Obvious

(album: Reverse Psychology - 2004)

I grab the mic and I start to rap
Under me eyes them rings of black
They want me to proceed in a normal manner
But something inside says fuck it, how can I

Get what I want or even need
See the old rots quicker than being married to Britney Spears
So I take my time, think for a minute
Why do they always go for the gimmicks?

Is it because no one told them better
Or is it because society brings pressure
We're still the brave ones who fight the system
We're still the ones that know the difference

Put your light up, I said put your light up
Light up the dark and get, right up
Show the hypocrites that we have the guts
Too many of them just simply forgot

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
Too many of us just live without trust

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
All this rush causes frighten and fuss

Formality, mentality, profanity
Think you understand it, man
Insanity, poor salary, reality
Know where I'd rather be

In the island, we smiling, freestyling
Under the lemon tree
To compensate we must take your breath away
The whole trigonometry

They pack my bag and I hang around
Tell them stories of how to get down
Represent, being real
They should get an Oscar for acting ill

You better chill, dream 'bout meaning
Come out your box start fighting them demons
Mind games, bygones from past
You must head away and find the path

Not many of us get to do what we want
Not many of us don't have to front
But if you know your song
And you know it's strong

Then let me see you get, get up on
Before they drop the bomb in a Babylon
We must rise up and prevent the wrong
Ain't no joke man I wish it was
But too many of them seem like they're brainwashed

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
Too many of us just live without trust

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
All this rush causes frighten and fuss

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
Too many of us just live without trust

What we need is little love
It doesn't take a scientist to figure this
'Cause it's so obvious
All this rush causes frighten and fuss

Formality, mentality, profanity
Think you understand it, man
Insanity, poor salary, reality
Know where I'd rather be

In the island, we smiling, freestyling
Under the lemon tree
To compensate we must take your breath away
The whole trigonometry
