[Scratched Sample: Q-Tip]
That elevates my mind, makes me pick up and go x5
[Intro: Haircut AKA Mayer Hawthorne]
Wa**up ya'll?
Isolation? Yeah, I'll give it a shot
[Verse 1: Haircut]
And all of a sudden we unapproachable?
sh**, everybody needs a helping hand right
I'm in the same boat floating with you
I don't hold my breath for nothing
Since I started writing rhymes back in '92
From Oakland to the Brooklyn Zoo
Coming soon to a town near you
So pick my record up
Cause I'm independent and loving it but struggling too
[Chorus: Haircut]
Elevate your mind, let your conscious free
You rocking to the sounds of the Pro Nasty
Yeah, we hear to put a stop to the monotony
With all the fake-a** clones and carbon copies
Does the radio decide what you like to hear?
Does the television tell you what's the song of the year?
Well if so, then pay attention, get your signals clear
Cue up the innovators cause we dying out here
[Verse 2: Haircut]
Put your hands up, high where the birds be
Let it spread to your shoulders like a
Man it irks me
Just stay where you are, right?
Yeah, it's easier that way
Businessman in suits playing video games on their PDA
And ??? from church got a brother stuck at the drug store
We the swimsuit issue ya'll waited 11 months for
What's your, particular style and focus?
Is it whatever the TV push in front of your noses?
Deal with this insomniac flow overdoses
Of course it's the Lab Techs
Cliff Notes madness
Sounds of blackness
But I lie awake
[Chorus: Haircut]
Elevate, elevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Cliff Notes break it apart, ya'll
