Here is Violations Lyrics by Talib Kweli Ft. Raekwon

[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
Heed the battle call, check the catalog
Flow so crazy it's adderall with the padded walls
More twisted turns in the body [?] on the baddest broad
This [?] call is weak, my [?]
Your whole style stiffer than mannequins you see at a store
You [?] the shot to your Kenny, I mean the latter more
No ping pong and we volleying with the back and forth
Straight king kong and the trap we blasting off

[Verse 2: Raekwon]
You want Nigerian money, see me in Qatar drunk
Waving the [?] I can't fake the funk
Blessed with the belts, [?] in the stealth
Jury on the neck, diamonds in the [?]
You know I wrestle with pawns, gettin' my money we gone
The automatic [?]
You can't see us, the new phenoms are like the [?]
Split your wig like I got three arms
I need a [fiancé?], at least a Beyoncé
I know my vision beyond some other shit

I'm supposed to be on, the greenery gone
I'm still the king of the drama

[Verse 3: Talib Kweli]

I'm tryna get the check I'mma Martina Navratilova
Catch me at the races, gateway at Saratoga
They tryna place my face cause we mobbin' we taking over
My niggas keep it pure while you cut with the baking soda
These rappers be stretching the truth like they taking yoga
Couch potatoes now they made us into a vegetable culture
A result of the culture like it's a decimal quotient
Do the math my nigga, do the math
You never settle for less than the whole if you knew the half

[Verse 4: Raekwon]
Rough as alligator skin getting crazy quick
I'm so amazing with words I make a baby spit
Resting in Tibet, wild with the Gilette

Pocket full of coins, producers on set
Niggas with the coupes is on next
The losers gon' step, the users gon' check
We choosing our [?] the [?] is on deck
Refuse [?] pool with the [?]
Everybody see us, the crews is on text
Anything come through we screw on bet
Fuck you gon' tell us? He knew we on next

[Bridge 2: Talib Kweli]
They wanna act like they know me, you don't know me nigga
You got the baby boy hustle, you a [?] nigga
You wanna swim with the sharks, a chief [?] killa
Get your jaw tapped this is real rap, c'mon yea

'Colors of You' Lyrics - Talib Kweli Ft. Mike Posner
Here is Colors of You Lyrics by Talib Kweli Ft Mike Posner

(Intro)
Yea, been around the world made time
See many things
And in color too
I seen women so beautiful
That I could die with a smile on my face
And I’ll feel like the good Lord in me

This phase between love and hate

(Verse)
How you expect to have an ordinary relationship
With such an extraordinary nigga, yea this flow’s ain’t what you figured
Ain’t the liquor that got yo considering, calling up the sitter
Telling her you need a couple hours and before you tip er
I like my fantasies, how she trip a half glass slipper
Wrapping one like a riddle with enigma
Character in my flipper
Coming to life when I’m flippin through the pictures
Switchin up the positions, my karma karma chameleon
Change colors with the surroundings
I can hear you with my eyes and I’m loving the way you sounding
I’m smothering and I’m grinding out that is cat and meow
Loving in public when we coming in
Up against the cup until we… right on the couch
(Yellow on a bad day)
Knocking it out without a doubt

(Chorus)
Colors of you
Ayo the world is a coloring book
Look, new discoveries every time when I color outside the lines
Colors of you
Ayo the world is a coloring book
New discoveries every time when I color outside the lines
Color of you, yea

(Verse)
My self-expression require every color in the spectrum
My self-reflection make the light change direction
When you see it from this angle, the color that cut the clarity
Stars bringing me down, it’s the depravity and gravity
Having me in my blue phase, go off the grid for a few days
Go on a journey without a suitcase
The security of obscurity
In a world of respect and I’m trading it like it’s currency
Currently it’s soft as a mallet hitting the xylophone
He’s so yellow, I’m wishing this fellow right his wrong
Now in steady it’s synthetic and Styrofoam
Recite a poem, some monotone that ain’t monochrome
My light will poke through the clouds, I’ll take you higher like you smoking the loud
While I provide at your kaleidoscope of sound
You can see it with your ears, you can hear with your eyes
You can feel it right here yea

(Chorus)
Colors of you
You don’t look like turquoise
You don’t look like gold
You don’t look like purple
That’ll match on you
Ayo the world is a coloring book
Look, new discoveries every time when I color outside the lines
Colors of you
Ayo the world is a coloring book
New discoveries every time when I color outside the lines
Colors of you

