Intro: Mos Def - Pure heart/ I love you
Chorus: Mos Def - Pure heart/ Youre super cool/ Youre live and elemental/ Youre sweet and youre true/ Youre sooo true/ Oo-ooo-oo-ooo/ Youre plain and yet so special/ Its nuttin like you/ Youre so cool/ Youre sweet and rude/ Youre so plain that its special/ Its nuttin like you/ Well aww hoo/ oo-oooo-oo-ooo/ You make me stand up, and holla do the hoochie coo/ Youre so cool
Verse 1: Jim Jones - They told me pain only shows you where you goin/ You get to laugh then that shows you where you been/ And when you get the cash that only shows you how to sin like when you gettin fast money and you blow it in the wind/ Where we from success one in a million/ We thought success was getting money in front the buildin/ End of the summer we was countin up the killins, like they killed baby boy trynna run up in the buildin now/ Love/ I bouged one of her rose petals/ She was from the concrete and came up out the cold ghetto/ But so gentle/ But it appears like, on a clear light it could thunderstorm/ Want some more
Refrain: Mos Def - Oo-ooo-oo-ooo/ Pure heart/ I love ya, pure heart/ Pure heart/ Uh-ooo-oo-ooo/ Ha, its nuttin like you/ Youre soo/ Do-doo-do-doo/ Youre live and elemental/ Youre sweet and youre rude, so cool/ And fiery too/ Youre plain and elemental/ Youre sweet and youre rude/ Youre soo true
Verse 2: Jim Jones - Most say Im politically incorrect/ But most people scared they spit it so indirect/ I been accused of, same thing as you but, I refused ta, follow rules of who/ The complexion of politics done changed and the computer glitch put so many problems up in the game that uh/ I prolly still be selllin caine if I, didnt get a chance at the stardom or the fame/ Bein humbles a hard quality to achieve when your ego is crazy with no modesty/ We make good music just usin the black keys, and Im flyin through the hood in my newest of black Vs/ Peace
Outro: Mos Def - Wahoo-oo-ooo/ Youre plain and elemental/ Aint nuttin like you/ Youre pure heart
