Blackalicious - Passion lyrics

Your rating:

(feat. Rakaa Iriscience (Dilated Peoples))

[Cuts by Chief Xcel and DJ Babu]



An open microphone can be dangerous

Let's tune in on two of the greatest MCs out there



[Chorus]

[Rakaa, Gift of Gab]



Passion

The will to win, the spark within

Passion

The strength within the hearts of men

Passion

The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion

To play through pain and love the game

Passion

To break the chain and blaze the flame

Passion

The fight for rights to love your life, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion



[Rakaa]

Propaganda, positive propositions

Politician, musician and a triple optician

Still part of my missions to slaughter the opposition

Critics that don't get it, I tell 'em to stop bitchin'

I do without blacks, I've done it without cash

Strictly for the love of the art - that's passion

Flashin', rappin' or jammin' or soundblastin'

When Quannum meets Expansion, this is what happens



[Gift of Gab]

Runnin' through the jungle with a flare gun

Arrow-arms, zoning out my mind

Like I was hooked on hero-ine

Take the fire, turn it up and blaze whole forest down

Pullin from within' the inner insane warrior

California to the District of Columbia

Hella high octane, lookin' through a lazy eye

All ablaze, fire, flames, lightin' up the sky

Runnin' through the burnin' sun, yellin'

Ride, nigga ride, nigga ride..



[Chorus]

[Rakaa, Gift of Gab]



Passion

The will to win, the spark within

Passion

The strength within the hearts of men

Passion

The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion

To play through pain and love the game

Passion

To break the chain and blaze the flame

Passion

The fight for rights to love your life, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion



[Rakaa]

Desire, the fire that inspires

I don't state facts, I state buildings, like empires

Passion

The journey, the learnin', the time-turnin'

The searchin', the mind yearnin' to wake and find morning

Passion

The ladies they love the long-lasting

Asking for action, braced for satisfaction



[Gift of Gab]

Passion

The black-skinned African jazz-men of the half in Aspen

Relaxed, gettin' my back rubbed



[Rakaa]

I'm still here, I've seen cats get killed here

I've seen cats make a mil but millionaires still fear

You can buy airplanes but you can't buy cheers

Blackalicious, Dilated, vibratin' your ears



[Gift of Gab]

Sent vibrations for years, I've been waiting for years

I've been patient for years, we ain't playin' this year

We hold stake in this here, it ain't safe for this year

We in the zone watch next level, takin' it there, this is



[Chorus]

[Rakaa, Gift of Gab]



Passion

The will to win, the spark within

Passion

The strength within the hearts of men

Passion

The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion

To play through pain and love the game

Passion

To break the chain and blaze the flame

Passion

The fight for rights to love your life, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion



Babu!

Let's listen to this recipe for-

Chief Xcel-

The most astonishing-

Soul-

New seeds of wisdom, craft, and skill

(Check it out, y'all)

Listen now, to this classic moment from-

DJ's, around the world, DJ's around the world



[Gift of Gab]

Had a rough week, it got beat by passion

Saddled up, tweaked off a beat, started mashin'

Matador Rica, the heat from the heater

In her world, dwellin', hear the world

Yellin' for a leader



[Rakaa]

I don't bother with the dealers, I take it to the lab

It's Rakaa chillin' with Babs, Xcel, Gift of Gab

I grab mics and fans gravitate, I can't waste it

My whole life, I wanted it so bad, I could taste it



[Chorus]

[Rakaa, Gift of Gab]



Passion

The will to win, the spark within

Passion

The strength within the hearts of men

Passion

The drive to press, to strive for best, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion

To play through pain and love the game

Passion

To break the chain and blaze the flame

Passion

The fight for rights to love your life, to rise

You've just arrived the quest is driven through

Passion
