Lyrics: Hah respect! All crew all massive everywhere in the world You practice the art of hip hop This goes out to every boy and every girl Give me relief! I sing! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! Check it All beef can be squashed if you want it But instead of forgiveness ego you flaunt it Everybody gets into two or three quarrels Leadin to a squabble, someone will die tomorrow Life is not a thing you can borrow All beefs don't have to lead to sorrow will ya, go out tomorrow I think, you should think about the beef you got And confront your enemy before it gets too hot Never feel ashamed, to say, "Yo G I'm sorry I apologize," the object is to stay alive I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan and I shouldn't have to run from a black man I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan and I shouldn't have to run from a black man Yeah! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! He said she said, but she said she didn't Face gets hit, and then, bullets start spittin No one's admittin to their wrong doing, unfittin revenge we're pursuin, look at what you're doin, LISTEN Release the calm and that should carry it Be a mental vegetarian indulge in no beefs, like the fish in the aquarium, you'll enjoy it while you're tryin it There is no seperation between the mind and the environment Like a bolt of lightning I'm givin 5000 volts of the occult while I'm writin and recitin I've come to enlighten black and white to the meaningless fightin Clash of the titans ain't right and it's wrong so the song reflects for too long we've been vexed at each other Every sister, every brother.. You've gots ta LOVE one another I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan and I shouldn't have to run from a black man I never ran from the Klu Klux Klan and I shouldn't have to run from a black man Yeah! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! Check it Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! Ha hah Give me relief! (That's right) Squash all beef! If I ruled the schools, from pole to pole the entire judicial system would fold I would get rid of the books cause they bogus and in school, Knowledge of Self would be the focus Kids would flock to the schools like locusts Cause school now relates to them, and you would notice violence in society would be a minimal Cause the education yeah, would now be metaphysical Not livin by laws, but livin by principal If you disobey, the UNIVERSE gets with you We would study giving so no one would steal And we would read each other's magnetic fields Petty crimes times petty crimes equals prison for lifetimes The universe divided by two equals me and you Me and you, go into the universe once or as one united front But listen up, when I was growin up in hip-hoppin we had a thing called Jailhouse Boxin That's why I'm STILL here rockin cause my competition never pulled a Glock in, yeah Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! Yeah! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! I sing! Give me relief! Squash all beef! Don't let these arguments destroy us! Whattup Sadat X?
