DJ Premier - Flow lyrics

[HOOK: Goapele] Flow (x8) [Verse 1: The Grouch] Straight forward puncher man, I got to get through to you Mix what I do with Zion I is special, and you knew it too Time for your mind Expansion, and we on the grind Answering the question to where the hell am I gonna find Bliss? My soul's music is timeless Keep it close to your heart, it's art at its finest A pint is not enough liquid courage to go around So when I draw from this universe, I put it into the sound Would have been lost, but found myself in the process Of getting up over and over and dealing with God's test You're best to believe my quest to relieve Pain, it still remains But frame by frame we make the sickest scene The most equipped of teams, tower with tall torches Only the weak-hearted wilt like cowards with no voices Of course the choice is yours, pick the lock to open doors Get the crop and go for more because it's pure and Wherever the wind blows, me and my trusted pen go And at the drop of a ten cent coin, I let these men know Get past the windows, the walls, and the fences Let down your guards and come to your senses Let it flow.. [HOOK: Goapele] Flow (x8) [Verse 2: Zion I] I sit back, relax and vocalize my free- Dom cause some tale of emotion locks inside of me I play the lottery of life, run the rule of roulette Pulling the card but it's hard not to sweat Place ya bets You ain't a gambler? well circuit, I'mma handle ya low I got some tools for the small to grow, uh-ayyo I let it flow, I bring it lower than the cold And my ebony soul turning to diamond cause I'm dying to know What is the process? we dropping this Genesis apocalypse, the opposites Can't have light without the dark-ness We're Spartacus, Musab, Django, and Orion I'm before yesterday and tomorrow I'm magnifyin' I'm the lost hope, the love we we're scared of The child in the big green field who wants a hug I'm a natural, black cla**ical, thoughts generate Pressure build, always cut the sk** with some heat And my vertigo halo, sometime you shouldn't say no We clean out the stuff to see, spit the Draino Let's go Eh, eh, eh - let's flow [HOOK: Goapele] Flow (x8) [Verse 3: The Grouch] I seen sideway days With a slight gray haze When the right ways They don't pay But they build personality And character, originality Will carry ya Like a chariot, any area While others stare and laugh, me I'm just preparing that Pa**ion pent to the Point Where one can only dare to act Natural in my presence Cuz we're All of the earth's essence Bring it out from the root, sing it out like some true feelings Uninhibited from the ceiling to the floor And beyond what man's made, cuz I stand for so much more And I plan for that, though, but can't demand for that so When I don't know I let the wind blow [Verse 4: Zion I] I spend my days in a limbo Where the sun is a temple And we all walk around laughing indo It's like a maze what I been through Though it all seemed so simple Hindsight, 20/20, yet it's hard to continue In the now when the style ain't really versatile And you get caught up looking out the window I mean, don't be watching me When you got some place to be s**ing nipple Blink ya own reign cripple So let it flow [HOOK: Goapele] Flow (x8)
