Listen!!!

Fred D. Williams, Kwame B. Holland, Talib Kweli Greene

This the year of the BlackSmith
Talib Kweli (Kweli), K-One (K-One), let's go

(Listen) yeah, niggas don't (listen)
Back in the days we all used to (listen)
Now shit is so wack, nobody (listen)
To that real hip hop (listen), yo, (listen)

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready, here I come (listen)
Talib Kweli and I'm bangin' on ya eardrum
(I think I wanna hear you) What?
Now lemme get up in it, wait, wait, wait, wait

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me ya ears
Stop repentin' 'cause the ending is near
But don't panic, you can't function if you livin' in fear
Pay attention, you gotta (listen) to hear

(Wait just a minute) who the fuck you talkin' to?
Put you on hold, get a specialist to walk you through
Kweli, the flow captain of fast and slow rappin'
I'm so crackin', you ain't heard? Ya shit appear like closed captions

King of the bars and I'm goin' hard pause
All my confidence comes from knowin' God's Laws
Bangin' on the system, fightin' my kinda war
Loud as a whisper, quiet as a lion's roar (wait just a minute)

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready, here I come (listen)
Talib Kweli and I'm bangin' on ya eardrum
(I think I wanna hear you)
Now lemme get up in it (wait), this for you spirit so (wait)
But y'all don't hear me though (wait)

Get up, get into it and get involved (listen)
There's a little something that I wanna spit for y'all
(I think I wanna feel you)
Now lemme get up in it, wait (wait just), wait (wait just)
Wait (wait just), wait (wait just a minute)

Get it now, get it fast, get it right
Get it big, get it locked, get it done, get it tight
(I think I wanna feel you)
But you don't really hear me though
I spit clearly so it's live outcha stereo (listen)

To your heart while it's beatin' in ya chest (listen)
When you speakin' to execs and they see behind the desk (listen)
To ya spirit, nothing weaker than the flesh
So while you try to keep it fresh, you gettin' deeper into debt

Real hip hop is missin' from the shelf
Yup, it's what you felt when you listen to ya self (listen)
Only a few is makin' cuts that's spinnin'
So before you spend ya hard earned spinach (wait just a minute)

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready, here I come (listen)
Talib Kweli and I'm bangin' on ya eardrum
(I think I wanna hear you)
Now lemme get up in it (wait), this for you spirit so (wait)
But y'all don't hear me though (wait)

Get up, get into it and get involved (listen)
There's a little something that I wanna spit for y'all
(I think I wanna feel you)
Now lemme get up in it, wait (wait just), wait (wait just)
Wait (wait just), wait (wait just a minute)

You love the sounds comin' out your speaker
I spit rounds like a nine millimeter (listen)
The youth today, they frown at the teachers
They ain't down with no leaders (wait just, wait just)
They don't wanna wait just a (minute)

They like, "What? Nigga, wait right there"
I got reservoir dogs, you'll be missin' a right ear (listen)
Get it clear, I figure it's my year
I'm everywhere makin' appearances and niggas might miss (wait just a minute)

Hear the word, peep the flow, check the cadence (listen)
What you heard as a pro, I'm so amazing (listen)
Don't front, girl, you know it's ya favorite
New Kweli, yo, they runnin' out of patience (wait just a minute)

Ladies and gentlemen, get ready, here I come (listen)
Talib Kweli and I'm bangin' on ya eardrum
(I think I wanna hear you)
Now lemme get up in it (wait), this for you spirit so (wait)
But y'all don't hear me though (wait)

Get up, get into it and get involved (listen)
There's a little something that I wanna spit for y'all
(I think I wanna feel you)
Now lemme get up in it, wait (wait just), wait (wait just)
Wait (wait just), wait (wait just a minute)

Yo, don't it sound so good to you?
It's the return of the greatest, y'all
Talib Kweli, BKMC
Blacksmith is the movement, BlackSmith is the music

Whatchu ridin' for? Whatchu livin' for? Whatchu dyin' for?
(I think I wanna feel you)
Bangin' on ya eardrum, yeah

Wait just, wait just, wait now just a minute
(Listen)
Wait just, wait just, wait now just a minute
