Same Ol' Thing Lyrics


Check my style out
Life situations are the ones, I speak about
It seems cats now-a-days we gettin' introduced to courage
Don't get discouraged 'cause my words will threw her like flourishWe got the bounty, we from the queen's county
Overlookin' things like a Rushmore Mounty
And got no other choice except to get a little love
We rise above, we be fittin' like a gloveThe pain in my heart is getting induced by joy
We have no other boy but to bring the B-boy
There's nothin' on this erb that can end still fear
The locomotives, puttin' my thing in gearI only have the fear of God and that's taqwa
You need binaca, your trap is blazing like blanca
I got the lethal you couldn't put a match to it
Let me know yo we could do it like Stu itMind over matter action is needed
When the big one not to be super seeded
Responsibility is somethin' I can't deny
The illegallies is Narcist replyMost cats scrambled to do 'cause they want to
But on the kick rising in the past on in prompt to
My lily's hot like two links in the skillet

A room filled with speakers one stage, watch me kill itNow we should resort from the cradle to the grave
Round and opposition gettin' twisted like Super Dave
You be looking, bub, just like Uncle Jesse
Don't make the scene messy 'cause it'll jump that's word Aunt BetsyProfound sentences to pure lyric dems
Some of my friends be like a people with stems
Folks be on the chase for this cheddar
Thinkin' it makes your life better but it can make you ass outAnd when I'm at a show, chicks never pass out
We got the noise to make the whole mash out
A Tribe Called Quest make the party go down
Plus we make posite divots to fill up all your crownsLyrics come to cats like a hot and cold flash
So can come with ease if four and a smash
Held the fort down like the Justice League all the super friends
But in the world turn more spinsBrothers walk the street with the ill pace face
City life breeze contempt for each race
All pages due to a law and I should say it
It' the abstract, motor, vader making things, making things betterPuttin' things in perspective to rock and roll
'Cause you know this kid is got wild soul
Of every kind of drama like stars out pirhanna
Cold like ice jazzed hot like a saunaIt's the has verse the the half guess who's arrived in the hood
Exposing all wrongs, it's all good
Yo word up, hip-hop is live like a wire
Let's get a little bit before the whole joint expireI got to stress it again, you see it's for my Ken
And all my babies, children of the world, no maybe's
To you we got to move through and push through
Because we got to make it happen keep the true blueIt's like that, so much confusion goin' on
So much confusion goin' on
Inside all mine, inside all mine
So much confusion goin' on, uh, uh, uh, uhBut everything will be fine, so much confusion goin' on
So much confusion goin' on
Gotta make it alright, gotta make it alright
Gotta elevate your mindElevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Elevate your mind
Elevate your mind

A Tribe Called Quest was an influential hip hop group of the 1990s, originally formed in Queens, New York City in 1985. The group is composed of Q-Tip, Phife Dawg, and DJ Ali Shaheed Muhammad. A fourth member, Jarobi White, was an intermittent collaborator appearing on their first album, but he left the group soon after, although he is mentioned as a 'sometimes' member on their third album liner notes. Along with De La Soul, the group was a central part of the Native Tongues Posse, and enjoyed the most commercial success out of all the groups to emerge from that collective.

Q-Tip and Phife had grown up together in Queens, and met Muhammad in high school. The group's name was coined by The Jungle Brothers, whose members attended the same school. Soon after, the group began performing live and recording on a local label. The group became a part of the Native Tongues family, a Hip-Hop artist collective also consisting of the groups Jungle Brothers, De La Soul and Black Sheep.

At the time of their inception, A Tribe Called Quest was unique within the hip-hop community for eschewing gangsta rap and macho posturing. Their lyrics focused on abstract and social issues such as the word "nigger", date rape and consumerism. Musically, the group helped pioneer the jazz-rap style (along with groups such as Gang Starr and De La Soul). They made their studio debut in 1990 with People's Instinctive Travels and the Paths of Rhythm. Though this album was critically acclaimed and lead to a strong fan following, their next album, The Low End Theory (1991) was a massive artistic success, appearing on several best of the year lists. It is considered one of the most important hip-hop albums to date. The Low End Theory was followed by the equally strong Midnight Marauders (1993), while Beats, Rhymes and Life (1996) and The Love Movement (1998) did not meet with as much success.

Following The Love Movement, the group disbanded in 1998. Q-Tip and Phife Dawg went on to pursue solo careers while Muhammad co-founded the R&B group Lucy Pearl.

Recently, there have been rumors of a reunion between the trio, ignited by a spate of group concert apperances around the US, but their most recent appearance was a Bumbershoot, a three-day music festival in Seattle in 2006 and there has been little news of an upcoming album, leading some to believe that the rumors may be unfounded.
