Peace...Peace, Peace
It's the Bey
Thank you very kindly, mashallah
You could have been anywhere in the world, but you're here with us
We truly appreciate that
(Mos Def)
Bey...
This is the way it is, this how we gotta live
It's peace, power, understanding no cowardice
I got the sharps on, they keep the smarts on
Custom fitted, surgeon throwing the dark song
Good lordy, sweet Jesus and hot sauce
Hot butter, the big angles and pop corn
The over-range, the top on the top gone
The underground, the top dog at the ball
The crescent and the star
The seven inner R's
Sciences and all
Vibrant in the dark
At the speed of thought, wow
The mind's so powerful
It ain't long for your dreams it's surrounding you
Caution caution, careful careful
A whole lot of fun but it ain't that simple
The mathematic, asiatic, black magic, rap captains stay active free captives
Baby what's happening?
Listen, life is fantastic
Beautiful and tragic
Plain, classic
Long as I'm alive I'mma never stop rapping
It's honest work for honest bastards
Made in Manhattan, raised outta Brooklyn
It ain't shit that you can do but keep looking
Shook, cause they all crooks
My hands keep clean even off the books, see yo
This is the way it is, this how we gotta live
It's peace power over standing no cowardice
I got the sharks on, they keep the sharks off
Custom-fitted, surgeon throwing the smart song
It's Good lordy, sweet Jesus and hot sauce
The hot butter, the big screens and pop corn
The over-ranged, the top gone, the top jaw
The underground the top dog at the ball
The crescent and the star
The seven inner R's
Sciences and all
Vibrant in the dark
At the speed of thought, wow
It's so powerful
It was all a dream, now it's a surrounding view
Caution Caution, Careful Careful
So much fun can it be so simple?
Mathematic, Asiatic, black magic, rap active, Free and keep captive
Baby what's happening?
Listen, life is fantastic
Beautiful and tragic
Plain, Classic
Long as I'm alive I'mma never stay rapping
Psych, super nice!
Made in Manhattan, born in Brooklyn
It ain't nothing you can do but keep looking
They shook, cause they all crooks
His number unlisted and off the hook
So, yo
This is the way it is, this how we gotta live
It's peace power over standing no cowardice
Get the smarts on, keep the smarts on
Custom fitted surgeon putting the dark song
Good lordy sweet jesus and pop-corn
Fresh water, clean lines and new borns
The open-range, the top on, the top jaw
The underground, the top dog the air ball
The crescent and the star
The seven inner R's
Sciences and all
Vibrant in the dark
At the speed of thought
