#118;>Chorus (after hours it was cool x8)<br /><br />Q-tip:<br /><br />Ten after one I think I’ll hop the horse<br />Downtown late of three of course<br />Just came from fishing couldn’t get a catch<br />Downtown they’ll probably have a batch<br />A whitened sandwich and again it stopped<br />But with the bail though I had a bout<br />So I exchanged it for some apple juice<br />I had the blues but I shook them loose<br />A jeep is blasting from the urban streets<br />Loots of funk over hardcore beats<br />The moon dabbles in the morning sky<br />As the minutes just creep on by<br />I get a thought and hear comes my tribe<br />Ritual shakes and in good vibes<br />Like always the quest begins<br />In the mist though but the rhyth’s move in<br />We find a spot and we sit and chat<br />Speaking on the status quo of rap<br />A derelick makes a real long speach<br />We pay attention to the words he read<br />When he was done we rattled on<br />There was no lunch because it wasn’t dawn<br />We pointed things out about this times<br />The worlds famons and the crazy crimes<br />Inflation of the nation, it bothers me<br />I better go gold, to pay the taxes<br />Gotta be swift society<br />The man whose made is the man who maxes<br />The grounds for living are being discussed<br />As we go it gets close to dusk<br />Gather thoughts and savor breath<br />Cause there’s only a few hours left<br /><br />Chorus:<br />After hours it was cool (x8)<br /><br />Q-tip:<br /><br />Me ohh my, hey-hey, hey-hey<br />The human hours are here to stay<br />This is how it seems(? ) my witness<br />Bug out all night, ask phife, he’s with this<br />Girls be screaming on this conversation<br />I have my two cents for a revelation<br />And my watch continuously tic-tocs<br />Shaheed will bring up the beats that rocks<br />I hear the frogs and the smashing of bottles<br />A car revs up and I hear it trottle<br />It probably moves with the morning wind<br />Ohh my god, here’s phife again<br />(? ) talking about last nights game<br />Trying to remember someone’s name<br />So hear the frogs dancing in the streets<br />Once again ali will bring up the beat<br />Like this<br /><br />(sounds of frogs)<br /><br />Q-tip:<br /><br />The beat is over and so is the night<br />The sun is risen and the shine is bright<br />We all say peace and go our separate ways<br />Youth is fading as we gain our days<br />Expedition for the song is simp’<br />The hours creep, excuse me, I mean limp<br />As we go you hear a gasp of laugh<br />As we start up our rhythmic path<br />Like this<br /><br />Chorus<br />
