Black Eyed Peas - Hey Mama Lyrics lyrics

(feat. K-Os & Thrust)

[K-OS]

You know I roll with the strength of a lion upon the ground

When I pounce on the rhythm and prey upon ill sounds

Resonate from the T-dot, making the spot hot

For pigs who sweat like those kids from Welcome Back Kotter

I'm not selling my soul 'cause I'm an artist

Emcees waste time to be preceived as the hardest

The meek posess the earth, so stay modest

I treat the music flows like a goddess

Never bow, 'cause if you do then you get caught up in this game

Seekin' your own fame, try to fortify your name

The only name to fortify is that of the creator

Remember what happened to Darth Vader? Darkside

[Thrust]

Sit back, relax, put on your head gear

Let me take you on a ride through the atmosphere

Just sit back, relax, put on your head gear

Yo, straight through the atmosphere

Just sit back, relax, put on your head gear

Let me take you a ride through the atmosphere

[K-OS]

You know the flow is unstoppable

Microphones keep it rockable

Dropable lyrics, until your body gives you spirit

Started kickin rhymes back in 1989

Some people thought I really didn't even know the time

So I kept it to myself, lyrics on the shelf

Brain food aimed at his strained mental health

I was gonna quit back then, and I admit it

The industry was dirty and I couldn't get wit' it

Had one more chance to make your morse feel the presence

Hooked up this video called Musical Essence

Now I'm livin' every single day on Rap City

And every single head thinks my style's too pretty

So I'm thinkin' and blinkin', my mind is continually sinkin'

Into abysses and not regrettin' the way I came out

Losin' mad light in this harsh reality

But there's always something there to remind me

[Thrust]

Thrust, descender, Thrust be lastin'

My style flowin' like a river

Emcees steppin' up, it's like another sliver

It's up your spine, feel the chill

Like thoughts, Thrust be comin' through, tell you this

Lyrically specialist, down with Grassroots

The K-OS got the flavor comin' through, ya know

It's like the truth, spinnin' to the youth and all the fans

Tell a person, tell the next man

[K-OS]

Now as I awake from the mist

24 years of lies, I'm kind of pissed

'Cause my pops never told me

And when I try to tell him yo, he says I'm insane

For using one hemisphere of the brain, he's not to blame

'Cause we all trapped, they misconstrued every fact

So I'm incarnated in session to bring it back

To the days when we used to go craze up in the Spectrum

Emcees be sayin' nothing out they rectum

Dissect 'em

Who dat? I'm talkin' 'bout the psuedo-intellects

Talkin' about praisin' the earth but giving our women no respect

So what you sayin', huh? What you sayin', B?

You contradictin' every single word you sprayin', see?

3-PO's is what these rappers be like with gold clothes

Just computer parts pimpin' the art to make dough

Got the beat from the Murray, keep the vibe Grassroots

You can tell the fradulance by the fruit

[Thrust]

Vibin', know what I'm sayin'?

My man, K-OS

Somethin' for the mind

Mind power

Bottom of the ninth

Who's up to bat?

No time for wastin', you know what I'm sayin'?

Grassroots, Thrust

Yo, we comin' through like this

For the nine lucky

It don't stop

Not ever

Eternal
