Talib Kweli - Stand To The Side (feat. Novel & Vinia Mojica) Lyrics
[Kweli]Go right to left, left to rightMiddle passage connectionYeah, about to buildTell you which way to go[Both]We go right to left, left to rightIf you fight to the death, what's left to fightX4Yo, here we go[Kweli]I wanna write awayI wanna write hereI wanna write brave words to fight fearWrite dreams and nightmaresMight scare the folks stuck in the dayBut nothing to say,Well I'm way ahead by light yearsSo beware we keep the lights onI wanna write the songs from right to wrongRight onRiding the light so you see in the darkSo deep you gotta be still like your beating heartMy words apply the pressure to make the bleeding stopSee the art, living right, eating smartI wanna right to life, a right to deathPolice read your rights from right to leftBut I never write to remain silentI fight through police lineCops walk the beat that I write toI teach minds, write rhymes with the right soundRight now, journalists write upI write down[Both] :ChorusParty people put a hand in the skyGrab a cloud and squeeze til no man is dryWe wet it up, go ask the people if they plannin to dieCan't stay to live, consumers is plannin to buySmoke death operators is standing byThey take you order for the slaughter of the family whyDo they make it so hard for a man to provideYou better get wit it, or {stand to the side X7}[Vinia Mojica]And the story line goes onRight to left, who's right who's wrong***** the politics and prideI just to try to stay aliveTo witness where the battle lines are drawnSpeak my mind and sing my songI'm passin on the moral y'all-aca
