Suspended in Time

[Verse 1: Lil Dap] Son started in Brooklyn and you all know that I call you son for a reason That means nothing can come between us When we walk this beat, lyrics do get deep Because we're born to die, shed tears and cry Mom dukes passed away when you was locked up, son They had you, suspended in time, so I kick rhymes Niggas livin' off your fears and ideas to get paid Brothas maintain your balance and protect your wealth And these punk style niggas screamin' out for help And there's nothin' in the world better than life itself [Verse 2: Melachi] Young fools break rules, mic tools got me open I'm smokin', leavin' all the punk rappers broken No jokin', hoping for the best East to west, I'm like a killer, puttin' rappers in their rest 'Cause there's no tricks, when I let off clips I leave bodies in ditches, play bitch niggas like bitches Nutcracker doin' hits by the dozen When I make moves, I ride the train with my cousin Nowhere near simple My mental, flex more complex than Mozart's instrumental From my temple, comes a bad sign And if you're doin' that, you're suspended in time [Hook: DJ Premier scratches] Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt [Verse 3: Lil Dap] Yo son, I think about my soul, 'cause your shell is just a frame Only used for money, hustlin', and playin the game I want my chance to live long, what, like Marvin Gaye I may be dead and gone, but my word will be born This is for my niggas and chicks who live in the ghetto We'll walk the...streets of gold, diamond, pearls, and girls And there's nothin' better than this, 'cause we're in the new world Seeing people everywhere that I thought I saw before Check it out, party people, as we reign supreme Yo, the Group Home manifest and got mad love for the team [Verse 4: Melachi] I know that it's tough comin' up in the streets You will be strong because you can't be weak You gotta put your mind on achieve mode Go for your goals, boom boom, explode Everybody's in the way, but they can't hold you back That's how it is and we do it like that Yeah...so...show 'em what you got No time for fakin' moves, the time is wastin' on the clock You know how I rock, I rock non-stop Hop on stage, you jump on my jock Here's a dope rhyme, one time for your mind If you're deaf, dumb, and blind, you're suspended in time [Hook: DJ Premier scratches] Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk The crew bringin' the ruckus no doubt Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk (Repeat 4X) [Outro Interlude: Jeru The Damaja] Aiyyo, Mal... Dap... That shit I was telling you about... is mad real You know 'Ru, I ain't gonna lie to you I'll let you come to my rest and peep the manuscripts But in the meantime, remember: Be just in all your dealings Pay attention, and be alert Treat others with the same respect that you yourself are entitled to Be careful that no man deceive you, for they will try and deceive you Soon, you won't be able to say anything at all So when you have the voice to say something – say something 'Cause this is for the seeds It's all for the seeds Remember – the seeds is what grow into the flowers The flowers is what give us oxygen So, shine light and water the seeds This is just a few thoughts for your mind Peeeeace
