Talib Kweli - Prime Example lyrics

*Yeah* *Talib Kweli* *Black Star* *Reflection Eternal* [Hook: repeat 2X] I am what you want to be but you can't though Prime example You cats can't flow but you get an "E" for effort [From mah say till efforts we stay?] together reign forever [Talib Kweli] Please You think I give a f** about your Clown Posse? You insane! You acting like a journalist and racking my brain Since I was tagging my name on the back of the train Like my man in [Lahane?] packing the same Little Gat that put me back in the frame of mind to say "f** the Five-O" Let me explain the rhyme Yo, cut the nice flow like Bob Marley I'm the black star they probably follow my every move Like I'm the son of John Gotti Escape to Paris like a jazz man round midnight [Queen?] banging like Josephine Baker raising the kids right Attack the dreaming Rap through the demons See the situation and extract the meaning Internationally known trees actually grown Through the cracks in the sidewalk See it in my walk Hear it in my talk Bet you cats feel it in my rap flow You can throw me a spliff but you can keep your tobacco [Hook] [Talib Kweli] Are y'all with me tonight? Et vou avec moi? Y'all love the children and dance like a [labor?] Say Ma where you goin with that flavor These cats ain't in my league, this here is major Mind state of the art Yeah I play my part with razor-sharp words Shot straight for the heart Beautiful like chords played on a harp with trumpets blaring Angels preparing for the fate we all sharing at One time or another through sunshine or thunder Ain't got no time for the blunders Then bond with one another to make the cla**ical track *What?* The battery in my back I'm Eveready already plus magical [adapt?] Like mushrooms from the plush womb of the sweet The city workers pushing dust brooms in the street We complete the cipher Push up your lighter Throw your vanity in the bonfire *word* [Hook] - 3X
