Artist/Band: Talib Kweli
Lyrics for Song: In This World
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Talib Kweli



(In this world)

This that feeling

(What's happening to love?)

It's that feeling you miss

(I'd like to know)

It's that love, it's that passion

Tone they don't get shit like this no more



What happen to the love?

What happen to the love?

What happen to the?

Reflex, ayyo



Welcome to my longitude and latitude

My attitude is shaping my surroundings

Skyscrapers, public housing

The sheep is running from the sun

The wolves is howling at the moon



It's tragic how you in the street

'Cause you ain't got no avenues

When it come to rapping who's the baddest dude?

(In this world)



You still don't get it, this a recession, what recession?

Dog, we been stressing

Shit been a mess and we been dealing with this depression

Since way back but you ain't got to say that



That's the greatest lesson, slave to our possessions

Greed the devil favorite weapon

Fight to the death, only the greatest left

(In this world)

Let's get it



Lordy, lordy, lordy, lord

I been hustling really, really hard

Get up off my ass start making some moves

Put two and two together start paying my dues

I got to get up for it, stand up in this world



If skills sold truth be told, I'd probably be lyrically Talib Kweli

Lyrically Talib Kweli, Talib Kweli



I get respected by the best MC's

(In this world)

The recipe for my success is one part pain and suffering

Two parts brains and hustling

Sprinkle it over Hi-Tek production

We bubbling like volcanic eruptions



You better buckle in, push the panic button

Come get your momma to tuck you in

You know we did like no other did it

(In this world)

You gots to get with it



In this world

What's happening to love?

I'd like to know



Lordy, lordy, lordy, lord

I been hustling really, really hard

Get up off my ass start making some moves

Put two and two together start paying my dues

I got to get up for it, stand up in this world



Ayo, I grab the mic until my hands develop the calluses

My style is bit, I only see myself with John Malkovich

My grind miraculous, rhyme for slums to palaces

Facing all my challengers, raising the black power fist

Here to eliminate the counterfeit

(In this world)



Add it up it don't amount to shit

I paid my dues kept the receipt for taxes

Although we stack it we stay stuck in the bracket

It's like a straitjacket



My rebel tactics got the planet spinning off it's axis

The devil laughing when you lazy, man, get off your ass

And talent don't mean nothing without all the practice

(In this world)



Lordy, lordy, lordy, lord

I been hustling really, really hard

Get up off my ass start making some moves

Put two and two together start paying my dues

I got to get up for it, stand up in this world
