Lyrics

0:01Hahaha today was a good day
0:06Know what sometimes
0:07I just get on my knees
0:09You know what I mean
0:11And pray to the man
0:13With the master plan
0:16To swoop on down (swoop on down)
0:20On that mothership
0:22scoop a ni**a up
0:26Lord have mercy
0:26My people so thirsty
0:27Come feed 'em
0:29Either Jesus or Muhammad
0:31All we get is vomit
0:32Come like a comet
0:34Put it in my brain Lord
0:35Put it in my stomach
0:37Only you can run it
0:38I'ma learn from it
0:40Do what I gotta do try not to plummet
0:43America eats its youth like reptiles
0:45Don't worry bout tomorrow
0:47Let's get this right now
0:49They want to run us in the ground
0:51Educate yourself before they dumb you down
0:54Get your money boy
0:55The legal way
0:57Beat 'em with they own
0:58b******t if you may
0:59Now rich white men they
1:00Got the world f**ked up
1:02Why should I give a f**k
1:03About a styrofoam cup
1:05Environmental scene
1:06I'll keep it clean
1:07But if I go green
1:09You know what I mean b**ch
1:12Take me away from these people
1:18Take me away from these people
1:20(Take me away)
1:23Take me away from these people
1:29Take me away from these people
1:33Ice Cube for President
1:35Let's just do it for the hell of it
1:37See how I'd run the
1:38Government - make money irrelevant
1:41I might tell a chick
1:42It's illegal to be celibate
1:43Secret Service don't
1:45Know where the hell I went
1:47Sorry y'all I had to f**k a Superdelegate
1:50Dream ticket Ice Cube and Obama
1:52American dream Ice Cube and yo' mama
1:55The Terminator are you Sarakana
1:58Arnold Schwarzenegger
1:58Can kill who he wanna
2:00In California they
2:02Strap you to a gurney
2:03And murder yo' a**
2:04In front of your attorney
2:07Do you really wanna
2:08Take this journey
2:09Ain't scared of none of y'all
2:11Motherf**kers like Bernie
2:12Mac (step back) Step back
2:14I got the Mac-11
2:15Unlike Obama I'ma have
2:16To back my reverand
2:19Take me away from these people
2:25Take me away from these people
2:27(Take me away)
2:30Take me away from these people
2:36Take me away from these people
2:39Now the Lord is my shepherd
2:41My flow is respected
2:42Worldwide from the West I got to rep it
2:45So please check it
2:46'Cause my style is infected
2:48With the virus Ice Cube's the Osiris
2:51I bail through they wanna
2:52Put me up in Bellevue
2:54Cause my point of view is
2:55Not red white and blue
2:57It's black and blue residue
2:58I know what crack can do
3:00To a whole f**kin' avenue
3:02Speak on it and they'll get mad at you
3:04You think I do this b******t
3:06For your gratitude
3:08I'm a Ni**a With a Attitude
3:10I'ma do what I gotta do
3:12Just to change my latitude
3:14Pimp the system rollin'
3:15With my diamonds glistenin'
3:17And niggaz listenin'
3:18From your local prison
3:19I'm a prism your only
3:21Vision is a rainbow
3:22In the sky when
3:23I spit the ism come on
3:26Take me away from these people
3:29(Take me away)
3:32Take me away from these people
3:34(Take me away)
3:37Take me away from these people
3:40(Take me away)
3:43Take me away from these people
Hahaha today was a good day
