The Show
Lyricist:Talib Kweli Greene, Jr., Otis Jackson
Okay, okay, I'm only gettin' it on one side of the headphone Aight, yeah, bring it in like
Five somethin' in the mornin' goin' on six It's daylight, sunrise time Time to free yo'self, free yo' soul, free yo' mind Ladies, free that ass, yeah
Coast to coast it's the most We don't brag and boast We just leave 'em comatose It's your boy, Talib Kweli, yeah
Flow is tight, though I got a couple screws looses It's cuckoo, my rep in this game is bigger than Bruce Bruce Who you? Your name smaller than fine grains in couscous It's the highest caliber, your caliber is deuce deuce
Shoot, y'all niggaz can't hang like a loose noose I get on stage, niggaz in my ear like a Bluetooth And that's the triple truth, Ruth, they lips is loose like They seen your love daddy in the bulletproof blue Coupe
My rhymes is full of truth, and the business full of lies Try to look a Masai kid in his eyes for the flies And tell him how he fucked up our environment daily The only thing we know about Africa is from Nas or Belly
But go off like a Hutu or Tutsi, from Rwanda or Burundi Over drums like Babatunde Olatunji Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Sayin' nigga just to keep our teeth white like Paul Mooney Fightin' spiritual wars like the Shiite or the Sunni
Yo, our music went from tap dance to the lap dance Try to get me to sell out and that's a fat chance You see black faces in my rap pages Larry Davis, Angela Davis or Ossie Davis
Yeah, welcome to the show, it's Talib Kweli, so amazin' Live from California it's the Madlib invasion, let's go
This exercise in freedom is called the Liberation I keep it fly by a process of elimination When it come to payin' the kid, sometimes it's hesitation 'Til I make 'em check it in like they got reservations
But there ain't no reservations about coppin' this Even though it's free for the people there ain't no stoppin' this Poppin' fresh, cakin' up, I'm breakin' up the, monotonous flow That can't write or plant life like a botanist grow A new crop and just roll, it up, blow it out whoa
Excuse the cockiness though, I'm just showin' out Know you can't go without this, now what'chu know about that? Now what'chu know about, now what'chu know about?
Now what'chu know about, now what'chu know about? Now what'chu know about, now what'chu know about? Now what'chu know about, now what'chu know about? ...
