lirik lagu illogic & blockhead - something to talk about (remix 1)
[intro]
yeah, what up? i’m so sick of hip-hop nowadays, man, all these cats talkin’ about how much money they got, the necklaces they rock around they neck, the big houses, ain’t n0body talkin’ about nothin’ that, ya know, means anything, no substance or anything, we gotta get cats to talk about something that means something, right?
[chorus]
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to hold
something tangible that edifies the soul
something to make ‘em move, something to make ‘em think
i just want you to take something with you when you leave
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
you’re gonna leave full if you had doubts
[verse 1]
clean out your eyes and your ears
i’ve tried for some time to relate to my peers
i’ve shed my skin, metamorphosized and shed a few tears
dismantled destinies, melody to gain a few years
i’ve stripped virtue down to its unmentionables
fell asleep on the freeway, got together with love and life for a three-way
i’m tempted to find what makes you tick to predict action
k!lled the noise ‘cause you toys were void of p-ssion
every walk across a burning bridge is once around my block
if i could talk to these kids, i wouldn’t say a whole lot
‘cause in their minds, they know what is and what dies
they see if you’re genuine or if you genuinely lie
it’s obvious a novice only wants direction when he’s lost
but a seasoned warrior seeks guidance before he starts
to avoid the beast, wrong turns and sand traps
rug burns, freudian slips, anthrax and ego trips
experience the catalyst for pet peeves to be leashed
caged, partially fed and never released ’til pleasure’s deceased
i’ll take every measure to beat speech
embody ink ’til everybody’s reached by what i teach
[chorus]
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to hold
something tangible that edifies the soul
something to make ‘em move, something to make ‘em think
i just want you to take something with you when you leave
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
you’re gonna leave full if you had doubts
[verse 2]
hold my hand, the promised land’s just over the cliff
follow me to the edge, take a dive if you wish
make some ripples in the lake, disturb the landscape
go all out, put extra syrup on your pancakes
see, everything is everything and nothing’s still something
decorate [?], pleasure in dysfunction
the union you’re carrying negates the punch-in
so the timecard you’re burying displays your independence
listen, the difference between an activist and politician:
one has action with conviction, the latter’s just bullsh-ttin’
you make the choice on how to use your voice, c’mon
say something when you speak, don’t just make noise because
noise can be silenced, substance is infectious
noise brings violence, substance resurrects us
watch your step, check your soul ‘cause something stinks
and it ain’t your breath, i saw you brush your t–th
see you’re all tv and cigarettes ’til you p-ss out
elevator music and drug addiction made you lash out
it seems you need a stand-in to stand out
you came starving, you’re gonna leave full if you had doubts
[chorus]
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to hold
something tangible that edifies the soul
something to make ‘em move, something to make ‘em think
i just want you to take something with you when you leave
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
you’re gonna leave full if you had doubts
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
let’s give ’em something to chew on, something to talk about
let’s give ‘em something to chew on, something to talk about
something to chew on, something to talk about
