I've got something to tell you
I've got something to tell you
I've got something to tell you
I've got something to tell you

Check
Well here's the good to go, 'cause it gets good when it's goin'
It ain't so-and-so'n it's just Grand Puba flowin'
Stud Doogie, Alamo, on the ziggie rub the table
Kunta Kinze droppin' driz on some old, shake the leg shit
Now it's time to flow, since we formally introduced us
Jump up on the stage and watch the honeys try to seduce us
Watch the three sprout beyond shadow of a doubt
Here's the resume, for the day, you know the flav, skin out
Here's the rootin' tootin' type of shit to make you lose it
The way it should be done, so I know you won't refuse it
It's on the reel to reely, kick shit on the daily
Grab a 40 hit the floor like I danced at Alvin Ailey
So honey don't front, just winey wine
'Cause a big batty girl stay on my mind
Here's Mr. Splendid, careful when I bend it
Highly recommended flippin' shit like I intended
So here goes the flow, check how it go
And don't act like you don't (you should know)

Ha ha
Next skit, on the stupid shit, this is how we flip the script
Niggas try to follow but come off it
Lone ranger, not afraid of danger
You know the shit is real so don't play me like a stranger
Studda give a cut so precise like a guillotine
The kid ain't Michael son 'cause I'm the one who hit Billie Jean
Quick to say parlay, fond of Bob Marley
You know the 411 hon', we're jammin'
So, clear the road, here comes Mr. Got-It-Going-On
Jump on the mic, grab my pay and after that I'm gone
To Indiana, Virginia or Savannah
A backed up town to give a shout to Susannah
C'mon brothers 'cause you know what I'm talkin' on
Hi, how ya doin', build, hit the joints and then move on
The way we sway makes the others just fade away
The name of this one here is 'Check Tha Resume'
So get with it, 'cause you damn sure won't forget
Huh, you know how it goes (you should know)

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Check the resume yo
Uh, ha ha
Uh, ha ha
Uh, ha ha
Uh, ha ha
Yeah, yeah
On and on and on like this yo
You know what I'm sayin'?
'93 flavor, but we givin' it to you in '92, this is how we do
You know what I'm sayin'? Pumpin' it like this
And this how we move on
Grand Puba, Stud Doogie, Alamo style
Word is bond, big up to the S.O.S., 'cause they do it best
You know what I'm sayin'? Pop in the house, Big Jeff in the house
B.R. in the house, you know what I'm sayin'?
This is how we flowin' it on, time to get gone

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Magical
Ed Sheeran
How would you describe the feeling of being in love? For Ed Sheeran, the word is “Magical.” in HIS three-minute album opener, he makes an attempt to capture the beauty and delicacy of true love with words. He describes the magic of it all over a bright Pop song produced by Aaron Dessner.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
