[Talib Kweli]

Yo, we been through this before right? (Word, word...) So we

figurin', if we gonna do it, we gotta freak it, y'know what I'm sayin?

(True, true, true...) Cuz everything gotta go up from here, right?

So Hi-Tek, turn it up a notch...





[Jane Doe]

Hail Mary, 'matta fact hail Jane

Niggaz take my name in vainvein like I was cocaine

My affirmations kill emcees like assasination

Bringin' you pain until you wish you had a vaccination

Or vaccine, I shine like Vaseline

Gas plays like petroleum, walk over them like linoleum

My vocab expand like a rubber band

Walkin' nekkid through the motherland, give the finger to my brotherman

Niggaz just don't understand my reasons, I transcend like season

And scar these rappers like legion

It's treason, my suspension attract attention

I'm ventin', givin' these chickenheads detention

Did I mention my name, yo, go by the Jane Doe

Drenched in Polo, chill downtown in Soho

You don't know, this is just half my potential

Check my credentials, come harder than sequential

It's essential, you listen, I drive, you a pedestrian

They bless me on the track cuz I attack wit' the estrogen

Rhyme against the best a men, Jane burn it up

When you hear it in the whip, tell your man to turn it up!



[Wordsworth]

Yo...get it...yo

Yo, we fortified live, supportin' allies

The wack is tryin' to shorten our lives, it sorta waters my eyes

But here is some'n the cryin' talk about

The verse on that cassette you and cousin fought about

That led to God and Satan's fallin' out

Encourage the liquor for those who ain't here that you pourin' out

On 3-way, your parents, preacher and spouse called my house

Revive
