    Lyrics
    Uncontainable
    (Transcription attempt by Ethan)

    put me in a container
    drain the feelin to make my brain numb
    i'm not the one, from that
    hey yo, i must refrain son
    suckas wanna categorize me,
    hypnotize me, then downsize me
    outsiders like me just gotta rise see
    i'm tryin ta fly g, when i get highly
    enlightened with the herbal
    inside a tight an'
    it's frightenin, the rules that be be tigher
    restrictions on my writin'
    plus my lifestyle and my actions
    police be askin me questions
    they don't be knowin that i be droppin lessons
    like smith and wesson
    when i be messin
    around the funky rounds
    i break out and get down
    they can't lock me down
    motherfuckers can't stop me now
    because i be myself forever
    even in bad weather
    they can't sever my pleasure endeavor
    to smoke a swisha
    the mind lifta
    causing blistas on their fingers
    and cause the brain to drift ta
    people's existence come
    through they instigate the drum
    in the distance, hey yo we feel the rythm
    hey yo we treble, we stickum
    and ripple and hit em
    uncontainable styles
    there's no bull-shittin.

    uncontainable, we can't be held back
    no walls are strong enough to hold the buddha and we like that

    on the streets
    kids are faceless, remain un-named
    and untamed, bassheads and beatfreaks with no fame
    yo i got to maintain, it's simple and it's plain
    i be up and down the mix yo,
    but i must make my name...heard
    word to mother yo we're keeping it real
    and when i walk through the streets
    yo i have no fear
    cause it's the mind-killa,
    so many guns the brain filla
    suckas pull mil
    and think they real but no chilla
    possibilities are dyin
    got the city mad tense
    everybody seem to got a mad flava defense
    if i lose i my life tonight
    i don't want to repent
    can't think about the future
    cause it's all about the present time
    my state of mind stays grounded by mad tracks
    cities for the suckers that all wanna be baddest
    but the baddest man needs no one
    you need to grow some
    yo, and stop actin like a ho-hum
    conformist, get your own flavor or get this
    cause hip-hop's some real shit
    and must get real
    everybody wanna be
    what they see on tv
    very ordinary, but on the contrary
    my vision prepares me to envision the long range
    still many pursue my character,
    and call me strange
    it's still the same,
    the game, i feel no shame
    cause i kick up like a rocket when my soul's unchained.

    uncontainable, we can't be held back
    no walls are strong enough to hold the buddha and we like that

    we cannot be seen,
    we cannot be controlled,
    it cannot be heard
    it is beyond sound
    it cannot be held
    it is intangible
    uncontainable
    the open mind

    uncontainable, we can't be held back
    no walls are strong enough to hold the buddha and we like that

    don't attempt to define me
    my rhymes be changin like the times
    rearrangin in my mind
    when i come, press rewind
    refined a blow a thunder
    find out just like the flow of life
    gets mad tight and mad deep
    suckas wanna sleep
    but they never peep
    the fact that they cannot pick their mind deep before the beat
    it's all about knowledge from the streets
    yo, the beat feel the beat that's got a soul to be free
    cause it's all about bringin your mentality
    bein a real ? the status see
    women, they got me feelin
    and they head hidden and concealin
    tryin to tear off the peelings
    of all their dealins
    with this very very very very very bony motherfuckers.
    keep it real kid and take pride in bein the other
    cause once you start up actin like you better than some
    get deader than some
    that's just how the priest said it son
    the meditation, plus the mad ism that ? like
    the mind right, word to life
    this game's strife
    cause nothing remains when you try to chain it down
    it's breaks down kid,
    word up, that's the tao
    mad philosophy unlocking me
    with knowledge there's no stoppin me
    cock back my flow and just let my flow go
    it's so, stimulating
    creating mad funk
    never hesitating
    cause it's fun to keep to people waiting
    i do my thing and then get out
    take the less traveled route
    yo, and try to never doubt.
    my creativity, yo cause it's live
    i give the whole world a shout for '95
