In The Red Lyrics - Revolutions Per Minute - Talib Kweli

Can you feel it? Can you feel it? 

Here we go, are you recording? 

Aiyyo Tone, is it ah, ah on? 

Let it bump, they love it in the red 

Reflection Eternal, that other shit is dead 

Yes, let me know if you alive 

Put your hands in the air, let me know if bring it live 

Hey, come on, hey, I love music 

Music is the river, we floating, we get to live it 

Like the souls of those swept away crossing the Mississippi 

Honorary spokesman, my focus is so scary 

Vocalist for the hopeless, I'm championing my city 

Cracks in the levy, we catching the last ferry 

Apply this application that's crashing your Blackberry 

Rock Steady like Aretha, it's got heavy 

What's that about cat and mouse, Tom and Jerry? 

Commissary get commissioned, the prison no sanctuary 

For the locked up, every relationship adversary 

Ain't no replacement, so make a statement before you buried 

With very legendary already, no need to worry 

Pay attention to the music, led your hazard to bury 

Mixed for transistor radio speakers, Marvin married 

His daughter in sort of a quest for a father figure 

The little Stevie Wonder was killing 'em at the shows 

Best songwriter since Smokey and Quincy Jones 

Gill Scott and Last Poets turned they poems into song 

Everybody know that my favorite Nina Simone 

Rest in peace Michael Jackson, I think I need a shamone 

Paid attention to his lyrics, he wished we leave him alone 

(Leave me alone) 

Huh, leave him alone 

Huh, leave him alone 

James Brown and Michael Jackson was working until they gone 

On tour just so they could make payments on they homes 

Everybody cried when Usher sang him a song 

Joe Jackson was promoting his label, he know he wrong 

Shame how our heroes are broke, we call 'em stars 

That's because when they falling to earth, they falling hard 

Everybody balling hard but they sound wack 

If you in the resistance then this your soundtrack 

Let it bump, they love it in the red 

Reflection Eternal, that other shit is dead 

Yes, let me know if you alive 

Put your hands in the air, let me know if you alive
