Prince Follow

Once again I don't follow trends, they just follow me

just like Israelitis thru the Red Sea

It might take U some time b4 U'll want 2 c

the Undisputed truth and get FREE

My level is now what U must learn 2 rise above

Talk 2 D'Angelo or better yet ?usetlove

Chorus:

How is it that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?

I'm 2 far right 2 get left goin' sideways, Jack

How is that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?

Never We mind what U do, in Moneyapolis - We da MACK!

5 little Indians tryin' 2 steal from my stack

A groove or 2 later, all the critics tell them what they lack

A bowl of them 'O's is like sugar, and no smack

How is it that a brutha always wanna keep another one back?

Chorus

And I... woke this morning 2 a drum roll - RATATAT

B4 I even got outta bed, I got another track

Who's that brushin' they teeth in the bathroom,

slender, fine and black?

Never she mind what U do, in Moneyapolis I'm the MACK

Chorus

4 every royalty point of urs I make a mill$advance

That's y in videos U never c me dance

Y should I, when minorities get half a chance?

In truth: U r 2 me, simply - my biggest fan.

Chuck D.'s rhyme:

Come 1, come all 2 the download ball

There's no curfew 2 hurt U - No substitutions

School's now in session

put down the Smith & Wessons

Real renegades don't invite grenades 2 make the grade

This is a brain raid - Who rise above the lies

Raise above these days

New ways disguised as a craze

Uh, gotcha back against the status they thrown at us

Back against the wall again - HIgh trees catch a lot of wind

Last band standin'

Gotta knack 4 overstandin'

Accordin' 2 plan and look up in the sky

No cable wire

God bless the child

Is that my song playing on the radio?

"It could b G, I can't remember, I wrote it in '84!"

Y'all keep groovin' - U know I got nothin' but love 4 sho

Take it - like Clarence said:

"I got a million of them -

and they're all different, U know."
