Link for link not linked to herringbone but, links between people sharing homes and food they've grown / Names well known / Ideas in their domes / All that connects and lets us know we ain't alone / Shown the way by the old and gray / Stay connected by the influence of those that passed away / Fray at the seams / Fade like dreams / Made the team, paid still stayed underground like SKEME / Making dents in a system that ain't making sense / We represent and wind up past tense / Beyond frustrated, jaded, mad and upset but it's the links that keep us in check and it goes:
Sister, brother, friend, lover, grandmother, everybody that you've ever known
I don't click the link
I link the clique
I think the trick is to see ourselves as people…
Link for link but not online / The type of bond that's strong enough to make a player pawn shine to buy food for the little one that needs him / Knowing, one day, that may be the seed that feeds him / Breathing the same air that the whole world shares / Fair better than the weather when the ozone tears / Stare at the son / Stand among your younger ones and trust the links to always keep them there.
Link for link not what you think but what you feel / Instinctive ways beyond the phrase of "keep it real" / Signed and sealed on common ground the links reveal / I think the trick is to see myself as people.
Sister, brother, friend, lover, grandmother, everybody that you've ever known
I don't click the link
I link the clique
I think the trick is to see ourselves as people…
