The Show (Must Go On) The Roots (Ft. Common & Dice Raw)

[Hook: Dice Raw]
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 ride
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 ride
The show

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Uh, 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?
Feeding my children on, how I'm on a hustle from dusk 'til dawn
Where 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 coin
You kiddin me? The pursuit of happiness, life, liberty
And all type o' necessities they not givin me
I put my body in jeopardy cause I'm committed
Even though they try to stifle ya man creativity
They got hopes and plans o' 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 on for infinity, now
