We gon' raise bars, show y'all how to win
Hit the rally, hit the riot
Get the party started
Respect the word, you herbs
It's the Kwelity artist
Who solemnly promise my knowledge
Will demolish your college
And minus your scholarship
Acknowledge the dollars
And want me to payola
Man I don't even know that broad
I'm takin' over
Keep it fresh like bakin' soda
In your fridge, I keep it
Brooklyn like Jamaican soda, escovitch
That's how it is
And everything is everything
Time to move on to better things
Kwelity, in the club is
Probably where Kweli be
Steadily ignoring all the policies
No ID, rockin' shorts and tees
VIP, puffin' all sorts of trees
You must mistake me for one
Of them soft emcees
I ain't like the rest you often
See, get off of me, yo
Everybody, gimme my space
Everybody take four steps back
Somebody gon' get hurt
All fun and games 'til someone
Lose an eye or something
I ain't playin' with y'all
Everybody in the house, back up
Back up and gimme my space
There's enough room in here
For everyone to eat
Everyone to breathe, everyone to live
We can all get it if we get it together
Know what I mean, yo?
Come on, gimme my space just rock to this
Just rock to that
Everybody in the house, back up
Back up and gimme my space
Come on, just rock to this
We gon' lead the way
We gon' say everything that we need to say
Then get ghost in the breeze
To blow the leaves away and seize the day
It's like we're throwin' our seeds away
That ain't for me to say
Right? It ain't got to be this way
We gon' take charge, make gods out of men
We gon' raise bars, show y'all how to win
Hit the rally, hit the riot
Get the party started
Respect the word, you herbs
It's the Kwelity artist
Who solemnly promise my knowledge
Will demolish your college
And minus your scholarship
Acknowledge the dollars
And want me to payola
Man I don't even know that broad
I'm takin' over
Keep it fresh like bakin' soda
In your fridge, I keep it
Brooklyn like Jamaican soda, escovitch
That's how it is
And everything is everything
Time to move on to better things
Kwelity, in the club is

Steadily ignoring all the policies

Just rock to that

Back up and gimme my space
Come on, just rock to this
