Make It Work - Q-Tip

My saga goes on as I romance the song

Original hip-hop cat shorty push on

I could reminisce back to a sunnier day

Where everybody shot fives

And when you shook and push paint

Get off the back seat and activate your feet

Because the focus of the mission

Is the rhythm and the beat

Not concentrating on the character assassination

Or the influx of money from association

You’re listening to one of the last lights glowing

Who can hear the sharp F and still keep shit flowing

Really dig, let me give myself a plug here

It’s Q-Tip here to service every plug there

And introduce to you all a brand new sound to pound

Lush, fortify and revitalize your crown

Life is but a dream

And as the music is streamed

Let it work inside of you

Into reality’s thing

Do your thing

We are gonna make it work

Make it work

Listen to Kurt’s work, baby

Like a genie, if you rub me right, you’ll get things

Not a hungry ass rapper, with some inventive things

I’mma concentrate on building up the repertoire

Eventually inviting all of y’all to the seminar

Where you can sit down and extinguish your trite beats

It’s Rainbow

Collate and implement peace

I breathe in myth and exhale truth

Standing out in the industry

And plus I’m aloof

I’m about to bring it to you in a better band

You can catch us 1nce again on David Letterman

I could make it right, lady

Just because I’m Muslim

Does that put me on your wanted list?

Government games and corporate gaze

Wanna see an underprivileged man crumble in pain

Wanna see every race become separate and vain

But I’m telling you, man

bring about a change

Plus I see you mami as you’re dancing

You can chance and

Your life could end

Connect to your deeper friend

To artists abroad, this art is a bore

With a brand new vision

Come and get it while it’s given

I got my focus on

I keeps my chi strong

We gonna make this motherfucker bang real hard

The uprising of the positive inquisitive

In spirit, we’re derivative

Praise it and we let it live

We are gonna make it work

Them them we gon' make it work

Still we gonna make it work

Chris, we gonna make it work

, we gonna make it work

Shaka, we gon' make it work

Nitro, we gon' make it work

Qiana, we gon' make it work

Yes we gonna make it work

Aiesa, we gon' make it work

, we gonna make it work

Mama, we gon' make it work

Everybody, we gon' make it work

Everybody, we gon' make it work

Everybody, we gon' make it work
