[Talib Kweli]
2
One two three, in the place to be!
3
MF Doom, Talib Kweli, ah here we go
4
On born days, I used to blow out the candles; and every Saturday
5
watch cartoons 'til noon and then I'd switch to Ralph McDaniels
6
I was, makin up a miracle flow, over a cereal bowl
7
And a paused beat from my stereo
8
Rhymes stronger than Popeye with the spinach
9
Yeah I'm gangster like the frog on Courageous Cat and Minute Mouse
10
Maybe I'm trippin and it's just a cartoon to you
11
But I got chills when I heard how Doom flipped the Scooby Doo
12
And, I might be buggin but it seem to me
13
that cartoons be realer than reality TV
14
They inspire my decision to be open and listen
15
But folks got it all twisted, like a yoga position
16
Like, in order to spit it dope, you gotta have a criminal past
17
that's similar to the cast of Different Strokes
18
Me and my people break bread, sit and smoke
19
The conversation rich, but that depend on what you consider broke
20
I draw on anything for inspiration
21
A fond memory, a piece of paper, walls in a train station
22
[Chorus: Talib Kweli]
23
It's just that I'm old school like that, roll that rap over soul loops like that
24
It's just that I'm old school like that, roll that rap over soul loops like that
25
(I'm old school y'all, yes y'all, I keep it goin y'all, here we go)
26
It's just that I'm old school like that, roll that rap over soul loops like that
27
(I'm old school y'all, keep it goin y'all, keep it goin y'all)
28
It's just that I'm old school like that, roll that rap over soul loops like that
29
(Ah here we go, c'mon)

[MF Doom]
31
And we'll be right back after these messages
32
Fellas grab your nutsacs, chicks squeeze your breastesses
33
We ain't all that grown, it's still funny like
34
Goin to the store on your own with rainbow money
35
Since then had an insane flow sonny
36
Walkin to the corner rhymin in the rain, nose runny
37
Breakdancin maybe ten, bummy
38
is when Subroc would run up handspring Arabian somee!
39
Ooh wee, like a Hong Kong Phooey kick
40
Or a weekend afternoon, karate movie flick
41
Slept good, no justice, no peace
42
Woody kept it hoody, never discussed it with police
43
Shot the fair one nobody ran to get the gat
44
Or felt they had to put it up in they raps to set it fat
45
And since when lyrical skills had to do with killin a cat?
46
What type of chitlins is that?
47
The Super Villain as the bat, hide your tonic
48
Whoever willin to ride, provide raw chronic
49
[Chorus]
50
[Talib] Yeah!
