Roots - The Next Movement (Live) lyrics

rate me

[Black Thought]<br />

C'mon.. and yes y'all<br />

You are now in tune to the sounds..<br />

Of the legendary.. foundation<br />

Yeah, you go<br />

Hey you listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

You listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

Word up, we got the HOT-HOT music, The HOT MUSIC (1X)<br />

The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music (3X)<br />

Yo, one, two, one-two one-two<br />

That's how we usually start, once again it's the Thought<br />

The Dalai Lama of the mic, the prime minister Thought<br />

This directed to whoever in listening range<br />

Yo the whole state of things in the world bout to change<br />

Black rain fallin from the sky look strange<br />

The ghetto is red hot, we steppin on flames<br />

Yo, it's inflation on the price for fame<br />

And it was all the same, but then the antidote came<br />

The Black Thought, I'll syllablist, out the Fifth<br />

This heavyweight rap shit I'm about to lift<br />

LIKE, a phyllum lift up it's seed to sunlight<br />

I plug in the mic, draw like a gunfight<br />

I never use a cordless, or stand applaudless<br />

Sippin cholorophyll out of I'll silver goblets<br />

I'm like a faucet, monopoly's the object<br />

There ain't no way to cut this tap, you got ta get wet<br />

Your head is throbbin and I ain't said shit yet<br />

The Roots crew, the next movement, c'mon!<br />

And yes y'all<br />

You are now in tune to the sounds<br />

Of the legendary, foundation, check it out, uh<br />

Testin, yo, you go<br />

Hey you listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

You listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

Word up, we got the HOT-HOT music, the HOT music (1X)<br />

The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music (3X)<br />

Word up, the formation of words to fit<br />

That's what I usually disturb you with<br />

A lot of rappers never heard of this, or know half the time it is<br />

You doubt the Illa-Fifth, what could you accomplish?<br />

Whether they skywriting your name, or you anonymous<br />

You be speechless, with stinging sinuses<br />

The Roots royal highnesses through your monitors<br />

I tilt my crown, then blow down a diamond kiss<br />

You need to buy a CD and stop rewindin this<br />

I'm the finalist, shinin like a rugged amethyst<br />

And at your music conference, I'm the panelist<br />

Listen close to my poetry, I examine this<br />

Like an analyst, to see if you can handle this<br />

Check it out<br />

You, got the groove, emcees<br />

Freeze, stand still, nobody move<br />

Unless you dealin with The Next Movement<br />

The P-Phi-D we be the mon-u-ment<br />

I live my life nice, but I'm not too bent<br />

You theatrical as a Broadway play, this ain't Rent<br />

One hundred percent, straight out the Basement<br />

Spreading this across a planet on some next shit<br />

How many people feelin this love music? C'mon<br />

Yo, you go<br />

Hey you listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

You listeners, stop what you're doin and<br />

Set it in motion, it's the next movement<br />

Yo, we got the HOT-HOT music, the HOT music (1X)<br />

The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music (7X)
