I'd like to dedicate this to all of the Creator's righteous children
I have some food in my bag for you
Not that edible food, the food you eat?
No, I have some food for thought
Since knowledge is infinite, it has infinitely fell on me
It was a stormy night
You know, the kind where the lightning strikes
And I was hanging out with some of my artsy friends
Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-ooh
The night was long, the night went on
People cooling out until the break of dawn
Incense was burning, so I'm feeling right, alright
See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around tryna be what I'm not
I don't waste my time tryna get what you got
I work at pleasing me, 'cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo-wee, doo-wee, doo-wee
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Then you don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Then you don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You just don't wanna be down
I have a hoe, and I take it everywhere I go
'Cause I'm plantin' seeds, so I reap what I sow (you know?) You know?
Oh, on and on, and on and on
My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone
I can't control the soul flowing in me
(Ooh-wee) ooh -wee
See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around tryna be what I'm not
I don't waste my time tryna get what you got
I work at pleasing me, 'cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo-wee, doo-wee, doo-wee
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You just don't wanna be down
Oh-my-my-my
Oh-my-my-my
Oh-my-my-my, oh
Oh-m-m-m-m-m-m-my, oh, oh
See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around tryna be what I'm not
I don't waste my time tryna get what you got
I work at pleasing me, 'cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo-wee, doo-wee, doo-wee
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Dum-dum-diddy
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You just don't wanna be down
You just don't wanna be down (you just don't wanna be down)
Oh, you just don't wanna be down
Down, down, down
You just don't wanna be down, oh
You just don't wanna be down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down
Down, down, down, down
Wanna be down, no, oh, no
