On And On - Pete Rock & C.L. Smooth

[CL Smooth] 
The nightcap was exiled  steadily profiled 
as the underachievin non believin can't stand to reason 
Where's your daddy boy   to categorize the drinker 
Misunderstood to make the ordeal linger 
They label me a problem child who can't cope 
Hangin by a thread  yes a very thin rope 
Inevitably  can never be the man can I tell ya 
Visualize and memorize him in a cellar 
Well tally ho, pip-pip, my fam's gonna catch a fit 
My father lookin like he wanna bust my lip 
But that was never good for my health 
So I take the shovel out my pocket and dig myself 
Now when I look at the man in the mirror 
I see things much more clearer my Lord 
I'm not that popular, less than a dollar 
but the ? I pack can make you holla

I said, what you don't know could make a whole new world 
Man.. listen! I'm set to sabotage premonition 
Your propaganda, crooked type of version 
Some of the things I bring, you're babblin non-person 
Imbedded in my character, rebel nostalgia 
Uncommon valor who'd rather 
have no man-made religion or sect 
But try to believe what you conceive may be half correct 
I shed light, to show the path in sight 
Cause a man who can't treat you right can't teach you right 
In front of your eyes, what a surprise, and let the nature 
rise, just for the girls and the guys 
A Phi-Slamma-Jamma when you wear a bandanna 
Peace to Pop Dukes, and long live Nana 
The formula's reality, Pete Rock's the storm 
Together, forever, yes G we got it goin on
