Текст (слова) песни: Blackalicious - As the World Turns

 
"Now, I thought I would talk about today 
For your consideration, as the world turns 
As the world turns, you read in all these scriptures 
About the world, find out that the world does turn!" 
 
As the world keeps spinning, we live these days 
Dollar bill done drove the whole world crazy 
While sitting on the porch letting ganja blaze 
Never hesitate a moment to enhance my phrase 
Since I needed that escape I take my pull 
Seen the thugs on the corner trying to act all cool 
Pretty much out of character 
I look right through, their transparent exterior 
You in my book getting written and I`m the derriere 
Thought you was peeping me but I was aware of ya 
You peep my ill expressions, how I just glare about 
Trying to trace my inner world and my whereabouts 
Well try on, try on 
I`m watching everything that`s going down 
And it ain`t nothing that I ain`t been around 
The same ghetto but a different town 
Weeell, I remember growing up in the P-a-c 
It was a whole lot of love in my family 
I had clothes on my back and shoes on my feet 
Times we didn`t have a lot but that was fine with me 
In good times and even bad times 
Whether rainy, grey sky or the sunshine 
Life was so much simpler, I didn`t realise it then 
But time has definitely made me a wiser man 
 
[Chorus 2x: Erinn Anova] 
The world keeps turning round 
And time just keeps on moving 
 
Sunday morning in the church just singing a song 
Mama gave much praise cause her soul was strong 
When I was young I used to do lots of thangs was wrong 
I never thought about till one day she was gone 
Now my daddy passed on about a year before 
Reminiscing as I glance at the fishing pole 
But these things gotta happen so we all can grow 
And now they spirits much freer than they was befo` 
So fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on, fly on 
Cause there`s angels in the midst 
And they`re guiding and watching me every day 
And even though at times I let it get to me 
Just a little and I go astray 
We keep marching on and on 
Young militants will watch and now we`re growing 
With kids of their own, as it all unfolds 
As the world keeps turning on, the world keeps turning on 
 
[Chorus 4x] 
 
This one goes out to family, y`all come first 
G-A-B, Chief Xcel, Blackalicious, out
