5 Minutes

Yo, check this out

Welcome to the stage where you can feel the heat

From the bodies pressed together just to hear you speak

Yo, I wonder what makes 'em wanna stand in line?

Will they step to the jam and understand the rhyme?

It's almost showtime, well we enter the showcase

And we're eye-to-eye, face-to-face

With my people that be fillin' the place

All listen as the music stars fillin' the space

Once occupied by emptiness, left by anticipation

They out to get inspired, yo, they tired of waitin'

Better start prayin', must be rich reality checks

Like a moment of truth or reality check

Plus it sets the mood, it's easy to forget what is true

If I lose focus for the why and the who

And the where, it's right here right now

The backstage, we hopin' to raise some eyebrows

'Cause hey, we might bow till the lights go down

On the venue, I'm hopin' that they let us continue like, aw, cool

We got more, if they want more to unlock doors

The reason why we came on tour

And once more, I think about the path laid before us

If we want to be prepared we better practice the chorus like

One, two, three, four

Hey, you, out there  (Hey, You)

We're bringin' it live

Are you listenin'? Rise

And tell a friend that we just want to spread love (That's all)

The Procussions came to do it for y'all

I'm sayin'

Hey, you, out there (Hey, You)

We're bringin' it live

Are you listenin'? Rise

Tell a friend that we just want to spread love (That's all)

(What? Nah, no, no, man) (No man)

The Procussions came to do it for y'all

Why? Whose voice overs am I doin'?

No, you're supposed to get Stro's

Yeah, yeah, yeah, chill, chill, we'll get it, we'll get it, man, we'll get it

The stage is set for the proceeding events

Start time's around nine, I guess we'll go around ten

Roll the promos and banner and the merchant for purchase

The first to the venue but the last to get a sound check

Not perfect image for the mast of conversation

If they're packin' the entrance from inauguration to the finish

They're listenin' to the headlinin' act

So the goal is to expand the tension, expand enough for us

We gotta get 'em up and hence we the openin' act

The underdog strugglin' with a mission and humble beginin'

Again rehearsin' the show, reciting each line

Hey, hey, hey, hey, the Procussions, five minutes to showtime

Yo, seven minutes to go, my arms fold, eyes closed

Now we're bordered by the guy at the door

I trust the floor with the sole of my feet

Feelin' grounded indeed, I'm praisin' God for the breath that I breathe

We proceed, enterin' stage right

Only guided by the sound of the kick

Wall bricks and red lights

I'm seein' a small fight in the front row, no blows get thrown

Exchange of words and now it's under control

Clock is tellin' me it's quarter to ten

I'm tellin' J that I'm ready but can't remember how the chorus begins

In my mind I got it almost right

And just then I hear a voice speakin' into the mic

So right about now we got Mr. J, Rez and Maestro

Of The Procussions gettin' ready to come out here and rap for y'all

For real, you need to pack the front because these brothers

(Here we go) Hey, you, out there (Hey, You)

We're bringin' it live

Are you listenin'? Rise

Tell a friend that we just want to spread love (That's all)

The Procussions came to do it for y'all

Sayin', hey, you, out there (Hey, You)

We're bringin' it live

Are you listenin'? Rise

Tell a friend that we just want to spread love (That's all)

The Procussions came to do it for y'all