Colors of you…

'New Leaders' Lyrics - Talib Kweli ft. The Underachievers
Here is New Leaders Lyrics by Talib Kweli Ft. The Underachievers

[Verse Annotate1: Talib Kweli]
Welcome to the new age where they're thirsty for that Kool-Aid
Thirsty for first in that page, really thirsty just to be fake
Be the first to hate what you say, trying to diss you calling you "gay"
Such an urgency to express himself, but really nothing to say
Don't fuck with us, we too tough, get high like you do drugs
Like spit me out I'm chewed up ([?] chopped and screwed up)
I know you up in this club, I know you don't give a fuck
You told me what you don't like, you made that clear, now what do you love?
It's gotta be more
Some live the life of the rich, some people gotta be poor
I've been through a door
I will not sell you a dream, that's what the lottery for
The music is clay, I shaped it, I molded it
Like it was pottery or the mouth with the law
Twist it like Robert Duvall, son, the godfather raw
Free as the diamond you found on the floor
Furnished the rhyme with the proper decor
I burnished the nine in my mind with the galore
So they burning with shaman, I'm popping the door
To top off the law
If your style is married to substance, you sound like you got a divorce
That's why I'm blocking and unfollowing y'all
I done forgot what I'm following for
Enough about y'all, now back to me
Ain't no academic leave, I'm not faculty
These new slaves ain't ready for my masterpiece
So when they hear me rap it's catastrophe
Cause a casualty so casually they mistake what I do for having beef
I don't actually wish anybody harm, now stretch your arms and clap for me

[Hook: Talib Kweli]
Wake up cause no you're not dreaming
Catch up with us cause we leaving
Got enough followers
I'm looking for some new leaders
I'm looking for some new leaders
I'm looking for some new leaders
Got enough followers
I'm looking for some new leaders

[Verse 2: AK]
Ever since the day I was born, that monster day I was chosen
To rise above them all and be a leader, I'm like Malcolm X when on the podium
Martin Luther with a dream, Rosa Parks on the bus
Though as funny as it seems it remind me of us
Through the money and the fame ain't shit gon' change for the light we adjust
Do it for the children without a ceiling to live up under
Times getting hard, that's why my niggas smoke that tropic thunder
If all our people spreaded love instead of evil
We would prosper our conscious to a level with no equal lethal
Stay true, I gave you my oath
What would the ancient God my, nigga [?]
Through all the books and the screens I was taught
I look at myself and pretend to learn the most
Our leaders dead and gone, what's left for the believers?
If you looking for the truth, one word: Underachievers, nigga

[Hook]

[Verse 3: Issa Gold]
As I change the so called predestined course of my life
Advance my shit so now I travel at the speed of light
Moving these intricate insecurities out of sight
Moving myself onward from the darkness into the light
I take flight, it's goodbye to all the negativity
That plague millions of young innocent souls like me
Gave me the genius mind state necessary
To feast off of this unlimited figurative tree
Of life, I tried to tell these niggas that I [?] move it
Something like [?] if you [?] evolution
As I fall asleep on these social forms of materialism
I wake up and go through more colors than your normal prism
Would you rest my soul, I'm blinding me to a fury of visions
In light of me on what to cut with such gifted precision
And now I'm truly livin' (bless up, bless up)
And now I'm truly livin' (bless up, bless up)

[Hook]

'One Two' Lyrics - Talib Kweli (Ft. Jae Millz & Oh No)
Here is One Two Lyrics by Talib Kweli Ft. Jae Millz & Oh No

(Verse 1)
One time for the husslers
Everyday block hunters by any means necessary
Out to get that money even if they on crutches
Tryna to ride foreign, coupes instead of city buses
And two times for the greens
That keep it tie and clean when they kin in the bin
Hold a nigga down like a thousand pound ankle bracelet
When that love is real look you be killing places
Nigga you fit in to the front
So you can see where I'm from before I tell you what I want
And I want it all,
I spit summer heat all through the winter
‘Cause when I spring to the top I don't wanna fall
All I'm in this bitch RIP Big L
Brooklyn in this bitch RIP BIG as well
And ride to the studio I bump life after
I walk into the booth and kill shit right after

(Verse 2)
One time for the guns , one time for the butter
We spread it like parkee
One time for the hunters , one time for the prey that's running
One time for the prey that almost got away
Two times for the rappers, two times for the singers
Two times for the players , two times for the ringers
To string us to be dodging the wires
To share bubbles and the problems who they are to say
They say you fucking up the game , you swear it isn't you
Ain't no subliminals but where if it fit the shoe
It's sorta cute of these rappers tryin' to be a natural
My attribute, give me your type acolytes when I'm passing through
I got draft, whipping is so priceless
Don't need your permission, a New York nigga with no license
Soon I might submit that you ackle me
Force honesty, better than force modesty

