Lyrics

That's when you know a group is hip

Parents recognize a trendy group when they comment on it

Is when your parents say

Highlighting the parents' perspective on the hip culture

What is it with the hippy, the hip, hip, hippy glows?

Playful reference to the hip culture and its language

And you can't understand a word they are sayin'

Difficulty understanding the language or message of the hip culture


Back on up, back on up, oh yeah, back on up

Repeated encouragement to make space or give way

Back on up, back on up, oh yeah, back on up

-

Back on up, back on up, oh yeah, back on up

-

Back on up, back on up, oh yeah, back on up

-

Oh yeah, back on up

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Preparing to assert themselves, asking for space to make moves

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

My long range aim is dedicated to change

Expressing dedication to bringing about positive change through rhymes, guided by divine intervention

Persist to twist brains with rhymes, only God can explain

-

Attain divine intervention if your attentions arrested

-

Imprisoned and in position to listen to lessons given

-

Gotta make moves steadily, heavily bruising these dudes

-

We got the gift, but abuse tools misleading these youths see

-

My birthright is light in the darkness of night

-

To lead the lost paying the price of sacrificing my life

-

I've been sittin' and contemplating waiting anxiously peeking

Reflecting on the deeper reasons behind their music and its impact

Perception of these releases embracing the deeper reasons

-

Of timing and perfect season believing this thing is bigger

-

Than faces and sound scan reaching for the completion

-

Of purpose in promised land watchin' behind the curtain

-

For certain the game is hurtin' looking for some solution

-

Searchin' for revolution like music is the conclusion

-

Refusing to look at life a livin' for forward movement

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Reiteration of the need for space to make significant moves

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Continued emphasis on the importance of making moves and creating space

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

Move cowards, move all you cowards move

Encouraging those who are hesitant or fearful to move forward

Move cowards, move all you cowards move

-

Move cowards, move all you cowards move

-

He scared, she scared and if you scared then move

-

Oh God, don't let me act up, I feel a fit comin' on

Personal struggle with emotions and reactions to what's happening

My conniption's, my conviction's reaction to what's goin' on

-

My rebuttal's far from subtle, take you there just like a shuttle

-

Gather round the huddle embrace the pace

-

I spit at give it a kiss and cuddle

-

Boy what's that there you sayin'?

Playful response to someone saying too much, asserting power

I'm tight like the shorts that men look gay in

-

Oh Lordy, you don' said too much

-

My slightest touch is a cobra clutch

-

Let it be known, we are the epitomy of strange and bizarre

Describing themselves as unique and unconventional, challenging societal norms

Switchin' up and change our repertoire

-

Come discover who we are, wreaking havoc on Satan's mavericks

-

Through a labyrinth filled with nooks and crannies

-

An elite group called the factors

-

We like the X-Men so uncanny, imagine looking

-

Up seeing the plastered ceiling cracking, it ain't because

-

We broke, we lost our minds for God provoked and crazy actin'

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Reiterating the intention to swell, catch attitude, and make moves

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Continued emphasis on the commission to make moves and maintain attitude

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Reiteration of the call to make room and continue with their unique actions

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, it's what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

Make room, 'cause we about to start swelling

Stressing the ongoing need to create space and make unconventional moves

Catching attitude, get buck sweat it up

-

And really lose cool, its' what we been commissioned to do

-

So back on up and give me room, we gotta keep makin' moves

-

The beat is so crazy

Expressing enthusiasm for the unique and intense beat of the music
