The Roots - The Roots Song Wale is On lyrics

[Intro (?uestlove & Chrisette Michele)] Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying Yesterday I saw a B-girl crying I walked up and asked what's wrong She told me that the radio's been playing the same song all day long [Verse 1 - Black Thought] So get your gla** lift it up in the toast position We getting paper like John Travolta get it Cause we focused wit it we supposed to get it You know me and my whole squad we so committed We not the kids cooling out on the sofa with it We about to dominate the globe like Oprah did it We getting paper like John Travolta n***a [Verse 2 - Wale] Hip-Hop ain't dead cuz the pulse is in us I got the Everclear flow, they mimosa with it We are the hope of the culture, they supposed to listen And I'm supposed to pivot like I'm a forward in the league, I'm Oden with it Yet don't owe them n***as nothing but potent lyrics But if you ain't got the dance they revoke your spinning So good rappers ain't eating they Olsen twining But I'm so committed, they have grown familiar With the counterfeit hitters they so-so with it, but they are Sosa with it They Mark McGuire with the written, I'm Rodriguez On the road to riches this is the fork I'm hitting This is the trial and error era no co-defendant I push The Seed every time like I'm Cody with it I said the one-hit wonders pneumonia to us I don't know you n***as, hit the road my n***a [Intro] [Verse 1]
