We're all stars and we highly evolved Hip-Hop, it's not pop like Kylie Minogue If it bang, them gettin' busy brothers probably involved In the game, where everybody got a shottie to draw I guess you probably a thug, you boss ballin' or what? I can't call it man, I got the ladies fallin' in love Cause handsome, intelligent, tough I'm all the above I know you knew it it's the movement Groove to it while you doin' it up Go all-star, and get down for yours To the ladies in the house, we proud of y'all You got the, Roots crew with the sound of course High, lift 'em up high, okay Go all-star, and get down for yours To the ladies in the house, we proud of y'all You got the, Roots crew with the sound of course High, lift 'em up high, okay Introducing the band you gotta see to believe He got the mic in his hand, so keep the heat up your sleeve It's Black Thought, he rockin' sharp so the speakers'll bleed I run a triathlon, you wouldn't see me fatigued I'm a star, and maybe y'all should cop something to be Or trade some of y'all equipment in for something you need Cause it's a, lot of bullshit floodin' the scene Where everybody's a star, and hot shit is few and far between We lose the grip of what, garbage mean Shorties want to be themselves, I know it's hard to be Don't want to do the Ruben Studdard and come off less threatening Keepin' it real I'll kill you if you end up lettin' it Ain't it blowin' your mind how the game all in line Now the best, to the rest, we fin' to end up settin it I'd tell you that I was a veteran but it's evident You act like you want it, you gonna' end up gettin' it Go all-star, and get down for yours To the ladies in the house, we proud of y'all You got the, Roots crew with the sound of course High, lift 'em up high, okay Go all-star, and get down for yours To the ladies in the house, we proud of y'all You got the, Roots crew with the sound of course High, lift 'em up high, okay Go all-star, and get down for yours To the ladies in the house, we proud of y'all You got the, Roots crew with the sound of course High, lift 'em up high, okay Everybody is a star
