All Over Me - Do Not
by John Reuben, The Benjamin Gate

Album: Smash-Ups


Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock.

To each his own, correct?
Then don't select my flavour, while see them in the back critiquing my behaviour now,
Trying to take create, shape me to fit his mould,
He yelled out, "Sell-out," but maybe he wasn't told,
So let me tell the shallow mind why we do what we do,
I create for the creator, but not to impress you,
Ok, challenge your thinking, but not to test you,
You might not like me; I'll still say, "God bless you" and address the issue,
It's all love and respect - and honestly, bro, I don't think that's too much to expect,
But too many times your shallow mind will keep you caught,
You can't escape your thinking,
All you've ever been taught is that you walk this way,
You talk this way, you front this way,
You pose this way, you act this way,
Na, na that ain't me - I got to be who God created me to be.

Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock.

Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt.

Why is it, as humans, we cling on to only what we know, never expanding, stepping out that comfort zone?
We walk alone and then roam in ignorance, then turn back around and use it as a defence for shallowness,
This seems to be a concern, 'cause not knowing is an excuse for those unwilling to learn.

Alright I need all people to the front, to the back, to the back to front,
Let's get down, we gonnna do it like this...

Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt.

Do not stereotype the individual, 'cause what you hear in your stereo is not the typical,
Stereotypes get broken now, when I'm provoking new levels of thought; so leave your shallow mind open,
Cats approaching me; the had no lack or no clue,
I understand though, bro, see someone's been training you to think like you think and act like you do,
It's getting old; not like it should have ever been new,
But as long as shallowness exists I shall persist to rip apart the whole structure and expose the nucleus,
Shallowness exists, I shall persist to rip apart the whole structure and expose it for what it is.

Lack of understanding, lack of communication,
Lack of a desire for expanding education,
Lack of inspiration, lack of innovation,
The fact you can't respect another man's creation,
Lack of motivation, lack of restoration,
The fact we lack unity, and enjoy separation,
Lack of destination, because you know what I feel?
I feel that humans lack the ability to be real.

Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
(Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I...)
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
(You know what?)

Do, do, do, do, do, do, do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do not tell me what I can and cannot do when I rock,
Original material, my crew non-stop,
We're keeping it fly, we'll turn it out, ya'll,
Feeling some of that? - no doubt,
Do, do, do, do, do not.
