Somethin That Means Somethin

The Pharcyde


I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 
somethin that means somethin 
somethin that means somethin 
I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 

(Romye) 
Wasn't a black prophet wasn't in it for the profit 
had a talk with Charlie Brown he was like "yo man get off it" 
It's a business 
the record companies are quick to end the fantasy 
your trapped in and he tapped in my frequency 
now I'm frequently going 
over such and such ends that such and such owes 
It's later for the fly girls and hoes 
cause in this capitalistic society money is all 
fuck continuing college, I was too small to play ball 
so I grabbed the MIC device never thought about it twice 
If you think this is a game nigga you better think twice... 

I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 
somethin 
somethin that means somethin 
somethin that means somethin 

(Tre) 
Time is just a faze and 
life is just a riddle like 
if you build a twinkie there's 
a man in the middle with a 
chick on the side that's along 
for the fun so I see 
her as a stallion and I 
ride everyone, ban together 
if your in the same level 
most of us are free based 
on bring rebels fightin causes 
against the devil in the 
heart of round meadows either 
verbally or with the silhouettes 
eyes cold as dark parks or 
steel metal the world is never 
settle cause it rotates like 
ho cakes under glass, it's all 
about ya future yet it's all 
about ya past like how many 
faces did ya mold in ya mask 
before your free at last 
eye ask, to be or not 
people like ta see ya rot and die 

somethin that means somethin 
I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 
somethin 
somethin that means somethin 

(Fatlip) 
I'm the "F" the "A" the "T" the "L" the "I" the "P" 
and everything I say be either fat or fly 
You best believe I put in time to conceive 
Deep concentration from sunrise to eve 
and even in my sleep sometimes 
rhymes formulate 
free form, lyrical storms falling 
from a cloudy brain 
in my dream like state 
Then I awake 
to make these silly saps collapse 
as I dilapidate the wack 
When it comes to rhymes I'm kind of like a mack 
I got these flows strollin up and down the track 
so the dough I stack up in piles and piles 
For my lyrical creation 
travel miles and miles 
to reach my destination 
Been through so many trials 
and many tribulations 
but I do this shit, I do this shit, I do this shit 
for the people of my nation 

I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 
somethin that means somethin 
I gotta kick somethin that means somethin 
somethin that means somethin
