Robots Lyrics

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
Say, yeah, yeahWake up to bow down
To the almighty dollar, pay your homage again
Boxed in, so get down
Buried, now you're livin' undergroundDo you wish you could be amongst the aristocrats
Who sip wine and look down
On the gangsta's, hustla's and things
Who make it rain and shit on the fortuneless
All in the same game struggling to get up, yeah(Know when, know what)
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah

(Are you a robot?)So you a baby born with teeth
Ready to speak, the sign the end is near
His first words, uh, uh are, "Where's daddy?"
Can you hear the world stand still?When she looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
She looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
She looked in his eyes, oh, oh, oh
Baby, I don't know, know where's the president(Know when, know what)
Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Are you a robot?)Say, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Know when, know what)
Uh, yeah
(Are you a robot?)The information age is here
Then you better read the omen
There's something 'bout a natural disaster
War will never act hereA growin' thirst for power
As we approach the final hour
Monkey see, monkey do
What are you gonna do?What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?
What are you gonna do?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Bilal

Bilal (born Bilal Sayeed Oliver on August 23, 1979, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA) is a soul musician and member of the musical collective known as Soulquarians. In 2001, his debut album — 1st Born Second — was released on the Interscope record label.

Bilal's classical training at the Mannes Music Conservatory in New York was instrumental to his conversance with Jazz, voice, and big band arrangements. It has also been reported that he is capable of performing opera in seven languages and writes both music and lyrics.

In 1995, Bilal encountered Faulu Mtume, and his brother, Damu Mtume (sons to James Mtume and founders of Moyo Entertainment) at a barber's shop in Philadelphia. His plans to produce film scores was shelved after he handed the brothers a demo recording; they were so impressed that they successfully convinced him to record commercially.

Bilal has also frequently collaborated and performed with several neo-soul and alternative hip hop artists, including Common, Erykah Badu, Talib Kweli, and The Roots. He also covered Radiohead's "High & Dry" for the 2006 Radiohead tribute, Exit Music: Songs With Radio Heads. Bilal appears in Dave Chappelle's Block Party.

His sophomore full-length recording, Love for Sale is rumored to have been shelved after being leaked on the internet. Despite no official release as of yet, Love for Sale has become an underground classic.
