Reggie Noble - Can You Hear Me Now lyrics

[Scratching] Somebody in the house say, "Yeah!" If y'all really like to rock the funky beats, somebody say, "Hell yeah!" I like that from the people up top, check this out [VERSE 1] Damn if I be some slave again Got no fake a** friends and no timbs or rims Sure 'nuff, got no designer names And I never played no video games I ain't got no diamond rings No bling, and no minks and no 2 earrings And no pimp gla**es mugs or cups and things Or whatever the hell they all be carryin' Don't treat my highs too high or my lows too low You won't see my soul sold on no video Don't need no checks to get no chicks Or be some hypocrite to get you on my dick (Back) So let the young sing and rap to the young As long as y'all don't think freedom is free to be dumb, now [Hook] Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now (Say "ho!") (Yo Chuck, kick it to 'em, man!) [VERSE 2] Its suicidal to think I'm your American idol Hypnotic trapped in a 3000 mile box Chicks bobby socks, today be Botox Now that hip-hop's the new so called rock Parents dressin' the outside Of their kids and what they wear instead of stressin' the inside Way back , my peoples gave me pride Now in 2004 i ain't gotta hide If you can't afford it just leave it to the side Cause you looking real stupid with that tear in your eye Gotta a '94 and I hear you talkin But its damn sure better than walkin' It might be old, you know it sure ain't gold Better than stylin' in the cold It ain't no rolls, and won't get stole But you won't see me walking on no side of the road [Hook] Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now (Say "ho!") (Yo Chuck, kick it to 'em, man!) [VERSE 3] At the age i am now, if i can't teach I shouldn't even open up my mouth to begin to speak I need some radio to help me reach But i heard they get their money on by makin' you weak Drowning in the sea of some big dose of now No past no future Let the young grow wild Ain't gave em nothin' some done robbed the child From substance ont currr , fill em up wit style Like hip-hop started on TRL Like wow, took the game and made it a damn shame Hell wit history you dont even Know my name I ain't the same damn thing That yall used to playin Im that non stop rocket heading to your brain Now that's what im sayin [Hook] Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now (Say "ho!") (Yo Chuck, kick it to 'em, man!) [VERSE 4] I may not got no flow but I ain't pimped by no negro Backed by some cracka with his a** by the door Therefore I can never be poor Cause my mind, body, and soul cannot be sold Priceless, so i avoid the triflin' Words in my cipher, stuff y'all can't get enough off Got's no time for somebody's jail My time is just like the US Mail My time is richer Than them new Astro Pitchers I be damned if my face be under some picture Where you heard the N-word So save your liquid P.E., we just here to flip it Find somebody new to get with The next time you hear A cat who can't stand or even look in the mirror [Hook] Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now Can you hear me now (Say "ho!") (Yo Chuck, kick it to 'em, man!)
