Talib Kweli, Madlib - What Can I Do? lyrics
[Talib Kweli, Madlib - What Can I Do? lyrics]
Swim in the ocean
And boats were made to sail on the sea, yeah
(What can I do?) What-what can I do? (yeah)
Yo, I try to get it here, get it there
Everywhere
(What can I do?) What-what can I do?
So I spit it clear, persevere, interfere
With the status quo the baddest
Flow throughout the hemisphere
There ain’t no pretenders here
Only real men is here
If you see a chick she down
To ride like she Guinevere
Better yet the Queen of Sheba, Aretha
Queen Latifah
I’m the boss like I need Shareefa
Boss? You ain’t my boss you don’t
Run shit up in here
I don’t know who the hell
You think talkin’ to i’m
Gonna take that shit and bounce
I don’t know who the
Hell you think you are i ain’t got no boss
See I call her baby like she 3 years old
When she fully grown so these
Dudes is pullin’ on
She in the club like a stone cover
Fully blown speaking in the girly tone even
Though you got a attitude
I can’t stay mad at you
We’ll have our quarrels (Word)
And you’ll upset me
(Tell me what can I do) What-what can I do
Nothing, cause if I said that I don't
Need you I was frontin’ so
(What can I do?) What-what can I do?
Nothing, every time you said you
Leavin’ you was bluffin’
Back in the days I had dreads like Lil’ Jon
And got numbers armed with nothin’ but
A pen and a little charm
Everything I’m saying be
Littered with observation
So I stand up for the
Dudes with limited conversation
You looking at a star
It's all in the constellation
Haha, you ain’t no star haha
You know you really losing your
Mind i don’t know who told you that shit
You really feeling yourself
She tried to tie me up but
She can’t tie me down
She ain’t never cried a tear
But she cryin’ now she tried to leave me
Coming back cause she can’t forget me
I gotta be strong so she can’t disrespect me
We’ll have our quarrels (Word)
And you’ll upset me
(Tell me what can I do) What-what can I do
Uh uh uh uh yeah
(What can I do?) What-what can I do?
Uh uh uh yeah let’s, let’s go, uh
Let’s, let’s go, uh
And boats were made to sail on the sea, yeah
(What can I do?) What-what can I do? (yeah)
Yo, I try to get it here, get it there
Everywhere
(What can I do?) What-what can I do?
So I spit it clear, persevere, interfere
With the status quo the baddest
Flow throughout the hemisphere
There ain’t no pretenders here
Only real men is here

To ride like she Guinevere
Better yet the Queen of Sheba, Aretha
