Where I'm From (remix) Lyrics - Digable Planets

Spaces and places we fly 

Kicks are for places and spaces we fly 

Space and all the fat places we fly 

Butter, baby to the jet in the cut, dig it 

Boogie jive and rap is life where I'm from 

Where I'm from, I might play with Izzy where I'm from 

Where I'm from, it be like, "Run your coat black" 

Jupiter, keeps her fat beats by the pack 

Where I'm from, nappy hair is life 

We be reading Marx where I'm from 

The kids be rockin' Clarks, where I'm from 

You turn around your cap, you talk over a beat 

And dig some sounds boomin' out a jeep 

Where I'm from, cocoons hide the youth, swoon units 100 proof 

You want some beef, they will cut you some 

Where I'm form, the beats is infinite where I'm from 

Voodoo, ashubani, gangsta, lean where I'm from 

I'm interplanetary, my insect movements vary 

It's kinky if it's hair, G, where I'm from 

The fire hoses blow, it's purple wind and snow 

I do a hit and go, split 

It's hip, what's hip? When hip is just the norm 

'Cause Planets pledge allegiance to the funk in all it's forms 

The kinks, the dance, the prints in all the shirts 

My grandmother told my mother it's Africa at work 

On vibes, we freak, them universal beats 

You find it at the spot, you hit at ends of every week 

We twist, exist to spin the maddest hits 

Up here funk is our neighbor, so we paid her a visit 

The lip we sip, can't house the nine zips 

For rock we can't do nothin', for this we come equipped 

Off disc, off tape, rap blastin' till from 8 

The really, truly, fat the fly on the flip 

Cocoa gotta know, how Planets, gotta roll 

Speak the mega cool, get funky as a goal 

It's calm, relax, we're only some new jacks 

That acts from the funk 

But don't play the role 

Where you from? 

Spaces and places we fly 

Pop it to places and spaces we fly 

Space and all the hit places we fly, yeah 

Money was the haps, underneath my naps, come 

Weekend 'Dig Plans', got T's where I'm from 

Where I'm from, it's Collins 13 where I'm from 

Where I'm from, brothers took the beat and got fly 

Why? That's most asked by 85, where I'm from 

Fakin' the funk you get did 

Projects, tenements, pyramids 

Where I'm from, we're livin' off the boom, boom crack 

It's that hip hop rockers jazz when I max 

Peace be the greeting of the insect tribe 

Pestilent forces can't catch the vibe 

We live to love and we love to rock mics 

We speak in ghetto tongue 'cause ghetto's the life 

Food for thought, so get a buffet plate 

The lyrics are so fat you might gain weight 

So just watch me step alone, into the sunset 

Left foot, right foot, 1, 2 mic check 

Brewin' funk inside my soul kitchen 

So pull up a chair here's a bit have a listen 

Of hardhead intervene, damn, I know you're fluent 

Yeah, 'cause Doodle ain't havin' it and Butterfly knew it 

Where you from? 

Spaces and places we fly 

Lay it on places and spaces we fly 

Space and all the smooth places we fly 

Junk for the G rise, Mecca, yeah, you know it's like 

Venus acts a fool at the square, right? Yeah 

Doctors engineer in apparel, right? Yeah 

Hip-Hop made a point last year, right? Yeah 

But Planets is the joint this year, right? Yeah 

Planets got the dubs and live to grass-hop 

Duck out from the fuzz, that sweat the hip-hop 

Risin' like we foam, get it from the dome 

I'm from where the fat beats stretch for mad blocks 

We can get a kit, without no thread 

Feelin' funky beats go straight, to the head 

Fall into a club, dig on what we love 

It be past six, before we reach bed 

Butter freaks on relics we say, those are fat 

Doodle makin' silk, LaQuan, where it's at? 

We need to stack a sack, for rap to take us dap 

So we treat our clips, just like, bustin' caps 

Rip it 'til dawn, kick it 'til dawn 

Hip-Hop is the fix or else we be gone 

People thought they canned it, rap is not by bandits 

Digable Planets got it, goin' on 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah 

Everywhere, every, every where, yeah
