[Intro: Pharoahe Monch]
Violin is extraordinaire
Uh, Miri Ben Ari
Kanye on the beat
And Pharoahe Monch in your area
About to cause mass hysteria
Let's go
[Chorus]
We can't stop let's go, oh
We are the future, you are the past
Don't get in our way, cause we'll kick your ass
You might be on top now, but time moves fast
Oh oh oh oh oh, we can't stop, let's go
[Verse 1: Pharoahe Monch]
The master speaks, masterfully, what he has mastered
For floors to change, new laws are forecasted
Spittin' in the dirty south, we bi-coastal
Global war and the weapons we choose are pro-tunes
Rap moguls get slapped with vocals
Until they learn this colloquialism, we going postal
It's what I am supposed to do, is appose you
Revolution will stop you thinking that's old school (whoo)
Let me assist you like Malone from [?]
I'm in the cockpit, cocked back and locked in
Indoctrinated with these [?] toxins
Refuse to be labeled, degraded and boxed in
Let's go
[Chorus]
Oh oh, we are the future, oh oh, you are the past
Oh oh, don't get in our way, oh oh, cause we'll kick your ass
Oh oh, you might be on top now, oh oh, but time moves fast
Oh oh oh oh oh, we can't stop, let's go
[Verse 2: Pharoahe Monch]
We put the gospel on wax, sit back through time
Some five years from now is when I can see the rhyme
The future, fuck, you might want to rewind it back
20-0-9, free speech is a crime
You destroy the very planet you inherit from the past
Tomorrow does not accept credit cards and cash
Quick, you need to push Bush stinking ass outta office
Then observe a 40 day fast, for real
So that the darkness will end
Miri sang with strings, Kanye did it again
Pharoahe provides the light but y'all still question the future
The omen to what's destined, oh
[Chorus]
Oh oh, we are the future, oh oh, you are the past
Oh oh, don't get in our way, oh oh, cause we'll kick your ass
Oh oh, you might be on top now, oh oh, but time moves fast
Oh oh oh oh oh, we can't stop, let's go
[Violin solo: Miri Ben-Ari]
[Chorus]
Oh oh, we are the future, oh oh, you are the past
Oh oh, don't get in our way, oh oh, cause we'll kick your ass
Oh oh, you might be on top now, oh oh, but time moves fast
Oh oh oh oh oh, we can't stop, let's go
[Violin outro: Miri Ben-Ari]
