Get A Hold - A Tribe Called Quest

Drifting drifting drifting drifting drifting

Drifting drifting drifting drifting by totally

Drifting by just totally

Drifting by just totally

The deadly venom let me start from the beginning

We always hittin so yo there'll be no extra innings

As I send the mic out the park like Reggie Jackson

You be the minor leaguer who sees no action

The coming attraction what

The main feature

And I'ma greet ya like a rhymin a*s creature

Lurking all up in the dark unknown parts

The brotha well prepared is the brotha who will start

And that's me akki as long as the ladies move they bodies

Well have a four on two stand

'Cuz that happens to be the nature of man

Sexuality it is the format baby

Ain't no ifs no buts no ands or maybes

But I praise Lord in the worlds thats unseen

Respect me for that and let me do my thing

I said respect me for that and let me do my thing

Drifting by you know we gotta get a hold

Over the illest drum rolls

Totally drifting by just

Yo how you doin let me give you an intro

My names the abstract now let me give you some info

Got the diamond in the back and the sunroof s**t

That makes the hardcore M C S resort to being b***h

And I don't give a s**t about being wild rich

Just make me comfortable and I'll deal with it

Your lust for the riches make a n***a feel sick

Down to his zealots upchuck and then spit

Denouncin my beliefs well then your wig get split

Lay your ego on the ground so that you'll benefit

You can take these words and relay it to your click

Take some time for your mind and get off them head trips

Don't try and play me see my name not dick

The tribe is the crew that makes your mics get lit

Like the fourth of July on some firework s**t

My record company be on some true jerk s**t

But thats I ight now I'm on some true work s**t

And I'ma make it happen for my whole outfit

Drifting by you know we got to get control

Over the illest drum rolls

Totally drifting by just

A yo we just gettin started

Got to redirect this vision

Got the beauty of a flower

Plus dimensions like a prism

Your minds are locked down like prison

Yall really need to go lay down

'Cuz positivity has risen

We hittin

Yo bust how we too strong to be broken

Occasional malfunction pressure time

We ain't jokin'

For security we on this run like Logan

Kamaals doin the hustle

And you backstage voguin

We all got flaws

Don't ever try to think that you perfect

We all are human beings

Theres bulls**t at the surface

Sometimes I mean we rhyme

D**n we ain't prophets

And if you think so you need to stop it

So jump back inside your shell

Let your million dollar thoughts propel

But next man don't get jel

Playa hate that all carries weight

That we don't need

We slim with disabilities and

Thick with possibilities

'Cuz then you can't move with fertility

Navigatin with good visibility

We put these tunes out in record shop facilities

Let's strive to get this constant money activity

We try to stay on the scene like fidel

So if you get enraged with these names it still rebels

There ain't no plan bees

Yo watch we movin through with plan A

Money market doin things the right way

Totally you know we got to get control

Over the illest drum roll

Totally drifting by just

Totally drifting by just

Totally drifting by just

Totally just

Totally just

Totally just
