Yes, welcome to the wonderful sounds of Talib Kweli (Let me in of love) Ladies I got you in the mood, for an interlude Raw like in the nude, I hope this ain't considered rude But let's stop talkin, 'cause it's feelin like an interview I know you into me so let me get into you I'm always in the mood for laughin' and lovin' and rappin' and (fuck!) Passin' the dutch and relaxin' and puffin' and hittin' and duckin' The rippin' production, these kittens ain't muffins Just because we stuff 'em in the oven My words drippin' off the tongue like the wax from a candle wick It'll the way I lay down the rap; they can't handle it Cats all sappy like romantic flicks, dude, get a clue Like Colonel Mustard in the study with a candlestick They holdin' hands with these dudes like they goin' steady But one glimpse and I know they ready, you already know Slipped her a note like, "You ready to go? We make a getaway plan and we head for the do!" I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (c'mon) Navigate through the truly bizarre Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (yea-yea-yeah, yeah) Navigate through the truly bizarre (Jesus!) Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life (uh-uh, uh-uh) And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight (whoo!) You messin' up my mo', my whole mood, told y'all, oh Lose, eat crews like crews like soulfood The only producer that feel like, "Fuck, rappers!" Only backpacker with a chip like hackers Only Michael Richardson, only much blacker So if he say nigga, then I'ma say Is this the Ritz? Carlton? Dress like, fresh like, just like I'm the shit (ugh!) You ain't figured out what I'm about yet Always rockin' that this ain't out yet But this ain't 'bout that From a city where niggers plug like outlets Far as music go yo, it ain't no outlets, so When I go out, niggas always out to get me in the studio And I ain't in the mood to flow I'm with my girl and I'm tryna hit the movies, yo And they tryna act stupid, oh! In the club with Silicone Suzie What happened to real girls like Rudy? With real titties like Tooty This girl got a silicone booty! And got the nerve to act moody! Now I ain't tryna judge like Judy But bitch, you a man, you can't fool me Act like Fifty, throw her in a pool G I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (yeah) Navigate through the truly bizarre (uh, uh, uh) Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (c'mon) Navigate through the truly bizarre Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight Break it down Uh, what? Uh-ah, uh-ah, ah Uh-ah, uh-ah, ah, yeah (Do- what?) Uh-ah, uh-ah, ah, what? Uh-ah, uh-ah, ah, what? (Do- what?) Uh-ah, uh-oh, yeah (do- what?) Bringin' the drum, keep it funky like a stink in a slum 'Cause see they wanna breed cursin' for the things that don't come The speaker's wrong that we rap dudes speakin' in tongues Christmas time, choice for what? No we keepin' our guns Smokin' a piff to cause a leak in your lungs You ain't got shit to do like Friday when the weekend begun Completely done with rap dudes, don't compete with the dumb I spill my blood for the people, see how deep it can run? I'm in the mood like Dante and Main Flow Never comin' with the same flow, got it's change, yo It's strange, yo, to make yo chain glow, that's yo main goal That's a facade like I'm somewhere over the rainbow Really, these cats sweeter than mangoes, Mr Bonjangles-ass dudes Dancin' around the club, doin' the tango Go hard like Iverson playin' with hurt ankles Plus, wrestle the topic from a different Kurt Angle! I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (c'mon) Navigate through the truly bizarre Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight I wear the night like a cloak 'cause I move with the stars (c'mon) Navigate through the truly bizarre Who we are, who we is, it's the kids that stay true to this life And if the mood is right, we gon' do it tonight Wow, that's a nice track!
