《Back On the Block》歌词

[00:00:00] Back On The Block - Quincy Jones

[00:00:05] Back

[00:00:06] Back on the block

[00:00:09] Back

[00:00:11] Back on the block

[00:00:14] Back on the block so we can rock

[00:00:16] With the soul rhythm blues be bop and hip hop

[00:00:18] Back on the block

[00:00:20] Back on the block

[00:00:23] Ice-T let me kick my credentials

[00:00:25] A young player bred in South Central

[00:00:27] L A home of the body bag

[00:00:30] You wanna die wear the wrong color rag

[00:00:32] I used to walk in stores and yell "Lay down"

[00:00:34] You flinch an inch AK spray down

[00:00:37] But I was lucky 'cause I never caught the hard time

[00:00:39] I was blessed with the skill to bust a dope rhyme

[00:00:42] All my homies died or caught the penzo

[00:00:44] Lost their diamonds cops towed their Benzos

[00:00:46] Livin' that life that we thought was it

[00:00:48] Fast lanin' but the car flipped

[00:00:50] I'm not gonna lie to ya 'cause I don't lie

[00:00:53] I just kick thick game some people say why

[00:00:55] 'Cause I'm back on the block I got my life back

[00:00:57] So I school the fools about the fast track

[00:01:00] I get static from the style of my technique

[00:01:02] Profanity the blatant way in which I speak

[00:01:04] But the Dude knows the streets ain't no kiddie game

[00:01:06] You don't know the Dude Quincy's his first name

[00:01:09] He told me Ice keep doin' what you're doin' man

[00:01:11] Don't give a damn if the squares don't understand

[00:01:13] You let 'em tell you what to say and what to write

[00:01:15] Your whole career'll be over by tomorrow night

[00:01:18] Rap from your heart and your heart's with the street

[00:01:20] Rap on my record man Kimiko send Ice the beat

[00:01:22] The Dude is def no doubt what can I say

[00:01:25] The man can roll with Ice-T or Michael J

[00:01:27] Back

[00:01:29] Back on the block

[00:01:31] Back

[00:01:33] Back on the block

[00:01:36] Back on the block so we can rock

[00:01:38] With the soul rhythm blues be bop and hip hop

[00:01:41] Back on the block

[00:01:42] Back on the block

[00:01:45] I'm back on the block on the screen

[00:01:47] I'm on the wax I'm on the stage I'm on the scene

[00:01:50] I'm on the case just like an attorney

[00:01:52] The Dude took me on a magic journey

[00:01:54] To dance in France alone in Rome

[00:01:56] On the farmlands of Nebraska the cold of Alaska

[00:01:59] The heat of the motherland to be with my brother man

[00:02:01] On top of a snowcapped mountain I'm scoutin'

[00:02:03] What another man saw in a race of people

[00:02:06] To see him give his life for the price of equal

[00:02:08] The highest wisdoms the richest kingdoms

[00:02:10] The song of songs we heard David sing them

[00:02:12] He showed me me when I was young and hung out

[00:02:15] He showed me makin' love even showed me strung out

[00:02:17] He showed me poppin' nines standin' on a rock

[00:02:19] But tears came to my eyes when he showed me my block

[00:02:23] Ba-ba-back on the

[00:02:24] Ba-back on

[00:02:26] Ba-ba-back on the block

[00:02:28] Ba-ba-back on

[00:02:29] Ba-ba-back on the block

[00:02:31] Stokie's just Stokie mama

[00:02:34] Stokie's Stokie

[00:02:35] And one by one each woman he kiss

[00:02:38] He kiss her and she gon' fall in love

[00:02:40] Stokie's just Stokie you know

[00:02:43] Stokie's Stokie

[00:02:45] Till someone shows that they care enough

[00:02:47] Ain't nothin' gonna bother Stokie much

[00:02:49] Some say they can't take it no more

[00:02:52] Comin' here comin' here startin' stuff

[00:02:54] But Dude is back on duty fo' sho'

[00:02:56] Back on the block to stay

[00:02:58] They say he ain't gonna be with it

[00:03:01] Comin' back comin' back to the street

[00:03:03] But Dude he know you'll never forget it

[00:03:05] Back on the block to stay

[00:03:12] Back up and give the brother room

[00:03:13] To let poetry bloom to whom it may concern or consume

[00:03:17] As I reminisce before this the bliss that exist

[00:03:19] But now we brought about a twist

[00:03:21] 'Cause I remember of my people bleedin'

[00:03:23] Put through slavery and killed for bravery

[00:03:26] We shoulda got our freedom much sooner

[00:03:28] You never seen a Blackman on the honeymooners

[00:03:30] But now somehow we've learned to earn to grow to show

[00:03:33] The elevation of a people built is so

[00:03:35] Jesse Jackson Miss America a black one

[00:03:37] No more livin' for just a small fraction

[00:03:39] I was once told by the Dude that knowledge is a food

[00:03:42] To nourish so to conclude

[00:03:44] This from an Asiatic descendant Big Daddy is shocked

[00:03:47] Yo Q we back on the block

[00:03:49] Back

[00:03:50] Back on the block

[00:03:53] Back

[00:03:55] Back on the block

[00:03:58] Back on the block so we can rock

[00:04:00] With the soul rhythm blues be bop and hip hop

[00:04:02] Back on the block

[00:04:04] Back on the block

[00:04:07] An everlasting omnipresence is my present

[00:04:09] State of being seeing the unpleasant

[00:04:11] Sight of righteous souls live like peasants

[00:04:14] The mind stunts growth in adolescence

[00:04:16] My insight enables me to enlight

[00:04:18] The weakest of minds and I put 'em in flight

[00:04:20] As I transcend a-scend or de-scend

[00:04:23] Re-create re-incarnate and re-send

[00:04:25] The powerful spirits of our ancestors

[00:04:27] For those that don't know how God blessed us

[00:04:30] Because man messed up the media dressed up

[00:04:32] Lies perpetrated as truth and it left us

[00:04:34] Confused but I've seen it all before

[00:04:36] From Babylon to the Third World War

[00:04:39] I'm more than a man I'm more like an entity

[00:04:41] Back on the block and this time my identity is the Dude

[00:04:45] Ba-ba-back on the

[00:04:46] Ba-back on

[00:04:47] Ba-ba-back on the block
