LYRICS FOR "Move Somethin'"
C'mon c'mon ya ya ya ya ya
Get 'em up
Get 'em up
Get 'em up
Yo
What's with the melodrama?
Fella's wanna hover in my cypher like a helicopter
Like it's a special honor
The stealth bomba
Make the ghetto holla
Takin you high like sky divers
When we spark with live wires
Original
Express my desire to drop this new s***
These record executives keep tellin me y'all stupid
Now if they right
Revolutionaries throw your guns up
Whether you a bourgeois broad who actin stuck up
Or some ignorant thug m*********** shootin the club up
We gonna make y'all feel this
If y'all fake that realness
Ringin it in from the new millenuim to way after that
I call these cats Reynolds 'cause they plastic wrap
Kill all the yappin lets make it happen
You cats ain't real
Better yet
Soon as the director say action you start fakin
I start breakin
The whole joint start shakin
This ain't the time or place for you to prove something
Cut the stargazin' yo
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Word alright bring it back to the top
To be continued
Lets see what's next up on the menu run up in you
Lyrics that be f***** with you
In the mental
Extra Extra large like the borough of brooklyn the residential
Exi-stential-ist specialist
Like Sly Stone wit my poem and fly song
Ride along with cats who live great and die strong
We gonna rock till nothin else matters
Y'all catch bodies
Your next of kin an' shatter stories splattered in the tabloids
Erase your trace like your cotton mouth and we pepperment altoids
Step in the high reppin the spot called flatbush
Whether rappers or actors you still feel the gat bust
The abstract then becomes the reality
Alcoholics like to call it the moment of clarity
Kill all the yappin lets make it happen
You cats ain't real
Better yet
Soon as the director say action you start fakin
I start breakin
The whole joint start shakin
This ain't the time or place for you to prove something
Cut the stargazin' yo
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
Move Somethin' (move somthin)
