[Skit]
Scratch
Scratch, wake up, man
My bad, my bad, my bad
Something's really bothering me, man, it's like
You know, we did this album from start to finish
It's, you know, five in the morning
And, uh, something doesn't feel right
Like I thought it was bangin', but something's not right
I'm just tryna figure out what I should do
What do you mean you're?—
What you talkin'?—
Do another one?
A hidden track?
Yo, man, it's five in the morning, a hidden track? Why? Why?
You think they wanna hear some more?
You think it's gon' work?
You don't have to spit on me like that, I'll do it

[Intro: Black Thought]
Yo, yo
Yeah, yeah, yeah, come on (Yes I)
No doubt, yes, I (P-5-D)
Check it out, yo, yo

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Arigato to all my people in Japan
Whether you rockin' Cartier or Pierre Cardin
I'm bargin' in like excuse, I beg your pardon
To crush carbon-copy emcees with clone jargon
Move the crowd to leave the microphone sparkin'
Leave you caught inside the lines of my page beneath the margin
Now we could mud-sling to cease the foul-talkin'
I personally'd rather keep things peace, but it's your option
I hit the block with hip-hop, it's like oxen
Stampede with lyrical heavyweight boxing
Yo, just give thanks, it's the new shit
For y'all to ever try to sleep on this is stupid
My thought's deep like the upright acoustic
Bass, Cold Crush like Charlie Chase
To keep the ladies grindin' like a slow jam
You just a sloe gin fizz, kid, get with the program
My style hundred proof, I pause for no man
The Fifth Dynasty, that's the slogan (Yeah)
From SP to West P to Logan
The planet is a parachute, I got 'em open (Word up)
[Chorus]
Ayo I'm out there, ayo, I'm still out there
Worldwide, yo, I'm still out there
Roots Crew forever out there
Ayo, I'm still out there
SP to the, out there, ayo
You know I'm out there, what? I'm still out there
Check it out, yo, I'm still out there, come on
Ayo, I'm out there, ayo, I'm still out there
Roots Crew to the, to the, to the, to the

[Verse 2: Black Thought]
Y'all know the name, I got game like an Evangelist
Relax to my man D'Angel-ist, who could ever cancel this?
Music growth, it's cancerous, not glamorous, yo
The lifestyle I embrace, to some, scandalous
I chop joke emcees like choke sandwiches
And backslap the snare drum open-handed
With my vocal, so I'm far from local
My peoples got to keep me in they focal
Perform Al Jarreau style (What?), now act like you know now
Surf the internet, inspect my profile
Return to menu if you miss this
Your girlfriend said my music is futuristic
Then kissed me on my neck, left marks of lipstick (Uh-huh)
Then came to the spot and we got lifted
I rip shit on the solo unassisted
Or with Malik and the Fifth clique, so y'all should keep your lips zipped
Y'all don't know what it's about, get en route
I hold it down with no doubt and sip Stout
And got the hot record out
Y'all need to let your necks snap back, check it out, word up
[Chorus]
Ayo I'm out there, ayo, I'm still out there
Worldwide, said, I'm still out there
Roots Crew forever out there
Yo, I'm still out there
What-what-what? Out there, you know what I'm sayin'?
Tariq out there, P-5-D out there
What-what? SP out there, know what I'm sayin'? (SP forever)
Philly out there, ayo, I'm still out there
SP to the, to the, to the, to the

[Verse 3: Black Thought]
Ayo, so what's the Fifth then? The million-dollar question
We veterans, lyrically threatenin' freshmen
Y'all lookin' at next year, I see the next ten
In front of me strategically, plan positionin'
Out there, steppin' into your world, I'm visitin'
Discography timeless, you keep listenin'
Within the crevices, these clones is missin' in action
Mysterious magnetic attraction with that thing
My melody like Nat King, and emcees is so uninteresting
Forever givin' y'all the next best thing
I give it to you like Pink Champale and Ink Bing
I drink Yuengling, JaRoots and ginseng
You testin' me, ock? Yo, what was you thinkin'?
You're buggin' off the energy the king bring
A delivery that you're forever remembering
[Chorus]
Ayo I'm out there, ayo, I'm still out there
Worldwide, what? Out there
It's The Roots, yo, we out there
Ayo, I'm still out there
Roots Crew, check it out, out there
Ayo, ayo, I'm out there, we infinitely out there
Worldwide, son, out there, check it out (SP)
Ayo, I'm out there (Ayo, we out there), ayo, I'm still out there (It's P5D)
What-what-what? Uh, uh (Roots Crew out there)
Check it out, it's like—
