The Show

The show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rockThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rock the showUh, and I'm still the one

Am I a poet or a prophet or a stone to build upon?

And what's the reason I still perform? Feed my children on

How I'm on a hustle from dusk 'till dawnWhere all the love and the trust is gone

My eyes wider than a baby that just was born

Fightin' a war they ain't pay me enough to join

Behind a phrase they was crazy enough to coinYou kiddin' me? The pursuit of happiness, life, liberty

And all type of necessities they not givin' me

I put my body in jeopardy 'cause I'm committed

Even though they try to stifle your man creativityThey got hopes and plans of gettin' rid of me

I hit 'em like Ethiopia hit up Italy

Swift as the bullet that killed King and Kennedy

You know the battle is off to infinity nowThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rockThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rock the showI remember The Show like Doug E. where people quiet was ugly

Yellin', "Get money", now we're showin', we're dummy

Still doin' shows where the spots be bummy

Roaches in the dressin' room, I'm thinkin' of a better roomMaybe The Upper, where my people won't suffer

The leather gets tougher, we drive like a trucker through the night

For every wrong, makin' two rights

And use mics to reach new heights, the blue lightsFollow, I guess it's the scent of Chicago

That make 'em wanna mess with my tomorrow

In these borrowed days, the rhyme and the mind that pays

The world is a show, you define your stageOne, two, it's live so you can't undo

No sleep 'cause then your dreams won't come true

And every one's like a broad that we run through

Each finger, this ain't gonn' stop so we just gonn' continueThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rockThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rock the showThe Ernest Hemingway of B-boy poems

They can never take the pen away and leave Roy Jones

Pushing a black [Incomprehensible] in a new time zone

Nigga knowin' every nuance wit' two eyes closedThe life I chose, more of a mission

I make a crowd convulse and act on impulse and intuition

I've seen the future, listen, believe the superstition

I keep spittin' 'til it's a truce or crucifixionIm at home in the pressure zone, weakness is never shown

Let alone I'm a man made of mere flesh and bone

I can't help that my heart beat as a metronome

And I've acquired a taste that's upper echelonLyrical professional, maniac megalo

Plate in my head that spin the way the record go

And break it down like it's the walls of Jericho

If they don't know by know they prob'ly never knowThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rockThe show, the show, it must go on

The show, the show, it must go on

I can't stop, I won't stop

I will not, I will rock the show

The show, the show
