Reincarnate

{Chorus}
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Let the rhythm get into your mind and soul
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Feel the rhythm of this rock n roll 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Let the rhythm make you feel no pain 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Feel the rhythm from the first refrain 
(Refrain)
Listen up,
and don't say a word 
I might flip it, kick a wicked rhyme
You never heard, so 
Sit back and listen to the flow
Let it, get into your mind,
infect your soul 
(Verse)
If a gunshot 
Hit me in the heart 
Would I 
Reincarnate? Go back to the start?
Or would I ... just 
Fade away and disappear 
The sound of the gun is still ringing in my ear, like
"booyakaaa, booyaka, lick a shot! Bo! Bo! Bo! 
I saw the gun man and he didn't even know
Who I was or what I'm all about
Now all I hear is faded sirens
Screams and shouts
A woman cries and a dreadlocked brother said
"Why can't we all try and love each other?"
I lay there bleeding, my heart starts crying, 
We've got to change the world
There's too many people dying 
(Refrain)
Listen up,
and don't say a word 
I might flip it, kick a wicked rhyme
You never heard, so 
Sit back and listen to the flow
Let it, get into your mind,
infect your soul
{Chorus}
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Let the rhythm get into your mind and soul
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Feel the rhythm of this rock n roll 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Let the rhythm make you feel no pain 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Feel the rhythm from the first refrain
(Break down & drop) 
(Verse) 
Oh you don't like me 'cause the way that I walk?
You don't like me 'cause the way that I talk?
Well, you don't like the way I cut my hair 
Now you don't like the style of clothes I wear 
I don't care, I just keep on stepping 
I smile at you, 'cause that's my best weapon 
I'm sick and tired of using defenses 
Undesired and it's dulling my senses 
Every body wanna cut me down 
Like a rainforest crashing to the ground 
You heard the sound, 'cause I vocalized it 
Got into your mind and mobilized it
Some days it seems I just can't win
So I pick up a pen and pad and begin
To compose some prose 
To elevate your mind  
Then deliver flows like this, "ONE TIME"!
{Chorus}
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Let the rhythm get into your mind and soul
Let the rhythm get into your mind 
Feel the rhythm of this rock n roll 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Let the rhythm make you feel no pain 
Let the rhythm get into your brain 
Feel the rhythm from the first refrain
(Refrain)
Listen up,
and don't say a word 
I might flip it, kick a wicked rhyme
You never heard, so 
Sit back and listen to the flow
Let it, get into your mind,
infect your soul
