Black Thought - Clean Up lyrics

[Intro]: Now this is the real thing. We found a groove. Ha. We move each other [Verse One: Saukrates]: I don't wanna leave you on the sidelines dude The clock is ticking get your mind right dude Rememberin' the days when I was like you Why I ain't end up in the pine box? True What goes up, must come down So when you sittin' at the top, you won one round Now here comes one generation that's so profound You ain't never heard the word "a**a**ination" so pronounced Like ?? through the repercussion of winnin' while you sinnin' The nation stay huntin' for you [Hook: Saukrates] And I don't mean to break the news to you n***as But the crabs in the buckets are true As true as a bullet, easy as a trigger pull it I'm sure you'll do what's best for you So clean up, don't ease up I know you'll do what's best for you [Verse Two: Black Thought] The conflict is crucial The drama is just futile Hush Kinda make you wanna wonder what to do you know it must Get a little easier on some ooh child trust People cut throat this is the new style I know you're man just pa**ed but this too shall Just keep those crabs out of where you lay your roots down They in the bucket tryin' to make they splash And take more each figure, f** it they gon' take they cash Cause it's like, I gotta get it, gots gots to get it Especially in a city where cops not permitted So box lock your digits I hate to be the one to break the news to you but sh**'s hot Watch them n***as A few is gonna flat out, walk up and say "f** you" Others is gonna play it like, "Aye, what you been up to?" Knowing they want to get somebody to touch you I know regardless you gon' do what you must do For you [Hook] [Outro] Me? I ain't high. You know why? Cause I can't truly be high unless all my motherf**in' friends is high. I look around. I see my friends. Do you know what I feel like doing? (What you feel like doing?) I feel like sharing my sh**