(Verse 3)
One time for my thug niggers
Is smartest then nerds, one time for my hood sub fading the ‘burbs
Two times for the motherfucker that's hating our nerf
Tell ‘em bite on the curp
Two times for the herbs when they working my nerves
Put your money where your mouth is nigga then change your words
I be hearing with a curve it ain't nobody skirt
Till we run into the city like rebels out in divert
Pick a side, any side it's like the war zone
They televise beef to let you know the war zone
I see shots, numbs niggers like quarter zones
They be acting hard but your body lacks a chromosome
MJ is like I'm playing on a quarter dome
‘Cause their style's dumb like tripping over a chords phone
I should hang ‘em up with that same chords
They acting like they don't know what the brain's for
Nigga

lyrics-video-music.blogspot.com

High rises, day breaks
Clouds hide the sun’s rays
Quick sand and mistakes
Smash walls to get through
I fight the good fight
Even on the bad days
It’s darkest before light
I’m gonna push through

Turbo charged bars
Slot cars on tracks, falling off, game stars in these rap wars
Ain’t nothing band-aids won’t cover
Touring with 7D coverage
Live bands, two buses, my own cash
No budget, no major label fundings, Jets baby
We went from crawling to walking to running
You can’t see nothing, you under gag order
Hopping out of Audi’s hurting y’all with kicks, I’m the Transporter
Think about it, never mind, you ain’t gotta
I’m already on some whole other, word to yo mufuckin self
Nobody else gon’ do it for ya, nobody else
Every now and then someone’ll offer ya help, but they ain’t doing nothing
‘Til they really see you tryna do something, I ain’t bluffing
Kush puffing on you jive turkeys
Stuffing stockings with these gifts
Audible applaudables homie take a wiff

High rises, day breaks
Clouds hide the sun’s rays
Quick sand and mistakes
Smash walls to get through
I fight the good fight
Even on the bad days
It’s darkest before light
I’m gonna push through

When you a man, action is what’s expected, nothing is spoken on
Producer never got time for no excuses, gotta go beyond
My flow is tom-foolery
I smoke these poor rappers so fast they call me ?
I beautifully exude the vibe that’s free of ambiguity
Ya goonery for the sake of goonery is cartoons to me
It’s coonery, it’s lunacy, let’s make a plane
Only way that you hang is attached to a tree
The moon talk to the sea and speak the body language fluently
She make it rain
When I’m on fire, she always try to douse me
Only reason that you make it rain is ‘cause your diamonds cloudy
I see you from a mile away when it get overcast
Old people feel it in they bones, invade your home like I broke the glass
And let myself in, fighting for freedom like the people in Tunisia
Spread through Sudan and Egypt, this the music for the movement
The score to your achievements, never join ‘em so you gotta beat ‘em
It’s carpe diem hey (hey) yeah

High rises, day breaks
Clouds hide the sun’s rays
Quick sand and mistakes
Smash walls to get through
I fight the good fight
Even on the bad days
It’s darkest before light
I’m gonna push through

Like kindergarteners
My vision’s bothered by vigilantes that harbor on street corners
Try your hardest to harvest bundles of weed on ya
The starving’ll speed on ya, stampede on ya
Impede on your pockets then pee on ya
Dreams of us living lavish in fabrics of fine linens
Spending, established, with women dining and laughing
But this environment got us violent, ready to crash in-
To society, take this driver seat, hope you fastened
Your seatbelts twice, when I rolled them dice, I crapped
So many times I can build casinos from scratch
Too many daps you might receive from the things you achieve, relax
That’s what my mental say, but my physical’s been detached, I’m on some other shit
Like fuck the government, take the higher rankings, where’s the mothership?
I made a covenant that I was changing by my luck is bent
Quite disgusting when reality ? where the fuck you been?
Left him face down like he was planking
In a cold world where old girl and her homeboy got a motive
You can bench curl your tribulations, that sensation’s insulting
Got a wifey or a mistress, nigga which one you indulging?
Regardless of who you pick know life’s a bitch when you ain’t focused nigga
I’m focused

