L.A. Riot Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Now baby I'm far from usual
And you know I don't want no trouble
Not with you
But come on everybody
Y'all done got me started
Quit stalling y'all
It ain't nothing but a party y'all now c'mon
Everybody say shit got damn get off of your ass and jam

Let me hear you say
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
Everybody say shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
Let me hear you say
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
I'm not going to play your silly games no more
Day after day I get closer to the door
I'm sure I just can't take it anymore
What am I supposed to do
Remember I told you
You got to go there to know there
And if you get lost on your path do not despair
Reach out
Ignore what you think and lean on me
I am your beacon of reason
Shining brightly for all those in need
Have no fear
Starchild is here
Let me hear you say shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
I want to hear you say shit got damn get off your ass and jam
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
Keep it moving y'all
Just keep it moving
Don't stop what you're doing
Now do it do it
Can I dance
Watch me move
Watch what I do
Band
Break down
Everybody say shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
I want to hear you say shit got damn get off of your ass and jam y'all
Shit got damn get off of your ass and jam
I am Sir Brain
Unrealistic and egotistic
My thoughts be shifting I don't want your permission
I am gifted
Let me tell you this story it won't take but a minute
Hey are you listening
I feel what I think therefore I don't feel
I get the chills when that Starchild come around
Make me want to get down
I don't like that Nigga his groove ain't real
But back to you uh let's make a deal

You know I'll be fine as long as I get mine
As long as I get mind
