Rockit Man by Zion I Lyrics
[Verse 1: The Grouch]
The truth is hard to swallow, baby, get a bigger bottle
You ain't going full throttle, this'll make you crawl, though
Inside is where we all know what's right and wrong, I'll draw slow
Let the flaws go 'til they grow into a model
Then everybody follows even though foundation's hollow
Like thinking you're a father just because you made a daughter
Or daily chasing dollars, now that ain't it, we all know
I could be a baller, rather answer my call though
I'm raw, yo, spit how it was saw, so
We ain't gonna lose, it ain't the shoes, and it ain't all the smoke
Mirrors see you clearer, start with you just like Michael did
I could change a world with this music more than rifles, shoot
It's a gift, it's a curse, talking 'bout your birth, now whatcha worth
Not in gold but in your soul, mature it and we could flourish
Lately we've been discouraged, un-cherished and malnourished, repeat it
Like you a parrot, regurgitate like other birds
So far from just some words, if we're assertive we'll be heard
What's the verdict? What's deserved? So what if I struck a nerve?
I suck if it's just a curve, that ruckus is just a blur
Won't last past the blast off, I'm on to other worlds
[Hook: Silk-E]
This one goes out to you
All my soldiers around the world
Put your ones up in the air, if you
If you are a rockit man
Said I am a rockit man
Rockit man (ooh)
Rockit man
[Verse 2: Zumbi]
Hold tight, I'm melanin, listen what I'm telling ya
Solomon was wise but too many wives was killing him
Learn to be a rockit, we exist at subatomic
Levels, all them devils that you keep in your pocket
Return to they sender, getting burned in your optic
Now the cycle has a logic, some would call it cosmic
Shoot it like a rockit man, I adopt a proper plan
Am I prepared? Where? Future world is here
Up out of this atmosphere, yeah, but I still see clear (yeah)
Spread more love, no fear in here, gotta be sure as we get near
Coming up on a higher zone, know you'll never be alone
Feel the bass within your dome, when I'm in space I feel at home
I'm in another dimension
We hold the key to this life's destiny
I'm a lost dream haunting around your city
OG's, spreading the seeds, we seek peace
[Hook]
[Outro: Silk-E]
Fly until I reach the sun
Touch the stars, just 'til dawn
I'm a rockit, I'm a rockit man
Hop up on my shoulder blades
We can soar for days and days
I'm a rockit, I'm a rockit man
The truth is hard to swallow, baby, get a bigger bottle
You ain't going full throttle, this'll make you crawl, though
Inside is where we all know what's right and wrong, I'll draw slow
Let the flaws go 'til they grow into a model
Then everybody follows even though foundation's hollow
