on the strength
doug e. fresh
what up hops? time to get paid again
you should have stayed and when
i told you i'll be back in full color
look at yourself ummm wella
is what you said as you bop your head
to a new groove that improves that movement
don't worry there's no way i'm losin'
it's down pat like paint and shellack
i'm wearing timberlands roof of the world full length
and i'm kickin' it on the strength
straight across the counter
exhibit spirit i share it
the laws a jah me father and i live it
rules from a man with understanding
sing and bring souls ring about everything
rhyming all about yourself it outdated
for something dope and def and innovating
from me you see it's not easy to be
the last lion from mount zion
never give up i just keep on tryin'
free as a bird now the world is safe
and i'm stone cold kickin it
straight across the counter
they know i'm not playin'
you know what i'm sayin'?
or force do anybody got strenght? of course!
i'm gettin hoarse cause it's pumpin like the feds
from each and every corner people boppin' their heads
you're afro-american so won't you stop rushin'
trustin' what's in store for sure
as you and yours fill all dance floors
cause when get fresh rain
or work on an encore while we're on tour
or like i said to you once before
wearin' timberlands roof of the world
and i'm stone cold kickin' it
