Ice Cube - Take Me Away lyrics

[Ice Cube] Hahaha, today was a good day Know what?, sometimes I just get on my knees You know what I mean? And pray to the man with the master plan To swoop on down (swoop on down) On that mothership, scoop a n***a up... Lord have mercy, my people so thirsty Come feed 'em, either Jesus or Muhammad All we get is vomit, come like a comet Put it in my brain Lord, put it in my stomach Only you can run it, I'mma learn from it Do what I gotta do, try not to plummet America eats its youth like reptiles Don't worry bout tomorrow, let's get this right now They want to run us in the ground Educate yourself before they dumb you down Get your money boy, the legal way Beat 'em with they own bullsh** if you may Now rich white men they got the world f**ed up Why should I give a f** about a styrofoam cup? Environmental scene, I'll keep it clean But if I go green, you know what I mean, b**h [Hook] Take me away from these people Take me away from these people (Take me away) Take me away from these people Take me away from these people [Ice Cube] Ice Cube for President Let's just do it for the hell of it See how I'd run the government - make money irrelevant I might tell a chick, it's illegal to be celibate Secret Service don't know where the hell I went Sorry y'all, I had to f** a Superdelegate Dream ticket, Ice Cube and Obama American dream, Ice Cube and yo' mama The Terminator, are you Sarah Connor? Arnold Schwarzenegger, can k** who he wanna? In California, they strap you to a gurney And murder yo' a**, in front of your attorney Do you really wanna take this journey? Ain't scared of none of y'all motherf**ers like Bernie Mac (step back) Step back, I got the Mac-11 Unlike Obama, I'mma have to back my reverand [Hook] Take me away from these people Take me away from these people (Take me away) Take me away from these people Take me away from these people [Ice Cube] Now the Lord is my shepherd, my flow is respected Worldwide, from the West I got to rep it So please check it, cause my style is infected With the virus, Ice Cube's the Osiris I bail through, they wanna put me up in Bellevue Cause my point of view is not red, white and blue It's black and blue residue I know what crack can do, to a whole f**in' avenue Speak on it and they'll get mad at you You think I do this bullsh** for your gratitude? I'm a n***a With a Attitude I'mma do what I gotta do just to change my latitude Pimp the system, rollin' with my diamonds glistenin' And n***as listenin', from your local prison I'm a prism, your only vision is a rainbow In the sky when I spit the ism, come on [Hook] Take me away from these people (Take me away) Take me away from these people (Take me away) Take me away from these people (Take me away) Take me away from these people
