Squash All Beef
Lyricist：Wayne Henderson, William Henderson, Joseph Kirkland, Lawrence Parker
Hah, respect
All crew, all massive, everywhere in the world
You practice the art of hip-hop
This goes out to every boy and every girl
Give me relief, I sing
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, I sing
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us
Check it
All beef can be squashed if you want it
But instead of forgiveness, ego you flaunt it
Everybody gets into two or three quarrels
Leadin' to a squabble, someone will die tomorrow
Life is not a thing you can borrow
All beefs don't have to lead to sorrow
Will ya go out tomorrow?
I think you should think about the beef you got
And confront your enemy before it gets too hot
Never feel ashamed to say, 'Yo G, I'm sorry, I apologize'
The object is to stay alive
I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan
And I shouldn't have to run from a black man
I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan
And I shouldn't have to run from a black man
Yeah
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, I sing
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us
He said, she said, but she said she didn't
Face gets hit and then bullets start spittin'
No one's admittin' to their wrong doing, unfittin'
Revenge we're pursuin', look at what you're doin', listen
Release the calm and that should carry it
Be a mental vegetarian indulge in no beefs, like the
Fish in the aquarium, you'll enjoy it while you're tryin' it
There is no separation between the mind and the environment
Like a bolt of lightning
I'm givin' 5000 volts of the occult while I'm writin' and recitin'
I've come to enlighten black and white to the meaningless fightin'
Clash of the titans ain't right and it's wrong so the song reflects
Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com
For too long we've been vexed at each other
Every sister, every brother, you've gots ta love one another
I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan
And I shouldn't have to run from a black man
I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan
And I shouldn't have to run from a black man
Yeah!
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, check it
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, ha hah
Give me relief
(That's right)
Squash all beef
If I ruled the schools from pole to pole
The entire judicial system would fold
I would get rid of the books 'cuz they bogus
And in school, knowledge of self would be the focus
Kids would flock to the schools like locusts
'Cuz school now relates to them and you would notice
Violence in society would be a minimal
'Cuz the education, yeah, would now be metaphysical
Not livin' by laws, but livin' by principal
If you disobey, the universe gets with you
We would study giving so no one would steal
And we would read each other's magnetic fields
Petty crimes times petty crimes equals prison for lifetimes
The universe divided by two equals me and you
Me and you, go into the universe once or as one united front
But listen up, when I was growin' up in hip-hoppin'
We had a thing called Jailhouse Boxin', that's why I'm still here rockin'
'Cuz my competition never pulled a Glock in, yeah
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, I sing
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, yeah
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us, I sing
Give me relief, squash all beef
Don't let these arguments destroy us
Whattup Sadat X?
