U Do

We can't wait, no

For the dawning of another day, yeah

It's so beautiful, the things U do

Things U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do

What U do to me

What U do

It's so incredible, the things U do

Things U do me

Things U do

Everything, it's just what U do

What U do to me

What U do (U do)

It's so incredible, what U do

The powers you hold

The things you've been through in life

And it ain't no elementary thing

Gotta over-stand why we representing and sharin'

Because you got a lesson to bring

I listen and care

'Cause I know the message and dreams is written between lines

I can't see on the daily

An appreciation for vibes, I give intimate rhymes

Feel free to take them

I love your patience 'cause maybe time is made for waitin'

Who knows?

But you know

The crew holds our heart and souls

And might tight gripes like judo

Feels so real

My mind

Won't let it go

So I gotta let you know

It's so beautiful, the things U do (U do)

Things U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do

What U do to me

What U do

It's so incredible, the things U do (U do)

Things U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do (U do)

What U do to me

What U do (U do)

So many things

So many plays

Mind has seen

So much life

We change our lives constantly

Learnin' what we gotta be (What we gotta be)

Know it's lovely, what we have today

But realize

It could be gone tomorrow

You and I

We got that love, no sorrow

Don't deny

What we have is real life

I know

That we have higher meanings and connections

I know

That we are gonna change the world together

You and I

Got what it takes for love (For love)

I said

You and I

Have every little thing that you think we would need

Right here (Right here)

Right here

It's right here (Right here)

Right here

Open your

Open your

Heart and your mind will follow

It's so beautiful, the things U do (U do)

Things U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do (U do)

What U do to me

What U do

It's so incredible, the things U do (U do)

Things U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do (U do)

What U do to me

Things U do (U do)

Everything, it's just what U do (U do)

What U do to me

What U do

So it's like

It's like late '80s, early '90s, right?

I'm livin' like, in the LA area

California

I'm takin' the bus out to Hollywood

And I'm listenin'

To, I think it was, it's probably Digable Planets, or something like that

Now, I had already known, you known, the whole, like, Jazz

You know, cats been samplin' jazz music and all that with hip-hop, but

It never really, really, really hit me

Until I heard this one song

I think it was, it was a Donald Byrd sample

And I knew it was Donald Byrd 'cause my pops used to play that record

All the, all the time growin' up

And it really, really connected

Like, when I heard the sample in a song

And I knew the original song

It wasn't like, you know, it wasn't like cats was diggin' the fine breaks

And bein' like, oh, this is where it came from

It was just somethin' I already, already knew

Man, and when it hit me like that

It was like

It was like, on

You know what I mean?

'Cause after then, it was just like

My dad's records were my records

I was just stealin' 'em

Straight up

You know, just tryin' to sample and tryin' to hear new, new ways to incorporate

Yeah, man

Jazz
