Johnny Is Dead by Q-tip
(verse I)
Sometimes I phase out when I look at the screen
And I think about my chance for me to intervene
And its up to me to bring back the hopeful
feeling in the music that you can quote
not saying that I hate it
'cause yeah, I kinda dig it
But what good is an ear if a Q-Tip isn't in it
So this year get in
and inform your friend
your boy from the hood
is on that shit again
he's upped the degrees
and dropped the mercury
to splash on the mass
from low to upperclass
and when the record spins
it sometimes blows a wind
a fickleness of fans
they sometimes hate again
they always bring up Tribe by me
could not survive, I mean
this is my mans, I mean
this is my fams
and here's somethin' new
it's front row for you
so don't misconstrue
its tribal and true
my dudes who hustle hard
will stop your repetoire
as long as you can see
its you who's stayin' free
'cause life is filled with 'cerns
keep pills and little burns
and shit, I'm fuckin' up I mean
I'm trippin' out
but still there is a void
and people get annoyed
let's focus on the feel
before we get a deal
