1
If you can talk you can sing
2
If you can walk you can dance
3
That's an old proverb from Zimbabwe
4
You know what I mean
5
If you can talk you can sing
6
If you can walk you can dance
7
Yeah, and the trumpet is blown
8
Yeah, alright, see'mon, see'mon, see'mon, see'mon
9
Alright, Wooh!
10
Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, one more time
11
Yo, anybody can tell you how it is
12
What we putting down right here is how it is and how it could be
13
Reflection Eternal for real
14
And with that-
15
These cats is no match
16
Plus they lack a certain knack for rapping
17
Chasing but they never catch the wagon
18
Like rerunning what's hap'ning
19
Since back when
20
They had potty issues and snotty tissues, we been rockin'
21
Think you poppin' next year nobody will miss you
22
My thoughts is too advanced for the artists on these labels
23
They come sweeter than sabal and softer than mashed potatoes
24
I tried to told you the rhymes run over emcees like Land Rovers
25
Took 'em back in time like Sam Kofa, Sam Kofa
26
We stand over the Atlantic, looking broad like a man's shoulders
27
The fire is trapped in a belly, ready to pop like canned soda
28
We outlasting, from middle passage
29
Touched down in New York
30
Cincinnatay! Big Ohio status what you thought
31
Money it's classic these bastards try to treat us like cattle
32
So life has been a constant battle, battle
33
Rising above the crabs in the barrel
34
Way too used to living in death's shadow
35
We stay on point like the best arrow, arrow
36
We hit the target accurate
37
Star shit, back it up
38
When we hit town, why'all niggas pack it up
39
That's how we get down, straight smash it up
40
Like a whip, hydroplaning
41
Hydro on the brain and maintaining
42
Game changing into subtle shit, we remain blatant
43
Yo, got to tell you to your face
44
You get replaced in this game, by Kweli
45
Place the face with the name
46
These cats drink champagne and toast to death and pain
47
Like slaves on a ship talking about who got the flyest chain
48
Yo, we the reflection of our ancestors
49
We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us
50
Cause your spirit possessed us
51
Yo, you blessed us
52
Thank you very much

61
Cause your spirit possessed us
