Communication

(album: Behind The Front - 1998)

[Will.I.am:]
An introduction to a rapid ray
Will explode like grenade
Check the medical aid
'Cause the way that we parade the fade
Any MC that claims that they can be
Tend the mic when we strike precisely
We freak the level with the funk from the inner
Heaven, give me inner, black as I present a
Flock a rhyme that rock you off an ass
Powerful, power flows that'll leave your soul paralyzed

Yo, I respect that you be G-in (...in)
It's the return of MC-in (...in)
Yo, thank God for the season (...on)
And don't be trying to think about a reason
'Cause there is no reason for you to front
We create cuts to give you what you want
Activate communication for the world
Shocking your mind with rhymes

[Will.I.am (apl.de.ap):]
Doing it like what AP (Like this here)
Rocking it like what AP (Like this here)
Flipping it like what AP (Like this here)
Doing it like what AP (Like this here, yeah)

[Apl.de.ap:]
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down

[Will.I.am:]
Can I get a "Ha" from my brothers that be chilling downtown
"Ho" for the people that be in it what we do
Yo check it out cause we black and positive
I suck in negative from you

[Apl.de.ap:]
I got many rhymes format from the back of the brain
Interluding with the powerful matter scatter your frame
You falling (Yo) check out what we do
We be all in on the microphone never stalling
Rhythm is my ride for the voyage of the mind
Exclusive rhyme patting us for what we design
I am my own Picasso when I roll
Rhyming is my art for my heart and soul

We positive when MC-in (...in)
Break bounce with the new blend (...end)
Original 'til the end (...end)
Sitting it all for no reason

[Will.I.am:]
They fell off at the attempt to elevate
They try to duplicate the art that we create
So activate communication for the world
Shocking your mind with rhymes

[Apl.de.ap (Will.I.am):]
Doing it like what Will (Like this here)
Rocking it like what Will (Like this here)
Shocking 'em like what Will (Like this here)
Rocking it like what Will (Yo, yo, it's like this here, yeah)

[Apl.de.ap:]
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down

[Will.I.am:]
We going worldwide, across the nation
Now that we've activated our communication
Wanting demonstration, ask the activator
Before one more walk-a-meter, funky motivator
And I be the Will, APL from the Phil
We contain the hypnotical skill that'll kill
You dealing with the G-R-E-A-T
Black Eyed Peas guy, hella in a G

[Apl.de.ap:]
'Cause we holler in an energetic motion with the potion I supply
Applying to the beat that Alligator you combine
With me and my crew incredibly and super spectacular
With the rhyme one two
One two to the beat (Hop) You can't defeat
BEP's production always complete
With this sounds activate online
And I'm on time to motivate your mind

[Will.I.am:]
Well I respect that you be G-in (...in)
It's the return of MC-in (...in)
Yo, thank God for the season (...on)
Sitting there off of no reason

[Apl.de.ap:]
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
We do it upside down
