[Intro]
- "Tribe Called Quest"
- "Clearly it's the bomb shit, so recognise"
- "Gritty little something- s- something on the New York street"
- "The five foot assassin"
- "Phife Di-Dawg- Di-Dawg"
- "Tribe Called Quest"
- "Special for the ear"
- "Who's that?"
- "We on Award Tour, with-"
- "Ali Shaheed Muhammad"
- "Causing rambunction"
- "To the fader- fader- fader"
- "Check it out"
- "Tribe Called Quest"
- "You know the transaction"
- "So pay attention"
- "Run and tell your dad The Abstract"
- "Q-Tip"
- "Is in the house"
[Verse 1: Q-Tip]
In this American metropolis filled with MC's
A Tribe Called Quest came to drop jewels wit' ease
Plus make you party, we do this music thing for everybody
Black, White, Latino and Asian, we cold raisin'
The stakes of hip-hop to a new plateau
To bridge gaps in generations for future plantations
A god-fearin' folk cos we all from the yolk
Of one breed, one seed, to good goals we proceed
Nowadays I strive to be a very good influence
Even though not too long ago I was a truant
Now I'm droppin' it on this and many broad topics
From man's obsession with money to holy prophets
Like Mohammed, yo, you know the scene is so freaky
Enemies they denounce me and my own try to sweep me
Now I got hip-hop acts posin' like fat cats
Lex and a Rolex, Moet and a top hat
But what about your contract, slick? Is you proper?
It's time we turned the tables of this hip-hop fable
I be strivin yo', tryna bang these joints out my skillet
And fulfil it, think about these kids, we can't kill it
