[Verse 1: A-1]
One love until the planet Earth cease
The atmosphere quits or the asteroid hits
Or the nuclear war starts over random turf beefs
And the bombs fall on us like autumn's first leaves
Cuz when it's going down and people go underground
Hope I'm posted on land on a sandy surf beach
With a comfy ass chair, a meal I can share
And my deuces chunked up in the air for world peace
[Bridge: A-1]
(hold on)
You ain't gotta light a white candle if my heart seizes up from a drug I can't handle
Or gets hits with one slug from out the handle, pro-peace
Just tell the girls A-1 was a Thurl Beast
[Hook: A-1]
Still got it on deck like Christmas halls, and the touch screen looking like 6 missed calls
Can I get up? You know I gotta get up
Still walk around town with the dope, tight style, give a fuck about tomorrow - live life right now
You know I gotta get up. Think it's time to get up
And we be saying, everyday, everday, live like it's the last one
I'm switching lanes, switching lanes - put me in the fast one
And get up. You know I gotta get up
[Verse 2: A-1]
(I mean it's like)
I be at the mom and pop Burma noodle shop
Eating rare foods, that you never heard or knew about
Anywho, I'm trying to learn and do a lot so I gotta get mine
You shouldn't be concerned what I do or not
It's like to each his own, anybody treat you wrong
Put em on blast like their ass on the speakerphone
Any time we speaking on wax throw the speakers on
Back to back, run through all the tracks throw your sneakers on
Drink to your health, sink or swim
You'll sink if you cannot think for yourself, I got 50 fins
Hit the door, dont let your soul shrink for the wealth
If you only thinking about yourself, though, think again
Cuz if you sell-fish, then you tuna
What this that I smell - ah naw n***as stink again
I'm sitting on the brink to win
They said keep your eyes on the prize
Since then I never blinked again
[Bridge 2: A-1]
Get the visine, they be talking shit
But I be having dental hygience
Clearing up my mind
As if I had my mental dry cleaned
Still we fight for our right - Spike lee
How we living life? Do the right thing
[Hook: A-1]
Still got it on deck like Christmas halls, and the touch screen looking like 6 missed calls
Can I get up? You know I gotta get up?
Still walk around town with the dope, tight style, give a fuck about tomorrow - live life right now
You know I gotta get up. Think it's time to get up
And we be saying, everyday everday, live like it's the last one
I'm switching lanes, switching lanes - put me in the fast one
And get up. You know I gotta get up
[Verse 3: A-1]
You know we gotta get up out of bed cuz we fed up
Working for another man's bread til we dead is the set up
So we switching up the plan, take a stand get your head up
Out the clouds now before it gets stormy
This is for my hip hop heads with heat rocks before me
That spit the beatbox and wore reeboks before me
You living on the edge or you drowning
Shit I was slipping thru cracks, using my only wedge to get out
And now I use a sledgehammer when keys lock the doors
Last year they told me, please mop the floors
Wipe the windows on the fridge and restock the 40s
Now I'm trying to sort through three flocks of shorties
Probably see my walking all around in uyour college town
In the morning trying to get my wallet out the lost and found
Shit gets crazy when we rock a crowd
Nah, fuck it bring the hook back and knock it loud
[Hook: A-1]
Still got it on deck like Christmas cards, and the touch screen looking like 6 missed calls
Can I get up? You know I gotta get up?
Still walk around town with the dope, tight style, give a fuck about tomorrow - live life like now
You know I gotta get up. Think it's time to get up
And we be saying, everyday everday, live like it's the last one
I'm switching lanes, switching lanes - put me in the fast one
And get up. You know I gotta get up
Last thing -You ain't gotta light a white candle if my heart seizes up from a drug I can't handle
Or gets hits with one slug from out the handle, pro-peace
Just tell the world A-1 was a Thurl Beast
