Mind And Da Body Lyrics

1st verse:
I gotta give my all,cooperate with my thoughts
My body told my brain that he think they ought to fought
I hope he don't get caught 'cause the flesh be doing thangs
Like have me spending money and chasing after dames
'Cause ain't shit changed but the taxes and the slanging
And every kid in the city just wanna join the gang
But why must I take control of obscenities
You play me on the low but the flow will make you mention me
On the smooth tip 'cause I clock a cool grip
I warned ya about the formula,take a sip
The chemicals in my lab will make you go and grab your pad
Some say he won't, I'm hip to all the drag (?)
But I guess my destiny won't let the rest of me
Crumble in the flames that's definite reality
I got no need for extra hostility
But that's in effect of the mind and the body

Hook(x2):
You know life is just a dream
I still deal with reality
The mind and the body

2nd verse:
My mind sometimes be giving signs to my heart
My body is a trip,he wanna rip them apart
They wanna argue should I start to fornicate?
My consсience says "B,you gonna make a mistake
You need to take a break and just try and settle down"
My body says "Shut up,grab a brew and just clown!"
What do I do now? I'm in between right and wrong
My body is running shit so my brain got to go
I'm healthy,wealthy,I got to move on
My personality is telling me his opinion
He says "I know,B,that you're on a mission
And I understand,you wanna peep suckas and diss 'em"
Now what's the difference between right and wrong?
And if you don't know ,well, I hope you live long
But life is the same old song if you don't comprehend
'Cause that's in effect on the mind and body once again
Hook(x2):
You know life is just a dream
I still deal with reality
The mind and the body

3rd verse:
My brain controls the soul,keep my body on patrol
It don't let me rest so it keeps me on the go
I'm never moving slow,it's always time to react
My head starts spinning when my body go attack
It's like I'm living in a trap and my heart don't pump slack
Ain't no turning back so I'm rolling to the end
Of the road till I'm old and my knees can't bend
I make myself my friend no telling who can I trust
My brain and my body just decided to discuss
His thoughts is lust but they're hidden in the dust
The situation that I'm facing, could it be frustration?
My muscles ache from total devastation
People are amazed that we're God's creation
To the world boys and girls ain't no need for perpetrating
You might be hesitating if you don't comprehend
But that's in effect of the mind and the body once again

Hook(x3):
You know life is just a dream
I still deal with reality
The mind and the body
