The Roots, Joanna Newsom, STS - Right On lyrics

Hit it!

We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on
We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on

Yo, I try to get it how I live it
A lot of people counting on
Me kinda like a digit it's a cold world
I'm not fronting like it isn't
It's no time for coming up
Shorter than a midget
Y'all know I'ma raise the
Bar though like Brigitte
See there a star go, don't blink
You might miss it it's precious cargo
You gotta be strong to lift it
The light comes in different types
Be more specific shit, I'm Black Thought
What could be more prolific? For this love
I go above and beyond the limit
I told y'all I'm above and beyond a gimmick
I get into your head and
Spread like a pandemic
I never put myself in a race I can't finish
I'm well grounded
Founded on the same premise
As any man with a
Hitlist that's about business
Yo, can a brother get a witness? Dig it
Right on
We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on
We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on

Okay, I'm above and beyond hot
My measurement in watts
Time rate of flow and energy
Ain't never gon' stop
Pressure's on, I won't pop
Microphone I won't drop
Gemstones niggas cop ain't shit if
I ain't in the spot
It's the Orion of the hop
The new star of the hip
I shine a light for the future
So my presence's a gift
It's evident I'm heaven sent
With Thomas Edison elements
Reverence for what I represent
Should show my benevolence this is Philly
I'm repping for the art of the city
Came from southwest Atlanta
Gave my heart to the city where slugs fly
Thugs cry cause every part of it's gritty
Niggas shooting up the club like
They party with Diddy
You get the diggy? I flip
My incandescence to fluorescence
And in essence I can burn more
Joules of energy per second
I put them on to lessons while
I'm smoking on the blessing
The switch hitter like Pete Rose
Right up the session right on

We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on
We should shine a light on, a light on
And the Book of Right On is right on
It was right on

Take it to the very top
Another track, I'ma do the snare roll
