Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Yes, welcome to the wonderful sounds of Talib Kweli
[Verse 2]
Ladies...
[Verse 3]
I got you in the mood, for an interlude
Raw like in the nude, I hope this ain't considered rude
But let's stop talking, cause it's feeling like an interview
I know into me, so, let me get into you
I'm always in the mood for laughing and lovin' and rapping and (Ooh)
And passin' the dutch and relaxing and puffin' and hitting the duckin'
The rippin' production, these kittens ain't muffins
Just because we stuff 'em in the oven
[Verse 4]
My words drippin' off the tongue like the wax from a candle wick
Ill the way I lay down the rap, they can't handle it
Cats all sappy like a romantic flicks, dude, get a clue
Like Colonel Mustard in the study with a candlestick
They holdin' hands with these dudes like they going steady
But, one glimpse and I know they ready, you already know
Slipped her a note like, you ready to go?
We make a getaway plan and we head for the do'
[Verse 5]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
[Verse 6]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
[Verse 7]
You messin' up my mo', my whole mood, told y'all, oh
Lose, eat crews like crews like soul-food
The only producer that feel like fuck rappers
Only backpacker with a chip like hackers
Only Michael Richardson, only much blacker
So If he say ****, then I'ma say
Is this the Ritz? Carlton? Dress like, fresh, like, just like
I'm the shit
[Verse 8]
Unh, you ain't figured out what I'm about yet
Always rocking that this ain't out yet
But this ain't 'bout that
From a city where **** plug like outlets
Far as music go yo, it ain't no outlets, so
When I go out, **** always out to get me in the studio
And I ain't in the mood to flow
I'm with my girl and I'm trying to hit the movies yo
And they tryna act stupid, oh
[Verse 9]
In the club with Silicone Suzie
What happened to real girls like Rudy?
With real titties like Tooty
This girl got a silicone booty
And got the nerve to act moody
Now I ain't tryin' to judge like Judy
But **** you a man, you can't fool me
Act like Fifty, throw her in a pool G
[Verse 10]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move the the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
[Verse 11]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move the the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
[Verse 12]
Break it down
[Verse 13]
Bringing the drum, keep it funky like a stink in a slum
'Cause see they wanna breed cursin' for the things that don't come
The speakers wrong that we rap dudes speakin' in tongues
Christmas time choice for what? No we keeping our guns
Smokin' a piff to cause a leak in your lungs
You ain't got shit to do like Friday when the weekend begun
Completely done with rap dudes don't compete with the dumb
I spill my blood for the people, see how deep it can run?
[Verse 14]
I'm in the mood like Dante and Main Flow
Never coming with the same flow, got it's change yo
It's strange yo, to make yo chain glow, that's yo main goal
That's a facade like I'm somewhere over the rainbow
Really these cats sweeter than mangoes, Mr. Bonjangles-ass dudes
Dancing around the club doing the tango
Go hard like Iverson playing with hurt ankles
Plus wrestle the topic from a different Kurt Angle
[Verse 15]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move the the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
[Verse 16]
I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move the the stars
Navigate through the truly bizarre
Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life
And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight
