Drifting by(just)totally      Q-Tip:   The deadly venom, let me start from the beginning   We always hittin, so yo, there'll be no extra innings   As I send the mic out the park like Reggie Jackson   You be the minor leaguer who sees no action   The coming attraction(what!)   The main feature   And I'm a greet ya, like a rhymin ass creature   Lurking all up in the dark, unknown parts   The brotha well prepared is the brotha who will start   And that's me Aqui, as long as the ladies move they bodies   We'll have a forum to stand   Cuz that happens to be the nature of man   Sexuality, it is the format baby   Ain't no ifs, no buts, no ands, or maybes   But I praise Lord in the worlds that's unseen   Respect me for that and let me do my thing(just)   I said, respect me for that and let me do my thing      Chorus:   (Drifting by)You know we gotta get a hold   (suddenly) Over the illest drum rolls   (suddenly drifting by just...)      Yo, how you doin? Let me give you an intro   My name's the Abstract, now let me give you some info    Got the diamond in the back, and the sunroof shit   That makes the hardcore MCs resort to being bitch   And I don't give a shit about being wild rich   Just make me comfortable and I'll deal with it   Your lust for the riches make a nigga feel sick   Down to his zealots, upchuck and then spit   Denouncin my beliefs, well then your wig get split   Lay your ego on the ground so that you'll benefit   You can take these words and relay it to your click   Take some time for your mind and get off them head trips   Don't try to play me, see my name's not dick   The Tribe is the crew that makes your mics get lit   Like the Fourth of July on some firework shit   My record company be on some true jerk shit   But that's i-ight. Now, I'm on some true work shit   And I'ma make it happen for my whole outfit      Chorus:   (Drifting by)You know we got to get control   (suddenly)Over the illest drum rolls   (suddenly drifting by just...)Third verse      A-yo, we just gettin started   Got to redirect this vision   Got the beauty of a flower   Plus dimensions like a prism    Your minds are locked down like prison   Y'all really need to go lay down   Cuz positivity has risen   We hittin   Yo bust how we too strong to be broken   Occasional malfunction pressure time   We ain't jokin   For security we on this run like Logan   Kamaal's doin the hustle   And you backstage voguin   We all got flaws   Don't ever try to think that you perfect   We all are human beings    There's bullshit at the surface    Sometimes, I mean we rhyme    Damn, we ain't prophets   And if you think so, you need to stop it   So jump back inside your shell   Let your million dollar thoughts propel   But next man don't get jel   Playa hate that all carries weight    That we don't need   We slim with disabilities and   Thick with possibilities   Cuz then you can't move with agility   Navigatin with good visibility   We put these tunes out in record shop facilities   Let's strive to get this constant money activity   We try to stay on the scene like Fidel   So if you get enraged with these names it still rebels   There ain't no plan B's    Yo watch, we movin through with plan A   Money market doin things the right way      Chorus:   (suddenly)You know we got to get control   (Drifting by, just)Over the illest drum roll   (suddenly drifting by just...)(x3)   (suddenly just(x2), Drifting by(x2) in background)    Yo bust it out section, section.   Section Linden Boulevard   Section on Merrick   Section the whole Jamaica   Section on Flushing   Section in Bed-Stiduy
