MISSY ELLIOTT - Outro lyrics

rate me

(feat. Mary J. Blige)

[Missy Elliott]

Check it

See I don’t want to say that this is the end

I’ll end by saying this is where we’ll begin

Hip hop is a freedom of expression, not a freedom of depression

Can I make my one suggestion?

Look at how we’re labeled gangsta rappers

Is that their only impression? WAKE UP!!!!!

Rappers are craft art in a rapper’s sport

Someone like a game of basketball can’t be taught

But yet we accept the name thug

Like that’s fly

See how they covered our eyes?

Give us names to separate us

Sit back and watch us beef and make us hate us! SAY WHAT!?!?!

I’m done talking

Mary J. Blige, let ‘em know this is not a test

I hear you calling

[Mary J. Blige]

What you hear is not a test (Oooh!)

I’m rocking to the beat (I’m rocking to the beat)

See me and my crew and my friends

We’re gonna try to move your feet (Move around, move around)

See I am Mary Blige and I’d like to say, “Hello” (Thank you for inviting me)

To the black, to the white, the red and the brown, the purple and yellow.

But first you gotta…

But first you gotta…
