Black on Both Sides - Mos Def

"It's a lot of things goin' on y'all
21st century is comin'
20th century almost done
A lot of things have changed
A lot of things have not, mainly us
We gon' get it together right? I believe that
Listen—people be askin' me all the time
"Yo Mos, what's gettin' ready to happen with hip-hop?"
(Where do you think hip-hop is goin'?)
I tell em, "You know what's gonna happen with hip-hop?
Whatever's happening with us"
If we smoked out, hip-hop is gonna be smoked out
If we doin' alright, hip-hop is gonna be doin' alright
People talk about hip-hop like it's some giant livin' in the hillside
Comin' down to visit the townspeople
We are hip-hop
Me, you, everybody, we are hip-hop
So hip-hop is going where we going
So the next time you ask yourself where hip-hop is going
Ask yourself: where am I going? How am I doing?
Till you get a clear idea
So if hip-hop is about the people
And the hip-hop won't get better until the people get better
Then how do people get better? (Hmm)
Well, from my understanding people get better
When they start to understand that they are valuable
And they not valuable because they got a whole lot of money
Or 'cause somebody, think they sexy
But they valuable 'cause they been created by God
And God makes you valuable
And whether or not you recognize that value is one thing"

I never paid much mind to storm warnings

I say what's coming is coming all the same and it’s a perk of living under the freeway that you never get caught in the rain


my whole life they've been talking about the big one but I never thought I'd see the day when a tidal wave worthy of biblical remembrance would come to wash this whole city away.

and you can try to hold your own against it
you can stack them sandbags ten-high
I'll be floating down Main Street on a life raft
watching those barricades drift on by

They don't hide hope under that freeway
just one last stop on your way underground
No, I don't mind the thought of dying with the city
if we've all gotta drown
'cause there's a peace that comes with drowning
I think I read that once anyway, a rush of a thing called dimethyltryptamine that comes right as your lungs give way
