Pause

Lyrics

Afros (yeah)
 Afros (whassup my man?)
 Brothers be out there doin' crack (no)
 They be doin' dope (no)
 They be gangbangin' (no)
 All them brothers need to just pause
 Yeah, I'm with that
 Here comes the Afros
 And the 40 ounce crew
 Who say slowly but surely
 We gonna turn the mother out
 We got more in store
 Young ladies on the floor, so cool out, pause
 Intrо, which means I start it
 In other words, herbs departed
 Pause, stop for the cause
 Get up, get down, you get yours
 Chill, no time to get ill
 (Word to herb) yeah, it's the will of God
 So whassup Hobbes?
 Just jock, clock, rock, and don't stop but
 Pause
 Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
 Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
 Go, go, go, go, go, go, go, go
 Go, go, go, go, go, go, go
 Pause, pause for the cause, get yours
 But don't break laws
 Quit, quit it, forget it
 Pause, say your way with it
 Pause, if you did it, admit it
 'Cause you shouldn'ta did it
 Next time, you think of doin' a crime
 Pause, and remember this rhyme
 Pause for the 'cause, 'cause broken laws
 Are just like broken jaws
 They take a long time to heal
 I'm for real, and I know the deal
 Look it over, investigate
 Evaluate, think
 Life is wrong, and full of flaws
 Before you break laws, just pause!
 I think that worked, man
 I think that worked, man
 I think that worked, man (pause)
 I think-, I think that worked, man (pause)
 Yeah pause, this beat is dope D
 I'm tellin' you, this beat is dope
 Just slammin', it's dope
 Well if it's dope, I hope it's not crack
 Or coke, or nuttin' like somethin' you ever smoke
 And if they offer you some say no or pause
 The reason I wrote this rhyme, is not to climb
 But just to tell all mankind
 That the use and abuse of drugs (will what?)
 Will blow your mind
 Like dough makes bread
 It goes straight to your head
 You're misled and then you're dead
 Now that's not fly, when you die on a high
 Like a trip, oooh, you make me sick
 Ill, lookin' like doo-doo on a stick
 You don't have to be a vic
 Life is like a flick, so pause
 Pause, p-pause, pause, p-p-pause
 Alright y'all, now that you understand
 My man Run never ran
 I'm gonna take this mic yo my hand
 And hand this to the one-man band
 Now pause, now pause
 I'm Jay, I make up the trey
 Now check out the dance that I display
 It's called the pause
 A new thing on the dance floor
 First you move, then you stop
 Combine the hustle, foxtrot, pop and lock
 Put 'em all together why because
 It's called the pause
 Slammin', the dance is slammin'
 Pause, the people are jammin'
 Stop again, back to the groove
 I show you how to move (pause)
 It's simple, just like stop and go
 You can pause on the fast or slow
 Participate, won't you all get down
 Here's a solo from my homeboy Stanley Brown
 Ahh yeah, I like this R&B shit
 Pause, pause
 One more time!
 ♪
 Yeah, do that, do that
 ♪
 Now pause!
