Now, get busy! Now once upon a time up on this mic MC's be really workin' on what they write With the sound delight, we rock all night And, yes, we're gonna party for the right to fight We're international like Matt Takei Rock the mic from Munich out to Taipei Still around the way is where we'll stay Say what we mean, mean what we say Trajectories from the past are taking their toll and What we do now is future mouldin' Columbine bowlin', childhood stolen We need a bit more gun controllin' Right (right), now (now), what is goin' on? We (we), gotta (gotta), get it goin' on Be (be), fore (fore), it's too far gone We gotta work together, it's been too long When I get on you scream, "Hoo tight!" Rockin' this flow, I could go all night I'm not here to fight or incite I'm like the beach in the Bahamas, make you feel alright I'm getting kind of tired of the situation The US attacking other nations And narrations, on every station False elation's got me losing my patience Well, I'm a funky-ass Jew and I'm on my way And, yes, I got to say, "Fuck the KKK" And, oh yeah, hey, how about today?
