Words

Lyrics

[Hook] Words are underrated Like so many things from the old times They're fadin' away, fallin' into disarray Words are underrated [Verse 1] Intelligently speakin', words are deepened Keepin' up on top, it's the sound of Selekt Few reapin' Words that we sow, words we wrote for you Words created true, words are underrated, dude If you can't keep up then let me slow it down Words are underrated Now hear these words creep from lyrics creatеd With sounds undisturbed as English when translated Words arе the norm, not better than yours Selected from a dictionary, the Oxford of course Over a billion people that understand these words All around the globe, my language spoken and heard Yeah, the British brought it to Australia layin' claim to the world They told it to the kids, the little boys and the girl Now some language is gone, totally extinct Makes you wonder how many words no longer exist [Hook] Words are underrated Like so many things from the old times They're fadin' away, fallin' into disarray Words are underrated Words are underrated Like so many things from the old times They're fadin' away, fallin' into disarray Words are underrated [Verse 2] Once six said it "Read between the lines" Hip-hop's about content, not just about rhymes So choose a topic, give us your views on it Findin' it hard? Then maybe you should quit 'Cause MCs wastin' words is absurd Content is king when there's purpose to the words The facts and research will make it interesting Like plain old Paul askin' "Where is the king?" Words are underrated, so many underused The four letter kind always gettin' abused So pass and progress, put yourself to the test Interchange, exchange flow with finesse Possibilities are infinite, vast and unlimited Vernacular stretched, rhymin' uninhibited So break from the usual, make it individual As they're yours, so keep movin' em forwards
