Take You There

Check it out, ahh yeah
Back again with anotha hit and smash
Pete Rock, C.L Smooth, we got the groove for you
So, go call your crew and let 'em know we in the house
C.L, hit 'em off with the verses

Never judge a book by the cover; discover the Soul Brother
With the Mecca Don workin' brunette to blonde
How many innocent conned
when I respond in full black
With us havin' the Vernon villains back to back

Amazing grace when I face the great paper chase
For real, it's long overdue, so I don't wanna talk to you
I stroke the hell out of Mademoiselle who insisted
Every night she get her back twisted in the unlisted

I'm livin' through my son, so daddy, see it this way
I want him in the NFL, his brother in the NBA
No doubt, I'm with a 'piece down in Mecca, all crazy
to the late eve, none of this is make believe

I breathe some of the most powerful lyrics of our century
Battle physically, conquer mentally
Essentially, you're dealin' with a Mecca affair
So anywhere you wanna go, y'know, I'll take you there

C.L, whatcha gonna do
You know, you can make me, boo
Over, over again
Come on and take me there

Control now so in the future see me callin' the shots
From larger plots to cash to mini-bikes and open mics
I'm blowin' up spots for knots in the millennium years
And how I drop it on my peers brings tears and fears

And now the question manifests in mind only
My soldiers wear Versace or the Army fatigue
That brings a world the intrigue and glamor to my arsenal
Of gods, pimps to players and layers of deceptions

My whole mind state gravitate to weapon
Makin' people in the business get a misconception
It ain't hard to the core, it ain't Sex on the Beach
It's just another plateau the brothers have to reach

Emphatically non-psyched, but then we were broke and misguided
Try to gas me like Hitler, once we get divided
No question, you're dealin' with a Mecca affair
So anywhere you wanna go, I'll take you there

C.L, whatcha gonna do
You know, you can make me move
Over, over again
Come on and take me there

Set it so I can make 'em all respect my fame
When brothers try to count all my chips in the game
Now let me civilize your foolish acts of gunplay
The plan of a stick man, the price in how to get away

Chose for negroes, the most hypnotical flows
On the planet, another East Coast track rose, Goddamnit
My theme to mainstream's the knock
The only time I get writer's block is when my lucci's on lock

Pretty much I'm comin' through in the clutch, see
My thought is a bombshell, built to only propel
Or is it just my style of hustle makin' a mark
To rumble the playgrounds with more danger than Jurassic Park

It was dark when I brought it to the light, for spite
My staff's got me takin' nothin' but champagne baths
Now the aftermath's dealin' with a Mecca affair
So anywhere you wanna go, I'll take you there

C.L, whatcha gonna do
You know, you can make me move
Over, over again
Come on and take me there

Just come on
Take me right where I wanna be
Come on
Come on to you and me
Come on, oh yeah

What I've got to run

C.L, whatcha gonna do
You know, you can make me move
Over, over again
Come on and take me there

C.L, whatcha gonna do
You know, you can make me move
Over, over again
Come on and take me there
