The Tongue - The Show lyrics

[Intro: The Tongue] (One, two, one two three!) Oh, hot sh** Oh, hot sh** [Verse 1: The Tongue] Ayo, welcome to the future, I'll be the producer Director and the leader, man, but don't let that confuse ya Stoned every time you see me like you were Medusa But I'm always on the ball in the pub playing snooker Twenty-five years old, colder than I should be Hardcore lyricist, not living in the hood, G Long way from Compton, lot closer to Coogee But could he take a worldwide? Who else would be Bold enough to try, that's what you can't deny A rich man told me get rich or die trying And he came from nothing, so excuse me if I think you're bluffing When you say that this grind is for nothing Real special something, soul food fit for consumption Hip-hop, kids from the dungeon Beats are like ketamine when they start bumping You won't remember anything or you could start fresh First thing tomorrow morning, tonight all you gotta say is yes [Hook: The Tongue] How the beat sound, people, can you feel this? (Yes) Is real hip-hop back in the building? (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And if they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No) Now, ain't this party the ill sh**? (Yes) I'm psycho, you wanna see me k** this? (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And when they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No) [Verse 2: The Tongue] Welcome to the future, Tongue wrote the script Did the stunts and the music, but don't let that confuse ya There's motion in this picture, I'm falling up A long way from the day that my cords were cut Now we put together epic scenes like Stanley Kubrick A thousand people jumping, celebrating staying human Audio architect, I build without a blueprint I'll burn it, just purpose, just pa**ion, just perfect A castle in the sky, they said it wasn't possible, they lie That's why I got this gleam up in my eye A nation of millions couldn't hold us back Too much positivity getting put on wax This is for my public enemies, you gotta pick a side Some will pick a flower, others will pick a fight No touch in the blocks but change in our times Can't be anything but real, we living real life Said how can I be frontin', I'm living this real life [Hook: The Tongue] Now how the beat sound, people, can you feel this? (Yes) Is real hip-hop back in the building? (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And if they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No) We got funk, yo, can they get a witness? (Yes) Puttin' flavor in your ear, can you hear us? (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And when they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No) [Scratches: [?]] "Original b-boy I'm rappin', what's happenin' [Verse 3: The Tongue] Welcome to the future, all of the creation Anything's an option, free information Pay with your attention, global reception Third-world students with a Wi-Fi connection That's revolution, blogging the election Unfollow bullsh**, get to the message You better hurry up, I heard the net's getting censored Tryna put a bullet in the mother of invention I'm tryna put a dollar in my mother's f**ing pension They give them refugees a motherf**ing sentence What the deal, what the deal, my people? Oh, you can't spot the real resident evil? Give me a break, matter of fact, Oz give me a break I'm eating up the game, bring me a plate Straight chewin' on destiny, spittin' out fate Mind state futuristic, no time to waste [Hook: The Tongue] So how the beat sound, people, can you feel this? (Yes) Is Elefant Traks up in the building? (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And if they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No) Did you make a quick stop at your dealers? (Yes) Are you ready for a dose of the realness (Yes) Well, let's get started with the show And when they try and shut us down, what you gonna tell them? (No)
