[Additional Vocals: MF Grimm]
[Intro: MF Grimm]
You mean everything no matter what
Goes on ‘cause the world gotta spin
You’re everything, you’re everything
Something special
[Verse 1: Baron of Red Clay]
Yo, at times
Feel I should leave, but many would say to stay (Stay)
Questions uncertainty, but built with you every day
Knew we belonged together, and so we still do it—rather
Still body-rocking though not as congruent. No, not
Half as fluent, relating quite how we usually
But here to tell you ‘bout your wild style and what it do it to me (What it do?)
Was in them streets before them corporate offices
Hiding in high-rises, too mighty to take a walk with us
Uptown-bound, the southern poppers and lockers
Some thought that you was wilding while downtown with them rockers
You always came back, had them days of how we were, but these
Days, you fugays’ foundations are but a blur
Can’t fault you for what occurred. Same people that hang around you done, you
Walk ‘til you’re sore, poverty-pimped by scoundrels
Thought that you were helping ‘em, [?]
Put under crazy pressure, now feeling you gotta feed ‘em
And compromising positions never was your intentions (Uh uh)
Sensitive subject. Just moving on my apprehension, love
I’ve been concerned, ain’t easy for me to mention
But your family asked for this needed intervention
[Hook: Block McCloud] (x2)
Everything is everything, love is love
You my next of kin. Brother from another, represent
They say happiness is relative. Whatever’s
Clever never settle for less, we’re ready for everything
[Verse 2: Majesty (AKA Gamma-Ra)]
Uh
What the cliché? Blood’s thicker than water, but
All my brothers came from another mother
Same with my sisters, except one is bugged. I guess
The cliché’s true, except we thicker than blood
We never hold a grudge, discuss all the issues
Beef with my family? Sorry, your blood gon’ miss you
Your water won’t care ‘cause they was never there
Wouldn’t help you out with half a train fare
You’re laying in a pool of what your fam was supposed to be
Blood be AIDS-infected, so you’ll never see ‘em close to me
Potency of this passion that we share is everlasting
My poetry in action and every shape form a fashion
It’s manifesting through the essence of everything
Son, if I got it, you got it—I mean anything
So recognize that we’re one and the same
Blood’s thicker than water, but Mongoose in my veins
[Hook: Block McCloud] (x2)
Everything is everything, love is love
You my next of kin. Brother from another, represent
They say happiness is relative. Whatever’s
Clever never settle for less, we’re ready for everything
[Verse 3: Mr. Metaphor]
Yeah, yo, she got
Everything, caramel skin and a belly ring
She intelligent, she my everything, ain’t no jealousy
Straight confidence on a melody, so
Promising. Woman, you my everything, everything
Our love in this world is positive energy
Nothing negative in the chemistry. Steadily
We move forward to a future. Everything I do is for the
Love of this music, and it’s my everything, everything
All around me, reflections and puddles, mirror images
Bubble. We’re piecing the puzzle together, everything
Let’s celebrate birthdays with the pelicaine
Holidays every day, let’s delegate everything to
Come together. The sunny weather, my Monday’s
Better when I know I got everything ahead of me
My destiny, my heavenly everything. Let’s take it
Day By Day for the bettering of everything
[Hook: Block McCloud] (x2)
Everything is everything, love is love
You my next of kin. Brother from another, represent
They say happiness is relative. Whatever’s
Clever never settle for less, we’re ready for everything
[Outro: MF Grimm]
Yeah, that’s that new one from Day By Day. You are everything. And now we’re gonna get back to that American Hunger. Grimy stuff. Haha
