Get It Right (feat. Tuomo)

Baby I got to get it right Baby I got to get it right If I don't get it right the first time I don't get it right the last timee To feel blessed or pass a similar test Would ease my disease of subliminal stress Mad duress, man it was rippin' the flesh Right down to bone, bite it, put up my best fight Now write it down and make a note to self If it's a violent crowd, don't let it overwhelm Amidst a strident pounding, I'd approach a realm Of quiet calm, cool collected I disarm fools and let shit just Speak for itself, and if the people rebel they can Evil's inevitable need of a helping hand Has never been, or is, a matter of opinion They're peddling us fears just to battle for dominion To see the devil in your peers, a greedy devil in yourself Quite a task, like assembling a shelf All available help, all able hands on deck Then shape-shift, the same shit is transforming Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first Get it right the first time Or get it right the last time (2x) My back is aching, there's a terrible tension I can't take it, can't make it as the center of attention naked For all the world to see or boldly go imposing Their cameras, binoculars, and all they poke their nose in Now I've frozen here, there's only holes where there was previously Yo's and yeah's, all kinds of flows that opened ears No posing here, just keeping it real, there's nothing more severe Than being informed but dressed in the wrong clothes and gear Who knows if we're worthless and slowly erased Supposing there's no purpose or a holier place I know despair, have had my share of blows in the face And a healthy dose of fear assures me I won't be replaced But I get distracted by the fact that I was that distraught What I lacked was practice and my back was always smacked and sore Slapped and scorned, strapped and adorned with a patch of cactus thorns I'll act as strong as I can for a man of cracks and flaws And the nearer the action draws I'll disappear if I lack support You got my back? I got your back And that's a fact 'Cause I react And get it right in a flash for y'all I got no fear and my ass is gone Before they see me, I'm asking Yo, you got my back? I got your back Then it's a pact Cadillac We'll get it right in a flash for y'all Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first Get it right the first time Or get it right the last time Man, it's laughable, isn't it? Imagine if you put your clothes on Just to find out that half of them didn't fit Or if you simply got too passive and didn't hit While everyone around was making masses and living big Our past disasters can only last as long as We don't ask for answers, or keep our asses backwards Like a lonely caravan that's rollin' past Damascus A Harry Callahan frozen moment in absence Of motion and color, just a damned perpetual ocean of other That we're supposed to discover Are you close to your brother or emotionally scattered And what made human contact so explosive a matter Too sensitive to even poke with a ten foot pole Get intimate on the internet and elope with a centerfold Hope can ascend and throw us down on a bending slope No final blow in the event that the end is slow, whoa! Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first time Get it right get it right the first Get it right the first time Or get it right the last time (4x)
