Feel The Music
Baybe / Guru / Paul Ferguson Lyrics

Music!
An exclamation to emphasize the importance and power of music

Times like this make me clench my fist
Difficult moments can cause anger but music can provide a sense of relief

Then I'm caught up in the midst of the musical bliss
Music has the ability to transport and immerse the listener in a state of euphoria

Guru, blow a kiss to the ladies in my corner
Addressing a possible romantic interest and using music to convey affection

Caress the mic, and kick my game like I want to
Taking ownership of the performance and creating an authentic, personal experience for the audience

What? You never see the brother Guru falter
A statement of confidence and assurance in one's abilities

Respect is due; praise me like the altar
Acknowledging the importance of respect and admiration for one's skills and accomplishments

The crew - we're as true as they come, son
Emphasizing loyalty and reliability within a group or community

We come from ill life experience, and take rap serious
Acknowledging that personal struggles and hardships can inspire and inform one's artistry

Feel the music
A call to action to connect with the power and energy of music

We hold the key to our destiny
The belief that one can control their own fate and future outcomes

Just free your mind; sit back, relax, and unwind
Encouraging listeners to let go of negative thoughts and simply enjoy the present moment through music

To a higher plane, we're going
The transformative and transcendent nature of music - it can elevate our emotions and thoughts

Can you feel the music?
A rhetorical question to encourage listeners to engage with the music on a deeper level

Original baldhead Crooklynite, rudebwoy instructor
An introduction that highlights one's unique identity and background

I came back to lay down law to the suckers
Asserting one's authority and influence with regards to their craft

I'll crush ya if you ain't actin' like my brother
Emphasizing the importance of trust and camaraderie within a community or group

Make one false move and with the mic I'll bust ya
Using music as a form of retribution or punishment for those who break the unspoken rules of the community

Just lay back, and feel the music
Encouraging listeners to relax and let the music take them on a journey

When I step into the club, I come to do work
A statement affirming one's dedication and commitment to their craft

No hesitation because I'm fully alert
A demonstration of focus, discipline, and readiness in the face of challenges

Like Max Julien, I'm an authentic mack
A comparison to a prominent figure in pop culture to convey one's confidence and swagger

Many others can't compare; I'll bet on that
Asserting one's superiority and excellence compared to others in the same field

Dialect and vocal tone, completely exact
Describing one's unique style and delivery with precision and accuracy

I react, then I max in this mellow track
Demonstrating spontaneous creativity and improvisation within a musical composition

In fact I'm knockin' emcees out the frame
A boastful statement about one's ability to dominate and excel in their craft

'Cause I'm smooth like jazz
A comparison to a musical genre known for its sophistication, elegance, and coolness

Guru is my name
An introduction and assertion of one's identity and artistic persona

New reality - a higher level of consciousness
Music's ability to transcend and awaken our minds to new ideas and perspectives

Don't play yourself; get out of line and get stomped with this
A warning against arrogance, laziness, or complacency in one's artistic pursuits

Negativity is a chronic disease
Recognizing the harmful effects of negative energy and emotions on one's artistic output and personal well-being

But I'm like the cure, causin' infections to freeze
Asserting one's ability to counteract negativity and influence others in a positive way

I'm not gonna let up until you get the picture
A commitment to educating and enlightening others through music

My sound gets around, so you know I'm always with ya
Music's ability to transcend physical boundaries and connect people from different backgrounds and cultures

Music!
An exclamation to emphasize the importance and power of music
