I got so much funky shit inside my brain

I couldn't explain couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand I couldn't explain



I got so much funky shit inside my brain

I couldn't explain couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand I couldn't explain



{Mike G}

Explanation of the funk essential trapped in my brain

Couldn't do it make me wonder how a world maintain

Got emcees frontin total masquerade

Screamin toast had to touch them up with my blade

Cut is caught brothers still fallin to this day

And all is face say why'd have to be this way?

Five 'cent is the culture

Make me pop you like a vulture

Amplify my mic and let the rhyme take the clutcher

The rains of thr rhythms with some boom boom cat

Not enough to break your back, just so you react.

My counteract's my counterpart

Takin your heart

You made a move to pull my plug now that ass got sparked

All I seeing and knowing is my business and I divide to multiply

And give thanks to most high

24/7 brothers got to make a living

Overcome the odds is the only decision

Cast like my pawn with your third eye vision

Slip up in the brain raise a sharp incision

Streets full of clowns trying to rob your part

When the herb come knocking send them home with a not

I got my house pumped

Crunch a problem with my luck

Coming soft to the hole and get your whole game stuffed

As we sway the dance halls from heaven to hell,

As the sun do shine, JBeez rock well.



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



Yo dig it,



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



{Afrika}

Cut you short and escort you to my innermost thoughts

Dreams of fighting for my freedom in the most high courts

But jump shots get blocked and dreams get shatterred

and when the day turns night, souls get bruised and batterred.

Cheap labor for a favor from your cotton picking neighbor,

Got to work your ass off just to show you got flavor,

Life savers won't help you when your breaking your back

And Uncle Sam keep talking about rasing his tax

I look at heaven and see myself rolling in seven or eleven

So I can recoup this suit that I'm spending

Pray to god with divine intervention all my life

Repent for my sins because I don't want strife

Release from contracts to make new contacts

The game gets played but still remains the facts

That I got to wake up and see the brood of charades

'Cause I'm still living in the modern age slave trade

Rapping on holy water,

Looking for divine order

Life goes on, but still the rhyme gets shorter

Seal my fate, there's no escape

But still I'm straight,

I'm back on track, shaking off the dead weight

The time has come, for me to free my soul

Grab hold of my heart and take full control

'Cause no matter what happens when times get hard,

I still stand my ground and use the force of God



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



Yo dig it,



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



{Sammy B}

I'm about to shine like a dime,

It's time to give me mine,

My props, casue I'm about to take you to the top,

Non-stop with the body rock

I make you forget about your seat and start smiling

Brothers buckwilding

And JBeez is always styling

We bring the raw,

The real hardcore,

Giving you more than what you bargained for

Son, so your ass is best to run when

You see me coming

I'm taking it back to the essence,

Soul tracks I'm blessing

Pass the mic over here,

So I can test it,

Check one check two,

We's about to set it,

when the Brothers rock the party, you'll never forget it,



'Cause

I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



Yo dig it,



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, I couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain



I got so much funky shit inside my brain,

I couldn't explain, I couldn't explain

You wouldn't understand, I couldn't explain
