4. _ S.O.S.
S.O.S.
breaker breaker 1 9 maydey
surviving off of pennies until my next payday
all I ever wanted was a real nice lady
a clean pair of socks
and some fish for my gravy
but all I get is rice
which will have to suffice
coz I always used to think I didn't need no advice
so I never ever really tried to heed no advice
but in the end we all pay the price
so let's get to the point (point point)
of the whole situation
so many obstacles
so many confronations
but still I'm focused on reaching every station
coz destiny is my destination
I came to make it happen
instead of wasting time I don't got
the time is now
coz I only got one shot
navigating through the schemes
and the intricate plots
coz you and I is all we got
lets make it happen
S.O.S.

(Lee Majors verse)
why
why is the world round
why do the suckas bite
why do the freaks come out at night
why they paint Jesus white
I sit and wonder why
we breakin hip hop laws
doing videos in houses that we know ain't yours
representing projects
man them shits ain't yours (check your lease)
what I release I'll make you shit in your draws
Well then
hear what I say (OK)
your begin for an easy way
well I don't know (well I don't know)
oh yes I don't know
Yo light
let me let these niggas know
its like all I ever wanted was a girl with
respect and a 3rd eye
DKNY ain't what makes you fly
lights in my face
government in my pocket
its hard to be a prophet and still make a profit

(Mos Def)
I swing with phat cats to smack tracks over phat raps
it's all of that we tread the BK back road (brooklyn)
'96 about to put it on
hey baby palm
put a quarter upon the needle head
to hold it still while I lace up the verbal threat
now watch me sew shit up
mos def in your spot about to blow shit up
see i've been rhyming since when I was growing up
that's why I say that shit that
make the party open up
like the sky
plus my voice is fly
I roll with dave mase
and wonder why
I rock it from Medina green on to the strong i-i
land on my feet coz I'm a cool cat
make the kids around my way say
how you do that
be careful what you say coz ain't no takebacks
and if you makin' moves
don't fake jacks
perhaps that's the sound when you smack the drum skin
whenever y'all want to jump in
man I don't want the landlord kicking my door in
you tired of getting high but you
never know when
and fuck around and get low again
but you can always be certain my friend
how your low tide is always gonna come in
it's like that
so check it on out y'all

(It's like right about now you're probably sitting on
your couch thinking, damn what is son doing.
I don't understand

before you a mc
you a artist

so make that music

9. _ Love Song
Everybody should get down oh yes (oh yes) oh yes
Everybody groove to the music
And do what you like to oh yeah (oh yeah)
Y'all know we rock thorough (Yeah we rock thorough)
For the whole world (The whole world)
Five boroughs so check it out
I came all the way from Brooklyn to present my rep
Lyrically deep like sleep; I rock hard like Led Zepp
I take steps and leave impressions on planets
More complicated than life so rappers can not understand it
Talking that hardcore shit; but I don't buy it
Sit down eat your slice of pizza and be quiet!
Cause all that noise you talk is not needed
I cut headz off at the knees and leave em all defeated
So stay seated, or get deleted from the program
Let it be known I don't follow cause I'm my own man
With my own plan, cause the mind is infinite
We got four minutes, so everybody get widdit!
Cause all my people out in Brooklyn get LOVE
Cause all my people out in Queens get LOVE
Uptown and Boogie Down you get LOVE
Strong Island/Shaolin you get LOVE
You can send MC's in - squads of six and we take two each
I stand out like seeing Moses at the beach - splitting waves
My style's the newest rhyme craze
Blow up, like grenades, hit words, without shades
Hold ya lighter, the Flatbush dolla camp writer
Roll with more Dangerous Minds than Michelle Pfeiffer
Pay the piper, I lay the pipe just like a plumber
Went without a ride for one too many summers, NOW
I'm out to get the cream like Carnation
Send headz home like George Bush did to Haitians
No patience, I got ta have it, the fine fabric
I learned The Facts of Life from Mrs. Garrett
But now I'ma do it my Way like Carlito
Whether it's in sweatpants or even tuxedos
We know - if this rap thing, don't make loot
I take it back to '86, stick niggaz for they Troops
We come to tell the people dem, we're talkin one love
One are we in love, a way dem cyan't dub
They'll find it in a pub, and I said in our club
Wha-wha-one love (one love) gonna take it, gonna take it
Gonna take your jeans and your dungarees and it will be on sale
Things I can try to make you move on the wail
Aiyyo, no play yo, don't go astray yo
No matter follow me come be a one of these day yo
I can't believe what dem want in all de mornin'
So I, I came back in all de evenin'
Da same thing that made the lights out, be sing
Rude boy, bad-a-bing, bad-a-bing, now everybody
Cause all my people Up North get LOVE
And all my people Down South get LOVE
And all my people in the East get LOVE
And all my peoples out West get LOVE
And all over the world we get LOVE
All over the world we get LOVE
All over the world we get LOVE
We get LOVE! WE GET LOVE!
We get, love everywhere we go
We get love at every show
We get love everywhere we ride
We get love at every stop
This is a station, identification
For the entire nation
Come to bring sensation, oh yes!
It's Da Bush Babee clan
Come to make you understand
That we get love all over the land
All over the land
All over the land, all over the land
All over the land, all over the land
Yeah, oh yeah, yeah, yeah
Word up, it's the Mos Def
With Da Bush Babees
And mad man Merc and the De La
Word up, bringing it to you the nine-six
It's all magic no tricks, knahmsayin?
Comin widdit
You gonna love it when you get it
Ev-ery-body, groove to the music
Ev-ery-body, groove to the music
Ev-ery-body... HEY YOU GUYS!!

12. _ Intro
[Featuring Mos Def]
[Mos Def]
Gravity..
Uh..ha..ha..ha..ha
Yeah gravity is all around
gravity get up or gravity get down
Some heads want to escape but don't try
you contempt to get fly but you can't defy
And just when you thought you strayed far away
here comes gravity to save the day
here comes gravity to save the day
here comes gravity gravity...
Definition: now plural...gravities...
(1) importance
(2) seriousness
(3) weight
(4) the attraction of bodies toward the center of the earth
(5) what you are listening to right now
Gravity...you know it make me
think about the space program and...
NASA and all that, know what I'm sayin'
an think he got some place
in space, he do!
It's called Earth
We better off just...
holdin' down this little square that God gave us
Instead of tryin' to...
question the unquestionable
You try to claim the unknown
the unknown claim you...
Gravity is what we
must submit to
[Hook]
New Negro definition:
Gravity is your mother's hand
Gravity is your father's voice
Gravity is your baby's heartbeat in his sleep
Gravity is visiting you birthplace
divine is your race
Gravity is... tender memories of hard times
Gravity put the letters together in my rhyme
Gravity... is all around
Gravity... make we all get down, check it...
Gravity is all around
gravity get up, gravity get down
Some heads want to escape but don't try
you contempt to get fly but you can't defy
Just when you thought you strayed far away
here comes gravity to save the day
man compared to gravity, son we all jack new
submit to the law 'cause it's a must to do
submit to the law 'cause it's a must to do
submit to the law 'cause it's a must for you
