Yeah It’s like rolling in a Bronco pumpin’ them pumps U know what I’m sayin’? On Broadway or somethin’, U know what I’m sayin’? Yo yo, straight up Yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey yo, call the paddywagon, I’ve seen a black boy cash stackin’ Smirk on my face screamin’, “Fuck the Grand Dragon” 4 the fast cash, we be thinkin’ 2 slow Clownin’ each others on the damn talk shows I don’t wanna house but I gotta stick and rob I got a disease, it’s called “Can’t find a job” Smokin’ on the herbs help me see a little better Lookin’ 4 a job in this cold ass weather
Watch out, I’m tryin’ 2 get my shit 2gether (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Yeah – da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) (Gotta keep it goin’, gotta keep it goin’) It’s been kinda lonely (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da) (Gotta keep it goin’, gotta keep it goin’)
Hey yo, as soon as I come home, I’m stressed by my mama Questionin’ my whereabouts like I’m the Unabomber Question mark, comma, freeze all the drama Intensive care flows 4 all U hos smacked with trauma As I sit back with my blunt and gin Grab a pen, write a song about a million black men Tryin’ 2 blame all this violence on gangs What about those fools who kill 4 nothin’ and hijack planes? (Let me hear U…)
Get your shit 2gether (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) (Gotta keep it goin’, gotta keep it goin’) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da) (Gotta keep it goin’, gotta keep it goin’)
Yo, I’m goin’ 4 the gold like a olympic sprinter Fuck the bullshit, steaks 4 dinner this winter Yo, I’ve seen a murder scene that left a fool scarred Plus I saw a prisonyard way before a schoolyard Time’s rough plus time’s runnin’ out My mom said if I trip one more time, I’m gettin’ kicked out And I ain’t tryin’ 2 make excuses But lookin’ 4 a job in the ghetto is fuckin’ useless (Let me hear U sing)
Get your shit 2gether, straight up (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Yeah, uh – da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) (Let me hear U sing) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) Da, da, da, da (Da, da, da, da, da, da)
Ask yourself your destination What the source of your inspiration be And U will find a spirit tryin’ 2 get back 2 the mind How U was in your mama’s belly Live and let live was the order of the day What U say? Loving one another is the only way!
Da, da, da, da, da, da, da If U believe in one thing, if U believe in 2 things (Da, da, da, da, da, da, da) If U believe in anything then let me hear U sing “Da, da, da, da, da, da, da” Keep on believin’ (Da, da, da, da, da, da) Lord
(Yeah y’all, it’s like that y’all, it’s like “Bet Your Life”) (Yeah y’all) (Come on) (Yeah y’all) {x2} (It’s like “Bet Your Life”) (Yeah y’all, it’s like “Bet Your Life”) {x3} (Yeah) | Check out more Lyrics from Prince. Write a comment and let everybody know what you think this song is about!
