The Kleptones Closer To The Boxer - 1150 Lyrics

It might be true that there are six billion people in the world and counting, nevertheless, what you do makes a difference. It makes a difference, first of all, in material terms, it makes a difference to other people and it sets an example. So in short I think the message here is...

Just think about what you know
And what you don't, and what you won't
For the time right now since your date of birth
Now ask yourself what it's really worth

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises

All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

First of all, let's clear the air
So any ear listening to hear
Can understand the words we're saying
[?], you'll be scratching, my man
Ok, now work on point for the serious joint
On the serious joint I must anoint
And cleanse the soul of the musical whole
'Cause our ways these days are out of control
I mean n____s is fake with the moves they make
And refuse to make words to elevate
I know I ain't no saint, drink blue, smoke [?]
But in my heart, this is art, so I front like it ain't
See, this is industry, they don't care about we
'Cause as soon as we don't make the cash money
And now our a__ gets dropped 6 floors without a top
Now I ask you, how can it stop?

Just think about what you know
And what you don't, and what you won't
For the time right now since your date of birth
Now ask yourself what it's really worth
Just think about what you know
And what you don't, and what you won't
For the time right now since your date of birth
Now ask yourself what it's really worth

Just a little bit of crunk with the muck appeal
Mix up the Henny crowd with the Ally McBeal
That's the recipe for this work of art
Jay Rawls with the beat it was a hit from start
Introductions come without further ado
We got lone catalyst, my name is Asheru
Yes I come from a crew, we speak with our words
When it's loud and clear, your s___ gets heard
Kinda like how your mama can flash you that look
And right then and there your a__ gets shook
When your boy goes to court to face a trial
They drop his case, he cracks a smile
It's when two are in love, it's the feeling you get
Yo, you never forget, 'cause it's the ultimate
It's like a father to son, a mother to daughter
A reflection of you, whatever the order

And yo, it's Asheru rocking with Jay Sands
And yo, that's my man, break down the game plan
Independently run, selling hand to hand
Work the beat over until you understand
That's the way it is, not lies or biz
[?]
That's the key to success, no more, no less
So light the candles at the end before you stress
I got Seven Heads who give me support
And from day one, they hold down the fort
Family is a must, to have people you trust
Until ashes to ashes and dust to dust
No need to rush, what turns to crush
Right past for us could be disastrous
To come so far and lose it all tomorrow
So when I fit I take my hit up to the start

I am just a poor boy
Though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance
For a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises

Think about what you know
And what you don't, and what you won't
For the time right now since your date of birth
Now ask yourself what it's really worth

All lies and jests
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest

Think about what you know
And what you don't, and what you won't
For the time right now since your date of birth
Now ask yourself what it's really worth
