SPEED OF LIFE
Hook
sometimes its warp speed..sometimes its slow motion
sometime we fall down to stands of devotion
regardless of hurricane ..sunshine or rain
moving at the speed of life thru love and pain (2x)
JAROBI:
Yo..I'm moving at the speed of life..i'm hoping that my next move makes me.. alright
in a tunnel i can see that light.. still gotta sleep with that safety off..right
airtight alibi..explains why i keep what i think inside
if i said more would it seem like it try? I'll take the blame for it
Signs are all there..dig it, I own it.. the only sure thing of change i've noticed
my mind still spins with triple the focus..despite being plagued with plenty neurosis
every word heard is a nerdy hood opus ..i only poke with some semblance of closeness
my neurosis keeps me explosive.. if you want heat... Gold D and Ro the poets

DRES:
Yo..its like the worlds gone crazy man..New Yorks a trip.. my dudes in parallel buildings claiming Blood and Crip... i guess i'm a blip.. see i bounce a fine line
under the ocean to above the sky to find mine.. divine time..
each and every muscle a member ..of youth runnin the street come from a hustle agenda
it hurt..as over time was blessed..as less would lurk.. the perk..had a job
but bring work to work.. the block before the crib..stop work my work
with speed..bleed the rock and made it work berserk
fast forward in the way that only life can move
and lil man look up to me not knowing i can lose
don't mean i will..baby chill..my style illy ill
plus i'm really real.. what darkness never concealed
move at the speed of life..aye yo.. you know what they say
time has a way of leveling out the playing field

ROCK ON - feat Range Da Messenger
DRES:
I seen heaven and hell..rose up and fell.. rose up again to jail with no bail
bids with no mail in a waterless well.. copped a cheat sheet hoping to pass.. but still failed
so goes the tale of wind with no sail.. to see brail with a fine eye for detail..
females..so fresh that be stale..and who could lead the frail with strength to no avail
Seen highs and lows..bought and stole clothes.. seen loaves of bread that froze friends and foes
seen the bright light that make men lose sight.. found my way in the dark just to re spark my plight
Paid the high cost..found love and lost..and i work overtime so i can fire my boss..said i been slipped
its the truth..the kids wept..but i now skip.. and despite my missteps .. I rock on
HOOK
I rock on and uh..i rock on and uh.. i rock on and uh..i rock on and uh.. i rock on and uh.. i rock on and uh..i rock on and on and on and on and on and uh (2x)
JAROBI:
I got jet set women..they offer me favors... my face is a thousand lipstick flavors
drunk from the rush..we picked up on stages..not knowing that that tribe vibe shit was contagious
Ro Cologne is now heaven scented..documented halos that i dented..hotel pillows all chocolate minted..
time to steam up..cover up those vents kid
Talent endless..brainwaves tremendous..destroy stages anywhere you send us..
see Robi One.. see fun come.. test Robi One.. ambulance come..
saute to flambe..i walk with fire.. knowing that i can't burn and won't get tired..
my aim is to be a number one supplier..and i won't stop rockin till i retire
HOOK
JAROBI:
Nowaday, its like i'm an unsolved mystery..people run up concerned with my history..
i just take it they concerned and they missin me.. cannot front yo..that shit used to get to me
but..sheer resolve..tyrannies crumble.. repeat the mantra .. just be calm..be humble..
a deadly flow..my sign is cancer..signed Jarobione.. a hip hop trivia answer
DRES:
I may daze ya like Frazier..the flow fluid with flavor..blaze ya major and properly..
pardon..peace to Planet Asia..I spit man.. when you ain't seen Dres do his thang..
said you can get with ying or yang..
The effervescent i come crescent the beat with sweet crescendos..in mid air suspend those..
spit cool as mentos.. Jarobi ya boogie..addin butter to the batter..for a fortune like the cookie..haha..and thats thatta
HOOK
CATCH MYSELF
JAROBI:
Why am i subject to envy and hate? Cause i fall down 7 times and get up 8?
They spread their ill wishes..well let me be great..burn incense and candles
to their God Prostrate..
they think they're unanswered prayers are gonna seal my fate..
Evitan.. inevitable.. baby just wait
I cook in the kitchen..cook in the booth.. sizzle in the bedroom, honey thats the truth
They try to impugn my name.. sully my rep
can't walk in my shoes.. i have unmatchable steps
my verbal venom..cajoles the women..
voice sounds good on some NS - 10M's
They watching my actions..pick apart my words..
i see them hovering like carrier birds
While you sittin there plotting.. wishin to get with me.. I'm protecting us from the fate of Antigony
HOOK
Catch myself...sometimes i gotta catch myself.. sometimes i gotta catch myself.. sometimes i gotta catch myself.. I might as well arrest myself.. sometimes i gotta catch my self..sometimes i gotta catch myself
Res - Ya never gonna know..how i roll..will i show.. they all wanna know..where i stay..where i go..ya never gonna know..all i know..ya better hit the floor.. thats all ya need to know... so whatchu wanna know
DRES:
While cats are playing footsie in a french chateau .. the brand Evitan slams the next plateau..
get back joe..it's natural.. doin what work for us.. got ya stuck in a stupor rockin super superfluous..
and if honey got it wrong..right away..don't play.. i'm one of those could get more ass than your ass
could give away... allot em to foreign affairs.. Hillary Rodham.. it's the brother that smack a booty the color they shoe bottom...
Rappers are chum..here comes a killer whale.. asperity a rarity.. i assess and assail
Its the heir to the air with flair.. don't despair.. the pair in your ears compare to none of theirs..
supercilious.. rockin with imperious I .. stand out and glow..each night.. fire fly..
not for nothing .. look for something with the need to grow.. thru the highs and lows..at times ya need to know..i gotta

