Ballin’ Chains Lyrics by DJ Maj

BoogiRoot

2005

So the question is
Do you got it
Or do it got you
Let's go let's go
I'm feelin' so live because I'm so alive
I just got back from Zion and felt the soul fire
I say we take the city and never give it back
Still forward march attack this time on dirty track
I got this feeling something's gonna erupt
So I'm calling all my people to a company front
We're gonna bring a new perspective to your cerebellum
Penetrating all borders we don't care where you from
While everybody's in pursuit of juice and new stuff
I see them thanks spinning your grinning your crew – what
It seems apparent that shorties missing their parents
And they're bringing them in in flocks to morgues and cell blocks see
You live then you die then it's off the planet
So why we all in panic take breath we breathe for granted
I say we take it back to the place
Where life is more than chasing groupies and cake
So we can sing it from the mountain top (yaaaa)
What you gonna do if they come for you tonight
Why you standing outside in the pouring rain
Let's do away with the ball and chains
My people sing it from the mountain top like (yaaa)
What you gonna do if they come for you tonight
While the rest of the world is going insane
We do away with the ball and chains
Turn me up a little louder
Sound man come light up the sound board
Jah people let me hear you holla
Yell redemption for all the people
Now I'm just a simple man with various limitations
Looking for truth in a complex situation
Cause when that baby's crying you got to handle that
Get your paper stack your stacks
Cause we ain't got no time for lacks
Keeping in mind time is passing
See some times what we're hustling for
Leave us stuck in the mud
Like cruising along in your new speed boat
Back at the dock hello Mr. Repo
So all my peoples stand up
If you're feeling the tug inside your inner man
Just understand you got to get those hands up
It's time to call a truce and be released from the reach
Of the noose and just recognize
The threshold of negative energy
Sometimes the enemy really tends to be inner me
We're wasting all our energy spinning round and round
When we're needing to slow down
So what you know about it
The party's on and popping
And can't nobody stop it
We keep it live with hotness
So welcome to the new plateau
Tell me how it feels to exist past the status quo
Slash the lassos whips and anything hindering
Saint and sinner man hope you're listening
Cause when you're sick and can't get well
And trouble's all on your brain
Remember God came to earth to settle the score
And do away with the ball and chains
