Express Yourself (Edited)

Yo man there's a lot of brothers out there
Flakin' and perpetratin' but scared to kick reality
Man you've been doin' all this dope producing
You ain't had a chance to show 'em what time it is
So what you want me to do?

(Express yourself)
I'm expressin' with my full capabilities
And now I'm living in correctional facilities
Cause some don't agree wit how I do this
I get straight and meditate like a Buddhist
I'm droppin' flavour, my behavior is hereditary
But my technique is very necessary

Blame it on Ice Cube because he said it get funky
When you got a subject and a predicate
Add it on a dope beat and it'll make ya think
Some suckers just tickle me pink to my stomach
Cause they don't flow like this one
You know what, I won't hesitate to diss one or two before I'm through
So don't try to sing this
Song drop science, well I'm droppin' English
Even if Yella, makes it a cappella

I still express yo I don't smoke weed or sess
Cause it's known to give a brother brain damage
And brain damage on the mic don't manage nothing
But making a sucker and you equal
Don't be another sequel express yourself

Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself

Now get back to the PG
That's program and it's easy
Dre is back, New Jacks are made hollow
Expression makes the subject because they like to follow the words
The style, the trend, the records I spin
Again and again and again
Yo yo my other end
Watch a brother blend dope rhymes, with no help

There's no fessin' or guessin' when I'm expressing myself
It's crazy to see people be what society wants 'em to be
But not me
Ruthless is the way to go they know
Others say rhymes that fail to be original
Or they kill where the hip-hop starts
Forget about the ghetto, and rap for the pop charts
And those musicians, that cuss at home

But scared to use profanity when up on the microphone
Yeh they want reality, but you won't hear none
They rather exaggerate a little fiction
Some say no to drugs and take a stand
But after the show
They go looking for the Dope man
Oh they ban my group from the radio here NWA
They say 'Hell no'
But you know it ain't all about wealth
As long as you make a note to express yourself

Express Yourself
Express yourself
Express Yourself
Express Yourself

From the heart if you wanna start and move up the chart then
Expression is a big part of it
You ain't efficient when you flow
You ain't swift moving like a tortoise
Full o' rigor mortis
There's a little bit more to show
I got rhymes in my mind embedded like a embryo
Or a lesson all of them expression
And if you start fessin, i got a smith n weston for ya

I might ignore you're record because it has no bottom
I might get loose in the summer, winter, spring and autumn
It's Dre on the mic getting physical
Doin the job, NWA is the lynch mob!
Inside my cob, let u know you need this
And the knowledge is going just like a fetus
Or tumor, heres the rumour, Dre's in the neighbourhood and he's up to no good

When i start expressing myself, Yella slam me
Cause if i stay funky like this I'm doin damage
Or I'ma be too hype and need a straightjacket
I got knowledge and other suckers lack it
So when you see Dre a DJ on the mic
Ask what it's like, it's like we getting hype tonight
Cause if i strike, It ain't for your good health
But i won't strike if you just Express Yourself

Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
Express yourself
