THE ROOTS

THE ROOTS - Don't Feel Right lyrics

[Chorus]

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I don't feel it no more

Things don't feel right over here

Lately I ain't been seein' clear

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

Seems to me nowadays things have changed

I don't know if I feel the same

[Verse 1 - Black Thought]

Yo, in the land of the unseen hand, and hold trouble

Theorize your game, it's difficult to roll a double

The struggle ain't right up in your face, it's more subtle

But it's still comin' across like the bridge and tunnel vision

I try to school these bucks, but they don't wanna listen

That's the reason the system makin' its paper from the prison

And that's the reason we livin' where they don't wanna visit

Where the dope slang and keep swayin' like Sonny Liston

The money missin' and there's mouths to feed

Yet the brain kickin', thinkin' of a thousand things

Remember back in the days, when the kitchen had eggs

And pancakes, thicken and greens and Kool Aid

When the 'fridgerator naked then the cupboard is bare

People got to strip naked, stick 'em up in the air

Wasn't lies when they told you wasn't nothin' to fear

Somethin' don't feel right out here, nahmsayin'? Check it out

[Chorus]

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I don't feel it no more

Things don't feel right over here

Lately I ain't been seein' clear

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

Seems to me nowadays things have changed

I don't know if I feel the same

[Verse 2 - Black Thought]

Look, my eyes open 'cause I'm really a rocksmith

And when inviting me thoughts, I'm really unboxin'

My main adversary in this silly concoction

Freeze your face like bosilium toxin

If you ain't tryin' to get popped, then give me a option

Helicopters choppin' from Philly to Compton

The Jones is the richest since the Smiths & the Johnson's

If you ain't sayin' nothin', you a system's accomplice

It should play with your conscience, do away with the nonsense

I'm overseeing anything within my circumference

This ain't a press junket, I ain't seekin' responses

I stand where the people got the heat in they pocket

You mesmerized by the calm nonchalant-ness

I spit a dart, rub on some John Hitchcock shit

If you ain't speakin' your life, your rhyme's adopted

If it don't feel right, then stop it, you nahmsayin'?

[Chorus]

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I don't feel it no more

Things don't feel right over here

Lately I ain't been seein' clear

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

Seems to me nowadays things have changed

I don't know if I feel the same

[Verse 3 - Black Thought]

Yo, field you work in, weapon producin'

Natural disaster got the planet in a panic

We all gots to make that livin'

Sex, drugs, murder, politics and religion

Forms of hustlin', watch who you put all your trust in

Worldwide, we coincide with who sufferin'

Who never had shit and ain't got nothin'

But most strugglin', and make you wanna run up in the ma' fuckin'

With hots on for a piece of the cake back

I can't work for it, I can certainly take that

I'm fired up, thinkin' about the payback, except

You fuck around and be a enemy of the state, black

Ill, but that'd be too real for TV

It's crazy when you too real to be free

If you ain't got no paper then steal this CD

Listen man, I'll let you know how it feel to be me, it don't feel

[Chorus]

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I don't feel it no more

Things don't feel right over here

Lately I ain't been seein' clear

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

It don't feel right, it don't feel right

It don't feel, it don't feel, I can't feel it no more

Seems to me nowadays things have changed

I don't know if I feel the same
