Roots - The Lesson Part 3 (It's Over Now) lyrics

rate me

[Black Thought]<br />

Well it's the raw regees, thoroughbred from Philly<br />

My name Black Thought, my girl's the Black LILIES<br />

Some people try to front like "I ain't feelin it really"<br />

But that's silly, 'cause how the fuck you can't feel me?<br />

When I first felt it, I knew it had to be dealt wit<br />

Alot of ice-grillin in the house got melted<br />

Some tried to put up a fight, but they was helpless<br />

You ain't try to turn that loose, you too selfish<br />

Gimme that, guess who bringin the "Get busy" back<br />

Women say the sound of my voice, the Afrodeziac<br />

Okayplayer.com, where you can hit me at<br />

E-me and when I'm in your town, come see me<br />

The Real World for real, this ain't your MTV<br />

The illest INNERVISIONS since Stevie on wax<br />

My vocal like serve-o forty-eight tracks<br />

The fact of the matter is a matter of fact<br />

That it's the Black Thought, controllin like Ike Turner<br />

You wanna get wise, you best to be a fast learner<br />

Or just relax and peep how it's done<br />

And boogie ya ass to what's about to come because<br />

<br />

Chorus[Jaguar] *singing*<br />

The Lesson, now it's now, we close shop<br />

We got it locked, it's over now<br />

<br />

[Dice Raw]<br />

Aiyyo Dice's flows, hit idiots like crossbows<br />

Knock em out the atlas, push em off the atlas<br />

I'm laugin, lookin down from off top the totem<br />

Hop off my pedastall, grab my scrotum<br />

Aiyyo y'all niggas ain't FUCKIN wit this shit <br />

(I told em) Aiyyo y'all ain't FUCKIN wit the Roots crew (I told em)<br />

The rap is a riot yeah 'cause my family bouncin<br />

Soon as the name, Dice Raw is announced in<br />

The arena, the grass is greener on the other side<br />

I hit the stores, twenty-five thousand die<br />

Now tell who the best in off the top in the world<br />

I'll give you a hint, the same guy that's fuckin your girl<br />

I just didn't have parents, The Roots found me in the trash<br />

But still, a nigga got a lot of class<br />

Trick wit my pinky-finger up off the glass<br />

Keep talkin shit homeboy, that's your ass<br />

<br />

Chorus<br />

<br />

[Malik B]<br />

It's just the simple part of the gam(e)<br />

I guess it's just the art of the scam<br />

Check for your soul 'cause it departed again<br />

M-ill-i-tant is atomic, you fall from the sky just like a comet<br />

Move out till the bottom of my shoes out<br />

How many tracks do you bout?<br />

How many of these niggas you doubt?<br />

How many of these ladies makin you shout?<br />

You on a mission so listen to this<br />

Ask yourself what condition is this<br />

Sick in the ?wist?, I rap on a satellite disk<br />

You gotta like this, askin me about the way that I stroll<br />

About the way I enfold, in scrambling mode<br />

You're like that, don't bark cat, bite back<br />

What up Blood? Is things still the same in the hood?<br />

While I sit I gotta get dub, and wish I could plug<br />

They thoughts'll leave em stiff in the mud, you wannabe thug<br />

In section eight, houses were hush up under the rug<br />

The shit I spit is hummin wit slugs, get soaked in the suds<br />

<br />

Chorus 3x
