rate meSong by The Roots<br /><br>
[Black Thought] <br>
C'mon.. and yes y'all <br>
You are now in tune to the sounds.. <br>
of the legendary.. foundation <br>
<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>
<br>
Word up, we got the HOT-HOT music, The HOT MUSIC [1X]<br>
The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music [3X]<br>
<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 infliction on a price for fame <br>
and it was all the same, but then the antidote came <br>
The Black Thought, ill 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 ill silver gauntlet <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>
<br>
And yes y'all <br>
You are now in tune to the sounds <br>
of the legendary, foundation, check it out, uh <br>
<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>
<br>
Word up, we got the HOT-HOT music, the HOT music [1X]<br>
The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music [3X]<br>
<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 dime a 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 choopid <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>
<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>
<br>
Yo, we got the HOT-HOT music, the HOT music [1X]<br>
The HOT-HOT music, the HOT music [7X]<br>
<br>
