The Roots
Without a Doubt
[Intro: Black Thought & Lady B]
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Yes, yes, ah
Come on, come on, uh, uh, uh, uh, yeah
Another one of those Saturday nights, y'all
Yeah, take heed
Yeah, check it out, come on
You're now rockin' with the best, uh
Without a doubt, take heed, y'all
Come on, yeah, uh
Uh, yo, about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt

[Verse 1: Black Thought]
Check it out now, it's the type cerebral
World-renowned, illustrious, illegal
My musical infection
Bubblin' within your zone like champagne
Known as the Fifth campaign
Thought be doin' his damn thang
Bent like a boomerang, tryna maintain
I'm both yin and yang from Mi Kan Lang
With your lady hittin' me up, I'm never answering
Let her miss me, see me, then she all tryna kiss me
Talkin' 'bout, "I dig you, Tariq, the way you twist me"
Meanwhile, she comin' home tipsy, all grinnin'
And what you used to fit in before, you now swimmin'
Just take a dive, P5 deep, the team winnin'
Takin' hip-hop back to the beginnin'
'Cause emcees are pretendin'
I slap your sound out the sky like I'm goaltendin'
Bring your career to an ending
Enter the next era, transcending for real
Know what I'm sayin'? If not, then, man, listen
For you to try to fuck with the Fifth, that's ambition
I let y'all know the time indeed, y'all need to—
[Chorus: Lady B]
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt

[Verse 2: Black Thought]
Yo, I control the stadium like the law, long arm
Warn, ring the alarm, 'cause here The Roots come
The funk's all ready for whoever want some
Your album get split like a lump sum
No doubt, under this influence of the Falcon
Millennium spaceship, totally wasted
Schoolly D classic, though I vocally laced it
Taste this swerve on a regular basis
Servin' y'all wherever the place is
Blowin' connoisseur quality in my competitor's faces
This is without doubt, your lady pass out (Yo)
This Illa-Fifth Twilight Zone, you ass out
Shout to my brothers on back route
Whippin' the short that's smacked out, dig it
Strump this in your cassette deck, hip-hop has not left yet
I sent a verse in the mail like a death threat
The critically-acclaimed composer, stand over
Whichever mute minuscule mic holder
You never knew the real before, yo, I'll show you
You need to make your thoughts more sober, think it over
[Chorus: Lady B]
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt
Take heed, y'all
Get a little P5D, y'all
Straight from the town of Philly, y'all
We about to give you what you need, y'all
Without a doubt
