Brand Nubian

Yeah, yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah, uh-huh
[Chorus:]
U for me (U for me)
And me for you (Me for you)
One for all (One for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way we do)
U for me (U for me)
And me for you (Thats right)
One for all (One for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way we do)
[Verse One: Grand Puba]
Yeah I keep truer, sidestep MCs like manure
Play the corner like a sewer, keep it milky like Kahlua
Ya heard my shit be off the optimately optimate
Once a nigga begin to spit, get ya high like trees and shit
Thats it, then I push it uptown to the Bush
Yeah I moosh, watch me hook it off like a Nike swoosh
My conglomerates reign dominance with prominence
Son, a lot of niggas thought I was done but I only just begun
Can yall feel me because we feel yall can
Smoke the tree right off the tims, long live Brand Nubian
My rhyme flow be imported, got so many different styles my shit is assorted
Never distorted, wanna catch my flow, better camcord it
Im a take you there, believe me yo
See Im here like welfare, got so many niggas livin my nickname should be
"Air"
You for me, me for you, thats how we do, 99-to-two-thou Brand Nu
[Chorus:]
U for me (Uhuh)
Me for you (Me for you)
One for all (One for all now)
Thats the way we do (Thats just the way we do)
U for me (Thats you for me)
Me for you (Uhuh)
One for all (One for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats just the way we do)
[Verse Two: Lord Jamar]
Yeah, we engage the enemy, arrange the assembly
Flip thru the pages of time, do you remember me?
Thru the ages I existed only as a memory
Some of me exists inside your biochemistry
I be the slave that always misbehave, runnin for days
The North Star help me find my way
I aint got no time to play, Im trying to get away
Bloodhounds tryin to track me down, tryin to bring me back to town
If they catch me they just might ax me
Wont arraign me, they probably hang me
But its freedom or death, exert speed til my last breath
Cant half step, Whiteys on my trail
Im ridin on the underground rail, hidin from the face thats pale
Me and Harriet, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and take me home
They wanna break my bones and take me where they keep the tombstones
[Chorus:]
U for me (Thats you for me)
Me for you (and thats me for you)
One for all (One for all baby)
Thats the way we do (Thats just the way that we do)
U for me (Brand Nu, Brand Nu)
Me for you (Me for you, huh)
One for all (One for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way we do)
[Verse Three: Sadat X]
Let me find out, yall tryin to dine out without me there
It cant happen, why is ya still yappin?
Im known by college grads and then by anyone who all knighted
Why you so excited? You scarin chicks and grabbin em
Talkin bout cabbin off the bat
Relax nigga, you here with me, we dont get down like that
I keep 13 with one in the ass, you Catholic mass
Nobody wants to die and be a mural on the wall
Im the apostle yall, Im like Samuel L.L.
But Ill swing by you like Eve with a gun in my sleeve
Weed spots is like my need spots, let freedom ring
Sadat X Luther King
I wanna 1000 from the housing, dont know how much the club allows in
but I told the bouncer, I said "Yo thats not my fault
theres no need for assault", push and hit the asphalt
Now Im a peaceful man, would you do for me, or is it......
[Chorus:]
U for me (Is it in like that?)
Me for you (Fo sho, here we go)
One for all (I said its one for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way that we do)
U for me (U for me, u for me yall)
Me for you (Fo sho, Im for you, dogg)
One for all (One for all)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way we do)
U for me (Brand Nubian huh)
Me for you (98-99)
One for all (Touche, here we go)
Thats the way we do (And thats the way, thats the way, thats the way)
U for me (Yeah sho nuff)
Me for you (Uhuh, keep it goin)
One for all (One for all baby)
Thats the way we do (Thats the way we do, thats the way we do
