[Butterfly] Get yours, float up to the stars Planets hits a spot 'bout six blocks east of Mars. Air soul kicks and crush velvet hats, hangin off the ave with the beautifulest naps. Ride in the crest with the blessed, give a yes. Planets kinda funky, as if you hadn't guessed. Placebo's gettin blocked, funky joints get rocked Jive is not found, we fly from the flesh Whether Jeep or 'Lac, Peak you as you been there and Float to them raps, Butterfly's planets for the

It's just the logic, from how we rocks it Pop shock picks it up and drops hits We, the synthesis of then and now melts channeled to the masses through a DJ and some felts Long haired hippies, Afro blacks, All get together across the tracks Because when we shows up, rythm rolls up Funk cannot be measured while the pleasure grows up Life ain't what it seems, life is but a dream Planets wreakin havok is as constant as the rain Yeah...

Yeah, I can really dig how these cats get down with the sound as it is today. The way they're bringing it all together, they're cool. Brothas are doin it right. And they're paying good respect to the masters, I can dig it. It's exactly the way it should be.
