Not da Way 2 Do It Lyrics
[Intro Scratches]
This is how I feel
In the mix
Good evening
It's not the way to do it
[Verse 1: A-F-R-O]
Get my head together, get back in the Origami
Folded back to me calmly, put it back into piece properly
Hopping over the hurdle, what's stopping me from the prize
But I have to put in myself in top shape, and compromise
The bad health, turn it to good, and cancel out the fatigue
Don’t dance around me, while I keep to the drum over every beat
I brung the force to let it breathe and I need to pursue it
Integrity, 'cause if I lose it
(It's not the way 2 do it)
I’m not sober, but I tip my FRO to my people who try
They best not to drink a drop or puff chronic, man I’m honest
I done got some thoughts to unlock and re-evaluate
A coin toss, wonder what it cost to re-calculate
I look up at the clouds with a question mark on me
Should I feel proud of the blessin’ brought upon me
I see those who gave up, got beat down, and so forth
I push forth, to never forget what I came for
[Chorus: A-F-R-O]
And my advice, young man
Don’t get caught up in a jam, cause it’s
(Not the way to do it)
As a man, you provide for your fam
And you never bite the hand, 'cause it's
(Not the way to do it)
When you rhyming’ on the mic, and ya voice ain’t right
(It's not the way to do it)
When you only dream of the gold, when you scheme on the low
(It's not the way to do it)
[Verse 2: Young Hump]
?
[Chorus: Young Hump]
?
[Verse 3: A-F-R-O]
And for the criminals, and crooks, and the murderers
Read a book to be bright, don’t be a burglar
And if it’s lust, or glutton, that you pursuin’
You find yourself in sewage, cause it’s
(Not the way to do it)
A tear rolls down my cheek to see poverty
And bad cops that wanna squabble, but we ain’t bother nobody
I’m like the young old wise mind of Robin Hood
The only time I need gold is to give it back to the poor
Unnatural how my people acting so animalistic
Unfathomable, a surprise Caliber ballistic
That travel to the innocent, must to put a stop to it
The wicked foolishness, I’m just not used to it
Damn
[Chorus: A-F-R-O]
And my advice, young man
Don’t get caught up in a jam, cause it’s
(Not the way to do it)
As a man, you provide for your fam
And you never bite the hand, 'cause it's
(Not the way to do it)
When you rhyming’ on the mic, and ya voice ain’t right
(It's not the way to do it)
When you only dream of the gold, when you scheme on the low
(It's not the way to do it)
[Chorus: Young Hump]
?
