Evidence - E.A.T. lyrics

[Intro] Premier, DJ Premier Premier, DJ Premier Gotta get it played now Masta Ace (Gotta get it played now) One, two (Gotta get it played now) About time (Gotta get it played now) You into this? (Gotta get it played now) [Verse 1: Masta Ace] Understand man, I gotta eat It's that educated Brownsville brother with a lotta street Me and Preem, that's a lotta heat I gotta speak all this truth into the world but it's not a Tweet Unlimited wordplay in the worst way Fire like going to work late on the first day I'm in the field where the hurts lay And going hard 'til I'm all the way up where the birds play Flyin' higher than the eagle 'til I feed my people This is only part one, you gon' need a sequel You gon' need another episode Elevate your thought, get your brains in the weapon smoke You gotta break bread at the right table Be on the right team like Mike Vrabel On battle nights via satellite Stupid motherf**ers saying that they like cable My mic cable never tangles It's a view to a k** from some better angles My conscience speaks nonsense You that dude from the 'ville, don't let them change you But understand, man, I gotta evolve and transcend So my problems are probably solved And when it's solved, I'll be back soon This sh** is hard like plain black moon in the backroom [Chorus: Masta Ace] (Premier, Premier, Premier) Goin' all around the world, man, you gonna eat (Premier, Premier, Premier) All this love from the fans that we gonna meet Marco on the board, Preemo on the beat All I'm tryna say is, we gonna eat Yeah, yeah, we gonna eat Understand man, we gonna eat (DJ Premier) [Bridge] Yeah, yeah, we gonna eat Gotta get it played now [Verse 2: Evidence] I don't write until the Beatles say it's meant for me And if it don't happen right for me, it wasn't meant to be Everything eventually, f**ed like a century Goin' huntin' all the animals he sent to me I felt pressure in the places that we're packin' Lookin' back, just a fraction of the places I've seen that raised all my principles Made me to what I am, a [?] is critical I rap original, it's hard to find a box to fit me Tryin' in dark to find lights, that's tricky Like that song from DMC and Reverend Run JMJ, never fade away and never done Never meant to run and hold envious traits Empty your space, that'll be the end to your day I mean, we all need a team (Mic check, one, two) What's the point in havin' dogs not supportin' your dreams I got a lot to see [Chorus: Masta Ace] Goin' all around the world, man, you gonna eat All this love from the fans that we gonna meet Marco on the board, Preemo on the beat All I'm tryna say is that we gonna eat Yeah, yeah, we gonna eat Understand man, we gonna eat (We gotta get it played now) (Premier, Premier, Premier) [Verse 3: Masta Ace] Eyo, we evolve and transcend But always keep it tucked like trans men Everywhere this man's been Fans know, my catalog thicker than Land's End See y'all ain't ready but listenin' heavy (Listen) Y'all hear these cats but y'all wishin' for Eddie Delirious so they distant and petty 'Cause I'm divine, Malcolm X giving kisses to Betty It's for my wife and my daughter as well That's on my life, I ain't goin' to jail I can't be sleepin' on the floor in a cell I'd rather be on a tour with Estelle I evolved, it was mandatory 'Cause I can see that God planned it for me This is me, understand my story Me and Ev over Preem, it's a whole different category [Outro] Gotta get it played now Gotta get it played now Yo! It's Creepy Clown with DJ Premier
