Up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up
[Verse 1: Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli]
Wake up in the mornin'
And I give thanks and praise (thanks and praise)
Open up the gift called a brand-new day (this is a brand-new day)
Yes, we 'bout to freak it in a brand-new way
Don't put off to tomorrow what you could do today
Road around hometown on the there's truth in my name
Black Star burning leave the roof in flames
The ghetto feel the pressure, Mos Def that's my family
We the same reaction to this insanity(crazy)
Yo, ayo I love to see my brother smiling
Especially when the world get crazier than Shutter Island
I'm Scorcese, Goodfellas always move in silence
I knew they was departed when they shut they eyelids
I show love for them, born fi' dead
Killer soundboy wanted shots and they fled
It's most love again
Bow too to true and living
My faith ain't blind, I see the signs, 20/20 vision
Even when the money missin'
They like my body, my mind free when I run the prison
Brooklyn! Like the 'Stuy, this is do or die
I'm 'bout to pull the plug like assisted suicide
Thieves in the Night
That was based on the Bluest Eye, write like Toni Morrison, 'til they bring the chorus in
My rhymes tell the truest lie
We hop out the DeLorean, we truly fly
[Chorus: Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli]
And life is good (good morning)
(Only Yahweh) (hey, hey)
Life is good (good morning, hey, hey)
(Yes y'all, keep goin' on) (keep goin on) (yeah)
Life is good (good morning)
Shit all the time (DJ Deckstream, ay, ay, so extreme)
Life is good (good morning)
(Only Yahweh) (hey, yeah)
Life is good (good morning)
(Go hard keep rockin' on) (yeah, yeah)
Life is good (good morning, yeah)
(Shit all the time)
(Up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up)
Come on up now (now, now, now) (hey, hey) (haha, yes!)
Come on up now
All the time
Come on up now
[Post-Chorus: Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli]
Once again
Def keep rockin' it, you should be rockin' it, (hey, hey)
Deckstream rockin' it, you should be rockin' it, (come on up now)
Whole world rockin' it, you should be rockin' it, (all the time)
And there ain't no stoppin' the sun
[Verse 2: Yasiin Bey]
Today I got a call, it was Umi on the horn
Her voice so cool said son, you're a jewel
Protect minor heart and you're soul won't lose
If they prove untrue, then don't eat they food
Take care of yourself
Creator got the rest
And never mind stress
Just do your best
So plain, so sweet and it hit me so deep with all the blues in the news, that's news that I need
So give thanks, spread love, proceed
Not so slow or too swift, Godspeed
Cruise control and
You the row and
Move your body body
Save your soul
And, stay humble
But be proud
Cry when you need to and laugh out loud
Like peace
Unity
Love
Let's have some fun
[Pre-Chorus: Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli]
Once again
It's like Def keep rockin' it, you should be rockin' it (good morning, hey, hey)
Deckstream rockin' it, you should be rockin' it, (good morning, yeah)
Brooklyn rockin' it, you should be rockin' it (good morning)
And there ain't no stoppin' the sun (ay, ay, ay)
Once again
Like Def keep rockin' it, you should be rockin' it (good morning, hey, yeah)
Deckstream rockin' it, you should be rockin' it, (good morning, yeah, yeah)
Whole world rockin' it, you should be rockin', (good morning)
And there ain't no stoppin' the sun
[Chorus: Yasiin Bey & Talib Kweli]
And life is good
Only Yahweh (hey, hey)
Life is good
Let's go ya'll (keep goin on)
Life is good (DJ Deckstream)
Shit all the time (ay, ay, ay, so extreme)
Life is good (only Yahweh) (hey, yeah)
Life is good (hey, hey) (go hard keep rockin' on)
Life is good all the time
(Up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up, you wake up)
