about

Recorded Live from the former 700 club where I first performed in Seattle, WA on June 10, 1999. Backed by the best improv musicians (we jammed one night prior though I had played with bassist Lonnie Meganut in LA twice before) I just channeled my boundless artistry championing the inner confidence it takes to prove doubters wrong or worse right. The amazing Reggie Watts on keys before he was TV famous and went on to sing vocals and hooks for me a decade later on lps Rejuvenation and Dear Abbey (also before he blew blew). Drummer Michael Shreaves played with Santana at Woodstock when he was only 15 yrs young. DJs Insult 2 Injury held down the decks with percussionist Dred I on hand skins. A magical night for all in attendance. From 3:41 I used lyrics from "The Movement ft. MC Trey and Phoenix off the A-Team Lab Down Under LP. We had just returned April '99 from recording it while touring Australia.

lyrics

(From 1:07)
You'll eat those words
That's what I felt like telling 'em
Ugh
I set the table use napkins silverware
We dine fine China but 1st bless the food with prayer
And then we all eat dinner
Have a plate and conversate
About our lives and situations
And we could all relate

Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle
Gourmet buffet souffle

Flambe etouffee Bay leave seasoning
Manifesting with the bredren reasoning
And we should bring it all to the cypher
When we all eating dinner
So we all can decipher
Any problems front and center
My heart's in something
I'm wanting you to approve
Love ones don't front when
They say what they think you should do
You should just get a job
Why are you underground
You should've finished school
When will you buckle down
Is this gon' ever stop
When will you cut your hair
Knock knock to the knock knock
Knock knock knock knock is someone there
Your youthful fire
It wants to prove them wrong
Burning desire
Part of what makes you strong
Don't you run away from truth Little Boy
You say you will but where's your proof that you'll make noise
You'll eat those words
I'm gonna make u eat them - agh!
You'll eat those you'll eat those you'll
Don't deny a man a try
You'll eat those words
You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
You'll eat - don't deny a man

My heart beats faster than a speeding bullet
Don't shoot me down quick or take the trigger pull it
Our blood runs thicker than the ocean water
Show 'em proper love from a mother father
Son and daughter sister brother
Sometimes all we have there is each other
I'll always keep it true for our music lovers
No love for these majors 'cause they don't love us
They don't trust us 'cause we ain't no suckas
We don't just roll over and let 'em fuck us
They say without you it's impossible for me to be heard
But before the new millennium you'll eat those words
Words...words

You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
Don't deny a man

My heart beats faster than a speeding bullet
Don't shoot me down quick or take the trigger pull it
Our blood runs thicker than the ocean water
Show 'em proper love from a mother father
Son and daughter sister brother
Sometimes all we have there is each other
I'll always keep it true for my music lovers
Much love for the movement and those who love us
Wooo!

When I feel it coming I get so anxious
Ugh - check it - one more thing to share with yall
Ugh
When I feel it coming I get so anxious
At the speed of light light
Shifts through my body takes me through changes
And we gravitate towards a fire circle and get to dancing
And we activate drums the fire brings the rain from dancing
And it feels so free man woman come together and prosper
Built on trust like an oak tree deep rooted Rasta
And we learn so much from each other
And while we're stuck in the here and now
God bless every motherless child
Change the way of the pedophile
Don't put me on pedestal
Jealousy waiting to mess with you
Why are they disrespectful
Just so they can be getting ahead of you
Think they are better than you never forget
What you did how you did it
The way it was done from where you came
You got there and you're the blame
If something goes wrong and you can't sing the same old sad song
Don't play no games don't play no games
When it feels good it's pleasure
When it hurts bad it's pain
No pain no gain no pain no gain
No pain no gain don't play no

My heart beats faster than a speeding bullet
Don't shoot me down quick or take the trigger pull it
Our blood runs thicker than the ocean water
Show 'em proper love from a mother father
Son and daughter sister brother
Sometimes all we have there is each other
I'll always keep it true for my music lovers
Much love for the movement and those who love us
Love us...for those who don't

You'll eat those you'll eat those
For those who don't
You'll eat - don't deny a man a try
You'll eat those words
You'll eat those you'll eat those
You'll eat those words
You'll eat - don't deny a man a try

Don't deny a man a try
Don't deny a woman a try
Don't deny anyone a try
To do what they feel is best for themselves
Am I right about it?
Ugh - ugh - ugh - yeah - yeah
