Jurassic 5 - Gotta Understand lyrics

Your rating:

[Soul sample cut]

"You might wanna say it" Testing "O, Ya got to understand"



[Chorus:]

"what ya gotta" speak the truth for real

"you might want to say ?" "you got to understand"

We trying to tell you the deal from our perspective

The J5 collective will wreck cuz you

"You got to understand" keep it together and try

"you might want to say ?" but you "you got to understand"

We're more than meets the third eye, words fly

Reppin' from the bird's eye view



[Akil:]

I ain't hating I just heard better

Up the ante on the game and apply the pressure

Understand I was a fan

Before I was a member of your favorite rap band

Understand that I'm still a fan



[Soup:]

And you can keep playing after the fact

Related to the game and came after crack

Cuz every nigga I know is out ta get a plaque

So why you wanna go and do that, huh?



[Chali 2na:]

I don't know man cuz we see fiends who dream c.r.e.a.m

Reppin' the west through special effects and green screens

And it seems you need to be the one to flash that cannon

Or sign the autographs till the last cat's standing



[Marc 7even:]

Brother pass that action, and your trashin' is real

Your only way of coming up is probably inking a deal

While your thinking the skills, some are thinking the mills

In a never-ending quest ta get the house on the hill

AND THAT'S REAL



[Chorus]



[Akil:]

I need some understanding in this world between me and my girl

She want the diamonds and the pearls to be a part of my world

Twenty four-sev, but love don't pay the rent

So love me when I'm home and cherish the moment



[Chali 2na:]

Uh-Huh

Cuz some of you women are men's mirrors

I know some women who dodge balls like Ben Stiller

Please understand, it's not to offend or seem bitter

But every queen, need a king wit her



[Soup: singing]

Ms. Thing I don't know, but ever I leave you ready to go

My Momma told me about how it flow

But I didn't wanna listen but she told me so

Now if it ever came to the bank account

Who'd ya pack ya things and get up and bounce

These the type of things that I be thinking about

To all my other fellas "you got to understand"



[Chorus]



[Chali 2na:]

And all the times I tried ta do ?what this wanna god do?

It's cuz I see the world from the Artist eye view

You live life the next part is you die, too

And there's no one on this earth it doesn't apply to



[Soup:]

Now that's true, cuz every single day I live

I'm obligated just ta say it like it T-I is

And I ain't gon talk about no cat whose decision is poor

Trust me man my hand is just as dirty as yours



[Marc 7even:]

Either they like you, or they hype you, it's a cycle

Choices that we make in the vi-tal

Cuz in the blink of an eye it can all go awry

And the next man will quickly take your title



[Akil:]

Yeah, between me and myself and all of these things

Understanding is a theme when we doing our thing

From the job to my queen and chasing my dream

The whole world needs a little understanding



[Chorus: w/ad-libs from Akil]
