The Race Is On
[Mos Def]
Yo yo, yo, whassup, yo yo
Yo yo, we gonna, we gonna slow it down
so we can speed it up y'all
Right now I want everybody come to the front
That's right, move forward
I want all the poppers and the breakers, to form this circle
I want all the poppers and the breakers
The writers and the exciters, to get in this circle
and make it real live yo
Cause I'm seein too many stars up in here tonight yo
I'm seein the Rock Steady Crew
I'm seein Ken Swift, I'm seein Mr. Wiggles
I'm seein Modesho, I'm seein Crazy Legs
Man I'm seein the Zulu Nation up in h
Yo yo, yo, whassup, yo yo
Yo yo, we gonna, we gonna slow it down
so we can speed it up y'all
Right now I want everybody come to the front
That's right, move forward
I want all the poppers and the breakers, to form this circle
I want all the poppers and the breakers
The writers and the exciters, to get in this circle
and make it real live yo
Cause I'm seein too many stars up in here tonight yo
I'm seein the Rock Steady Crew
I'm seein Ken Swift, I'm seein Mr. Wiggles
I'm seein Modesho, I'm seein Crazy Legs
Man I'm seein the Zulu Nation up in h
Flight
Daylight is waving goodbye
Darkness is here throwing sand in your eye
What can you do, where can you hide?
I just wonder
Light in your room's turning red
ready to find monsters under your bed
Dreams just fall apart
Chill from the inside is touching your heart
Round and round wind of time's gonna follow you
Round and round stealing year after year
Every night it will overpower you
Every night I face your fear
Build your illusions to last
Mercyless time's gonna turn them to dust
Over the years just look what all of us've done
one to another as God to his son
Thousands of tricks up it's sleave
playing with you like a wind with the leaf
Making you scream every day:
â€ÂTake me down, just take me away!â€Â
