Ordinary people



[ VERSE 1 ]

Oops, I guess I should stop singin and start bringin the funk

The niggeroe sings a rap and have you clappin 

I gets busy, cause I never fall, I excel 

Never takin no shorts, so here's my tall tale

Once upon the clock 

It was hard growing up with no pops

But moms did the supernatural, very

Extra-ordinary 

Person that she is

She finished college, three kids at home cryin

But never got fed up, and kept her head up

'I shoot for the sky' is what she said, it

Got embedded

In my skull 

That's how I got soul 

To reach ya through your speaker

My mother alone helped me to be me

So that's my role model, not an idiot on tv

Used to do it like this

And like that, and like this

But since she never let me join a gang 

I couldn't g thang

So for all her prayers at night under the church steeple

I give thanks to my mother, one of those very extra-ordinary people



[ VERSE 2 ]

Now dig it, 2-(4)-6-8

I guess that I appreciate

And consider that niggas who work hard is the superstars

(Ordinary) people with families, that have kids

Should be put on a pedestal, not average

Treatment for our mother and fathers, and if you ask me

I'll say: you put your family first, before an athlete

But everybody wanna be somebody special, who

Can grab a microphone, or put a ball through a hoop

And it's okay to like Mike

Even I would, if I drank Gatorade

But I'm too busy funkin your trunk with all this 808

To worry about that, I'm worried bout this 

If you agree, then pump your fist

If you're proud (Say it loud!)

To show you're pissed

Off at the news and media, because they swear

That all black people are menaces and holler and cheer

But since there's so many others that want justice, I know we will 

Start respectin others as brothers and come together, all of the...

Ordinary people



[ VERSE 3 ]

Ordinary people make the world turn

I learned that if you work hard in life 

Then it counts the way the balls bounce

I wrote this to give a message, I'll be glad if it 

Switches your goal from bein a gangsta to a graduate

And if you listened close to what I said, you learned a lesson, and

Heard that all the average Jones' are no greater, or no lesser than

Stars, cause all we all are is equal

So shut off your tv set, and show respect to some of the...
