Now this is a
State of the
Union
Address
To those with a musical interest
From the
Minister of
Argument and
Reasoning,
Honourable
Mr.
Shained
O .M.
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Femme foundation,
deep and solid we with
Rough and rugged me coming,
rough and rugged
Femme foundation, deep and solid
Long time I'm on a watch and for
a very long time I've waited
Me in time and between time
uplick a things I have created
Inna de lyrics laboratory that's
where I experimented
But before the final product come
around it's gotta be tested
Then and only then will I approve
and be contented
Why?
Because the product is ex
tremely educated
Well that is one of the reason
why me get sophisticated
Cause some people are picky while
some folks are open minded
And some of them are hard to
please and very complicated
But one way or another everybody
should be respected
Cause rough and rugged we
coming rough and rugged
Fill me foundation deep and solid
with rough and rugged
I'm coming rough and rugged
Fill me foundation deep and solid
Now before I say what I have to say,
it's thoroughly contemplated
Any mistake that I should make
is immediately corrected
Cause in
Hadesia business I am totally devoted
Time and energy was invested so
that it could be perfected
And by
Jah I was anointed,
that is why I'm motivated
No man from the land can stop it
cause it must be manifested
Carefully selected,
very keenly designated
Grammatically perfect,
every word is properly stated
You hear it back a million times
but still you can't believe it
Just like an electric circuit with
the voltage overloaded
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Fumi foundation, deep and solid
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Fumi foundation, deep and solid
Right before your very eyes it
will be demonstrated
When I done with this here
dub it shall be mutilated
Dub when I rock up then up,
dub when I bend up crack are melted
Seeing is believing and that
cannot be disputed
The mouth is quicker than the
eyes so don't be fascinated
Boy sometimes the selector
pull it up before I even start it
I suppose that's how it goes whenever
something is requested
Adjust the vibe to keep it alive
and get the crowd excited
Enjoy yourself tonight and feel
alright and get acquainted
To each and every positive,
your style is dedicated
Zoom!
Rough and rugged,
we're coming rough and rugged
Through the foundation,
deep and sully we wait
Rough and rugged,
we're coming rough and rugged
Give me foundation, deep and solid
No record after record,
that's vibes are generated
Inna your mind and inna your body,
the music penetrated
Like the blood that's inna your vein,
the rubber duck is circulated
It cannot be avoided,
cause the music you're addicted
The more you hear the rhythm is,
the more you get affected
The more you think about it is,
the more you get persuaded
Just take a look around you,
you are totally surrounded
And when me start to bubble,
it simply cannot be avoided
Fully comprehending and
unanimously accepted
Disco new wave funky lovers
bound to be converted
Cause rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Zoom,
Femi
Foundation, deep and solid
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Femi
Foundation, deep and solid
The original every time,
the fraud I've never perpetrated
Argument for days and extra days
cannot be contradicted
Poetry personified and
well coordinated
Uniquely deliberated and
profoundly meditated
A word of warning to the wise because
already some are tempted
Pirates try your best cause this
cannot be duplicated
It's extremely difficult to say so
stealing's not suggested
You could be arrested if you're
not already demented
Brought before a court,
found guilty and convicted
And then you'd be a pirate that
the world forgot existed
Cause rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Feel me foundation, deep and solid
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Feel me foundation, deep and solid
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Fill me foundation, deep and solid
Rough and rugged we coming,
rough and rugged
Fill me foundation, deep and solid
Well me say rough and rugged,
well me say rough and rugged
Fill me foundation, deep and solid
Shinehead
