Cause And Effect Lyrics by Gang Starr

Cause And Effect Lyrics

    [guru]
    You ain't livin right punk, i'll have to school you
    Not rule you, but i'll say yo you fool yourself
    When you try to deny and defy written laws
    This means your cause has lost
    Think about it, take the time, and even ponder longer
    Then let your mind start to wander
    Go black and track the facts, about all of your mistakes
    It only takes to one to make fate
    Pick up your life, clean up your act, and get a legal plan
    You can, or be an evil man
    Caught, and then you claim you're not responsible
    The choice was yours, when the fun's gone you will realize
    That you don't get somethin for nothin, why you bluffin?
    Others even brothers are stuffin their pockets
    With honest cash, they'll laugh, so don't knock it
    Jock it, cause the guru must stop it
    I'll jab you, smack you, crack -- you're demolished
    You must acknowledge -- life is like a college in itself
    Get a degree in reality
    Or you will be upon it like a lawn you'll be walked on
    Gone, never to see or be the same again
    Friend, cause the time you spend
    Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
    Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
    Will have your life in a wreck
    And homeboy life is cause and effect

    Exactly what you put in boy, you will get out of it
    The energy released comes back, there is no doubt of it
    So when you thrive to connive and contrive foolish deeds
    This means you'll bleed from greed
    Dig the rhyme dig the thought, of what'll happen
    You're nappin, you're gonna fall off the map 'n'
    Lie out, and cry out, why? you got the short end of the stick
    Cause you're too quick to run tricks
    Open your mind, widen your sight, get out of your rut
    Move, and get the lead out of your butt
    Cause you can't live without a plan to get freshed chump
    And you shouldn't stand to let
    Anything sway you from the path you know is truthful
    Chill, cause you know the chosen youth will
    Take over, and control the whole so don't blow it
    Know it, cause the guru must show it
    I'll teach you, reachin each so you're enlightened
    Emcees are frightened, by what i write in my songs
    Cause i express what i manifest
    While some of you fall down to the ground with breakdowns
    Never to see or be the same again
    Friend, cause the time you spend
    Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
    Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
    Will have your life in a wreck
    And homeboy life is cause and effect

    * primo scratches *

    [guru]
    You're still playin games lame, i'll have to end you
    Straight to the gate of fate, so you can claim your doom
    Will you decay as you pay in repentance
    I light my sentence like incense
    Breathe in, expel your fears as you marvel
    Heed what i feed, you won't starve you'll make it
    But if you don't, you will be finished
    You'll dissapear, you will diminish
    Never to see or be the same again
    Friend, cause the time you spend
    Bringin down yourself, bringin down the pace
    Bringin down your friends, bringin down the race
    Will leave you bugged and upset
    Cause homeboy life is cause and effect
    Cause and effect!!

    * primo scratches *

    [guru]
    Once again, premier and the guru
    It's like that
