Mind Power Lyrics

    Q-tip:
    Your new lesson is to realize the mission when you hear it
    Mcin, see i got this in my spirit
    I got verses like mahalia singin church hymns
    So strap up because you skatin on ice that's wild thin
    A weak foundation doesn't make a good home
    That's why mine is built on chrome microphones
    We bout to do it theoretically, insteadibly, to the medley
    Come on
    It's the complete kamal, unique, fareed, breed
    That'll keep you broke down like a horse 5 speed
    So move buddy, a yo we got to get this money
    In this land of dead and crummy, ain't a damn thing funny
    A yo, shout out to mobb deep, the extra p
    Busta rhymes, de la, the j beez, so don't sleep
    We got reality for the carriage
    Stayin sincere to this, so i know we gonna manage
    Give me, liberty in mass amounts and swiss bank accounts
    With the sustainer, it'll be real
    So me and my brothas, we can sit down and build
    Like rampage with that last boy scout appeal
    We got that silk, satin, manhattan intelligence feel
    That keeps everything on even keels
    So all you slow brothas talkin yang, ya poo tang
    Now, we gonna show you how the real crew bang

    Consequence:
    A yo, i bring it to you live kid, queens niggaz love static
    Your rap's had it, braggin more numbers than mathematics
    I get brains on progmatic from leavin wet dreams shattered
    That's the same copy gettin in your mug shot
    I stays hot like summertime on lbq and boo boo
    The love shack is 192, my joint's smooth
    To watch them niggaz fall like linque
    I keeps it brand new like school shoppin
    It's on and poppin
    The club peeps this nigga's steez like rayon
    You get laid off while i'll be gamin ghetto girl like 8-off
    The verdict's in, i be the look of blendin
    Give up your goods cuz it's the start of your endin


    Q-tip:
    (where ya at?) we seein life for what it is
    (where ya at?) we get this money for these kids
    (where ya at?) we bout to build the foundation
    (where ya at?)

    Phife:
    Now, all that glock totin' trash you talk will not prevail
    It's stale, you'll either be dead or in jail
    I keeps it realer than the local one mill
    Denouncin tough guy wannabes that look smoother than silk
    That's the sound of the man gettin yanked off the stage
    Tryin to front like he mad paid
    Suckin so bad, we threw his mama off the train (insane)
    Mcs are just givin it all away (ok)
    Who said him know about the quest type sound?
    Mess around and get your ass knocked down (clown)
    I dedicate this to the posers that play hard
    You wanna hear some rhymes, well come bring your bodyguard
    So he can peep the worldwide willie that we display
    Leavin all mcs in complete disarray
    I beez a veteran mc, crushin crews for years
    You frontin hard, when you softer than the berenstain bears
    Yeah, chumps be like "phife, that ain't fair"
    Fuck outta here, do i look like i care
    Come off my stage, before i grab ya neck and handle ya
    Wet ya like punani, then dry you like canada
    Shaheed muhammad's on the gemini mixer
    Peace to derrick coleman, mad max and the sixers
    I'm cappin hard cuz i got this rap shit sold
    >from linden boulevard down to cascade road
    You know my steez, i treat hip hop like a sport
    Holdin down fort up on martinique court like...

    Q-tip:
    (where ya at?) we seein life for what it is
    (where ya at?) we get this money for these kids
    (where ya at?) we bout to build the foundation
    (where ya at?) we gonna start the zulu nation
    (where ya at?) come on, come on
    (where ya at?) we gonna put it all together
    (where ya at?) no matter what the hell the weather
    (where ya at?)

    Uh, uh, mind power (5x)
    Uh, uh, kickin willie is good, all throughout your whole hood
    But we gotta start with the spirit first y'all
    Mind power
