[Guru]
Niggaz gotta know we ve puttin it down
This shit is certified right here (whoo yes, yes)
No games with this right here
Straight to the di-dome, like this (uhh, uhh)
[Chorus: Bilal]
This right here, has been cer-ti-fied,
for years.. ahhhahhh-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah
He s got soul up in his blueprint, and he s ready to vocalize
So we, passin the mic your way, come on testify..
[Guru]
Prepare each element with raw street intelligence
Dig the soul this is, complete elegance
Heartbeat delegates when I spit each melon s hit
Like to build ill like, repeat felons get
Plus I m jazzy and like to dress to impress
It s the baldhead buddha, with the mic caress
And I might suggest, that you broaden your mind
You spend a lot of your time dancin to fraudulent rhymes
Like a breath of fresh air we gonna, change the pace
Not a mental slave, so save the angry face
It s the return of the mellow voiced maestro, and my flow
eliminates the comp like Geico,
Insurance - just for your body s endurance
You get more for your money, or your partyin purest
So don t start to get nervous now that we up in the spot
We ve been certified for years, you gonna love it a lot
[Chorus]
[Jay Dee]
Who, me? That nigga Jay, Dee (Jay Dee)
Some plod to beats that I, flow to
Run men through, with Gu-ru (Guru)
As for me, I be the nigga that s tight
you got to seeeeeeee
in order for you, to believeeeeeee
Singin these words, with easeeeee
Talkin bout, boom - a-shaka-laka
-a-laka-laka-BOOM!
Roll the weed and lose the seeds asshole
You can breathe three-hundred-and-sixty degrees
of HEAT, sing with the soul
Straight from the streets, of Illadelph
Move your feet - ahh-HAH, pimp shit
(It s that pimp shit) Big whips with full clips
Got mad chicks, on my dick
ridin by, so say it loud, in your face!
[Chorus]
[Guru]
Soulful
Tinted window whips, lots of chicks lots of chips
Anything ain t right then the brother s gotta flip
or skinnydip, after a sip of Cognac rap
Any wack wimp with whiskers, I bomb that cat
Alarm that cat, that when we slide through abide to
the rules that s been laid down by (?) true like bibles
I m liable, to come through, seven deep with Wizzies
and ditch em while other ladies whisper, who is he?
Then later leave with eight new ones, me an airtight Willie
Bout to smack you silly with two guns
So hereby I certify don t care if you feel hurt if I
testify, against your false words or lies
Word to God this is my job I m workin hard every minute
Movin up in the rat race, city council to senate
So what you don t get it? You can t front no more
Been certified for years, can t speak to chumps no more
[Chorus 2X]
[Guru over 2nd repeat]
This one right here

Soul up in his blueprint, ready to vocalize
Pass the mic this way, testify
Hmm, like they say it doesn t hurt to try

Tekst :
Es war nicht immer nur leicht
Es war nicht immer nur schön
Es war nicht immer so einfach
Nur das Gute zu sehn
Wir haben uns so oft belogen
Wir haben es so oft versucht
Wenn du dich mal verlorn hast
Dann hab ich dich gesucht
Dann hab ich dich gesucht
Du warst das Größte an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Du warst das gute Gefühl
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Du warst das Grösste an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Du warst das gute Gefühl
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Ich reiß die Fotos heraus
Ich nehm dein Bild von der Wand
Ich überspiel unsre Lieder
Hab deine Briefe verbrannt
Ich kann dich nicht mehr vergessen
Ich krieg die Bilder nicht raus
Ich versuch dich zu löschen
Doch dein Licht geht nicht aus
Doch dein Licht geht nicht aus
Du warst das Größte an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Du warst das gute Gefühl
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Du warst das Größte an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Das beste am Leben
Dieser Tag hat keinen Namen
Diese Nacht hat kein Gesicht
Dieses Leben macht keinen Sinn mehr
Denn ich schaffs nicht ohne dich
Dieser Tag hat keinen Namen
Diese Nacht hat kein Gesicht
Ich schaffs nicht ohne dich
Du warst das Größte an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Du warst das gute Gefühl
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Du warst das Größte an mir
Du warst das Beste am Leben
Du warst das gute Gefühl
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Für das es sich lohnt zu leben
Tekst :
I m leaving my home in Europe behind
Heading out for a new state of mind
New York town is calling to me
Dollar an hour from the company
Warren Gameliel Harding
Alone in the White House, watching the sun
Come up on the morning of 1921
I just want someone to talk to
To talk to
To talk to
I ve got no shoes upon my feet
I ve been all day with nothing to eat
It sure gets hard down here in the street
But I know where I m going to be
Warren Gameliel Harding
Playing cards in a smoke-filled room
Winning and losing, filling the time
I just want someone to talk to
To talk to
To talk to
Don t go down to the docks tonight
The cops are nosing around for the site
We moved the booze just before daylight
They won t find it now, it ll be alright
Warren Gameliel Harding
In Alaska running out of days
Leaving the ladies, God moves in strange ways
I just want someone to talk to
To talk to
To talk to
Don t leave me here on such a lonely day...
Don t leave me here on such a lonely day...
