Intro/Chorus: (x2)
"Word is bond, we got it goin on
"C'mon throw ya hands in the air
Brand Nubian'll rock to the break of dawn
In the air, in the air
It's like that y'all, ya don't stop
C'mon throw ya hands in the air
Brand Nubian'll rock the sure shot"
In the air, in the air"
Verse One: Lord Jamar, Sadat X
Now let me get a piece of the track, peace to the black
Peeps on the streets with the beats in the jeeps
Comin back in '94 with the raw that's against the law
It's the G-O-D, my delivery is C-O-D
Word is bond and bond is life
We got it goin on tonight, don't nobody wanna fight
They wanna see a tight show where some brothers might go for broke
Utilizing the effects of the smoke
I pull cash to smash to make the blunt last
Fill it with hash til it pa**, don't even ask in a flash
Put that a** in the gra**, flag is half-mast
Somebody must've pa**ed, we're makin your a** drip into the stands
Fold my cash at last, my task to teach the cla**
And receive somethin more than bra** and some gla**
Make a brother work hard, long and fast......
Chorus (x2)
Verse Two: Lord Jamar, Sadat X
Dreadlock, I send a rock from my block
Clock wax like crack, samplin from old stacks
That's where the soul's at, in this whole rap universe
We kick the funky tunes with a burst
Sun, moon and star
Some boom for Jamar
To get me in the flow, now I'm read' to go
Set to show, everybody in the party that we're nice
Wit out sippin on Bacardi and ice
This style flash, Jamar'll be the shining star
No matter who you are, no matter who you are
I'll rape the tape, drive along in interstate
Wit weight, wipe the slate and, mob the gate
And by fakin I'll avoid the court date, no legal aid
Everything's paid, why cause a tyraid
If the money ain't made, talkin millions
But spendin penny's and gettin cheap shoes from Kenny's
Chorus
Verse Three: Lord Jamar, Sadat X
Now let's take time out to say peace to the GODs (PEACE)
Bust how I release cause this beat is hard
We be the squad from raw-taught to rule
Take a thought to the top now I drop the j**el
I push the Cadillac DeVille and still we real
I drive a garbage truck and not give a ........
I need to earn a buck four-a-year
I'm thru with buyin wild gear
Just somethin I can wear, somethin fly when I'm there
Well now we're here to take the gold and the cash for the bill fold
I told their a** to chill and they're still cold
Frozen cause they're not amongst the chosen one
Sun shines like a beacon, similar to how I'm speaking
As I receive the mic for the last time, I clear up your past crime
All felonies can go, as long as you know
Brand Nubian will stand, without the use of a band
We always work with a plan
Chorus (x2)