High rises, day breaks
Clouds hide the sun’s rays
Quick sand and mistakes
Smash walls to get through
I fight the good fight
Even on the bad days
It’s darkest before light
I’m gonna push through

watch out! we run new york! (new york city)
my city, my home (new york, new york)
and you say new york city
new york
ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh, ahh, ahh

i’m from the home of the hustler, born with a mean mug
talk fast and we walk fast, keep up
step with a different rhythm
try to make the most of what little we been given by the city that we live in
where the wall street intellect and street smarts intersect
and “dog eat dog”‘s the law that’s in effect
tryin’ to get even for the odds that we overcomin’
so we can hear the sirens from the coppers but no one’s runnin’
no matter what we facin’ we don’t turn a cheak (bo!)
the highest currency is courage in these urban streets (bo!)
we in-a-gadda-da-vida where people poppin’ they heaters
we never follow our leaders p-preachers prophets and teachers
where lady liberty’s livin’ but we ain’t gotten to see her
i swear the cabs’ll run you over without stoppin’ the meter
b-b-but you can never count us, even when we down and out
with nothin’ to be proud about, still the people shoutin’ out

new (my city, my home)

yo, i’m from the home of the stick-up kid, we always show the streets love
talk fast, plus we walk fast, keep up
i step over gutter rainbows, wishing i could give away millions like i was maino
you know how the gutter slang go
if you listen to big l, ebonics was the meanest
the bombers made it tragic, but we rose up from the ashes
like the promise of the phoenix, i promise you we eatin’
won’t you stop bein’ greedy, we too hot for tv
panasonic or the zenith, i roll with brooklyn vegans
just for lookin’ leave ya leakin’, central bookin’ at the precinct
since a youth i grew up in new york, i draw the parallels
detention that was jail, snitches is the tattle tails
epitaphs is racial, “fuck how niggas and the crackers feel”
its tragic how our whips got more gadgets than the batmobile
the inspiration for gotham, the metropolitan’s rotten
stay on top of the problems, ’cause we comin’ from the bottom, got ‘em

new (my city, my home)

and you say new york city

ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh, ahh, ahh

as a teen i sold twenties, spendin’ my own money
steppin’ out my parents’ house the city was home to me
in riverside park we would kick it after dark
by the pier, with some beers, and the piff that we would spark
then run up in house parties and turn ‘em to our party
the neighbors would call cops, ’cause we would get wild rowdy
‘nother night, ‘nother page written in life’s journal
9 million stories in a city with 5 boroughs
different backgrounds but we came through the same struggle
dreamin’ of fame we wrote our names on the train tunnels
runnin’ ’round the city like rats in crawl spaces
catchin’ court cases for jackin’ north faces
chasin’ the fast life, we know that its too short
and breathin’ the air here’s like smokin’ a newport
my home is in new york like biggie in bed stuy
we live and we let die, the city of ny

Here is Distractions Lyrics by Talib Kweli @
lyrics-video-music.blogspot.com

You wish it was you, don’t you — why you asking?
Try to break the law of attraction
Get a piece of my attention like a fraction of a ration
Or a measly little morsel
They suck your blood and you believe in the immortals
We nocturnal like a sleeping disorder
See the water drawing away from the shore
This ain’t no ordinary storm
We fighting for a humanitarian cause
But have yet to show up in Darfur
The Arab Spring is what it’s called
But they looking at the pride before the fall
They say it ain’t about the spoils of war
But turn around and tell you how much more the oil will cost
Steal the land from the Native American and make our missiles Tomahawks
Make him a mascot, dress up like him for sport
As a final assault to his beautiful culture
Scavengers, feasting on the dead like a vulture
Snacking; how you keeping up with my rapping?
You barely keeping up with Kardashian
You caught up in distraction
It’s the living proof — you try to make the truth elastic as Mr. Fantastic
We recycling these rappers
Truthfully, these dudes is plastic
Coming through the front door blasting
I ain’t talking bout them e-mails
That you always send to the masses
That somehow end up in my trash bin
The game is distraction
Give a fuck if the President wear a flag pin
Rhyming is deep as holes Chilean miners are trapped in
Or the cracks in the earth under Asia Minor causing disasters
Deep cuts way above your minor infractions
Talk to people like children cause that’s how they acting
Hold their hands like minors in traffic
The captains of industry and the leaders of status quo
Have a deep-seeded fear of change
For them it’s strange — they wanna go
Back to the 50′s, they asking for a return
But them days is much blacker, for lack of a better term
We adapted to this culture, but this culture we had to learn
Came about as as natural as a perm on a pachyderm
These fascists have had their turn
We passing them German burners, them Lugers
The next shooters waiting for Superman, they get nothing but Lex Luthor
America’s nightmare, vivid as Fred Kruger
Our heroes are dead to us
Spirit that bled through us
Endear us with the spirit but the flow is so foolish
What you hearing is precision
The people so thirsty, what they seeing is mirages
But this passion Photoshopping and your YouTube collages
Coming through like Collossus
Exposing the false prophet
Taught how to do the knowledge so I’m never off-topic
A lie is like a potion
First it gets you open
Then you swallow whole straight for the truth
Fuck the chaser, skip religion and the politics
And head straight to the compassion
Everything else is a distraction

