Word Is Bond Lyrics By Brand Nubian

    hook x
    c’mon word is bond we got it goin’ on
    c’mon throw ya hands in the air in the air
    brand nubian’ll rock to the break of dawn
    in the air in the air
    it’s like that y’all ya don’t stop
    c’mon throw ya hands in the air in the air
    brand nubian’ll rock the sure shot
    in the air in the air

    lord jamar
    well let me get a piece of the track peace to the black
    peeps on the streets with the beats in the jeeps comin’ back
    in ’94 with the raw that’s against the law
    it’s the god my delivery is cod
    word is bond and bond is life we got it goin’ on tonight
    don’t nobody wanna fight they wanna see a tight show
    where some brothers might go for broke
    utilizin’ the effects of the smoke

    sadat x
    i pull cash to smash make the blunt last
    fill it with hash too and pass don’t even ask
    in a flash put that ass in the grass
    flag is halfmast somebody must’ve passed
    we’re makin’ your ass drip into the stands
    fold my cash at last my task to teach the class
    and receive somethin’ more than brass and some glass
    make a brother work hard long and fast

    hook x

    lord jamar
    dreadlock i said i rock for my block
    clock wax like crack samplin’ from old stacks
    that’s where the soul’s at in this whole rap universe
    we kick the funky tunes with a verse
    sun moon and star some boom for jamar
    to get me in the flow now i’m read’ to go
    set to show everybody in the party that we nice
    without sippin’ on bacardi and ice

    4 sadat x
    this style flash jamar’ll be the shinin’ star
    no matter who you are no matter who you are
    i’ll rape the tape travel on the interstate
    with weight wipe the slate and mob the gate
    and by fate i’ll avoid the court date no legal aid
    everythin’ is paid why cause a tirade
    if the money ain’t made talkin’ millions
    but spendin’ pennies and gettin’ cheap shoes from kenny’s

    hook

    lord jamar
    now let’s take time out to say peace to the gods peace
    bust how i release ’cause this beat is hard
    we be the squad fard taught to rule
    take a thought to the top now i drop the jewel

    5 sadat x
    i push the cadillac deville and still be real
    i drive a garbage truck and not give a
    i need to earn a buck fo’ the year
    i’m through with buyin’ wild gear
    just somethin’ i can wear somethin’ fly when i appear

    6 lord jamar
    well now we’re here to take the gold and the cash for the bill fold
    i told their ass to chill and they still cold
    frozen ’cause they not amongst the chosen one
    sun shines like a beacon similar to how i’m speakin’

    7 sadat x
    as i receive the mic for the last time i clear up your past crime
    all felonies can go as long as you know
    brand nubian will stand without the use of a band
    we always work with a plan

    hook x
