En Focus
De La Soul

Biofeedback


Ya go beats, meats, son sheep

I can't cook but being a cook

I'm servin' much to eat

I got multiple stabs of jazzy


Sassafrassy as I caught the fame of soul

Years after mama had me tell ya gladly

I plugged for the Tunin'

Which cause eyes to zoom in


Which put your person into focus

No longer Kelvin Mercer but the Posdnuos

Plug One, yo, I found fun in the scribblin' of speak

On a naked white sheet

Most recognized by my dark brown self

Yo, you found some wealth?


More in my mind than in my pocket

But I's got every Girbaud that ever sagged

I met some hoes, met some girls

Did a tour that took me all around the world

Did a tour that took me all around the world


I hit the shines but I'm shooin' it now

Remember when the floor might have had a spine

Well, it's all bent over

The DayGlo nigga gets the red door mat

It's a roller coaster when your shit's burnt toast


Now Mr. Club owner knows your jam

When your jam is tha jam

And there's a tab at the bar, my mindstate's great

No thanks I don't drink, I sip the bobo


Then I kettle it quick

I felt the heave in the jeave

Tap it in the basement

Diggin' my own understanding quick


Let me get the single out

Think Mr. Radio say the starlight

Is the same star bright


I'm thinkin' how a nine and a blunt is a switch

But turn out the lights and some will go bitch

It was one MC after one MC

Play the lamp post do the blow wit dynamite


Well, it's okay and it's alright

'Cause our birthday cake's external light

It'll all get graphic

People made of plastic


Look at the shine wit my 50 watt eye

But when I got the eye patch, I hit the latch

I fame it to a name from Denver up to Maine

And lovin' deluxe, she won't catch me in no tux

Nah, man I won't honor the style


Curious, curious, curious, curious

Curious, curious, curious, curious


Funny, funny how time flies

When you have some light on the face

'Cause the focus is the fickle

'Stead of fusin', I'm a use it


To the utilize the trickle caught the rush

But I play hush, while Andres Titus is the grabbin'

As a fan will put the hearts to mush


Lush Dalea would hear the public beat

The same way for Titus when he Blacked the Sheep

But as the Knee went Deep, too deeper off the charts

The album faded to black, that's when the amnesia starts


Curious, curious, curious

Curious, curious, curious


Hey boy, I watch that star man, shit's all in

Should I shot it or begin

I saw bootleggas no shinin'

I saw Big 4 go get shinin'


A typical flick was the moment

When the man said

Ain't you? Yeah, I is I'm

Hush your mouth fallin' in cog

Caught the light being True dog


A fist of funk and I pocket that screen

In the scene or in between

Gimme but a little bit of the starlight

I mail my ass to the darkness


I dig it, I dug it, I dig it, I dug it

I wiz it, I was it, I wiz it, I was it

Oh, Lord let me switch it off

Because ya find some'll do it all, for the light


Stop jivin'
