Reflection Eternal - The Express lyrics

[Talib Kweli] "There comes a time-" Hi-Tek, who we rockin wit? "In every young mans life when-" That's right we rockin with the best "He must go out into the world" Ya ya ya yo yo [Verse 1] I don't just spit, I hauck loogies on these emcee floozies Y'all beggars can't afford to be choosy Wanna bubble like jacuzzis, act bouigey, you watchin to many movies These cats is fruity and got it mixed up like smoothies Who are we? Yours truly, fist in the air like Huey Smoke 'em one-by-one like Lucy's, then we skate like 'ooty Just because yur rhymes is booty don't mean you "The sh**" Yo my style is universal, I get around like orbit I got this all up in my veins, so f** what you sayin Your stuck in the same frame of mind, ain't no duckin my rain When it's times for storms to brew, I'm _Warning_ you like Notorious Before we bust, I won't be courteous Even if ya moms is in the audience, I'm still the goriest Road warrior, whose story is more glorious than Euphoria And you got it all up in you, and ain't nobody stoppin you If you don't believe us you could check out how we rock for you [Hook] Can't stop, don't stop Rockin to the rhythem cuz I I get down and (Brooklyn) I get down and (to put it down) I get down and I (Like UNI) I get down (The uptown) Gets down and sha-na-na Can't stop, don't stop Rockin to the rhythem cuz I I get down and (Cincinnati) I get down and (Madtown) I get down and (Detroit) I get down and (Chicago) Ah ah ah, sha-na-na [Verse 2] Kweli, that's me, the king, the emcee Rhyme, get mine on the T-O-P Can another emcee ever fu*k with me? (Hell no!) "Y'all n***as Tickle Me like Elmo" Yo I got hip-hop on deadlock You wanna pose like models, you catchin headshots My roots extend to bedrock I stay grounded The perfect balance, I found it And I got everybody feelin it My aura shine like ice and ain't nobody stealin it Ain't no need to say "Run your j**els" when I'm revealin it (True) And droppin it, on your stupid a** and not concealin it (Put it on 'em) Cats want you in the dark, no switch that In fact them cats want you in the pitch black Where the light switch at? This sh**'s wack You try to get some "Get Back," that's how a b**h act So sit back and observe these gentlemen With that melanin, we see through the swine like gelatin So never question my relevance, manifestin all elements Take hip-hop and develop it, by injectin intelligence Wackness, you don't just smell of it, you reek in it We stay feakin it, so the title we keepin it Hi-Tek is the best kept secret since Diamond D Kweli consider me the opitimy of emcee So you know what that mean to me - eternally we stand out And make them other dudes look like scenery "Won't stop" "Doin it..real" "Hip-Hop..." [--Havoc (Mobb Deep) [Hook] Cuz we can't stop, don't stop Rockin to the rhythem cuz I I get down and (Zimbabwe) I get down and (Nigeria) I get down and (In Japan) I get down and (And Cuba gets down) Sha-na-na (And Jamaica gets down) [Verse 3] Its the Reflection Eternal ('Ternal) To universal for rehearsal No commercials, still we make sh** pop like kernals From Quinn Shore to Myrtle Whether you stay sober or more pissy than a urinal My illness is terminal, it's disgustin The way we be, shuttin down the function I make my name end any emcee discussion (Who?) Outta whose whips more fatter, who rock the most ice While my subject matter shatter your whole concept of nice You can look throughout history books to see whose liver I'm prehistoric, got the Eye of the Sabertooth Tiger too Rip into the flesh of the track Counterattack before you act with insight I see clear you blind as a bat Dwellin in caves, tellin the slaves what'chu think they wanna hear I swear, my aunt told me the definition of fear is 'f** everything and run,' that's what you did But the party just begun and we rockin 'til we see the sun Can't stop "Make a choice" Don't stop "Brooklyn, New York City" [--Talib (BlackStar) Won't stop "Chicago" Cuz I, I get down and (Everybody) I get down and.. Can't stop "Cincinnati!" Don't stop "L.A." Yo we won't stop "Southeast to west-" Cuz I, get down and Get down and Get down and Can't stop, don't stop Rockin to the rhythem cuz I I get down and (Atlanta gets down) I get down and (L.A. get down) I get down and (Illadelph get down, and the Bay) It's like sha-na-na Can't stop.. _________________________________________________________________
