paroles de chanson Express Yourself (Digital Remaster 00) - N.W.A.

Yo, man, there's a lot of brothers out there
Flakin' and perpetratin', too scared to kick reality
Man, you been doin' all this dope producin'
You ain't had a chance to show 'em what time it is
So watchu want me to do?
Express yourself
I'm expressin' with my full capabilities
And now I'm livin' in correctional facilities
'Cause some don't agree with how I do this
I get straight and meditate, like a Buddhist
I'm droppin' flavour, my behavior is hereditary
But my technique is very necessary
Blame it on Ice Cube because he said it gets funky
When you got a subject and a predicate
Add it on a dope beat and it'll make you think
Some suckers just tickle me pink to my stomach
'Cause they don't flow like this one
You know what, I won't hesitate to diss one or two
Before I'm through so don't try to sing
This some drop science, well I'm droppin' English
Even if Yella, makes it a cappella
I still express, yo, I don't smoke weed or sess
'Cause it's known to give a brother brain damage
And brain damage on the mic don't manage nothing
But makin' a sucker and you equal
Don't be another sequel
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Now, gettin' back to the PG
That's program and it's easy
Dre is back, New Jacks are made hollow
Expressin' niggers subject because they like to follow
The words, the style, the trend, the records I spin
Again and again and again, yo y'all on the other end
Watch a brother bringin' dope rhymes, with no help
There's no fessin' or guessin' while I'm expressin' myself
It's crazy to see people be what society wants 'em to be
But not me
Ruthless, is the way to go, they know
Others say rhymes which fail to be original
Or they kill where the hip-hop starts
Forget about the ghetto, and rap for the pop charts
Some musicians cuss at home
But scared to use profanity when up on the microphone
Yeah, they want reality but you won't hear none
They rather exaggerate a little fiction
Some say no to drugs and take a stand
But after the show they go lookin' for the Dopeman
Or they ban my group from the radio
"Here, N.W.A.", they say, "Hell no!"
But you know it ain't all about wealth
As long as you make a note to
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
From the heart 'cause if you wanna start to move up the chart
Then expression is a big part of it
You ain't efficient when you flow, you ain't swift
Movin' like a tortise, full o' rigor mortis
There's a little bit more to show
I got rhymes in my mind, embedded like a embryo
Or a lesson, all of them expression
And if you start fessin', I got a Smith and Weston for ya
I might ignore your record because it has no bottom
I might get loose in the summer, winter, spring and autumn
It's Dre on the mic gettin' physical
Doing the job, N.W.A. is the lynch mob
Yes, I'm Macabre but you know you need this
And the knowledge is growing just like a fetus
Or tumor, well here's the rumour
Dre's in the neighbourhood and he's up to no good
When I start expressing myself, yella slam me
'Cause if I stay funky like this, I'm doin' damage
Or I'ma be too hyped and need a straightjacket
I got knowledge and other suckers lack it
So when you see Dre, a DJ on the mic
Ask what it's like, it's like we gettin' hype tonight
'Cause if I strike, it ain't for your good health
But I won't strike if you just
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
