Take Me Away Lyrics - Raw Footage - Ice Cube

Today was a good day 

Know what? Sometimes I just get on my knees 

You know what I mean? 

And pray to the Man with the master plan 

To swoop on down on that mothership 

Scoop a nigga up 

Lord, have mercy, my people so thirsty 

Come, feed 'em, either Jesus or Muhammad 

All we get is vomit, come like a comet 

Put it in my brain, Lord, put it in my stomach 

Only you can run it, I'ma learn from it 

Do what I gotta do, try not to plummet 

America eats its youth like reptiles 

Don't worry 'bout tomorrow, let's get this right now

They wanna run us in the ground 

Educate yourself before they dumb you down 

Get your money boy, the legal way 

Beat 'em with they own bullshit if you may 

Now rich white men, they got the world fucked up 

Why should I give a fuck about a Styrofoam cup? 

Environmental scene, I'll keep it clean 

But if I go green, you know what I mean, bitch 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away from these people 

Ice Cube for President 

Let's just do it for the hell of it 

See how I'd run the government, make money irrelevant 

I might tell a chick, it's illegal to be celibate 

Photos 

Secret Service don't know where the hell I went 

Sorry y'all, I had to fuck a super delegate 

Dream ticket, Ice Cube and Obama 

American dream, Ice Cube and yo' mama 

The Terminator, are you Sarakana? 

Arnold Schwarzenegger, can kill who he wanna 

In California, they strap you to a gurney 

And murder yo' ass in front of your attorney 

Do you really wanna take this journey? 

Ain't scared of none of y'all motherfuckers like Bernie 

Mac step back, step back, I got the Mac-11 

Unlike Obama, I'ma have to back my reverend 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away from these people 

Now the Lord is my shepherd, my flow is respected 

Worldwide, from the West I got to rep it 

So please check it, 'cause my style is infected 

With the virus, Ice Cube's the Osiris 

I bail through, they wanna put me up in Bellevue 

'Cause my point of view is not red, white and blue 

It's black and blue residue 

I know what crack can do to a whole fuckin' avenue 

Speak on it and they'll get mad at you 

You think I do this bullshit for your gratitude? 

I'm a Nigga With a Attitude 

I'ma do what I gotta do just to change my latitude 

Pimp the system, rollin' with my diamonds glistenin' 

And niggaz listenin' from your local prison 

I'm a prism, your only vision is a rainbow 

In the sky when I spit the ism, come on 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away 

Take me away from these people 

Take me away 

Take me away from these people
