(I’mma deal with a bigger insult, man 
The heat, the heat, the heat, the heat… 
It's comin' down hard 
We’ve got to get our shit together) 
It’s time to go left and not right 
Gotta get it together forever 
Gotta get it together for brothers 
Gotta get it together for sisters 
For mothers and fathers and dead niggas 
For non-conformers, won’t hear the quitters 
For Tyson types and Che figures 
Let’s get it together, come on, let’s make it 
Gotta make it to make it to make it to make it 
To make something happen, to make something happen 
To make something happen, let’s make something happen 

Word to Phife, we’re gonna bring it to the overlord 
Drinkin’ Sisqo chilling with the gold microphone cords 
And we grip our balls every time we stuntin’ on tour 
'Cause we never bored, respond until the ready crowds roar 
And promoters try to hit us with the art of war 
We about our business, we not quitters, not bullshitters, we deliver 
We go-getters, don’t be bitter 'cause we not just niggas 

Jarobi might fire off into different cloth 
Ain’t nothing forbidden [?] is hittin' off 
Hardest spitting, this sit-in will make you kitten-soft 
Confused and amazed [?] ya brain, lost our planet for our future people 
None of our people involved 
Pouring Henny and Smirnoff to get it cracking off 
Cracking off a Smirnoff to quickly turn to Molotov 
Molotov the spaceship though before that bitch is taking off 
It always seems the poorest persons are people forsaken, dawg 
No Washingtons, Jeffersons, Jacksons on the captain's log 
They’d rather lead us to the grave, water poisoned, deadly smog 
Mass un-blackening, it’s happening, you feel it y’all? 
They’d rather see we in a three-by-three structure with many bars 
Leave us where we are so they can play among the stars 
We’re taking off to Mars, got the space vessels overflowing 
What, you think they want us there? All us niggas not going 

Reputation ain’t glowing, reparations ain’t flowing 
If you find yourself stuck in the quick, you better start rowing 
Used to see the TV screen as the place I’d land my dream 
And the car stereo where they would promote the show 
Optimistic flow, brother really know 

There ain’t a space program for niggas 
Yeah, you stuck here, nigga 
There ain’t a space program for niggas 
Yeah, you stuck here nigga 
There ain’t a space program for niggas 
Yeah, you stuck here, nigga 
There ain’t a space program for niggas 
Yeah, you stuck, stuck, stuck 

Sit and wonder sometimes, I read the paper every day 
All these happenings is circular, just happen different ways 
And the present is refined, in her wings she's confined 
With about thirty Percocets and five bottles of wine 
Caroline ain't nothing finer than a Black woman who climbs 
To the top of the State building claiming that the flag is mine 
Now, people on top of people, feels like we can’t breathe 
Put so much in this muthafucka, feel like we should lead 
Put it on TV, put it in movies, put it in our face 
These notions and ideas and citizens live in this age 
I chuckle just like all of y'all, absurdity, after all 
Takes money to get it running and money for trees to fall 
Imagine for a second all the people are colored, please 
Imagine for a second all the people in poverty 
No matter the skin tone, culture or time zone 
Think the ones who got it would even think to throw you a bone? 
Moved you out your neighbourhood, did they find you a home? 
Not safer, probly no place to 
Imagine if this shit was really talkin’ about space, dude 
Imagine if this shit was really talkin’ about space, dude 
Imagine if this shit was really talkin’ about space, dude 

Tryna go left and not right

Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen 
Gotta get it together for brothers

Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen

Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen 
Gotta get it together forever 
Gotta get it together for brothers 
Gotta get it together for sisters 
For mothers and fathers and dead niggas 
For non-conformers, won’t hear the quitters 
For Tyson types and Che figures 
Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen 
Gotta get it together for brothers

For mothers and fathers and dead niggas 
For non-conformers, won’t hear the quitters 
For Tyson types and Che figures 
Make, make, make 
Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen 
Let’s make somethin’ happen, let’s make somethin’ happen 

The danger must be growing, for the rowers keep on rowing 
And they’re certainly not showing any signs that they are slowing! 
We’re there 
Where? 
Here 
A small step for mankind 
But a giant step for us 
Oompa, loompa, doopa dee doo 
I’ve got another puzzle for you
