Verse 1

When I look you in your eyes I can see my own
Straight love manifested in flesh and bone
You’s a breath of fresh air in this world of shit
You was born to be a soldier don’t ever forget
Hit back when hit
Use force that’s effective
All these bitches and women
Son, please be selective
This is California can’t stick your dick in everything
We will survive necessarily by any means
Let no man ever hold you down or supress you
It’s the 90’s the police just arrest you,
disrespect you on occasion take life
By the time you come of age they’ll probably blast on sight
It’s a shame they protect them but try to serve us
When your neck is on the line stand ground then bust
In God we trust but just incase keep it loaded and locked
Ready to rock
Then shake the spot
The Foundation

Verse 2

You came from a long line of killers and drug dealers
Who forever smoke bud
So it’s probably in your blood
Realize you can only run the streets so long
Then the streets run you into the ground then gone
It’s kinda ruff trying to teach you what’s right from wrong
Same shit different day
It’s the same ol’ song
If the time ever comes that I meet my match
Take control of my assets
Fuck startin’ from scratch
Take care of your mother
Keep yourself on track
Just cause niggas get behind you don’t mean they got your back
Beware of the serpent
Cause there’s a time in life the mothafucker will strike
And try to make you loose sight
Don’t be a fake mothafucker tryin to keep shit real
Fill cassettes with idle threats with no guts to kill
Son if you ever pull heat
Then use it
If you got a chance to walk away
Then do it
Total domination takes full concentration in all situations
A solid foundation

Verse 3

You are the foundation
Begining of a new generation
I remember hospital hallway pacin’
I was anxious as fuck to see your face shine
Only to find that yours looked like mine
So it’s like I’m livin twice at the exact same time
In this life you can’t press stop
Then press rewind
Gotta live to the fullest never follow behind no man
Have your own plan, expand your mind
Ain’t no paper thin game to raise wannabe thugs
This is nothing but love
via sattelite Muggs
Take heed when it’s your turn to bring new life
Make sure it’s the woman you goin’ make your wife
Be prepared for the worst
But expect the best
No matter where life takes you
Come home to the West
Survival takes more than just gats and guns
That’s words to live by
From a father to a son

Intro: Grand Puba

Brand Nubian baby, here to flip it again
And you know it don’t stop until the party ends
So get your hands up high, if you feel me reply
Cos you know these brothers here we keep it extra tight

Verse One: Lord Jamar

Look, listen and observe, it took precision to connect
The words of dialect within a rhythm you never heard
Forbidden fruit, take a bite, you could lose your life
like how they crucified Christ Musa’s hair was white
Lord Jamar, Sadat X and Puba’s here tonight
We got next on the court, I don’t know what you thought
This flow can’t be bought, only sold in exchange
for platinum ang gold, you’ve been told, open up the manifold
Only to reveal scrolls and scrolls
Premeditated to be dedicated to lost souls
Properly educated, never sloppily operated
Playing the beats for all my people incarcerated
We stay in the streets and find new ways to eat
Crime wave, I remember wetting my feet
in my blind days, now these niggas getting they heat
from under they seat, I wonder when the guns’ll deplete

Chorus: Grand Puba

Brand Nubian brothers here to flip it again
And you know we don’t stop until your party ends
So get your hands up high, if you feel me reply
Cos you know these brothers here, we keep it extra tight
The Foundation, as we hitcha with a Brand Nu creation
New millennium we don’t mess around
Do the knowledge as we blaze the situation, so just feel me now

Verse Two: Sadat X

I’m in a rush, who got the keys to my truck?
Who am I? I just might be a spy
I drop a tear at the sight of the blue NY
I’m a threat just like Garnette
Pick a player out my set like Marbury
Serve me sherry with a cherry
I always eat what you think
I ain’t got no shoes on my feet, I’m from down the street, huh
Now cats ride around New York with the slick hot rods
Some late model usually pushing full throttle
Hanging illegal U’s and staying with the gleaming shoes
Riding one deep but back to back to back
Fuck a buzz, it’s gonna happen just because
Sure I was with her was, but I don’t know what she does
Big dimes hit me everytime like it’s a crime
My prime will steadily climb
Yeah, I can’t release nothing to y’all before it’s time

Chorus

Verse Three: Grand Puba

Now my verbal illustration graphic more than Playstation
Microphone occupation operation save the nation
Black crusader, persuader, educator
Knowledge detonator none greater
Leave haters stuck like a project elevator
Always jammin it airtight like a laminate
You can’t contaminate it
Go-getters we be superb like Justin’s catfish fritters
Now I got 2000 flows, only 4 less than all of my hoes (*Hey!*)
Oops I mean my bro’s but I’m just keeping y’all on your toes
Excitement for your enlightenment, spitting novels, getting bravos
Tear it up like El Nino, keeping it hotter than jalapenos
Microphone holder doing more damage than rolling boulders
Rhyme style should’ve fooled ya, knocked your head right off your
shoulders
See my intention, black-on-black prevention, break the tension
Teach the seeds, tell them what they need and then collect my pension
Brand Nubian, baby, born more flows than a test tube valve
Your radio ain’t really on if Brand Nubian ain’t on your dial

Outro: Grand Puba

Yeah, as we do it like this
2000, Brand Nubian comin atcha one time
New millennium style

Hello, this is me to you
It’s better now we’re coming through
And i don’t really know just who we are
I’ll stay here till my loves full up
So stir this cocktail,shake me up
Drink me down and take me from the bar.
We’ll build a foundation,
Build a foundation
Build a foundation,
You know we’re gonna build, build it up.
Spent the night in tumbledown
A hundred miles from west of town
Plans were laid , no compromise was made.
Gently up to meet the blue
Left a note and signed it "true"
Those construction games were all we played.
Oh i know you’re gonna give your best
So more or less,gotta put it to the test
Don’t you know you’ve got the whole world in your hands.
Surrender up and lay down your arms
The fighting hurts but the loving calms
Oh i know you’ve got the whole world in your hand.
We’ll build a foundation,
Build a foundation
Build a foundation,
You know we’re gonna build, build it up.