JAROBI:
M.C.'s make songs on some jewels and coupe shit.. i used their c.d. covers.. to bury and scoop shit
hard to contain.. Ro's a beast off leash - you howl at the moon.. i'm animal style on beats
I'm in and out treat booths just like they drive thru's .. its true.. they don't serve the custy's like we do
you'll never know where i am.. put your map on your shelf.. advancing on the wrong shit...catch yourself
DRES:
Some people say we cocky.. i say that they should suck it..cause the second we touch the mic.. the audio's abducted.. nobody can unplug it.. Evitan..that pure.. i'm that sure..you'll keep coming back..it's that raw.. its deadly..my medley steadily..erupts and readily..conducts my melody..for bucks it better be..
the flux is heavenly..deluxe with weaponry.. it sucks..sometime..i really gotta

MOON - STARS & SUN
DRES:
I'm the moon thats had enough..I shine bright for all.. I lay low everyday and i pray for nightfall
In synch with the wind.. you might hear the chime.. the result of when me and mother nature combine..
beautifully undefined.. that forever reminds the spark to leave to marks that which could never be mine
I'm the moon thats had enough..no friend of the cloud..that bowed..and never allowed me feel proud
To keep it real..how..could a friendship last? Poetically I say forget it..and just let it pass
So bright..be the light..i emit each night..that i won't win because..cause i'll win despite
the lack of atmosphere... i descent from space.. through missteps and all..present the same face
My tide will bring change..that's the meaning of pull.. said i'm the moon thats had enough..point blank.. I'm full
I'm worth more.... I'm worth more
HOOK by BOOTSY COLLINS
JAROBI:
I provide light guide captains on maiden voyages/ My history be more ancient than Helen of Troy's is/ my formations subject for human study/ And plus just try to make a wish without me/ Parts of me are felt like Orion's belt/ They're using me to predict when the ice will melt/ My presence is felt see how I twinkle for ya/ And at night with no light they say I'm beautiful/ I dwell in a celestial zone/ Governments spend billions to invade my home/ See archers, water bearers and scales of truth/ Me tatted across the sky if you need some proof/ Personalities affected by how I move/ even when you don't see me I'm shining dude/ When you wake up in the morning baby doll I'm gone/ You'll see me next time when the lights are on.
I'm worth more... I'm worth more

RAH DIGGA:
Them heat rays like lasers thru the paper..burn your ass up..better do yourself a favor
guard your chest - strap your best vest - made out the best tef - and use spf - Rah
Its all in the name..giving you life.. with a little bit of rain - feeding my seeds..turn a plant to a plane
watching him grow..call it food for the brain
Such a cold world..i come warm it up...many have tried, but can't figure out my formula..
might hurt your cornea - rap is gettin cornier - roads gettin stormier - yea - they pray for me to come out
chasing them rainbows..when they see the sun out - spazzin on them hecklers..none of ya'll matching this
molecular..getting to close could be the death of ya
I'm worth more... I'm worth more

Euphoric.. whatever ya call it .. your zone moving forward - High on life..aint nobody in my way.. feeling good.. Mortimer, Winthrop and Billy Ray
*under this* Feeling Good - Looking Good - Feeling Good - Looking Good - Looking Good - Feeling Good - Looking Good
JAROBI:
I write euphoric passages my words soothe and placate/ Clear my throat and what comes out never less than great/ I heard from the rafters "Hey J he can get with ya/ He couldn't come close burned by my heat signature/ Feels good to be possessed by something sonic/ Beats are the elixir mix my voice it's something tonic/ Consume frequently more perhaps/ If your tired of those emcees with those preschool raps/ Inhale the beat quickly metabolize/ Don't believe me? Just look at my eyes/ I'm fond of the kitty call me "catnip J"/ they're either rubbing on me or looking my way/ That's because heat transference is their preference/ Wanna know how he's hot just use this as your reference/ Not enough chile please I got plenty/ Ro your new favorite emcee if you ain't have any!

It's like they ride..collide.. to never ride.. i think they're drunk... Jarobi, Craig G and Dres, now tell me who'd of thunk

Explosive plates got cities in catatonic states... we goin ape..smokin luvlee.. planet of the grapes
Not competition.. i'm demolition .. my niggas know this... notice we run thru cats for green..Osmosis..oh shit
