This Ain't No Jive

Tilla Sonrise AKA Twizted Metaphorz

See I ain't here just to talk Jack
When the alpha male speaks nobody talks back

It's time for you to pay attention
Cuz I think you've been missing
See stars take listening

Stars Glisten
‘Cause Stars Take 2 Listening

But I don't see your shine
I don't see your shot
Cuz I don't see your mind

And I can't see your mind
Because you can't find your mind

Looking for money
Money is in your mind
Money is in your mind
I said money is in your mind

Digging for gold nuggets
Try to find a jewel to spend

You can't find no jewels to spit
If you ain't got no jewels and s***

Where are your diamonds
Where are your golden thoughts and pearls
That you can give to the world
That makes them want to stop living the way they're living

Because the way they are living
They living towards dying
And if they are dying
Then how then are they living

You feeding them that slop
And I don't mean no disrespect and no problems
Those cats running from Cops

But you've been feeding the people slave food
Leftovers
And they've been forced to turn chitlins into a gourmet meal

And they ride around listening to your music like a chitlin circuit
Because when they plug into you
They don't really know what to do
Because you don't know the signs of the math
And you don't laugh at the science

I said you don't know the science of the math
And you don't know the math or the signs

If people are supposed to live in peace
What does your music make them live
In violence

Silence
The alpha male has to speak
I need you to listen and understand
The words of men that don't know how to communicate with men
Unless they're speaking like bullets

You have forgotten who you were
Because now they teach you who you are

They told you that you were a star
But you don't shine

Stars Glisten
‘Cause Stars Take 2 Listening

Run that back
Listen again
Find your mind
Then shine
