[@danielmarquezmiceli6721]

the way she sings "i think i need a cup of tea" and then proceeds to sip the tea mid song is so iconic

[@jay.m5276]

Timeless, groovy, perfect, Badu.

[@fuzzy-tb9so]

you realize it's ghost writers for her, right?

[@jay.m5276]

@@fuzzy-tb9so many artists have writers. You can still like a song without idolising the artist.

[@fuzzy-tb9so]

@@jay.m5276 true, good point lol

[@jonobikey]

Marvellous. I went and bought her album on the basis of this performance.

[@ashmitmg6045]

, my, my, my I'm feeling high My money's gone I'm all alone Too much to see The world keeps turnin' Oh, what a day What a day, what a day Peace and blessings manifest with every lesson learned If your knowledge were your wealth Then it would be well-earned If we were made in his image Then call us by our names Most intellects do not believe in God But they fear us just the same Oh, on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) Woo, on and on and on and on (All night 'til the break of dawn) I go on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) Ooh, on and on and on and on (God dammit I'mma sing my song) I was born underwater With three dollars and six dimes Yeah you might laugh 'Cause you did not do your math Like one, two, three Damn, y'all feel that? Oh Line one, two, three The world keeps turning Oh what a day, what a day, what a day The man that knows something Knows that he knows nothing at all Does it seem colder in your summertime And hotter in your fall? If we were made in his image Then call us by our names Most intellects do not believe in God But they fear us just the same Oh, on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) On and on and on and on (All night 'til the vultures swarm) I go on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) On and on and on and on (Mad props to the god JaBorn) I am feeling kinda hungry 'cause my high is coming down Don't feed me yours 'cause your food does not endure I think I need a cup of tea, the world keeps burnin' Oh, what a day, what a day, what a day You rush into destruction 'cause you don't have nothin' left The mothership can't save you so your ass is gon' get left If we were made in his image then call us by our names Most intellects do not believe in God But they fear us just the same Oh, on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) Oh, on and on and on and on (You can't fuck with me so just leave me alone) Ooh, ooh, way on and on and on and on (My cypher keeps moving like a rolling stone) Oh, on and on and on and on (And on and on) Source: LyricFind
