You gotta know the, um exact way to get your point across* (If you say so, if you say so) You gotta have some game, some gab (Well if you say so, if you say so) A way with words, some shit Well as I stand back and peep you I'm seein things that the weak do Words you should never say Go on and save it for another day Twenty-four years on the bullshit planet Complained every day but boy cannot stand it Harder than granite just to make ends meet Harder than that to hold your tounge when you speak One "fuck you" and you might get beat One "What's your sign?" and your game turned weak Names get ruined real quick when you slip Wrong words lose jobs and fans from your dick Oops I didnt mean that, they love it when I'm humble Gotta make attempts to run it back after the fumble Stumble on words and people think that you're stupid If you do it too much then they may be correct Well she gets respect 'cause of what she just said And he gets head cause hes quick off the head So much I've seen it, studied it, and mean it Every time I speak, first I think Well as I stand back and peep you I'm seein things that the weak do Words you should never say Go on and save it for another day Well as I stand back and watch you I'm seein things that I gotta do Words that I must say Shit I wanna bust today Bein somewhat cool it all comes from the mind Knowin what to do is really how ya shine When people act stupid then its just a cover-up Nuthin else to think about, scared of fuckin up Well know when to stop and how to analyze things Learn about reactions different actions bring Fuck bein with people who get me into trouble `Cause when strangers get heated, then words count double I bubble off silence, movements, and presence Sometimes I lose it and use the wrong sentence Then comes repentance, can you talk your way out? Walk your way out without defenses Tenses and timing, alliteration, rhyming Gestures to go with the speach keep me constantly finding New ways to be me In my own place to be and how to function In this society Well as I stand back and peep you (you can be smart) I'm seein things that the weak do (have no game) Words you should never say (or you can have game) Go on and save it for another day (and be stupid) Well as I stand back and watch you (both of those don't work) I'm seein things that I gotta do (reshape your shit) Words that I must say (get it together) Shit I wanna bust today Well speak up and speak out Don't doubt your own mouth Hone what you can get together be a man Well all you really are is what you really have to say Don't let a day pass away without livin your way Givin it your all well that will get you started quick Learn from what you saw that will make you raw as this A jewel for flawlessness, and rarely ever miss I barely ever piss off a person watch the wordin Every time I'm servin straight sense not a burden Learn till its curtains and the world stops turnin Fuck what they earnin we yearnin for real answers Tryin ta build cancers and still make advances Too little time not to be about shit So I'm always on the grind, relateable when I spit Well as I stand back and peep you I'm seein things that the weak do Words you should never say Go on and save it for another day Well as I stand back and watch you I'm seein things that I gotta do Words that I must say Shit I wanna bust today Well as I stand back and peep you (watchin you fool) I'm seein things that the weak do (shit is so stupid what some of y'all are doin) Words you should never say Go on and save it for another day (save that shit!) Well as I stand back and watch you I'm seein things that I gotta do Words that I must say (gotta say some shit) Shit I wanna bust today [Grouch: {Talking over beat}] Got hella shit to say Tryin to say it right Open right shit Use the right words Right body language and all that shit It's The Grouch..
