[00:01.000] 作曲 : Organized Noize/Andre Benjamin/Antwan Patton/Marqueze Ethridge
[00:06.58][Intro: Big Rube]
[00:08.09]Conceive true deception multiplied a million fold
[00:12.06]Visualize the yin and yang in a battle so intense
[00:14.94]That we get em confused
[00:16.45]The resident evil specialize in misconstruing
[00:19.46]We wanna be at a presidential level -- what are we doin'
[00:22.62]Fooling ourselves, clowning ourselves, playing ourselves
[00:26.35]By not being ourselves
[00:28.63]We can't babble no more than we can bob our head offbeat
[00:31.52]Nimrod by the time we forty cause we can't get off meat
[00:35.39]While we ask no reason for the misplacement of the season
[00:38.29]Look at the picture that's painted
[00:40.17]Tainted as the mind who's blinded to the point
[00:42.60]Where Sodomites get all the rights
[00:44.27]We fall for fights with fisticuffs
[00:46.34]Get pissed enough to miss the bus
[00:48.43]It disgusts me to see my folks run up on
[00:50.75]I say stand up on deception of time all of Revelations
[00:54.25]And recognize this mind on the reality of horror
[00:56.65]Known as mankind
[00:58.14]Jesus and his twelve disciples make thirteen
[01:00.63]A righteous number of righteous men
[01:02.85]Even Judas the Betrayer came true in the end
[01:05.41]The Devil say the end is the beginning
[01:07.99]They teach that we were the product of incest
[01:10.29]Invest no level of self into their system of Paganomics
[01:13.45]Stand with us and don't look back upon it
[01:15.72]Just face this mindstate
[01:17.53]Otherwise Babylon
[01:19.15]
[01:23.19][Hook: Debra Killings]
[01:24.06]Like memories of yesterday...
[01:30.69]
[01:32.70]"Ninety-six gonna be that year"...
[01:52.66][Verse 1: Andre 3000]
[01:53.03]I bet you never heard of a playa with no game
[01:55.69]Told the truth to get what I want, but shot it with no shame
[01:58.43]Take this music dead serious while others entertain
[02:01.20]I see they're making their paper so I guess I can't complain
[02:03.89]Or can I? I feel they're disrespecting the whole thang
[02:06.79]Them hooks like selling ******* to black folks
[02:08.99]And I choke when the food they serving ain't tasting right
[02:11.31]My stomach can't digest it even when I bless it
[02:13.77]I'm confessing one more lesson from the South, we in the house tonight
[02:16.69]Now hootie who wants to oppose? Suppose
[02:19.44]We rolls through Headland and Delowe
[02:21.16]Where me and my *******s would pass the flow
[02:22.47]And got down for ours like hind catchers
[02:24.45]My mind catches flashbacks to the black past
[02:26.33]While mind close *******s laugh at
[02:27.72]The Southern slang, finger waves and Mojo chicken wangs
[02:30.43]I grew up on booty shake we did not know no better thang
[02:32.92]So go 'head and, diss it, while real hop-hippers listen
[02:36.05]Started by Afrika Bambaata, so you and your partner
[02:38.90]Gather your thoughts
[02:40.00][Hook: Debra Killings]
[02:40.41]Something's gotta change
[02:42.76]Sounds of laughter and happiness turn my teardrops to rain
[02:47.96]Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
[02:53.79]Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way
[02:59.56]Like memories of yesterday
[03:01.89][Verse 2: Big Boi]
[03:02.28]Uhh, born Antwan Patton but my partners they call me Big Boi
[03:04.21]It's the ******* the B-I-G, be speaking the truth not talking that *******t boy
[03:06.88]I'm thinking of checking my traps and busting my raps
[03:09.17]And throwing them craps
[03:09.91]7 Eleven is no convenience, you pumping your gas but watching your back
[03:12.39]For the robbing crew; thinking they're robbing you, you must be cautious
[03:15.34]To staying up on your game and pimping these crows, you must be flawless
[03:18.24]Like Mortal Kombat, but ******* these wombats got you dizzy
[03:20.56]My ******* you know if I wanna be playin
[03:21.82]But runnin up on me like you miss me
[03:23.57]You catching the wrong vibe, packing your *******t and rolling your eyes back
[03:26.49]Flexin up on the corner tossin your dice and rollin your Cadillac
[03:29.31]But man it seems I'm reaching out and touching the wrong *******
[03:31.93]Don't expect it to be pimping get your index off the trigger
[03:34.64]As we bust, us, we leavin em in the dust
[03:37.44]So keep that caine up out of your nose
[03:38.88]I said my piece and then I hush
[03:40.39]As the calendar keeps flippin', *******s dippin'
[03:45.41][Hook]
[03:47.00]Something's gotta change
[03:49.45]Sounds of laughter and happiness turn my teardrops to rain
[03:54.94]Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
[04:00.95]Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way
[04:06.54]Like memories of yesterday
[04:09.05][Verse 3: Andre 3000]
[04:09.49]Dearly beloved we are gathered like soap is to lather we come clean
[04:11.19]Some issues need to be addressed like envelopes I mean
[04:14.14]Oh, like Liberty Bells, yes them bullets keep on ringing
[04:16.75]On fire like the Georgia mass choir we keep on sanging
[04:19.55]Bringing our folks closer together cause they severed us from the get green
[04:22.11]Light and we ain't gon' stop until we hit the big screen
[04:25.16]Psych, because no one is free when others are oppressed
[04:27.78]So, we hit the stage and then we fly back to our nest
[04:30.73]Growing old
[04:31.12][Verse 4: Big Boi]
[04:31.35]Like some eagles, people don't understand
[04:32.84]Just like their parents don't be caring
[04:34.46]I'm speaking bout you playing with that phony stuff you sharing
[04:37.08]In your raps Mercedes Benz and all your riches
[04:39.09]Thinking you got it but get it, get it but you ain't pimping no *******es
[04:41.96]Cause you fall in; falling like leaves into driveways
[04:44.81]Isn't it lovely smoking good and sloppy head on highways
[04:47.55]Fridays are tight but Saturday just makes it old
[04:50.27]Winter nights are hot warm enough to feed your soul
[04:53.04]Growing old
[04:53.98][Hook]
[04:54.45]Something's gotta change
[04:56.59]Sounds of laughter and happiness turn my teardrops to rain
[05:02.02]Been bearing this burden for too many of my days
[05:07.80]Looks like breezes of Autumn done finally blew my way
[05:13.65]Like memories of yesterday(2x)
[06:07.04][Outro]
[06:08.74]See all them leaves must fall down, growing old
[06:12.14]Fat ******* turn to teardrops as fat ass turns to flab
[06:14.98]Sores that was open wounds eventually turn to scab
[06:17.70]Trees bright and green turn yellow brown
[06:19.87]Autumn caught em, see all them leaves must fall down, growin' old(2x)