lyrics-video-music.blogspot.com

[verse 1 - mac miller]
dealing with everybody's opinion
trying to do me
only down one, i'm in the final
shooting threes
like i don't give a fuck
music we fuck, switch the position up
we love the things that keep on
bringing out the kids in us
been working all my life to do some different stuff
but people have the nerve to say
i'm young and haven't lived enough
i'm on the road, my girl so sad i'm gone
it's hard when i can't even find the time
to call my mom when she thinks i'm
going hollywood - i guess she probably should
it seems like people see the bad
and don't acknowledge good. i feel the shade
but i can see the sun, i'm cool
i got the time to feel the need to run, a fool
is what i've become, young and i'm dumb
been spending cake to get some bump in the trunk
drums with a pump, like some reeboks
see me from the treetops
they worry but they need not
heating like a teapot
now i think i'm cool cause i got a pair of shoes
a mug dog, a jacket with a polo logo
my cup always filled with henny
so no four loco
they should know, so..
i could go slow, you see that i'm
smooth now. used to ignore me
they study what i do now
with some help from kweli
and it's like on the beat
it's cool to say that my cypher complete

[verse 2 - talib kweli]
word. i'm so sick with the verbs i use
the words that heal us
they love how i kill it on stage, man
murder theaters
no wonder they call it a ?
sleep in a coffin, dead tired
exhausted from how often i be touring
so gangsta. like the occupation of made men
create chaos: my operation is mayhem
the movie never stopped, the frame change over
we add a map to the wolfpack: hangover
that hen is not a friend
i'm on that lagavulin
whatever substance, i abuse it like a
grown man. i'm not a kid no more
don't want to hold your hand and fall off
and make you shoulder-lean like you drove, fam
go in, like abraham reading all the signs
oh yeah, and don't forget to call your moms
same thing i told bow wow last year
take care of the fam

chorus

we don’t know no doctor no lawyer
lawyers doctors
never thought about college as being a border
daddies and fathers
the streets were our mothers
the blocks out fathers
mark the dollars
see the pimps in the corner
pushing their product

i’ve been pimp pimping since pim pimping
my grandfather did it and his grandfather ..in his van
since plaza .. now we switch and … to their backs
still addicted to the crack although i am not an user
seen a city get trashed like ….
trying to get them dollars like a lot of producers
embedded in my mind we gotta fly some gucci louis
few jewels no thousand dollars shoes
christmas swimming pools and use the music to do it
pimps never tell heir secrets .. the movement
.. automatic swag where we grew up was ruthless
now you try .. instead of picking up a book
we rather look at tv guides idolize white models
with their little white lies all the images of fathers
are just a bunch of white guys

chorus

let me holler dog .. bother for a minute
how you grow up in the hood you’re rich now and never come back again
that ain’t pimp what you think of windows and …
that ain’t him yes it is hello dog where the hell you’ve been?
hood living good living used to run with the big …
got cloud moved out got jumped .. in his business
..heard you said it in the magazine
last week was in amsterdam with that .. queen
exactly what you’re gonna do when folks don’t want you no more
don’t call you no more won’t treat you like a star no more
come back around here dog that’s all i know.. used to hang with you man
..you won’t gonna do a damn thing about it
you came too late and your fame was running out
it was you when .. lose their house
.. found thorugh word of mouth
the word is out you turned your back
you had your back what you’re gonna do now

chorus

these are role models

made the plan in my head and buck it up with the muscle
fuck being the best rapper they are respecting the hustle
i make it clear like a sample lead by example
taking trophy like the head of ….
sending me higher brazilian .. fire
all my .. radio the fm don’t play me
.. black white ration but it’s ok
get busy like a street team in a month release
please nigger try to be the big man and they know that .. the chicks are fan of me
and they can’t stand it running cause the crew .. standard
so remember before you start to stare niggers i am on .. i am gonna ..

