Reach Us Lyrics


Dilated, dilated, dilated
Yo, I kill Ciphers, that's how I went from good to God
It ain't perfect, yet n' still the hood is ours
And it's worthy, good people here work hard
But the news really only shows crooks and stops
It hold you for commercials and talk you into buyin' shit
I was taught to learn from life and learn from my environment
Rocka walks the street as the son of a preacher
Who's the son of a preacher with people tryin' to reach ya
I visualize the rise and realize the fallin'
High as time flies I recognize the callin'
Went from lavish life to savage life back to lavish life
But never average, might be caught like Christ for the sacrifice
I still roll up my trees
For modesty I meditate and roll up my sleeves
We adjustin', re-adjust
I said I touch the world and the world said, "Reach us"
Reach us, open up the world people like me and you

You know these days ain't gettin' any longer
Now It's do or die, now or never, time to hit the street
We on the move, ride out with shit to prove
Everywhere we go they like, "It's a green light for you"
Got lyrics about pleasure some about pain
From Southern Cali where they say it never rains
It's different dames that make me count blessings
We burn for our peeps that ain't here as we sing, reach us
In God we trust, no doubt that's a must
A hundred times see us but still catch the rush
And when we fly bless the sky, let your mission unfold
You in the car we in the bus bless the road
How could I reach you if I wasn't real
Might have to go before you really studied the flow
And understand the deal
This year fuck before mad, loud and clear
You know that's the truth they can't, reach us
Reach us
Say this, 'cause I mean it from the heart
Reach us
Yo, what happened to me, nah, what happened to you
The crew ain't changed the numbers the sames
The lack and the fools, the check for Cali dimes
Down to Georgia peaches, at our shows to book us
Carra Lewis is how you reach us
Got ho's girls I see got queens
Got friends got enemies and in-betweens
Teacher are students, students are teachers
Low key or prestigious I reach you, you reach us
I see lines around the block in the snow it's cold now
I see people gettin' hot when the show is sold out
I see dime pieces fight to the front to rap along
To every word, word for word to every song, reach us
I raise every head and every arm
In every jam from every stage we stand on
People climbin' over barricades and still
I tell security chill, they only tryin' to, reach us
Reach us, reach us, reach us, reach us, reach us

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Dilated Peoples is a hip-hop group that has achieved great fame in the underground hip-hop community, although their only real mainstream success was the song This Way, a 2004 collaboration with Kanye West.

DJ Babu (from the DJ crew Beat Junkies), Evidence, and Rakaa joined together in 1992 in Los Angeles, CA and released Third Degree and Work The Angles, which were quickly established as favorites in the underground scene and among rap critics. They eventually signed to Capitol and in 2000 released The Platform, to more critical acclaim. Their sophomore set Expansion Team was released in 2001, led by the Alchemist-produced single Worst Comes To Worst, which sampled from Mobb Deep's Survival Of The Fittest. Their third album, Neighborhood Watch, was released in 2004 and debuted at #55 on USA's Billboard 200 Albums Chart. In addition to the Kanye West-produced single, This Way, it also featured the single Who's Who?, which was also included as a track on the Need for Speed: Underground and SSX 3 soundtracks, and peaked at #35 on the UK Singles Chart.

In 2006, they returned with the single Back Again, produced by The Alchemist. The trio's fourth album, 20/20, debuted on February 21, 2006.

In 2007 they released The Release Party. This package included a feature-length documentary on DVD as well as EP featuring new songs and remixes. The film, released through Decon, is a celebration of the release from their contract with Capital.
