lyrics

Yea, uh, and if you didn’t know
It’s the S-K-Y-W-A-L-K-E-R, Skywalker baby!
I wanna shout out, to poets and the writers out there
…That understand the power of words

I don’t do the Left Thing, I Do the Right Thing//
I’m a MC, yea I Do the Write Thing//
…Yea, and I don’t know if your heard//
But actions speak louder words//
So I move like water, and leave hell soaking//
My Body Language is Articulate, Well Spoken//
Proper, you can hear it with your eyes//
If you’re blind, it looks like the Holy Spirit in disguise//
Wow, so peep the Dialogue in my right palm//
I could Record it on your cheek - Right on//
…..But I don’t entertain violence//
So, I’m Hold my Right and Remain Silent//
….And not speak about war//
I’ma speak about peace, can we speak about yours?//
…..I let mine flow from within//
My flesh is the pad and my soul is the pen//

Chorus (x2):
I do the Write Thing, I do the Write Thing//
I gotta story to tell, I do the Write Thing//
……….So, write on player//
Write on, player-player, write on//

My flesh is the pad and my soul is the pen//
Peep my Penmanship//
I’m so Literate//
Pay attention, this is Reading Comprehension//
So, if you Read me Wrong, then you’re Illiterate//
….You’re confused about who I am//
….And quite frankly, I don’t give a damn//
….Don’t Judge, be inspired//
I’m Living Poem, God’s my Ghostwriter//
…My soul is the pen, so the Ink doesn't Dry//
Meaning, I don’t die//
….Because I have the Right to Live//
In the Book of Life, you gotta Write to Live//
……So you can live like me and you can write like me//
But not quite like me//
Cuz Identity Theft is a major Crime//
You can Imitate, but don’t Plagiarize//

Chorus (x2):

The right things don’t require an apology//
So, if you do the right things then you oughta be//
Unapologetic - check it//
I Do the Write Thing like a Journalist – heh, respect it//
Get it right, so I don’t have to Correct you//
Everyone makes Mistakes but a select few//
I made a few Errors, but I was Rough Drafting//
To make a True Story with enough passion//
Worth a few accolades that last for days//
So I can give God credit on Half of Page//
Of my story as keeps on moving//
And I learn what’s right in the company of wrongdoings//
....So, here’s a little a commentary//
Do the right thing but don’t criticize the contrary//
…..Everybody is an Open Book//
…..And Planet Earth is a Library//

Chorus (x4):
