Chords for A Tribe Called Quest - The Space Program (Official Audio)

I wanna deal with a bigger [Cm] insult, man.
_ [Ab]
The heat, the heat, the heat, the heat, the heat.
[Gm] It's coming down hard, we got to get our shit [B] together.
It's time to go [N] left and not right.
Gotta get it together forever.
Gotta get it together for brothers.
Gotta get it together for sisters.
For mothers and fathers and dead [Ab] niggas.
For non [Ebm]-conformists, one-hit acquittas.
For tights and tights and shade [Ab] figures.
Let's get it together, [Ebm] come on, let's make it.
Gotta make it, to make it, to make it, [Ab] to make it, to make something happen.
To [Ebm] make something happen, to [Ab] make something happen, let's [Ebm] make something happen.
Word to [Abm] Fifer, gonna bring it to the [Ebm] Overlord.
Drinking Cisco, [Abm] chilling with the gold [Ebm] microphone cords.
And we grip our balls every time we stuntin' on tour.
Cause we never bored, [Abm] responding to the [Ebm] ready crowds roar.
And [Ab] promoters try to hit us with the [Ebm] art of war.
We about our [Abm] business, we not quitters, not [Ebm] bullshitters.
We deliver, we go [Abm] getters, don't be bitter, cause we [Ebm] not just niggas.
You should roll with my firewall for two different claws.
[Ab] Ain't nothing for me than the segregated is [Ebm] written off.
Hard to spit in the city, y'all niggas spittin', getting self [Ab]-confused.
In the maze, you can keep your brain [Ebm] missing.
Lust to plan it for our future, keep the run of our people involved.
[Ab] Orinani is smearing off [E] the gate and [Ebm] cracking off.
Cracking off and smearing off, quickly turn the molotov.
Molotov the [Abm] spaceship door before that bitch is [Ebm] taken off.
It always seems the poorest persons are people from Staken Dog, New [Ab] Washington, Jefferson.
Jackson's on the [Ebm] cap and slog, they'd rather leave us to the greatest.
What a poison deli smog.
[Ab] Masked unblackening, it's [Ebm] happening.
You feel it, y'all, I'd rather see.
We need three-by-three structure with many bars.
[Ab] Leave us where we are so they can [Abm] play among the [Ebm] stars.
We're taking off to Mars, got these naysayers overflowing.
What you think, they want us there?
All the niggas not going.
Our reputation ain't glowing, our reparations ain't flowing.
If [Ab] you find yourself stuck in the creek, you better [Ebm] start rowing.
You should see the TV screen as a place I land my dream.
Me in the car, stereo, and it would promote the show.
[Bm] Optimistic little brother with [F] a little hope.

I raise [Ab] these notions and ideas of [Ebm] citizens living in space.
I chuckle just like all of y'all.
Absurdity, after [Ab] all.
Takes money [Abm] to get it running and money [Ebm] from trees don't fall.
Imagine for a second all my people of color, [Abm] please.
Imagine for a second all the people [Ebm] in poverty.
No matter the skin tone, culture, or time zone.
Think the ones who got it would even think to throw you a bone?
Move you out your neighborhood, did they find you a [Ab] home?
Not safe, probably [Ebm] no place to.
Imagine if the streets was [D] really talking about space.
Imagine if the streets was really talking about space.
Imagine if the streets was really talking about space. _ _ _
