DJ Babu - Pa**ion lyrics

{Cuts by Chief Xcel and DJ Babu} An open microphone can be dangerous Let's tune in on two of the greatest MCs out there (Chorus) [Rakaa, Gift of Gab] Pa**ion The will to win, the spark within Pa**ion The strength within the hearts of men Pa**ion The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise You've just arrived the quest is driven through Pa**ion To play through pain and love the game Pa**ion To break the chain and blaze the flame Pa**ion The fight for rights, to love your life, to rise You've just arrived the quest is driven through Pa**ion [Rakaa] Propaganda, positive propositions A, politician, musician and a triple optician Still, part of my mission's to slaughter the opposition Critics that don't get it, I tell 'em to stop b**hin' I do without plaques, I've done it without cash Strictly for the love of the art - that's pa**ion Flashin', rappin' or jammin' or soundblastin' When Quannum meets Expansion, this is what happens [Gift of Gab] Runnin' through the jungle with a flare gun Arrow-arms, zoning out my mind Like I was hooked on hero-in Take the fire, turn it up and blaze whole forest down Pullin from within' the inner insane warrior California to the District of Columbia Hella high octane, lookin' through a lazy eye All ablaze, fire, flames, lightin' up the sky Run into the burnin' sun, yellin' Ride, n***a ride, n***a ride..

Brace for satisfaction Pa**ion [Gift of Gab] The black-skinned African jazz-men of the half in Aspen Relaxed, gettin' my back rubbed [Rakaa] I'm still here, I've seen cats get k**ed here I've seen cats make a mil but millionaires still fear You can buy air play but you can't buy cheers Blackalicious, Dilated, vibratin' your ears [Gift of Gab] Sent vibrations for years, I've been waiting for years I've been patient for years, we ain't playin' this year We hold stake in this here, it ain't safe for this year We in the zone watch next level, takin' it there, this is (Chorus) [Rakaa, Gift of Gab] Pa**ion The will to win, the spark within Pa**ion The strength within the hearts of men Pa**ion The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise You've just arrived the quest is driven through Pa**ion To play through pain and love the game Pa**ion To break the chain and blaze the flame Pa**ion The fight for rights, to love your life, to rise You've just arrived the quest is driven through Pa**ion Babu!
