Hah respect!

All crew all massive everywhere in the world

You practice the art of hip hop

This goes out to every boy and every girl

Give me relief! I sing!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us!

Check it

All beef can be squashed if you want it

But instead of forgiveness ego you flaunt it

Everybody gets into two or three quarrels

Leadin to a squabble, someone will die tomorrow

Life is not a thing you can borrow

All beefs don't have to lead to sorrow

will ya, go out tomorrow

I think, you should think about the beef you got

And confront your enemy before it gets too hot

Never feel ashamed, to say, "Yo G I'm sorry

I apologize," the object is to stay alive

(paraphrasing Kool Moe Dee from "Self Destruction")

I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan

and I shouldn't have to run from a black man

(a group says it together)

I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan

and I shouldn't have to run from a black man

Yeah!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us!

He said she said, but she said she didn't

Face gets hit, and then, bullets start spittin

No one's admittin to their wrong doing, unfittin

revenge we're pursuin, look at what you're doin, LISTEN

Release the calm and that should carry it

Be a mental vegetarian indulge in no beefs, like the

fish in the aquarium, you'll enjoy it while you're tryin it

There is no seperation between the mind and the environment

Like a bolt of lightning

I'm givin 5000 volts of the occult while I'm writin and recitin

I've come to enlighten black and white to the meaningless fightin

Clash of the titans ain't right

and it's wrong so the song reflects

for too long we've been vexed at each other

Every sister, every brother..

You've gots ta LOVE one another

(paraphrasing Kool Moe Dee from "Self Destruction")

I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan

and I shouldn't have to run from a black man

(a group says it together)

I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan

and I shouldn't have to run from a black man

Yeah!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! Check it

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! Ha hah

Give me relief! (That's right)

Squash all beef!

If I ruled the schools, from pole to pole

the entire judicial system would fold

I would get rid of the books cause they bogus

and in school, Knowledge of Self would be the focus

Kids would flock to the schools like locusts

Cause school now relates to them, and you would notice

violence in society would be a minimal

Cause the education yeah, would now be metaphysical

Not livin by laws, but livin by principal

If you disobey, the UNIVERSE gets with you

We would study giving so no one would steal

And we would read each other's magnetic fields

Petty crimes times petty crimes

equals prison for lifetimes

The universe divided by two

equals me and you

Me and you, go into the universe once

or as one united front

But listen up, when I was growin up in hip-hoppin

we had a thing called Jailhouse Boxin

That's why I'm STILL here rockin

cause my competition never pulled a Glock in, yeah

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! Yeah!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing!

Give me relief! Squash all beef!

Don't let these arguments destroy us!