Talib Kweli - Tater Tot Lyrics and Video

i'm just wondering what the heck is in our water supply
what the heck is in our oxygen supply
that creates a rainbow effect in the sprinklers?
what is oozing out of our ground
that allows this type of effect to happen?
it's not just around our sun and our moon any more
everywhere we look, the visible spectrum, is rainbows
this can not be natural
we as a nation have got to ask ourselves
what the hell is going on?
what is oozing out of our ground?

the day that i enlisted
was the result of a prior visit with jesus christ felt like i was lifted
then i got injured and the hospital was like a prison
fell out of touch with my faith i was nihilistic
they call me cyclops, cause i was blind in one eye
i'm out the army now i'm tryin to decide
how to properly fit in with civilians i'm used to killin
got me feelin all confused who the hero and who the villain
hopped in my red camaro, shot down the street like lead in a barrel
decked out in my veteran apparel
i drove aimlessly for miles until i saw this
country that'd want me to kill; i took a bullet for this muh'fucker
thousand miles later finally made a stop
small town restaurant, god damn the waitress hot
ordered tater tots, got her number, later that night

we was at the bar, takin shots 'til we fell in love
i said let's go las vegas and do this
knew this wasn't made for my soul
drove all night and was awakened to cold
she wanna play the slots, nicknamed her tater tot
cause of how we met, cool i need a shower, bet
found a motel on the strip, i'm checkin in
when out the blue some mexicans came in the lobby like they 'bout to shoot
some asians that was runnin down the hall with they guns brazen
now e'rybody pullin out they shit like it's an invasion!
the mexicans let them asians have it; asians had to fire back
'til they was outta bullets and the blood splattered everywhere
deal gone bad or somebody robbin
either way somebody's rotten all i hear is bodies droppin
i jump behind the front desk in the nick of time
the crook is on the floor, his blood made me slip and slide
but i'm the last man standin
a reflex made me grab a cannon out a dyin man's hand
then i noticed that a car was runnin
sack of guns on the floor plus unmarked bills by the hundreds
driver comin at me gunnin
sirens blarin in the distance cause the caps are comin
i spun around and i hit the deck
heard the bullets whiz by my ear i let off, hit him in the chest
quicker than the bullets left the chamber
i grabbed the sack off the floor hit the door with the bangers
lookin for my lady at the casino, she was in the zone
i said "we gotta go" she like "why?" and i'm like "c'mon!"
no need to gamble baby, here the lick
put the chips down we gotta go right now, this little shit
now we speedin down the i-15
first time i noticed that her eyes were green
gave her a gun and a magazine
i made her count the loot
but when she saw the score she pointed the gun at me
now she about to shoot (blam, blam blam)

Talib Kweli - How You Love Me Lyrics and Video (Ft. Blaq Toven)

[Intro]
I hear footsteps, in the dark
Feel like I’m goin fuckin crazy

[Chorus: Blaq Toven]
Every day since we first met
Can’t even eat a bit
I can’t seem to think straight
When I think about how you love me
Everyday is like a holiday
Something like Christmas Eve
My worst day is carefree
When I think about how you love me

[Talib Kweli]
When are we gonna grow up?
Why do I love you so much we so touched?
Excited by the drama we like when it show up
The fightin don’t slow up, I light you like close ups
And I call you my Calamity Jane, you like my fantasy
Love cause the same chemical reaction in the brain as insanity
Holidays drinkin wit’cha family… passionate folks
Imagine if they had they own reality show – actually no
Desire’s like fire; quit playin or get burned
or give it away on camera like Montana Fishburne
Our presence is a gift, a gift is our present
Breakup text call her a bitch under my breath
And then the makeup sex she forgive me in a session
I know she love me, she sendin a mixed message though

[Chorus]

[Talib Kweli]
You need a chick with some fire
I mean unless you want a wife cold as ice
Livin life with the biggest debutante
Me and you we considered the upper echelon
The only one I come out my fitted for in a restaurant
You can get it huh; remember I was takin your digits
Same night I was makin the visit
Make it the mission to make you cum
When we done sometimes you hate to admit it
You a little numb from the toys
and love the noise that you make when you run from the boys
and comfort your man, insane how we go so crazy with it
This the asylum, so we call relationships committed
You ain’t a bird I ain’t them others guys that get lost in the name
You the butterfly, and I’m the moth to your flame
Love is dying while the mother’s cryin
Big brother eyein me imposin their reality to Shutter Island

