• Give A Man A Fish

Lately I've been in a life like limbo

Looking out of a smudged up window

We're not sure where our lives are going

Friends, it's summer outside but yet we're snowed in

Don't know where our next dollar's coming from

Living the life of a poor musician

Headliner's strong so he keeps his 9 to 5

Cutting brothers' hair as a means of staying alive

If it wasn't for the rhythm

I think we would have given up by now

This system has gotten the best of me

Now I pray for God to invest in me

My dignity, invest his glory

Give me the strength so I can finnish the story

Keep on searching for the right way to go out

coz going out is what it's all about

huh! You can't be passive, gotta be active

Can't go with what looks attractive

Gotta learn all I can while I'm able

Headliner expresses his feeling on those turntables

When we get our chance

to make a good living of the music we program

We don't sell out just to be sold out

Brothers and sisters, do you know what I'm yapping about ?

Coz if they take away our contract

we still got talent and we still got contacts

Coz we're worked real hard to get this far

We're catching the bus before we bought the car

Ya see !

[CHORUS:]

[Give a man a fish, and he'll eat for a day

Teach him how to fish and he'll eat forever] (2x)

Got to get political

Political I gotta get

Grown but can't hold my own

So this government needs to be overthrown

Brothers with the AKs and the 9 MMs

need to learn how to correctly shoot'em

Save those rounds for a revolution

Poor whites and blacks bumrushing the system

But I tell you: Ain't no room for gangstaz

Coz ganstaz do dirty work and get pimped by mobsters

Some fat Italian eating pasta 'n lobster

Brothers getting jailed and mobsters own the coppers

so you you want out of the ghetto

First the political prisoners must be let go

And you must let go of your power master

You'll never get out without much discipline

Raise your fist but also raise your children

So when you die the movement moves on

Coz with revolution, ain't no future in front o' y'all

haha! Direct your anger, love

Nothing's ever built on hate, instead love

Love your life, tackle the government

The spooks that break down the door are heaven sent

and my phrase went...

[CHORUS] (2x)

Alright !

Rhythm makes you move your body, rhythm makes you move your mind

Rhythm makes your elbows groove, rhythm makes that behind move

Rhythm makes the people move, rhythm makes you want to move

Rhythm makes your mind soothe, next stop is Jerusalem
