Your Voice

Lyrics

[Verse 1: Macho] Heat gets spit lips catch on fire/ Internationally I inspire/ Peasants sire's mc's choirs/ All inquire about God's empire/ My ability makes room while the speakers go boom/ Y'all tune to the station that caters to the nation of Hip Hop/ And I'm on it cause I want it/ While you iced out with diamonds/ I bring color to airwaves like an onyx/ With microscopic topics your mind blocked when I dropped it/ So you had to rewind and re rock it/ Couldn't get caught with natural optics/ So I made y'all close your eyes open your mind hoping you'll find/ The reason to my rhyme reading the seasons and signs/ In each letter- word- line- bar- verse- hook- song/ I take you through a path 24 years long/ Leaving legacies centuries after I'm gone [Hook] Yo I am your voice/ I think your thoughts/ I speak your words we are (we are, we are)/ I'm in your mind/ I write your rhymes/ And you write mine we are (we are, we are)/ [Verse 2: Elsie] I'm the gift of rhythm/ The gift of rhyme/ For over twenty years I've been making tape decks rewind/ While I spit out the signs of the times/ You realize I'm the song of the streets/ The heart of this beat/ Through the tone of the drums you can hear my people speak/ Sometimes I catch heat/ Still I freak the blue steal/ Must tell the world what's real/ No need to hide how we feel/ Nothing concealed/ I use my voice to speak loud, tell stories, rock crowds/ I vowed to be free/ To speak for you and speak for me/ Life's poetry/ No definition holding me/ I'm the art of the city/ I could party or get gritty/ From Roxbury to Cali/ I got a 24track mind/ A system bumpin' loud my voice amplified/ Cd's and wax so I can speak world wide/ And a tape deck in the whip to enjoy the ride/ Enjoy the ride [Hook] Yo I am your voice/ I think your thoughts/ I speak your words we are (we are, we are)/ I'm in your mind/ I write your rhymes/ And you write mine we are (we are, we are)/ [Verse 3: New Breed alternating between together and alone] Yo I'm international/ Plus I'm into rational thought/ I bring the facts to your brain and interact with your heart/ From the light of the world to the dark part of the gutter/ You feel me in jazz, African drums capuetta/ From the start I been a part of the ghetto blood stream/ I'm the expression of a poet/ I'm every thug's dream/ I went commercial and hurt you on an industry level/ Now I'm gospel apostles tool to abuse the devil/ Here for ages just turn the pages of generations/ From pictures painted by Jesus to scrolls from the pen of David/ I'm an inspiration/ Challenge the thoughts of nations/ Down for the celebration and there through the frustration/ I'm an emotion, opinion I can't be wrong or right/ Could care less if I get spit from the lips of black or white/ Male or female free or slave Greek or Jew/ As long as it's kept true to who I am [Hook] Yo I am your voice/ I think your thoughts/ I speak your words we are (we are, we are)/ I'm in your mind/ I write your rhymes/ And you write mine we are (we are, we are)/ Yo I am your voice/ I think your thoughts/ I speak your words we are (we are, we are)/ I'm in your mind/ I write your rhymes/ And you write mine we are (we are, we are)/
