ThiefofBaghdad - The Beat lyrics

[Verse 1] Rock the rhythm, move your feet Everybody gettin' loose to the boogety-beat Be free to the kick, high-hat and snare Discrete, slow, fast or flare Take care of yourself, don't push too hard Don't get stuck, baby- gotta be smart Let it come natural Whether mellow or fast Ya' gotta match the pace About face with the fashion Action, never pa**in' out, smash and dash And when the beat drop, collapse Into the vibe intermittent With the rhymes that I'm kickin' Lifetimes symbolized by the high-hat tickin' Get it, got it, good Understood what it gotta be Not a comedy, on an odyssey With a bundle of bottom feedin' Poverty stricken people bodily wobblin' Wantin' to find a better day With melodic equality Promising nothing Gotta blend in- To flow of the river comin' 'round the bend I can, I kick my steps- I jam All alone with a head full of friends You bend to the rules, I bend to the beat I've been extending a dead end street Rain falls a drizzle Makin' ripples in the creek Keep movin' as one And the cycle don't cease Be free to do Be free to be- you Do whatever you see fit, kid- breath Sigh of relief, yeah, a breath of fresh Keep it movin' to the rhythm Till you learn the steps Left to right, now right to left Spin like a cyclone, break ya' neck Don't look at your feet Ya' gotta keep lookin' forward The dance of life has no end [Hook] Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul Must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul We must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control [Verse 2] No end in sight I speak, I write Part of a cycle- Spark in the night Found my rhythm when I was just a pre-teen Gotta f** the scene up and show my light My life is this, my life is that A bit of blues A little jazz A boom and a bap, fact is Doing it, ruinin' cats Fuming in fact Grabbin' ahold of the rhythm And I never lose track Poetic inevitability is livin' within me Infinity- finishin' anybody with a simile I really be feelin' an innovative bit of energy I dare anybody to Kick a rhyme in my vicinity I'm witty with it, really k**in' All of my shows I suppose you don't know Well, I guess I gotta show You how the f** it goes Alright, I speak, write, read, I flow [Hook] Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul Must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul We must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul Must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul We must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control [Verse 3] Rock with it, rock with it Non-stop with it Clock tic-tocs- I'm still on top with it Watch it when I kick it up A couple f**in' notches Stop in and you'll find that I be k**in' all the gossip Destiny That's a real big word Testin' me Rest in peace to the herbs I merged with the force When I came to the fork The river took hold and I lost all form It set my course Now I got a path For the back and the forth Never givin' in until I master the sword And I'm heard from the west- To the south- to the north Contort it with a white cap In event of an emergency I'm sure to be murderin' Any hurdle inadvertently Drowning? I'm never bound to be bringin' it down I'll be found flowin' on the surface Permanently [Hook] Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul Must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul We must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul Must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control Move your feet, free your soul Speak your peace and free your soul We must adhere to the rhythm of life The beat maintains complete control
