Speed

Life have a **** hustling man

Ya need to slow it down, yo

Sit back just chill just relax

Speeding down the roads of life

Yo, check it

Another day to face, I'm share cropping in the paper chase

Take a deep breath and clear my database

It's afternoon I'm talking shit to my alarm clock

'Cause I gotta face this world of capitalistic onslaught

Don't stop when I jump in the whip, trying to get it off

Beltline got me rushing like Baryshnikov

Pushing 80 miles an hour to this call center

Trying to pick up a check I only see 20 percent of

Until the weekend, it sounds crazy when I'm saying it

But sleepless nights got me forgetting what day it is

Until my son two days with out speaking, looking for

Reasons to keep my head from going off the deep end

I take this shit personally, I'm making moves

But this treadmill lifestyle ain't working for me

It's from your crib to the lab to your job to make a profit

And at the days end still ain't got nothing accomplished

And it's just the way it's going down, but on the real, yo

I think I need to slow it down, and slow it down, too fast

Too fast for me, j ust too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me, just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me, just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me, just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

This really moving too fast for me, just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me and you

I try to slow it down like Brand Nubian

But hypnotic tunes like this always do me in

Got a **** about to go and burn the road again

From first gear to fifth gear out of control again (Yeah)

And that's the way we rolling in, needed to chill

And take a rest stop 'cause my job got me slaving like I'm Dred Scott

Take a break, nah **** you betta not, cause that's when the respect stops

Energy drain, I need a blast like Hi-Tek got

So I can grab the mic and make your heads bop

With the microphone check, one, two, it don't stop

Out of town on a quick escape

Hoping I have a chance to slow it up and hit the brakes

And slow it down

This joint is going too fast for me (Movin' on now, and movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (We movin' on now, we movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (We movin' on now, we movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (We movin' on now, we movin' on and on)

This really moving too fast for me (We movin' on now, we movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me and you, just too fast for me (Don't stop, now keep it on and on)

I let my life shine in between these papers' lines

I write rhymes to incite minds

Spending time on this pipeline, eighty-five

North it's like mine, going eighty-five to light minds

Going ninety-five to take time

Spending days in the rays of the sunshine

Many days those same rays went undefined

Now forty east is where I go to have my best times

Three lanes going sixty to perfect rhymes

Trade dose and master craft, catch punch lines

We turning into early morning late night times

Amtrak Monday morning to come back rides

Catch a couch on the weekend, a place I rarely did sleep in

Tay car speaker knobs is tweaking

Cause the way we be rocking it when joints is finished

At the speed we be moving we could never be diminished

With my energy replenished write a rhyme with puns

And all my similes intended speed out until I finish

Don't stop now, keep it movin' on

Don't stop now, keep it movin' on

We bang bang, flop, don't stop the rock

Bang bang, flop, real hip hop don't stop now

Keep it movin' now, get it runnin'

This joint is going too fast for me (Don't stop, keep movin')

Just too fast for me (Don't stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me (Don't stop, stop, keep it movin')

Just too fast for me and you (Don't stop, stop, keep it, keep it)

Just too fast for me (Movin' on, and movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (Movin' on now, we movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (Movin' on and on now)

Just too fast for me (We movin' on and on now)

This really moving too fast for me (Movin' on and on)

Just too fast for me (We keep it on and on)

Just too fast for me

Me and you

Me and you
