Generate meaning
1
Starvation is the creation of the devil, a rebel
2
I'm bringin' food to the people like a widow
3
Bringin' flowers to a grave in the middle
4
Of the city isolation is a riddle
5
To be surrounded by a million other people
6
But to feel alone like a tree in a desert
7
Dried up like the skin of a lizard
8
But full of color like the spots of a leopard
9
Drum and bass pull me in like a shepherd
10
Scratch my itch like a needle on a record
11
Full of life like a man gone to Mecca
12
Sky high like an eagle up soaring
13
I speak low but I'm like a lion roaring
14
Baritone like a Robeson recordin'
15
I'm givin' thanks for bein' human every morning
16
[Chorus]
17
Because the streets are alive with the sound of Boom Bap
18
Can I hear it once again
19
Boom Bap tell your neighbor tell a friend
20
Every box gotta right to be bomin'
21
Because the streets are alive with the sound of Boom Bap
22
Can I hear it once again
23
Boom Bap tell your neighbor tell a friend
24
Every flower got a right to be boomin'
25
Be resistant
26
The negativity we keep it at a distance
27
Call for backup and I'll give you some assistance
28
Like a lifesaver deep in the ocean
29
Stay afloat here upon the funky motion
30
Rock and roll upon the waves of the season
31
Hold your breath and your underwater breathin'
32
To be rhymin' without a real reason
33
Is to claim but not to practice a religion
34
If television is the drug of the nation
35
Satellite is immaculate reception
36
Beaming in they can look and they can listen
37
So you see don't believe in the system
38
To legalize you or give you your freedom
39
You want rights ask em', they'll read em'
40
But every flower got a right to be bloomin'
41
Stay human
42
[Chorus]
43
All the freaky people make the beauty of the world
44
You see Y2K ya know is a moment
45
In time we find that we can open
46
Up a heart that's locked or been broken
47
By the pain of words not spoken
48
Or shot by guns a still smokin'
49
Cartwrights out on the Ponderosa
50
Or drive by bang in Testarossa
51
We need to heed the words of Dalai Lama
52
Or at least the words of yo mama
53
Take a mental trip to the Bahamas
54
Steam your body in a stereo sauna, sauna, comma
55
[Chorus]
