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.. Living Legends.. 

Peace to E.Q.
