[00:17.47] Life, dance, stay, free, we, live
[00:24.99] And the beat goes
[00:34.20] (X2)
[00:59.71] Make noise for the loved ones
[01:01.72] Bang on the drums
[01:02.62] Celebrate where you come from
[01:03.50] Wake up in the morning its a blessing
[01:04.89] Every day is a prayer
[01:05.86] And you feel it right there, right here
[01:06.86] But you want a little somethin' somethin'
[01:08.74] Carry on til the evenin' is teethin'
[01:09.71] Reach another day another search for the reason
[01:12.57] And then the night bites in what it is
[01:13.92] Learn how to dream enough to learn to live
[01:16.53] Positive, affirmative, gotta make it happen like
[01:18.54] There's an alternative now whose turn it is
[01:20.85] Mine and I earn and give to stay permanent
[01:22.81] Shock shock waves didn't hold your weight
[01:25.15] Now you wanna change the clock but then it all stops
[01:27.58] And we forget that, we wanna get back
[01:29.33] To where we left off, a few steps off
[01:31.66] You wanna get on, you gotta get right
[01:33.55] Hold on sit tight, look at the dim light
[01:35.79] Take a breath, ask yes with some insight
[01:37.92] Say yes from your belly through your wind pipe
[01:40.06] And now it feels like you probably should've been right
[01:42.27] And it feels good, feels like you never left
[01:44.45] Lil' young cat got that shit togetherness
[01:46.36] Feel high like mount everest, forever fresh
[01:48.50] So good, I think we want another yes
[01:50.77] But know the facism and classism
[01:52.93] Up to being passed like they never had rhythm
[01:55.10] In the first place, worst case scenario
[01:57.27] We'll be seein and hearin and now we're stereo
[01:59.45] Same shit, different assholes flash the full
[02:01.32] Capture cowboy, take away his lasso
[02:03.60] We're goin forth to a new day our own way
[02:05.65] This is high time, not what they say
[02:07.61] They're playin' foul play, i'm playin' james brown
[02:09.97] We're gonna find us the truth every day now
[02:11.82] They only weigh out, lookin' for a way out
[02:14.16] I just got here, and i'm stayin'... I'm just sayin'
[02:24.39] And the beat goes
[02:33.19] Life, love, dance, sing, no, war, stay, free, we, can, live, yes
[02:40.87] And the beat goes
[02:49.90] (X2)
[03:15.43] Yen, Euro, Dollar sign, wipe my soul
[03:17.31] Try to keep the money all mine
[03:18.91] All the numbers keepin' your health
[03:20.08] I give some thought but my feelin' is felt
[03:21.50] I can find out when this feelin' is felt
[03:23.45] It's like that we don't gotta deal with needle in this feelin' itself
[03:25.75] Inside when we're screamin' for help on the outside
[03:27.45] Shinin' for the public, the DJ's love it
[03:30.35] We're movin' with the cruise control, groove with the soul
[03:32.48] It's new or it's old, if it's true then it's told
[03:34.42] The negro spiritual ah-code sexual ode
[03:36.22] 204-9 area code, if it's good then it must be sold
[03:39.33] That's what they say, but i'm still not sold
[03:41.28] Still loyal to the rhythm and the melody
[03:43.13] The beat and it's tellin' me, words that weigh heavily
[03:44.90] Open my heart readily, good days they better be soon
[03:47.12] Because i'm almost changin' my mind
[03:49.03] (Yes)
[03:49.98] And i'm almost changin' my blinds
[03:51.27] Spent a lot of time seekin'to find
[03:52.75] It's more about the truth and the treat
[03:54.39] Not about the lyric or the beat
[03:56.03] It's more about the lines fillin' the seats
[03:57.97] People jump in band wagons and end up on cruises
[04:00.16] Different ideas still might fall to confusion
[04:02.05] I spent a lot of time losin', still in the game
[04:04.23] Enough practice, still sharp with the aim
[04:05.85] Teeter-totter never came to my side, still enjoyin' the ride
[04:08.24] I put my weight down just the same
[04:10.40] Fuck pride foes died so I can tell you my name
[04:12.26] Just leave from my life, lil' yes not a baby in sight
[04:14.47] Except maybe that I may be right (yes)
[04:16.11] But the world shakes stayin up in dangerous heights
[04:18.79] It had to come down twenty-nine flights
[04:20.45] And when he wasn't dead, tell me what you think he said
[04:22.81] Life, love, dance, sing, no, war, stay, free, we, can, live, yes
[04:57.33] And the beat goes
[04:58.51] (X2)
[05:58.07]
