[ VERSE 1 ]
|
Look, look, look, look...
|
Look at me, cool as I wanna be
|
Fly as they come beside of some wanna-be
|
One of the chosen, if you're chosen, then go into
|
Rhymes that change the time, as it grows into
|
Riches, itches, switches your whole lifestyle
|
You're in the spotlight, over night flyin miles
|
Away, today I'm flyin high
|
So I give thanks to the Man in the sky
|
I remember a time whenever a rhyme
|
Left your lips, it only could get nickels and dimes
|
But nickels and dimes wasn't enough to eat
|
So I guess you could say I was saved by the beat
|
On the street, surrounded by sin
|
I never sell out, and I wouldn't give in
|
God said: you can win, look within
|
See your skin, you're my kin
|
And I made you funke
|
|
God made me funke

[ VERSE 2 ]
|
Esoteric, non-generic, potent lyrics
|
Only those with ears will hear it
|
As above so below
|
Lucky 7-7, heaven, have been blown
|
Back and forth
|
South to north
|
Right to left
|
Life to death
|
East to west
|
Knowledge step, 33 degrees
|
327 left to see
|
So God created a light in which I shine
|
With sublime rhymes that inclines the mind
|
Define ancient segments, seek it, speak it, teach it
|
Keep it, peep it, we get stronger and reap its
|
Benefits, but then it gets more intricate
|
As you get deeper into it
|
To open the door, the power of God's the one key
|
And I opened it, and God made me funke
|
|
(Is it funky enough?)
|
(Funky enough)
|
God made me funke
|
(Is it funky enough?)
|
F-u-n-k-e
|
|
(Funky) is the way God made me
|
(Funky) is the power He gave me
|
(Funky) like the fans that pay me
|
(Funky) like the stations that play me
|
(Funky) is how I made it through the '80s
|
(Funky) connected to the ladies
|
(Funky) you know a devil can't faze me
|
(Funky) I ain't afraid, bee
|
(Funky) cause God made me
|
Funke
|
|
[ VERSE 3 ]
|
I'm over, over like a fat rat
|
The blind see what I got, and others see how I got that
|
Position with vision
|
Precision, decision
|
's like a livin prism
|
I'm shinin light on the money I made
|
And the rhymes parlayed
|
And you can see I'm paid
|
I condemn them that focus on the ends
|
As opposed to the means, killin machines men
|
I'm the real 'high roller', cause I'm rollin with God
|
Save the children - that's my job
|
Workin overtime, goin over-rhyme
|
Mind over matter, spirit over mind
|
I sympathize with the brothers on the street
|
Cause it's genocide, and we all gotta eat
|
But do the right thing, and you'll never be hungry
|
I kept the faith and God made me funke
|
|
God made me funke
|
|
