Yes
welcome to
the wonderful sounds
of Talib Kweli
Ladies
I got you in the mood
for an interlude
Raw like in the nude
I hope this ain't
considered rude
But let's stop talkin
'cause it's feelin
like an interview
I know you into me so
let me get into you
I'm always in the mood
for laughin' and lovin'
and rappin'
Passin' the dutch and relaxin'
and puffin' and
hittin' and duckin'
The rippin' production
these kittens ain't muffins
Just because
we stuff 'em in the oven
My words drippin'
off the tongue
like the wax from
a candle wick
It'll the way I lay
down the rap
they can't handle it
Cats all sappy like
romantic flicks dude get a clue
Like Colonel Mustard
in the study with a candlestick
They holdin' hands
with these dudes
like they goin' steady
But one glimpse and
I know they ready
you already know
Slipped her a note like
You ready to go
We make a getaway plan
and we head for the do
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids that stay
true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids
that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
You messin' up my mo'
my whole mood told y'all oh
Lose eat crews
like crews like soulfood
The only producer
that feel like Fuck rappers
Only backpacker
with a chip like hackers
Only Michael Richardson
only much blacker
So if he say n#### then
I'ma say
Is this the Ritz
Carlton Dress like
fresh like just like
I'm the shit
You ain't figured out
what I'm about yet
Always rockin' that
this ain't out yet
But this ain't 'bout that
From a city where
n###### plug like outlets
Far as music go yo
it ain't no outlets so
When I go out n#####
always out to
get me in the studio
And I ain't in
the mood to flow
I'm with my girl
and I'm tryna
hit the movies yo
And they tryna act stupid oh
In the club with
Silicone Suzie
What happened
to real girls like Rudy
With real titties
like Tooty
This girl got
a silicone booty
And got the nerve
to act moody
Now I ain't tryna
judge like Judy
But bitch you a man
you can't fool me
Act like Fifty
throw her in a pool G
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids that stay
true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids
that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
Break it down
Uh
What
Uh ah uh ah ah
Uh ah uh ah ah yeah
Uh ah uh ah ah what
Uh ah uh ah ah what
Uh ah uh oh yeah
Bringin' the drum
keep it funky like
a stink in a slum
'Cause see
they wanna breed
cursin' for the things
that don't come
The speaker's wrong
that we rap
dudes speakin' in tongues
Christmas time
choice for what
No we keepin' our guns
Smokin' a piff to cause
a leak in your lungs
You ain't got shit to do
like Friday when
the weekend begun
Completely done
with rap dudes
don't compete
with the dumb
I spill my blood
for the people
see how deep it can run
I'm in the mood like
Dante and Main Flow
Never comin'
with the same flow
got it's change yo
It's strange yo
to make yo chain glow
that's yo main goal
That's a facade like
I'm somewhere
over the rainbow
Really these cats
sweeter than mangoes
Mr Bonjangles ass dudes
Dancin' around the club
doin' the tango
Go hard like Iverson
playin' with hurt ankles
Plus wrestle the topic
from a different Kurt Angle
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids
that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
I wear the night like a cloak
'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through
the truly bizarre
Who we are who we is
it's the kids
that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right
we gon' do it tonight