[Chorus]

[Talib Kweli]
Our love is like a Psycho or a trilogy, the drama is killin me
I’m grown but the little boy is still in me
We discuss monogamy polygamy, the I’s the probability
Your momma ain’t feelin me, it stung like a killer bee
How far from the tree do the apple fall?
The things I said – was it how I felt, was it the alcohol?
Or do I really hate her after all?
I apologize for the statements that I made to her
First I swallowed my pride, then I ate my words
I tried to pass it off acted like it was nothin
The fact is I was discoverin my appetite for destruction
Everything else is bland once you tasted filet mignon
When I’m full I’m takin you home, you a plate for later on
I’ll eat it up… or beat it up
Til your love runneth over, yo I need a cup

[Chorus]

Talib Kweli - I'm On One Lyrics and Video

[Talib]
Yeah.. my Lord.. yeah

[Verse 1: Talib]
We sell, crack to our own out the back of our homes
We smell the musk at the dusk in the crack of the dawn
We go through "Epidodes II," like "Attack of the Clones"
Work 'til we break our back and you hear the crack of the bone
To get by.. just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by
We commute to computers
Spirits stay mute while you eagles spread rumors
We survivalists, turned to consumers
To get by.. just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by
Ask Him why some people got to live in a trailer, cuss like a sailor
I paint a picture with the pen like Norman Mailer
Me and Willa raised three daughters all by herself, with no help
I think about a struggle and I find the strength in myself
These words, melt in my mouth
They hot, like the jail cell in the South
Before my nigga Core bailed me out
To get by.. just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by
We do or die like Bed-Stuy through the red sky
with the window of the red eye
Let the lead fly, some G. Rap shit, "Livin' to Let Die"

[Chorus: Background singers)
This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new and I jumped up
Feeling my highs, and my lows
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smokin, and stop drinkin
And I've been thinkin - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)

[Talib and background singers]
(ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by by by by by by)
(ba ba ba, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da bada, ba da badahh
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by by by by by by)

[Verse 2: Talib]

We keeping it gangster say "fo shizzle", "fo sheezy" and "stayin crunk"
Its easy to pull a breezy, smoke trees, and we stay drunk
Yo, I activism - attackin the system, the blacks and latins in prison
Numbers of prison they victim black in the vision
Shit and all they got is rappin to listen to
I let them know we missin you, the love is unconditional
Even when the condition is critical, when the livin is miserable
Your position is pivotal, I ain't bullshittin you
Now, why would I lie? Just to get by?
Just to get by, we get fly
The TV got us reachin for stars
Not the ones between Venus and Mars, the ones that be readin for parts
Some people get breast enhancements and penis enlargers
Saturday sinners Sunday morning at the feet of the Father
They need somethin to rely on, we get high on all types of drug
When, all you really need is love
To get by.. just to get by
Just to get by, just to get by
Our parents sing like John Lennon, "Imagine all the people watch"
We rock like Paul McCartney from now until the last Beatle drop

[Chorus: Background singers]
This morning, I woke up
Feeling brand new and I jumped up
Feeling my high's, and my low's
In my soul, and my goals
Just to stop smoking, and stop drinking
And I've been thinking - I've got my reasons
Just to get (by), just to get (by)
Just to get (by), just to get (by)

[Talib: repeat 2X - with background singers]
Yoyoyo, yo
Some people cry, and some people try
Just to get by, for a piece of the pie
You love to eat and get high
We decieve when we lie, and we keepin it fly

Yoyoyo, yo
When, the people decide, to keep a disguise
Can't see they eyes, see the evil inside
But there's people you find
Strong or feeble in mind, I stay readin the signs
Talib Kweli Get By

Talib Kweli - Cold Rain Lyrics and Video

[Intro]
Lets try something new
It’s been a long time coming!
Let me try something brand new
Hey yo Ski!
What you ever do, man?
Come on!
Yo, what we doing it for?

[Talib Kweli - Verse 1]
This is for all the day-trippers and the hipsters
Whores and the fashionistas
Spiritual leaders practicing all the laws of attraction
The teachers who read the passages from the Bhagavad Gita
That be bustin off Dalai Lama’s or flashing heaters
the last of the boosters
With the shooting, the thugging and all the booning and spooning
and all the crooning, and cooning and auto-tuning, alive
You be tellin, peddlin’ to consumers I’m helping them to see through it
get with this new movement,
Let’s move it!

