Hedrush - “Be Healthy” Dead Prez lyrics

It's all love [Verse 1: stic.man] I don't eat no meat, no dairy, no sweets Only ripe vegetables, fresh fruit and whole wheat I'm from the old school, my household smell like soul food, bro Curried falafel, barbecued tofu No fish though, no candy bars, no cigarettes Only ganja and fresh-squeezed juice from oranges Exercising daily to stay healthy And I rarely drink water out the tap, cause it's filthy [M1] Lentil soup is mental fruit And ginger root is good for the yout' Fresh veg-e-table with dem ital stew Sweet yam fries with the green calalloo Careful how you season and prepare your foods Cause you don't wanna lose vitamins and miner-ules And that's the j**el Life brings life, it's valuable So I eat what comes from the ground, it's natural Let your food be your medicine (uh huh) No Excederin (uh uh) Strictly herb, generate in the sun, cause I got melanin And drink water, eight gla**es a day Cause that's what they say [Hook: stic.man] They say you are what you eat, so I strive to be healthy My goal in life is not to be rich or wealthy Cause true wealth comes from good health, and wise ways We got to start taking better care of ourselves They say you are what you eat, so I strive to be healthy My goal in life is not to be rich or wealthy Cause true wealth comes from good health, and wise ways We got to start taking better care of ourselves, be Healthy y'all Yeah, yeah, yeah, hold the f** up, yo We'll take this little intermission, listen what the f** we gotta say, y'know?
