Escapism (Gettin' Free)

(album: Reachin' (A New Refutation Of Time And Space) - 1993)

Planets be the champ of amplified sound
Swimming in this art born up the boogie down
The Rubin Rod Squad flew angles toward the point
Could a weirdo group of bugs slam a gang of funky joints
The provin's in the moving of the baggy clothes
At the dimly lit clubs where flock the milk duds
Hip hop enzymes with pride kicks inside
Dig the threads the nappy heads

Bobbing over beats that sleeps with ghetto slang
No sirens just felts and wax from ghetto brains
The cosmic child's hit with dance and beats and kits
Like the [?] uh and shit
The ancestors grin cause rap is getting fat
To some of them it's grim 'cause it's youth be having gats
So save all the cares, let down your nappy hairs
'Cause the beats is giving life like air

The flyest fly bids is swelling the inside
The locest loc kids left they Glocks in the ride
Hoodlums in the house getting they flams on
'Cause even peace got some clout when the funky jams on

Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all

Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free

Insects at the joint no flam just kicking it
Wiggle with the fruits over by the liquids
The slick kids is down, the flyers passed around
We try to dig the group or recognize the loop
The strobe light is out in the crowd, dig my speaking
Who you see freaking is the native cause your seeking
I came in the door, I said it before
Jams make me kite, if they slam then it's life remember this

Yo, silkworm's chilling
Butterfly's chilling
A crew of Ladybugs
We giggle with the thugs
The world is in here 'cause expressions under hair
I love my peers

You for a black jam makes you for a black man
A kid I didn't know slapped his fingers in my hand
A wisdom caught my eye damn a jams fly
Honeys with some cuties someone having hootie

Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all

Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free

I think every mom and dad should say to their kids
K-k-kids be free
Be whoever you are and do whatever you wanna do

Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all
Get free, get free y'all

Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
Funk is you, funk is me, funk is us, funk is free
