Express Yourself

Flakin and perpetratin but scared to kick reality

Man you been doin all this d**e producin

You ain't had a chance to show them what time it is

So what you want me to do express yourself

I'm expressin with my full capabilities

And now I'm livin' in correctional facilities

Cause some don't agree with how I do this

I get straight and meditate like a buddhist

I'm droppin flava my behavior is hereditary

But my technique is very necessary

Blame it on ice cube because he said it gets funky

When you got a subject and a predicate

Add it on a d**e beat and it'll make you think

Some suckers just tickle me pink to my stomach

Cause they don't flow like this one

You know what I won't hesitate to diss one

Or two before I'm through so don't try to sing this

Some drop science while I'm droppin english

Even if yella makes it acapella

I still express yo I don't smoke w**d or sess

Cause it's known to give a brother brain damage

And brain damage on the mic don't manage nuthin

But makin a sucka and you equal

Don't be another sequel express yourself

Ah ah ah yeah

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Express yourself

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Now gettin back to the pg

That's program and it's easy

Dre is back new jacks are made hollow

Expressin ain't their subject because they like to follow

The words the style the trend the records I spin

Again and again and again yo you are on the other end

Watch a brother blend d**e rhymes with no help

There's no fessin or guessin while I'm expressin myself

It's crazy to see people be

What society wants them to be but not me

Ruthless is the way to go they know

Others say rhymes which fail to be original

Or they kill where the hip hop starts

Forget about the ghetto and rap for the pop charts

Some musicians cuss at home

But scared to use profanity when up on the microphone

Yeah they want reality but you will hear none

They'd rather exaggerate a little fiction

Some say no to d**gs and take a stand

But after the show they go lookin for the d**eman

Or they ban my group from the radio

Hear nwa and say hell no

But you know it ain't all about wealth

As long as you make a note to express yourself

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Express yourself

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Express yourself

From the heart cause

If you wanna start to move up the chart

Then expression is a big part of it

You ain't efficient when you flow you ain't swift

Movin like a tortoise full of rigor mortis

There's a little bit more to show

I got rhymes in my mind embedded like an embryo

Or a lesson all of them expression

And if you start fessin I got a smith wesson for ya

I might ignore your record because it has no bottom

I get loose in the summer winter spring and autumn

It's dre on the mic gettin physical

Doin the job nwa is the lynch mob

Yes I'm a calm but you know you need this

And the knowledge is growin just like a fetus

Or a tumor but here is the rumor

Dre is in the neighborhood and he's up to no good

When I start expressin myself yella slam it

Cause if I stay funky like this I'm doin damage

Or I'm a be too hyped and need a straight jacket

I got knowledge and other suckers lack it

So when you see dre a dj on the mic

Ask what it's like it's like we're gettin hyped tonight

Cause if I strike it ain't for your good health

But I won't strike if you just express yourself

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Express yourself

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Express yourself

Go on and do it

Go on and do it
