Yo, I wrote this, basement, Never Never Tunnel type portion
4
Just to accompany some audio distortion
5
Bust the popcorn, drop it ons my cassette and
6
Yo Crumbs, umm, how you feel? I hope it's blessed man
7
Dig The Square Roots be the setters of examples
8
Findin mad rhythm in the static of your samples
9
Quick to make you move to my groove as I sooth
10
the ear of the listener on the musical
11
Prisoner G, now you're free you can be all you wanna be
12
Go where you want or go and see all you wanna see
13
Because yo, your ambitions I won't neglect
14
And to them brothers who ain't here, nuff respect
15
So BROther ?uest, how ya livin, what ya givin black?
16
To me the brother with the linens and the applejacks;
17
busy til the break of dawn

The first verse is born I pass the popcorn

Say what?

Pass the what? Pass the popcorn (4X)
22
Secondly, I speak for the ?uest from the S-Q-T (Square Roots)
23
And I'm Black Thought, therefore you know it's funky
24
The rhythms he recycles sometimes prehistoric
25
The mic for the popcorn's like metaphoric (it's metaphoric baby)
26
So many different factors in a ?uestion style
27
Cause he's the father and he's giving more than one child
28
The abstract soloist, drummin from the heart
29
All the way from Philly in the West part
30
Relax your mind and let your body be at rest
31
Flow in slow mo', and let the BROther manifest
32
Now the second verse has been born
33
I'm Black Thought and I pass the popcorn
34
On to Kid Crumb I pass the popcorn
35
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn (4X)
36
Say what?
37
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn (4X)
38
From the Southern section of Philly my affection
39
affiliates me with kids, from the store to pastry
40
The Foreign Object, direct from ? with the skit
41
that be rugged, it was the drumsticks and the buckets
42
back in the days, now the Rubber Band plays to accompany
43
?uestion upon the drums and displays mad soul
44
Soul be the source of the blam Roots fam
45
as we grow and expand like the afro
46
With menacing music seriously I'm sinister
47
I shout, move about, turn it out like minister
48
Diggin the flip-side when I slide I gets biz with
49
mad melanin, chocolate, like a chip that's black man
50
from the dark room with the mad raps homegrown
51
Knots and knaps upon the dome from thinkin
52
I'm sinkin in the sound cause I gets and got down
53
Lettin Black Thought's out of lockdown, buckshot
54
Lick it to the tick of my measure's on the Richter
55
Grits getter so grab your sister
56
I get wreck so check my respect from the wreck
57
that I've gotten biting this'll make your fronts turn rotten
58
The original, rock chewer, from a duo
59
whatever called po' folkers or Crumbs, and his mouth broke
60
Kids wanna laugh so I blast on your ass to - wait see
61
Chase me and see if you catch the circular knot
62
Style buckwild the acoustic boom
63
Square Root of Black Thought broadcast with the popcorn
64
It's like that y'all
65
The popcorn popcorn as I pass y'all
66
I go..
67
Pass the what? Pass the popcorn (4X)
