The Roots - What You Want (Featuring Jaguar) lyrics

Here's what you want right, here's what you need right We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for So it's a secret that's been pent up inside for years Exclusive type, only for your eyes and ears You held it in for so long, you busted into tears The letters spilled slowly across the page like a world premiere Well I ain't, the bullsh** begins here The obvious cause, the effects is unclear The punishment for crimes of the heart could be severe Though to keep it on the low is a heavy cross to bear You deep now, submerged with no signs of air Still your sunken heart thumpin' like the kick in a snare While on the surface it's all turnin' to a circus That's why you're nervous, and you got a right to be 'Cause if somebody woulda done that sh** to me I mean my best man hittin' my wife to be My sentiments exactly would be history Y'know what I'm sayin' my peoples in the place, let's hit it off, one two Here's what you want right, here's what you need right We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] Yo, it's like nothin' changed, it's all the same thang The same characters in a book, with different names It's a lot more to lose than you got to gain You a lot more confused than hip to the game The peep the script of the game the price is pain Men and women get into things, now who's to blame? When everybody whisperin' 'bout whatever took place And how the fact twist a knot with a straight face And lies, hard to swallow from the bitter taste Well that's a point in the past that can't be erased So motivate, though it's hard to let it ride Or set aside true feelings, underhand dealings Our lost trust, I wonder if we lost us It's bigger than me and you, it's monstrous So I'ma, just calm down and try to relax Before I clap [Incomprehensible] Here's what you want right, here's what you need right We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] If you could only flash back and undo our actions Change what happens, dissect the fractions A time to rewind and be recorded absent For real 'cause these memories is photographic p**nographic, pushing me close to madness Head heavy like I'm trippin' on acid tablets Yesterday as I recall was all fabulous I thought so But now it feel like shots hittin' my torso Spent a lotta time and trust in the wrong place Fought a lotta fights rollin' with the wrong ace Love, stronger than pride, we could end disgrace I need, room the think, and space to ventilate Was solid as a rock, shall not disintegrate Thoughts racing like the lunatics on the interstate For real, ya, it's ill, ya, my peoples in the place I got to go Here's what you want right, here's what you need right We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible] Here's what you want right, here's what you need right We got to give you more of what you're lookin' for [Incomprehensible] [Incomprehensible]
