Protect your jimmy, keep it fresh Anything is everything, more is less It's all sight, sound and smell, tastes and felts Knuckle up and buckle up your safety belt Lift with your legs, speak with your mind See the bigger screen, read between the lines Brush your teeth, squash the beef And judge the tree by both sides of the leaf Save your soul, and spend your money Laugh at his jokes and pretend they funny Talk about your goals and hide your wants Give 'em something they can hold and get a better response Believe in karma, truth and honor Respect the youth and understand the drama Think about your move before you make it And see the motive for the info and advice before you take it Traffic lights, and stop signs Cops and crimes, top of the line I lost my mind, I found my feet Look over my shoulder before I cross the street Dead zone, when in Rome I'm beggin' for attention to be left alone Headphones in flesh tones And little Slug was having trouble trying to get home Write a song, write a million songs But they all the same song, it's like one long song Fight the wrong and make 'em sing along And continue to consume until the hunger's gone Speak your piece and move on, move on I need to buy time, but first I gotta find the coupon And when I climb the mountain, I'm gonna teach, I promise But for now, you can reach me at the office Get a job, catch a buzz, learn something, cook dinner Find a mate and copulate, but try to pick a winner Go to school, teach something, be a voice, paint a picture (Turn the TV off, man, you don't need a babysitter) Read a book, write a book, plot a move, take over Watch for motorcycles, calm down, be a donor Nine out of ten doctors prefer they secretaries Cuz they sick of going home and going down on what they married Do your homework, solve the problem, and celebrate Tip the bartender, breathe and meditate Oversleep, wake up late, push snooze, take a bath When you finish with your drink, they let you keep the glass Skip class, jump curbs, walk the dog, run slow Leap faith, stand tall, sit still, take control Yo, you throw like a girl and you hate the world And you've lost all your nuts trying to chase a squirrel But some of these cats don't know how to meow I try to open my eyes to take a look at me now Alphabetize the records that sit on the shelf I think you need some advice on how to think for yourself Ayo, they want the light, but they don't want the light They act like they don't know wrong from right They say the want the truth, but they have the truth They act like they forgot how to move (Dead) I ain't trying to wait for no one else to help I think you need some advice on how to think for yourself I said I ain't trying to wait for no one else to help I think you need some advice on how to think for yourself I said I ain't trying to wait for no one else to help I think you need some advice on how to think for yourself I ain't trying to wait for no one else to help I think you need some advice on how to think for yourself
