[Intro: Erykah Badu]
Oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause they never get live like me
Ooh, oh, it's live like ain't this
Ah, ain't this, oh
[Verse 1: Myth]
Get up out the bed, it's looking like a beautiful day
Put on a classic tape in the cassette deck then press play
Let my mind at ease, better than smoking on trees
Look outside the window, leaves fallin' down
Turnin' brown, hit the ground
Season change, time to rearrange my thoughts
So I can stimulate the brain, gotta maintain
That's how we get down, they crown us kings
Protectin' the queen in this match of wits with the Black fists
I give 'em fits in this immaculate, beautiful movement
Known for craftin' classics, yo my, that's it
Got the speaker box blastin', my love is below
Take these cats to the underground and show 'em a show
We like chillin' with the crowd, gettin' live to this
Pump it up loud, y'all, we can ride to this
Where my fans at, dawg? No denyin' this
SFP in the place to be and that's it
[Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Never get live like us, they
Never get live like us, they
Never get live like us, they
Never get live like this now
[Post-Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (Uh, down to this, say)
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (By the sound of this, say)
[Verse 2: S1]
It's like a brother stuck up in the matrix
Dealing with hatred on another level, gotta make it
Pastor was telling me, "Give it to God, no need to face it" -- maybe
It's like the pressure got me going crazy -- never
So all my peoples gotta stick together -- do that
We stepping up on the scene just like you knew that -- for sure
We with Badu and she gon' let it blow -- that's right
It's been a long time coming, a hundred-plus miles and running
We giving up facts but they still making assumptions
I was wondering, can I clear up all the rain and all the thundering?
Turn the speakers up and feel the music pondering
That our love show and flow throughout the continents
Amongst the rinse of thieves and leaves with our common senses
Feel the breeze and see with my stunning lenses, plus
Let's make it happen, there's no need for fail because
[Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Never get live like this, they
Never get live like this, they
Never get live like us, they
Never get live like this now
[Post-Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (Uh, down to this, and say)
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (By the sound of this, say)
[Verse 3: Myone]
I got this feeling in my bones that the time is right now
Ever since I got a mic, I can't seem to pipe down
Like I got a crack addiction, and rehab is the vibe that you get
When someone puts an ill tape in your deck
I mean a CD 'cause if we be in '06
Then MP3s like these'll make you say oh
It might make you feel like somebody put the soul in a hole
It's only 'cause it's been a ho of a road
I mean a hard road to hoe
Might slip up, still rip up tracks
And guaranteed I'll wax that abstract
My mind's a black MAC, protect mine, bust back and reload
It's hard up, comin' out of the cold
Y'all niggas better squad up if you ain't stealin' the show
And if you never thought us, we gon' give it a go
It's Badu and all us, big D in the hole
Nine yards holding it down and fa sho' we gettin' live
[Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Never get live like this, they
Never get live like this, they
Never get live like us, they
Never get live like this now
[Post-Chorus: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (Uh, down to this, and say)
Everybody's gettin', everybody's gettin'
Everybody's gettin' (By the sound of this, say)
[Outro: Erykah Badu, Myth]
Wow, wow, wow (Yeah)
Wow, wow, wow (Come on, ha)
Wow, wow, wow (Yeah)
Wow, wow, wow (Ee-dee-dee-dee-dee-dee, oh)
Wow, wow, wow (Yep)
Oh, ah, ah, oh-oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, oh
Ooh-hoo, ooh, yee, hey
Yee, hee, hee, hey, hey, wow
Whoa
Doo, doo, doo, doo, ca-dee-dee
Di-di-di, oh-oh-oh, uh
That's so strange
