[Intro]
Where everything is music
Don't worry about saving these songs
And if one of our instruments breaks, it doesn't matter
We have fallen into the place where everything is music
The strumming and flute notes rise into the atmosphere
And even if the whole world's harp should burn up
There will be hidden instruments playing
[Verse 1: Blu]
Uh, see I can't explain how it hit me
But from the beginning, it stained my memory
I seen The Fat Boys beatboxing and talking rhythmically
When I was three or four, but it came out when I was born
I remember one Sunday morn, seeing Michael Jackson perform
They tried to dress me like him next morning before I went to school
Nobody noticed me, but I still thought I was cool
That all started with Michael Jackson, I can't describe the attraction
But my dad gave me LL's "Bad" before I had Michael Jackson's
My papa was giving me rap back then
Now he got the nerve to act surprise that I rap (What?)
My favorite track back then was "Wild Wild West"
How You Like Me Now and "Bad" was my first two cassettes
I remember seeing "Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z." when I was ten
I thought he looked like Superman, so I popped it in
I skipped around, uh, I took it out, word up
I was too young to know what that was about
'Cause it was all about "Oochie Coochie" by MC Brains
My papa bang MC Breed, I thought they was the same thing
I remember one afternoon, my mama slapped me with a spoon
For saying I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom (Boy!)
Still it wasn't cool when she went and married a reverend
And he told me all secular music is off limits, I said
