《Stay Around》歌词

[00:04:16] Ladies and gentlemen

[00:04:16] Kweli!

[00:04:16] [Hook

[00:04:16] Won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And please say the rhyme

[00:04:16] Cause these rappers think that I＇m

[00:04:16] In love with your state of mind

[00:04:16] Cause you a favourite of mine

[00:04:16] And I know you on your grind

[00:04:16] I don＇t want to waste your time

[00:04:16] But baby won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And let my love (and let my love)

[00:04:16] And let my love

[00:04:16] [Verse 1

[00:04:16] Kweli you should rap about this, you should rap about that

[00:04:16] Any more suggestions? You in the back, yeah you

[00:04:16] You should rap more on beat, you should rap more street

[00:04:16] And never ever get your mack on please, how bout you?

[00:04:16] I like the way you＇re melodic, it＇s cause you capture hypnotic

[00:04:16] Portraits and seem to make the average exotic

[00:04:16] Probably unite, I know you getting some love, but you can＇t spit like a thug

[00:04:16] And you a blow, you make a hit for the club, word

[00:04:16] I don＇t like your voice, I don＇t like your choice of beats

[00:04:16] It sounds like it＇s forced, and what was up with ＂Back Up Offa Me＂?

[00:04:16] I ain＇t like that, man you should get with Hi-Tek

[00:04:16] Now he got nice tracks, them other dudes is type wack

[00:04:16] Yeah, people keeping it coming, I keep it bubbling

[00:04:16] Like the heat from oven boiling the water and the hate

[00:04:16] So they light my fire...

[00:04:16] I got a mic empire, my own label

[00:04:16] I had to emancipate me-me like Mariah...

[00:04:16] At some point I might retire, on some *

[00:04:16] My legacy, horse* like Mariah＇s...

[00:04:16] Illest flow found in the game, soothing like the sound of the rain

[00:04:16] It＇s the dude profound with the fame, I refusing to be sounding the same

[00:04:16] Keeping the verses, deleting the curses, defeating the purpose

[00:04:16] When the people go on strike, I＇m in the street with the workers

[00:04:16] Speaking the words from a pulpit like the preachers at churches

[00:04:16] Raise my hand, all the teachers get nervous

[00:04:16] Cause they know I air them out

[00:04:16] And they ain＇t even really gotta hear me out

[00:04:16] Keep it dirty like pigpen, voice in the warrior＇s head like ??

[00:04:16] Clocking like Big Ben, old school slang still find a way to innovate

[00:04:16] Pete Rock got em feeling great, the ladies say

[00:04:16] [Hook

[00:04:16] Won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And please say the rhyme

[00:04:16] Cause these rappers think that I＇m

[00:04:16] In love with your state of mind

[00:04:16] Cause you a favorite of mine

[00:04:16] And I know you on your grind

[00:04:16] I don＇t want to waste your time

[00:04:16] But baby won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And let my love (and let my love)

[00:04:16] And let my love

[00:04:16] [Verse 2

[00:04:16] Light the tip of the L, this heavyweight rap tipping the scale

[00:04:16] And we never let the system prevail, real picturesque, missing the sale

[00:04:16] Never that, it＇s forbidden like the candy sisters lifting the veil

[00:04:16] I＇m still leading the pack, these cats lacking

[00:04:16] Just because you be having a dragon don＇t mean you got the fire...

[00:04:16] It ain＇t nothing to play with, it＇s sacred

[00:04:16] My pen is the paintbrush, and dipping in paint plus

[00:04:16] Truth, love, joy, anger, hatred and anguish

[00:04:16] That＇s the spectrum of colours I paint with

[00:04:16] I don＇t feast at the banquet, cause freedom is the set that I bang with

[00:04:16] Listen the conditions in my slum village is tainted

[00:04:16] I grew through the pavement, like the flower the girl drew in the paper

[00:04:16] The sky bluer and the ?eye＇s? save you

[00:04:16] The rules of engagement that they use, attitudes of a slave

[00:04:16] Man got me stressed out losing my patience

[00:04:16] The moves that I＇m making across waters

[00:04:16] Through contraband that I＇m taking across borders

[00:04:16] Information never lost in translation

[00:04:16] Too many new words to be learned, I＇m spitting fire giving third degree burns

[00:04:16] Giving them heat stroke, hotter than rocking a P cote

[00:04:16] At ??, all these rappers super like me so, we go

[00:04:16] Back in the days like reminiscing with Pete yo

[00:04:16] Ladies welcome to the Kweli show

[00:04:16] She goes...

[00:04:16] [Hook

[00:04:16] Won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And please say the rhyme

[00:04:16] Cause these rappers think that I＇m

[00:04:16] In love with your state of mind

[00:04:16] Cause you a favorite of mine

[00:04:16] And I know you on your grind

[00:04:16] I don＇t want to waste your time

[00:04:16] But baby won＇t you stay around with me?...

[00:04:16] And let my love (and let my love)

[00:04:16] And let my love

[00:04:16] [Outro

[00:04:16] Ladies and Gentleman, its Talib Kweli

[00:04:16] Yeah, this Ear Drum y＇all

[00:04:16] B-B-B-B-Banging on your ear drum

[00:04:16] We got the incredible Pete Rock on the track like...

[00:04:16] I like that, I like that

[00:04:16] I want to give an extra big shout to my man Dave Dart

[00:04:16] Holding me down as always and as usual

[00:04:16] And his new born son, Cannon, brand new to the world

[00:04:16] He＇s now down with Blacksmith, Blacksmith is the movement

[00:04:16] Jean Grae, Strong Arm Steady gang, Talib Kweli

[00:04:16] It＇s what it is, yeah
