What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Who am I? The one that gets laced tight
2
The one you wear, hit a flare on the same night
3
That you hit an uprock, I'm the one in the closet next to one sock
4
The one you rock on the cardboard box
5
Walking to the one block
6
You know the one spot peeps get the one shot
7
Got one thought on the task at hand
8
You can ask your man I'm part of master plan
9
Only b-boys and b-girls, they understand
10
Whatever you say now, ya wish is my command
11
Name it, I'll be the footwork to your head spin
12
Follow your lead, go anyplace that ya legs bend
13
At ya cipher session I'm ya best friend
14
I got a twin, we's a pair clocking size 10
15
Head's a shell, three stripes on side
16
Laces large, on your feets I reside
17
Keep me clean, keep me laced, and I'll be allright
18
I be the first element up in here tonight
19
Who am I? See, I'm the one that you be gripping tight
20
The one that makes you sound real good when you be flipping right
21
And I'm the one causing fights up at the open mic
22
I'll make ya sound real stupid if you don't hold me right
23
I got emcees fiending for me all day and night
24
I could care less if ya on me if ya black or white
25
See all that matters when you rock me don't be coming wack and
26
Don't hold me to the speaker or I'ma feedback and
27
I'm used for rapping, every now and the used for passng
28
Back and forth in ya crew in a freestyle fashion
29
I get rocked, ripped, flipped on and blasted,
30
I'm spoke on, choke on, hit on, spit on, and mastered
31
I've outlasted, been used to tell truth and lies
32
Used to kill the youth and used to open up they eyes
33
I come in all kinds of sizes, heard all kinds of voices
34
Sometimes I'm plugged in, you know sometimes I'm cordless
35
Keep me clear, keep me close, and I'll be allright
36
See I'm the second element up in here tonight
37
Who am I? I got two heads and they always spinning
38
I got two arms that the deejays, they use for ripping
39
Plus a fader in my middle that they always gripping
40
I'm completed with the two records used for mixing
41
They pulling tricks and cutting up, ya know they scratching
42
Remixing beat, juggling just whie they mix and match and
43
All kinds of beats till it's the heat that I know ya catching
44
And I'm the one that started hip-hop in case ya asking
45
I got knobs and faders in a mad abundance
46
I come in many names, but most time it's 1200
47
When I get played now, you know that you truly love it
48
Now clean the needle on my arm or I'll be sounding busted
49
I'm disregarded, treated like I ain't legitimate
50
I'm making music, you don't see me as an instrument
51
And it takes true skills to get on me and be ripping it
52
Nobody sees my contribution, they ain't getting it
53
You know there's one thing that really now makes me mad
54
You used to blow me off but now I'm the latest fad
55
I'm the thing that every rock band they got's to have
56
Now people say my name and they be like "Now what is that?"
57
Keep me running, keep me spinning, and I'll be allright
58
I'll be the third element up in here tonight
59
Who am I? Se I'm hiding in your backpack
60
You tear my tip off, replace it with a fat cap
61
I'm 12 oz. of steel concealed in a knapsack
62
Ya pull me out, ya shake me up, and then attack that
63
Wall or train while ya steady throwing up your name
64
Leaving these end to end burners, ya getting ghetto fame
65
Now me and my brothers, ya know we come in many colors
66
Steady beautifying the walls of a ghetto culture
67
Toys and suckers now you know they getting dissed quick
68
I'm going all city all up in ya district
69
Ya hold me with control so I never drip thick
70
I'm tagging up ya spot, nobody misses it
71
See I'm the brush to a modern day type DiVinci
72
I'm the new urban renewal for ya block's committee
73
I've spoken words of the youth of an inner city
74
I'm vandalism but to others I'll be called graffiti
75
Keep me shaking, keep me spraying, and I'll be allright
76
I be the fourth element up in here tonight
77
Who am I? See I'm the God that you don't know about
78
I gave you breath up in your lungs that you can't go without
79
See you know the facts of My story you been told about
80
I'm always reaching out for you but you just keep on holding out
81
I know your doubts, I know you're thinking that I ain't real
82
See I know you forgot about Me when you got ya last record deal
83
See I know the way you feel, I walked the earth just like you
84
And like a child up in his Father's arms, I long to hide you
85
Many times I invite you while standing here right besides you
86
But you walk right past, you ignore My hands here given to guide you
87
I gave you gifts, I gave you talents that you just used to gain your wealth
88
But you took my gifts and talents only for you, just to glorify yourself
89
I was beaten and bruised, crushed now for your iniquity
90
Stripped naked, I was spit upon just for you to live eternally
91
Yet you blaspheme Me, you make moves without asking Me
92
Then you blame Me for your troubles and calamaties, you kidding me?
93
Keep Me first, keep Me in your life, and it's gonna be allright
94
See I'm Jesus Christ, the Fifth Element up in here tonight