[Hook]
Feel the cold rain
Still I’m standing right here
Even the winter summer days

[Talib Kweli - Verse 1]
Yeah I’m a product of Reaganomics
From the blocks where he rocking a feds like J Electronica
drop and make this a lock
if he promises where the heart is
whether Jesus or Mohammad
regardless of where the Mosque is (word)
They hope for the Apocalypse like a self-fulfilling prophecy
Tell me when do we stop it?
Do they ask you your religion before you rent an apartment?
Is the answer burning Korans
So that we can defend Islamics?
The end upon us with a hash tag, a trending topic
You take away the freedoms that we invite in the game
Then you disrespect the soldiers; you ask them to die in vein
In a desert praying for rain
The music’s like a drug, and they tend to take it to vein
It ain’t for the well-behaved
The soundtrack for when you’re great but its more for when you’ve felt afraid
More than your average rapper
So you sort of felt the way
The brain is like a cage, you a slave, that’s why they lovin’ you
This is the book that Eli that start with a K-W.

[Hook]

[Talib Kweli - Verse 2]
I do it for the trappers, other rappers
the Backpackers, the crackers
the n-ggas, the metal-packers
the victims of ghetto factories
I do it for the families, citizens of humanity
Emcee’s, endangered species like manatees
I do it for the future of my children!
They the hope for the hopeless
Karma approaches, we gon’ be food for a flock of vultures
The end of the World
Ain’t nothing left but the cockroaches
and the freedom fighters
We’re freedom writers like Bob Moses
the chosen, freedom writers like Voltaire
For my block, my borough, my hood, my city, my state, yeah
My obligation to my community is so clear!
yeah, we gotta save them, this opportunity so rare!
We do it so big over here that it’s no bare
To the punks, bitches, the chumps, the snitches, the sneak in the game
We let them live with all they’re weak and they’re lame
The bozo’s and joker’s, promoting when they’re speaking my name

Nelly - Go (Ft. Talib Kweli & Ali) Lyrics and Video

Life, what is it for real, I don’t know
It’s like hate taking over the whole world, what is it over?
Suicide, man, that’s the devil trying to control us, they told us
,but we didnt notice the pain was sitting on they shoulders
The world was just a polar, the rather live in the solar,
System got us hopeless, and focused on forclosures
Wake up and smell the folgers... oh momma and bring home the soldiers
Osama, you owe us, the 9 11 was bogus, now we right back at him
Say the war is our motive

Wake up early in the streets of the block, streets of the block
He posted up on the corner like a soldier in the drill but he wouldn’t stop
Living life in the battlefield, battlefield, trying to survive every day and every night
It’s the same deal
Lifes strange lifes strange ,times change times change, but karma always finds the way
Stay strong, stay strong, hold on, hold on
Don’t let all your dreams fade away

Yeah life can beat you down, what goes it comes around
It’s not how you hit the ground, it’s how fast you get back up
And go, keep going,till it feels like I’m giving my life away
Gets hard,and harder, happiness is worth the wait
Cause on my own is a better way
Cause on my own is a better way
http://lyrics-video-music.blogspot.com/2010/11/nelly-go-ft-talib-kweli-ali-lyrics-and.html

A lot of mothers they just don’t understand, they just don’t understand
They think we’re hard on our sons but we gotta teach our boys how to be a man
They only know when they walk out the door, when they walk out the door
See we can show em how to fire but they gotta teach themselves how to reload
Cause unenployment is harder than its ever been, sometimes it feels like i cant win
And even through all the rules keep changing, I’m stronger now than I was when I came in

Yeah life can beat you down, what goes it comes around
It’s not how you hit the ground, it’s how fast you get back up
And go, keep going, to feel like I’m giving my life away
Gets hard, and harder, happiness is worth the wait
Cause on my own is a better way
Cause on my own is a better way

Hey, hey, going through the back streets like i got beef
Carnival for carnivores with the sharp teeth
Animalistic it’s why we call the cops beast
We’re on the hunt, cause they’re hungry for the dark meat
I’m rapping through my heart beat, brain is the base, my heart is the drum
Give the drum some, promis of a better life is all I got to give
I ain’t just trying to survive, I’m trying to live

Cause all I want is a better way,
Hey, if you’re not prepared the world can be so cold
All that you can do is your best and just hope
In time the truth will show, just stick to what you know
Get a grip on something real and never let it go

And go, keep going, to feel like I’m giving my life away
Gets harder, and harder, happiness is worth the wait
Cause on my own is a better way
Cause on my own is a better way
