Afros.... yeahhh

AFROS! Yeahhh

Brothers be out there doin crack... NOOOOOOO

They be doin dope... NOOOOOOO

They be gangbangin! NOOOOOOO

All them brothers need to just

pause

Yeah I'm with that

Here comes the Afros, and the forty ounce crew

Who say slowly but surely, we gonna turn the mother out

We got more, in store, young ladies on the floor, so cool out

pause

Intro, which means I start it

In other words, herbs departed

Pause, stop for the cause

Get up, get down, you get yours

Chill, no time to get ill

Word to herb -- yeah it's the will of God

So whassup Hobbes?

Just jock, clock, rock, and don't stop but

Pause

Pause, pause for the cause, get yours

But don't break laws

Quit, quit it, forget it

Pause, say your way with it

Pause, if you did it, admit it

Cause, you shouldn'ta did it

Next time, you think of doin a crime

Pause, and remember this rhyme

Pause for the cause, cause broken laws

Are just like broken jaws

They take a long time to heal

I'm for real, and I know the deal

Look it over, investigate

Evaluate, think!

Life is wrong, and full of flaws

Before you break laws just pause!

I think that worked man [4X]

Pause

Yeah pause, this beat is dope D

I'm tellin you, this beat is dope, just slammin, it's dope

Well if it's dope, I hope it's not crack

or coke, or nuttin like somethin you EVER smoke

And if they offer you some say NO

or pause

The reason I wrote this rhyme, is not to climb

But just to tell all mankind

That the use and abuse of drugs -- will what?

Will, blow, your, mind

Like dough makes bread, it goes straight to your head

You're misled and then you're dead

Now that's not fly, when you die

On a high

Like a trip, oooh, you make me sick

Ill, lookin like doo doo on a stick

You don't have to be a vic

Life is like a flick, so pause

Pause, p-pause, pause, p-p-pause

Alright y'all, now that you understand

My man Run never ran

I'm gonna take this mic yo my hand

And hand this to the one man band

Now pause, now pause

I'm Jay, I make up the trey

Now check out the dance that I display

It's called the pause

A new thing, on the dancefloor

First you move, then you stop

Combine the hustle, foxtrot, pop and lock

Put em all together why because

It's called the pause

Slammin, the dance is slammin

Pause, the people are jammin

Stop again, back to the groove

I show you how to move

pause

It's simple, just like stop and go

You can pause on the fast or slow

Participate, won't you all get down

Here's a solo from my homeboy Stanley Brown

Ahh yeah, I like this R&B shit...

Pause, pause, one more time!

Yeah, do that, do that...

Now pause!
