Lucky

(album: Grassroots - 1994)

I'm taking it to the bridge and there's a different country
I'm bringing with me the people I know deep down are funky
Oh yeah, we dap, we got the juice it's on tap
Never take the time to rewind all the weak crap
Here, take it it's yours the gift is calling
The sunshine be falling our way first every morning
I'm a magician you see I'm christened with condition
Held over from a future world I've come to you so listen
There's a place out in deep space
Where all the brothers chant and dance and rant
And shave their heads like Buddha I'm a flyguy
You know I'm smoother
Of course no remorse is left for all those loser crews

I do not care what you do I always screw up
But when I do it's nothing like you, I wish you grew up
You're saying anything like promise to get clean
Won't kick half-dead you're fucked up in the head
Just get him out of here, get him out of here
Get him out of here, yes, he's making me sick
We push a sucker out, with much force and much clout
Didn't want to do it, that's not what we're about
But we got to have a limit, how low can you get it
Seems about time to change the subject and sing about
The wise-eyed girl that makes me feel good
And never do I leave misunderstood

(Aw, yeah, can you feel it)
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do
It's like this, that, Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some backchat
(Tell 'em again, can you feel it)
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do
It's like this, that, Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some backchat

I'm rolling slow no particular place to go
So nothing changed the more things stay the same
The more it doesn't matter to a latter day St. Bernard
Acting hard but I throw down like a crazy retard
But what could make a man wanna walk around the schoolyard with his tool hard
And what could make the switch to call a girl a bitch
It probably happened when you first started rapping
And when you know that you were stuck with Beavis
Now leave us on a note of positivity
I'm saying this for levity but if I leave it brief I call it brevity
I said I see the people rocking, which means there's no stopping the flow
And you can just tell 'em that you know

Come on, every night yeah we turning up
And coming off live like a final 311 battle breaking idols
On the one you never heard before
You know the hard-core rocking pumping the dance floor
Leave ya feet sore looking for your Micatin
You know the mic is deadly in the mood we into
Certified not faking, cool like a Jamaican
Every time the enemy hear us they will be shaking

(Damn)
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do
It's like this, that, Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some backchat
(Tell 'em again, damn)
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do
It's like this, that, Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some backchat
