《Footprints》歌词

[00:00:00] Footprints - A Tribe Called Quest

[00:00:19] As we start trudgin' me and my brothers we be lookin' and be buggin'

[00:00:23] Vehicles of life they be rollin' and be mergin'

[00:00:25] Searchin' for the virgins of life

[00:00:26] That be shovin' out the door that's crack

[00:00:29] The valleys of time are always on my feet

[00:00:31] As least the beat will combine

[00:00:32] The calluses and corns with the funky bassline

[00:00:35] You don't need underdog for a nickel shoeshine or the shoes that's phat

[00:00:38] Well can I get a level on the bass and on the treble

[00:00:41] Footin' up and down like a U N L V rebel

[00:00:43] The answer be amongst us cos we rarely dig acoustics

[00:00:45] Can't be too much flackin' not too much packin'

[00:00:48] You must container that at least to dip your hand in rap

[00:00:50] Your feet will be infectious so at least realise the fact

[00:00:52] The rhythms are inserted and the nurse can be converted

[00:00:55] This ain't rock 'n' roll 'cos the rap is in control

[00:00:57] If you're a megastar worth will buy you a car

[00:01:00] I'd rather go barefootin' for prints I will be puttin'

[00:01:02] All over the earth if we can get there first

[00:01:05] Now that we are in it footprints are bein printed

[00:01:07] So if you recognise 'em you can try to size 'em

[00:01:09] They'll probably be the ones with the size not fryin'

[00:01:12] All over reveal you won't have to yield

[00:01:14] If you want protection you can hide behind the shield

[00:01:36] You can game on the gallons if you really need to rock

[00:01:38] But we walk while we talk as we stompin' through the block

[00:01:40] Hand in hand 'cross the land as Muhammad cross the fade

[00:01:43] It's a tribe who meanders precious like a jade

[00:01:45] It's a art theo arch rhymes the ground placed upon

[00:01:48] The mind will unwind it will soft to beyond

[00:01:50] Catch the track track by track get a map to track a trail

[00:01:53] You will find yourself behind for a map does not prevail

[00:01:55] See the levels peakin' as the rhythms keep a screechin'

[00:01:57] A quest oh yes a quest inside the jam I will keep preachin'

[00:02:00] The point oh yes the point because it's close but yet so far

[00:02:02] The loudiness is ringin' as we scoot across the star

[00:02:04] We are bulgin' I'm indulgin' in a rat-a-tat-tat

[00:02:06] Explanation for the liners that the rhythm is phat

[00:02:09] Keep it wild wide and deep you could dig it in a jeep

[00:02:12] But dig it in the ground because the foot print now

[00:02:53] If there's a storm that's brewin' it won't keep us from doin'

[00:02:56] Our thing as we start swingin' travellin is bringin'

[00:02:58] Joy inside the domes as we hit the road to rome

[00:03:00] A chair is not a chair a house is not a home

[00:03:02] Because my skin is brown yo I'm gonna do the town

[00:03:04] Rub it in the face and rub my feet all through the place

[00:03:07] When you get your finger on the music it'll linger

[00:03:09] Sing a song of sixpence sing it like a singer

[00:03:12] A nubian a nubian a proud one at that

[00:03:14] Remember me the brother who said black is black

[00:03:16] You can come by request I don't play I don't dress

[00:03:19] Get emotions off your chest we are black we the best

[00:03:21] Makin' moves makin' motions flowin' like an ocean

[00:03:23] The walkin' will continue we know that we will bring you

[00:03:26] The times that you have waited more anticipated

[00:03:28] Be gone but not for long because the feet will stay strong
