Relax Your Mind W/the Music - You Know What We Do You Know What We Do

Sit Back and Vibe W/this True Shit

This Isn't Really What You Think It Is

That Is If You're Even Thinkin' in the First Place

The First Place Isn't Always the Winner

And Winnin' Isn't Everything

And This Is Not a Race

I Am Not a Android I Am Not a Mongoloid

I Am Not Annoyed By the Void in Your Brain

This Is Not a Trick Son You Are Not a Victim

You Are Just a Man B-boyed Out the Game

Let Me Explain

Abstract Are You Fresh?

Ain't Nobody Fresher

But It's Hard to Get Around W/out Some Clown Tryin' to Test Ya

Acey Are You Dope?

Dopest in the World

I Give It to the Moms and Pops I Give It to the Boys and Girls

Oh So You a Family Man?

Aren't We All Aren't We All

Yes We Are

Trying to Make Jams Man and Expand My Repertoire

We Got to Keep It True We Got to Keep It True - Relax Your Mind W/the Music

You Know What We Do You Know What We Do - Sit Back and Vibe W/this True Shit

Well I Be Arrangin' Thoughts in My Brain Cell Family

<?rapidly?> Embarking On Incredible Creative Routes

Understanding Me Is Truth Shining Like a Lie

When I Say Break Wide I Mean Take Trips Not Just in Your Ride

In Your Mind

Cause When You Left You're Right On Time

The Sun'll Come Out Tomorrow and It'll Set in the West

So I Don't Sweat the Rest

Who Wanna Inhale Stress

Keep It True

You Know We Keep It True - We Keep It True We Keep It True We

Keep It True

You Know We Keep It True - You Know What We Do You Know What We

Do

We Got to Keep It True - the W the W the W

We Got to Keep It True

Relax Your Mind W/the Music - and Keep It True and Keep It True

Sit Back and Vibe W/this True Shit

The World Is Full of Bullshitters

Liars and Triers and Quitters

Could-a-beens Wanna Be's Thought-i-was Isn't-i-is's

And Everybody in Your Business

Damn

Now What Is Really Your Main Aim

When You Are Just a Blotch and a Stain On the Planetary Plane

Just Another Name in the Phone Book of Fame

Bustin' Out the Seams It Seems You Haven't Gained Enough

To Be Seen in the Right Scene

Your Thoughts They Seem So Convincing Hmmm

But Your Actions Don't Follow Through

Remember

Never Say Never Because It Never Comes True

Your Thoughts They Seem So Convincing For Instance

You Told Me That You're a Level Higher

Liar

Element of Desire Earth and the Wind and the Fire

Not

You Ain't Even Halfway Hot

Not Lukewarm You Don't Got no Form

You (...?...)

All Caught Up in Bein' Waterproof

When You Shoulda Been Tryin' to Catch Up W/the Truth

For All Intent and Purposes Your Life On Earth Ain't Worth It's Weight In

Gold

That's Probably Why You Get Blowed

Cause People Tell People Things and People Sell People Things

That Are Useless and Irrelevant

And It Stifles My Intelligence

I Stay True

You Know We Keep It True - and We Keep On and Keep On and Keep On

You Know We Keep It True - We Keep It True We Keep It True

You Can Mumble Jumble If You Got Somethin' to Say

But I Doubt It's Gonna Affect Me I Row My Boat Steady

Everready Is My Battery Description

Meaning I'm Equipped to Take Long Trips

And My Brain Cells Overload When I Get Blowed

Gotta Bring It Down There's a Point Where the Joint Stops

Being Passed Through the Fingers of a Rhyme (?singers?)

The Smoke From My Last Hit Still Lingers

Bring Us Your Tired and Your Weary and Your Poor

I'm a Take You Higher While You're Hearing Metaphors

And Similes

Assimilation of New Creation

Mind Emancipation

Rhymes Command the Nation

And So On and Therefor and Such and Such

Dust to Dust I Thrust From the Ground

W/no Where Else to Go But Up L.a. Is Where I'm Found

Throwin' Up Sets and Blowin' Up Sets and Goin' Up Stepney

About to Get a Heavy Track

(?or Jimmy in the Spot?)

Or Plenty of Hip Hop Goin' Round Three

Heavyweights It's Your Time So Register

Foundate Your Legacy We Serve All Them Replicas

True Style True Style?

True Style New Style

You Know We Keep It True - We Keep It True We Keep It True We Keep It True

You Know We Keep It True - the W and Every Crew We Keep It True

We Got to Keep It True - From Me to You Do What You Do Just Keep It

True

We Got to Keep It True - Relax Your Mind W/the Music

Now I'm Gonna Take My Last Verse On a Good Note

You Better Prepare Your Footnotes

Hold Your Wigs Tight

Open Up the Middle

(?center Me in the More?)

Words Are the Foundation Action Is the Building and Unity

And the Concept to Result in Logic and the Use of Logic

Now the Object to Be Neutral Partial to a Judgement

And the Subject's Concentration Here Is the Pop Quiz

What Hip Hop Is

You Know We Keep It True - Relax Your Mind W/the Music

We Got to Keep It True - Sit Back and Vibe to This True Shit

The Wrong Thing to Do Is Stop
