Mos Def - Quiet Dog lyrics
rate me<BR>
<i>[Femi Kuti speaking]</i><br>
One thing I want to assure them,<br>
If they think I'm gonna change or compromise<br>
My attitude and my way of life or<br>
In my expression or in my goal<br>
What's politics<br>
They are making me stronger<br>
And I am much much stronger now..<br>
<br>
<i>[Mos Def]</i><br>
Check a blank to the boogie<br>
And up chuck a boogie<br>
To the rhythym of the boogie to be <i>[x2]</i><br>
There it go like simple the plainness<br>
The prominent bassness<br>
Zulu arrangement rockin' amazement<br>
Fly gold, radiating from heaven to pavement<br>
If only years of placement with nothing to play with<br>
Spent time hating but that ain't changing it<br>
God give it to me no body ain't savin' it<br>
Therefore, moving on the base in stammerment?<br>
Standing in the twilight and watching them get it in<br>
Walls, simmering, the air, simmering<br>
She movin' like more than the airs is glistenin'<br>
Woah now<br>
Testin' your ate in the delirium<br>
Sounding fate booming all over your eminence<br>
Skin on skin again<br>
Put it all, get it all,get in then<br>
Ladies and gentlemen, misters and mistresses<br>
.... or entrants and simil men<br>
There it is, boogieman<br>
<br>
Hah<br>
Simmer down simmer down simmer down now<br>
Simmer down now <i>[x3]</i><br>
Quiet dog, wild hog my god<br>
<br>
And the rocket don't stop<br>
Brooklyn and the kids heat up the stovetop<br>
Banging the empire state and navigating the way<br>
Your preservation makes the greatest hip hop<br>
The cool dudes swagger little cherry be corny<br>
The flow so steady unsteady is boring<br>
These dudes ain't through with their yawning<br>
<br>
Need to get off it<br>
So wack wack is all you can call it<br>
Therefore, movin on the deaf is sumblin<br>
Regardless of ...what town your representin<br>
A bullet in the audience settlement<br>
Tower the tenement<br>
I mold through for all of the element<br>
Simmer down<br>
I manage your mayhem<br>
I'm bright as the AM<br>
And you're rocking more like a station<br>
I'm blessed with the fresh from day one<br>
I got it from day done<br>
We all going back to the same one<br>
It's the cost of motivation I'll stay with<br>
Remarkable flavors<br>
That all is a market of greatness<br>
<br>
Woah now<br>
Is to get us to buck town<br>
Your girl is in love now<br>
You thought it so funny<br>
Shorty is down, Shoo<br>
<br>
<i>[Sirens]</i><br>
Simmer down simmer down simmer down now<br>
Simmer down now <i>[x3]</i><br>
Quiet dog, wild hog let's rock<br>
<br>
Hah<br>
And we don't stop<br>
See you rock to the rhythm we don't stop<br>
So you maintain the rock and you don't stop<br>
You keep up the rock and you don't stop<br>
(The rock)<br>
Maintain the rock and you don't stop<br>
(The rock)<br>
You keep up the rock and you don't stop<br>
(The rock)<br>
Maintain the rock and you don't stop<br>
(The rock)<br>
<BR><BR>
<BR>
