shabazz palaces - a mess (live) lyrics

[verse 1]
see i’m just like you, yeah i know i’m a mess
take a minute to think, take a hour to dress
got this pain in my neck, pain from starin’ at stars
i can’t find the remote, drinkin’ drivin’ my car
keep lookin’ for love, finding beautiful pain
told myself i should stop, but i’m at it again
stirrin’ up my kool+aid, watch these gangstas parade
pretty sisters get shunned, b+tch n+ggas i fade
see i’m from up the block, wear my hat with it c+cked
sometimes i hate my life, wish i ain’t love it so much
addicted to her touch, tryin’ to find me a place
tryna shine get my taste, drink and dance to the cuts
got issues with trust, stay wonderin’ why
tryin’ to feel it in herе, before i’m up to the sky
so whatеver’s your mic, spit your game through it tight
y’ain’t promised daylight, so i’m steppin’ tonight
to go, but we all go (yeah!)

[chorus]
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)

[bridge 1]
sh+t, to the club, to the till, to the boogie, the spot
where the dudes and the birds dress cold and get hot
9+to+5’ers tryna stay alive
sky up and split it, you know i’m with it
the jamdowns (yeah!)
to centrals (yeah!)
the bottoms (yeah!)
for gunbeats (yeah!)
shabazz yeah (yeah!)
and oldheads (yeah!)
the glitter gang straight off the ace (yeah!)
[verse 2]
see i’m just like you, always pressed for my time
need a sec to unwind, non+stop’s all i got
first they wants to f+cks with you ’cause you one+of+a+kind
then you can’t catch them on the line, sh+t went to cold from hot
hollywood’s on their mind, all chasing it blind
make sure that your shine’s the results of your grind
not just runnin’ some lines, with your gun and your ride
cause out that sh+t imma climb, it’s about that time
to go, but we all go (yeah!)

[chorus]
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)

[bridge 2]
ok, everybody got to go to school and learn
the golden rule so you can know when you get burned
to dance whenever the beat is concerned
then wait your turn, then wait your turn, then wait your turn
the whispers say (yeah!)
the oil say (yeah!)
the brothers say (yeah!)
the money say (yeah!)
tomorrow[?] say (yeah!)
the dancers say (yeah!)
the rebels say (yeah!)
keep it movin’, keep it movin’, keep it movin’
say (yeah!)
the people say (yeah!)
the sisters say (yeah!)
the miss’ll say (yeah!)
the listeners say (yeah!)
right on say (yeah!)
baby say (yeah!)
the star’s the limit
alright now
[verse 3]
now on the night i was born, you seen the moon on her back
superfly laid the terms, n+ggas sign the contracts
priest linked in his ‘lac, all us dreamin’ in black
white lights high beamin’, we can’t see where we at
“f+ck that” was the rap, let’s get a piece of the ac’
pigs come in through the front, we takin’ off out the back
i was raised to the facts by starlets and jacks
type of cats that see the pigs they gon’ pull out straps
they slappin’ bones in the kitchen, not just watchin’ i’m listenin’
livin’ life in that rhythm, too much taking no giving
you rap n+ggas, what is it? ah, do what you do
but when you say it’s for us, why’s it always ’bout you?
imma dance to it though, romance with my girl
turn my pain into glitter, gold dips with a swirl
see i come from them slaves, so i’m live and i’m true
brave real and i’m cool, see i’m just like you
i’m here where we all go

[chorus]
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)
we all go (yeah!)

[outro]
we go to it and through it, if we do it at all
the higher that you get up, the more you expose
watch your end so it grows
cause everybody get to that one last pose
