Reflection Eternal

Reflection Eternal - Africa Dream lyrics

Your rating:

If you can talk you can sing
 If you can walk you can dance
 That's an old proverb from Zimbabwe
 You know what I mean
 If you can talk you can sing
 If you can walk you can dance
 Yeah, and the trumpet is blown
 Yeah, alright, C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon
 Alright, Wooh!

 (talking)
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, uh, one more time
 Yo, anybody can tell you how it is
 What we putting down right here is how it is and how it could be
 Reflection Eternal for real
 And with that-

 These cats is no match
 Plus they lack a certain knack for rapping
 Chasing but they never catch the wagon
 Like rerunning what's hap'ning
 Since back when
 They had potty issues and snotty tissues, we been rockin'
 Think you poppin' next year nobody will miss you
 My thoughts is too advanced for the artists on these labels
 They come sweeter than sabal and softer than mashed potatoes
 I tried to told you the rhymes run over emcees like Land Rovers
 Took 'em back in time like Sam Kofa, Sam Kofa

 We stand over the Atlantic, looking broad like a man's shoulders
 The fire is trapped in a belly, ready to pop like canned soda
 We outlasting, from middle passage
 Touched down in New York
 Cincinnatay! Big Ohio status what you thought
 Money it's classic these bastards try to treat us like cattle
 So life has been a constant battle, battle
 Rising above the crabs in the barrel
 Way too used to living in death's shadow
 We stay on point like the best arrow, arrow
 We hit the target accurate
 Star shit, back it up
 When we hit town, y'all niggas pack it up
 That's how we get down, straight smash it up
 Like a whip, hydroplaning
 Hydro on the brain and maintaining
 Game changing into subtle shit, we remain blatant
 Yo, got to tell you to your face
 You get replaced in this game, by Kweli
 Place the face with the name
 These cats drink champagne and toast to death and pain
 Like slaves on a ship talking about who got the flyest chain

 (talking)
 Yo, we the reflection of our ancestors
 We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us
 Cause your spirit possessed us
 Yo, you blessed us
 Thank you very much (7x)

 Yo, we the reflection of our ancestors
 We'd like to thank you for the building blocks you left us
 Cause your spirit possessed us
 Yo, you blessed us
 Thank you very much
 God bless you (7x
