get it - truth universal lyrics
verse i
mental enslavement and pavements have blood stains
single mama pain smack dab in flood plains
hood supermarkets don’t even carry no whole grains
evading diabetes as well as the blown brains
where some don’t mind dying for wards they proclaim
surroundings in which i was raised and maintained
but on the open market, these stocks get low gains
if you ain’t smoking strains or rockin’ that cocaine
me i rock mics, cross borders and make change
on, p-ssenger trains, cars, buses and jet planes
20 cities just to boost the recognition of name
not an irene cara type that be lookin’ for fame
to be the most popular was never the aim
to empower and make wack cats step up they game
you got a problem tell me bout it, ain’t no b-tch in my veins
forever for the people won’t be switchin’ no lanes
chorus:
failure came knocking, i never let it in
heard the beats droppin’, was ready to begin
losing? forget it, we set it for the win
get it, moving, crackin’, poppin’—in!
get it, moving, crackin’, poppin’—in!(4x)
verse ii
these young cats want direction, i give ’em my spiel
lay it out in black and white like heidi + seal
somebody try to discover you, it’s best that you yield
discovered people got smallpox in blankets concealed
decimated after teaching preparation of meals
exported 9000 miles to pick cotton in fields
i once waited on this one cat to gimmie a deal
masquerading pro-black b-tch n-gga wasn’t for real
when we’d speak, my release date he’d never reveal
felt like two technics, he was spinning my wheels
said between commercial and conscious he would level the field
tried to switch my st–z up, we didn’t congeal
stifled my momentum, fate almost got sealed
i was out like the clampets in that automobile
if it go commercial, wouldn’t from switching my feel
like rocksteady flashdancing w/ jennifer beal
chorus
verse iii
i live along the mississippi, as once did choctaw
most times rhyming, i hold the microphone southpaw
big daddy kane, juice crew, it’s undoubtedly raw
mc shan, shante, authentic, down by the law
man, i’m cold…and still stay fresh when i thaw
kept grinding, because success i foresaw
professional presentation leave spectators in awe
we left the static in on purpose, no it wasn’t a flaw
storm hit and for life had to tooth and to claw
people suffered, and who prospered? halliburton and shaw
i worked for almost everything that about me you saw
dueling with the industry, take 10 paces and draw
petty criticism, that’s the back breaking straw
these blog n-ggas bout to f-ck around, get bust in they jaw
promoters think we rock free, aw family naw
hit your financial inst-tutions and proceed to withdraw
chorus
