[Intro] Hello, hello, hello, hello Hello, hello, hello, hello Hello, hello, hello, hello Hello, hello, hello Hello, hello, hello, hello [Verse 1 - Mos Def] Every anywhere; heights, plains, peaks and valleys Entrances, exits, vestibules and alleys Winding roads that test the firm nerve Fortune or fatal behind the blind curve The engine oil purr, lights flash to a blur Speed work through the earth, make your motor go skrrt Tonight at noon, watch a bad moon risin' Identities in crisis and conflict diamonds blindin' Staring at lights till they cryin' Bone gristle poppin' from continuous grindin' Grapes of Wrath in a shapely glass Ingredients influential on your ways and acts Zero tolerance to raise the tax It don't matter how your gates is latched You ain't safe from the danger, Jack Made a way before they made the map Or a GPS, this is D-E-F, leader [Chorus – Dice Raw] I know where I'm goin,' even when it's dark And being led down that road (Hello, hello, hello, hello) You don't see that something's wrong, Earth's spinnin' outta control? (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Everything's for sale, even souls Someone get God on the phone! (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Northside, nigga, Southside (Hello hello hello) Shit's poppin' off worldwide (Hello hello hello) [Verse 2 – Black Thought] Yo, between the greenhouse gases, and Earth spinnin' off its axis Got Mother Nature doin' back flips, the natural disasters It's like 80 degrees in Alaska, you in trouble if you're not an Onassis It ain't hard to tell that the conditions is drastic Just turn on the telly, check for the news flashin' How you want it bagged, paper or plastic? Lost in translation or just lost in traffic? Yo, I don't wanna floss, I done lost my passion And I ain't tryin' to climb, yo I lost my traction They makin' me break, my contents under pressure, do not shake I'm workin' while the boss relaxin' Here come Mr. Taxman, he leavin' a fraction, give me back some Matter fact, next paycheck, it's like that, son! I'll fuck around and have to hurt a few men They'll probably chalk it up as a disturbing new trend, hello [Chorus – Dice Raw] I know where I'm goin,' even when it's dark And being led down that road (Hello, hello, hello, hello) You don't see that something's wrong, Earth's spinnin' outta control? (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Everything's for sale, even souls Someone get God on the phone! (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Northside, nigga, Southside (Hello hello hello) Shit's poppin' off worldwide (Hello hello hello) [Verse 2 – Styles P] Should I say hello or should I say that hell is low? Am I a nigga or a negro? (Tell me) I'm an African American (Yeah) They sell drugs in the hood, but The Man, he move the medicine (He move the medicine) He'll prescribe you an augment for everything (For everything) A little stuffy nose, tell you get some Claritin (Ha ha) You know I'm hip to it And it's hard to claim the land when my great-great-great grands were shipped to it Look at technology: they call it downloading (Pssh) I call it downsizing, somebody follow me (Follow me) Does a computer chip have an astrology (Does it?) And when it fuck up, could it give you an apology? (Could it?) Should it say hello or should it say goodbye (Goodbye) Try to understand how smart and how hood am I? It don't matter, though Until we learn that the world don't turn right, we all oughtta scatter, though [Chorus – Dice Raw] I know where I'm goin,' even when it's dark And being led down that road (Hello, hello, hello, hello) You don't see that something's wrong, Earth's spinnin' outta control? (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Everything's for sale, even souls Someone get God on the phone! (Hello, hello, hello, hello) Northside, nigga, Southside (Hello hello hello) Shit's poppin' off worldwide (Hello hello hello)
