tell your girl

защо харесвам jean grae?
ако ви попадне онзи live на the roots от 2004, не го пропускайте.


това е от block party (attack of the attacking things, 2002)

circulate, cultivate your mind and soul, your heart and your body
so stagnant; niggaz, get off your block and travel
stop actin like your flesh is metal and your hood's a magnet
we need to globalize, f
urther spread on this earth
to appreciate the full value of individual worth
to realize how ridiculous the thought of ownership is

and protectin your turf - that's bullshit man

that's how we got colonized

missio
naries create foreign schools and change the native way & thinkin
so in ten years, we can have a foreign colum
bine
in some small village in the amazon, c'mon man


you
need to get out your house, get off your block, and see somethin
go do somethin, go CHANGE somethin, or else we fall for nothin

you need to travel the world
and when you come back,
tell your girl and your girl and your girl..

and your man and your man and your man..
you understand?
so spread the word
...
let our kids go hungry before our wardrobe is outdated

rap careers are drug related, ballplayers, we need more lawyers
more housin and job created, why we waitin for it to be given?

we need to get up, and get out, and make our own livin

instead of just makin more, inner-city children

more doctors in your building, righteous cops next door

...
ladies, know your worth; the way we givin it up

we might as well auction ourselves on ebay, to the lowest bidder

so what if his dough is better? money doesn't make the man

maybe self-sufficiency would better make you understand
