Get Busy - Us3

I know you’ll never know the feelin' that I’m feelin'

A black Jew trying to break through the glass ceilin'

Light-skinned rapper with a lot of ambition

Making black music for the people that’ll listen

Isn’t it a novelty, an anomaly

You paid for a ticket, you can listen to the oddity’s virtuosity

When I’m rocking the mic

My pocket’s are light but still I’m provocative, right?

Hey, don’t try to tell me that my style ain’t tight

My rhythm enlightens other rappers and it just ain’t right

That I get more drama than the next MC

'Cos I’m not the average rapper up on MTV

So, you wanna put me to the test?

'Let's show the people who’s really the best

I don’t wanna battle you but if you insist

We can do this without written raps to spit

And just get busy, get busy, get busy

('Cos I don’t stop when I rock the spot)

(Because I don’t stop when I rock the spot)

Yo, who’s to say who’s better or worse

And who’s got the cleverest that’s never rehearsed?

Who deserves the prize get ready to work

'Cos you can’t win a battle with competitive words

Why does everybody wanna step to me?

You best believe I’m never gonna rest in peace

We got the crowd actin' as the referee

And they clap for whoever is the best MC

But who are they to judge our craft?

Maybe they just clap 'cos you’re makin' them laugh

And is that the real test of a dope MC?

What about rhymes and rhythms over this here beat?

Cos I’m ready to get it and set it in motion like the ocean

Into the commotion that’s hidden in rhythm and hocus pocus

I’m gone, I got a song, sing it along and you can feel it

As I get busy, get busy, get busy

('Cos I won’t stop when I rock the spot)

(And I won’t stop when I rock the spot)

I don’t wanna stop what I’m doin'

I just wanna rock to the music

But we got a lot of confusion

And we’re getting lost into music

If I had a wish I would use it

But I’ve only got an illusion

I can only find what I’m losin'

And I’m getting lost into music

Listen to all these thoughts and concepts

I speak the truth but the truth’s too complex

For you to grasp and I can’t explain it

I’m just a man even if I’m famous

What does it mean to be respected

When we are not truly perceptive

Live for today and gone tomorrow

Choose the direction you can follow

And get busy, get busy, get busy

(Because I won’t stop when I rock the spot)

(And I won’t stop when I rock the spot)

'Cos I don’t stop when I rock the spot

Because I don’t stop when I rock the spot

'Cos I won’t stop when I rock the spot

And I won’t stop when I rock the spot

Get busy
