Yo, everywhere we go
Pittsburgh, Cincinnati, Columbus, worldwide
New York, VA, Maryland, DC, Florida, worldwide, Japan, forever
Check it out
Yo, everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among a galaxy
Where life's reality, but without no unity
We'll all be held captive inside society
So everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among the galaxy
A swift analogy would say that knowledge is the key
When it's applied to all things naturally
Yo, every step I take I must investigate throughout my travels
As my life unravels, I go through battle after battle
Whether it's inside, all these people fucking with my pride
I'm open wide with nowhere to run, nowhere to hide
But you know that's not my style, a prophecy spoke of this child
Turning into a man, teaching lessons 'cross the land
He'll be synonymous with sand, infinite and
Be able to speak of how it was when time began
When there was only one man, skin was dark tan
Creating worlds out of black holes with both hands
And that's the program without the use of your computer
Getting closer to the truth as we journey towards the future
My city has gun shooters, McDonald's and Hooters
Kids who front wheelies and drive rented Land Cruisers
Crooked cops, drug users, so realize it's all the same
When you're saying where you from more than you say your name, see
Players play games, but a team'll win the war
Just check your history so you can see what is in store
1774 'Til '76
Five men thought that Freemasonry should make a switch
Close the doors to all the poor, open them for the rich
Just look around today, it still exists, so
Everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among a galaxy
Where life's reality, but without no unity
We'll all be held captive inside society
So everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among the galaxy
A swift analogy would say that knowledge is the key
When it's applied to all things naturally, yo
I can't believe I'm still sane through
All this lightning, thunder, rain
I'm drenched by all the pain my elders felt I came
With the mic hooked up to the ASR-10
Making samples bend between snares, hits, and hi-hats
'Til your ass lie back and say, "Yo, that shit was phat"
Think about it, wasn't that the reason you started to rap?
"Where the money at?" is all I hear, the image is clear
That you live life and prosper, you must be a millionaire
Got my people looking like fools, exploited by a gimmick
That was faker than the friends that jetted when your career finished
Now you all up in it, and the shit don't ever stop
It goes on and on like the hands of a clock
See, I think before I talk, look around before I walk
Because ain't nothing like being motionless surrounded by chalk
Plus a man like myself think about chickens too much
If I'm not thinking, I'm seeing, if I'm not seeing, I touch
Make you say, "What?" Temptation is rising just like inflation
Mind controls the body, body sends the information
But without the circulation process of elimination
Delete 'bout half the nation, they controlling population
My peoples have to learn to be a little bit more patient
See, while you splurging, that money fucking you like a virgin
Find out how to expand a hundred dollars to a grand
See, purchase some land before you go purchase that Land Cruiser
America's a bitch, so watch me prostitute her
'Til my shell starts to shatter, yo, it don't matter
Everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among a galaxy
Where life's reality, but without no unity
We'll all be held captive inside society
So everywhere I go, I'm standing on top of the world
Gravity balance me, I'm among the galaxy
A swift analogy would say that knowledge is the key
