Talkin` To You Lyrics

Talkin` To You lyrics

Mos Def] *talking behind singing vocals* 

 It's always the nervous cats, that's like... 

 Yo money, you tryin to dis me or something? 

 What you tryin to get fly or something? 

 You tryin to get a little rep off me or something, money? 

 Let me tell you something money, you don't know me like that 

 NawI'msayin, you don't know none of my crew like that 

 NawI'msayin, and if you really wanna make some little insinuation 

 About me nawI'msayin, don't talk about it, be about it money 

 If you wanna do something, we can do it right now 

  

 [Pharoahe Monch] 

 I levitate through meditation 

 Sitting my legs crossed, source to build force field 

 To shield my immediate surroundings 

 Avoiding falling sheet rock, rubble and granite 

 Expand, white man, got plans to feed the planet 

 Excessive hate, repercussions of manic-depressive state 

 Panic, God forbid we all take it for granted 

 Delivering lyrical thoughts for spiritual dividends 

 Half the concentrate, like Hampstead we'll be livin in 

 Magnetic boring them, it's a must I score again 

 And pollute em, shoot em like white students in Oregon 

 Cuz when I was broke, I always found figures to fuck bitches 

 Wit full-force like them muscle-bound niggas 

  

 [Rah Digga] 

 Well it's the R-A-H, big up to Brick City 

 When I'm not rippin niggas I be ?feelin wit commitee? 

 Got two rap clicks, so bring all the kingred 

 Buggin off of rappers sayin shit that I been said 

 Askin me how your mob sound, bringin my high down 

 Flipmode put shit together quicker than a seamstress 

 Thinkin I talk white cuz I speak proper English 

 All up in your air like I was celly interference 

 Rip shows and make little cameo appearance 

 White label to death if I can't get no clearance 

  

 [Mos Def] *talking behind vocals* 

 Alot of cats think I'm trapped in a box, livin cruel and if that's true 

 I'm talkin to you 

 Thinkin of dissin your steez, your degress, everything you're attached to then


 I'm talkin to you 

 Wonderin who we talkin about, yo is my name in his mouth, well then 

 I'm talkin to you 

 No mystery, you ain't got to scratch your head 

 Like "Is he dissin me?", we talkin to you 

  

 [A-Butta] 

 Aiyyo we severed the lever that I pull 

 It's never the bull, shit instead of the full clip, click 

 You get hit in the head wit dialect 

 When I pre-fect my new script 

 Check the architecht then select the newest blueprint 

 When I pro-ject the move-ment of the mic, it might strike 

 And brand new life trife that handle 

 ?Flyin off?, literature that's pure 

 Yo we miniature before, you finished yours, I get mine 

 Musically inclined, like the sign of a clef 

 To my death, I rhyme and yes I left you, sense-less in the mind 

 Plus I'm, going to show no re-pentance 

 My flow's relentless, you know the sentence 

  

 [Talib Kweli] 

 You will respect it when we set it 

 Fake MC's get tossed 

 For leavin the microphone covered wit the gloss 

 Don't get lost, bitch-asses who switch fastest 

 When my hits smashes, impacts like whip crashes 

 Fuckin up your face like thick glasses 

 You still can't see shit 

 I'll snatch your faith, your imagination won't believe it 

 It's ill, you can't conceive it 

 Any nigga can make a baby, it takes a man to be a father 

 Why bother, you'll be run over in the street like Frogger 

 Comatose like Central Park joggers when my crew goes wildin 

 Lyricist who will never Lounge till all wack shit is silenced 

 I'm not violent, niggas come aggressive wit that nonsense 

 Yo, it's time for us to get aggressive wit our conscience 

  

 [Mos Def] 

 Alot of cats think I'm chattin about 

 Them and they crew, and if that's true 

 I'm talkin to you 

 Wondering if I'm dissin you and everything you're attached to 

 I'm talkin to you 

 Runnin your mouth, wonderin "yo, who Mos be talkin bout?" 

 I'm talkin to you 

 No mystery, you can consider yourself dissed officially 

 You can consider yourself dissed officially 

 You can consider yourself dissed officially 

 *ranting and shouting until end
