Push It Along

Q-Tip is my title I don't think that is vital for me to be your idol But dig this recital If you can't envision a brother who ain't dissin Slingin' this and that, 'cause this and that was missin Instead, it's been injected, the Tribe has been perfected Oh yes, it's been selected, the art makes it protected Afrocentric livin', Africans be givin A lot to the cause 'cause the cause has been risen Some brothers, they be flammin', thinkin' we ain't slammin Comin' off like the days where we used to wear the tans and A blue-colllar talker, a hemisphere stalker A glass of O.J and a ten mile walk-a If you're in a Jeep and you dig what you're hearin Can I get a beep and a side order of cheerin?
