Cee-Lo Green: One For The Road

Yeah, mmm mmm mmm, yeah, that sho' feel good
Hello, I go by the name of simply Cee-Lo Green, how do you do?
Welcome, I thought I'd seize this opportunity
To tell you a little bit more about myself, if you don't mind
This is my vision, you know what I'm sayin'? Check me out now, uhh
I have millenniums of material an' rivers of rhythm
An entire ocean of emotion that's enlightenin' to swim in
Also a forest of feelin', beaten paths of peace
Trapped inside my silhouette, I have to speak to release
Demandin' more from the pen than I horde from the pen
The line between playin' to win an' sin is thin
But I walk it with grace an' I talk it with taste
I am that raw, simply put an' I rest my case
It's elementary
Yet far more than resources to pay the rent for me
Everythin' that I've done is divine
Ask God, He'll tell ya, yeah, He mine
So, you see, you don't need another thug out of me
That is the last thing I plan to be on this LP
But I'm a go slip into somethin' mo' comfortable an' continue the lesson
No inconvenience at all, I insist on leavin' an impression
So relax an' ride out
Relax, it's okay an' ride out
Just relax an' ride out
Players, relax, an' ride out
I also solicit visual verbalism worth a visit
Intensely exquisite artism, inquire all, "Who is it?"
It's a deliciously darin' delicacy, I eat to exist
Oh, he's wavin' those words, I want seconds an' thirds
Oh, hush, that's awful kind of you, you're makin' me blush
I could use some competition, but they not makin' me much
Man, this beat is like my master, it's makin' me bust
Hip hop is sufferin', meanin' I'm a necessity, if nothin'
But you like every other rapper, cornrows an' a bandanna
But I get a hundred an' fifty thousand dollar check
Every three months off Santana
Don't you fuck up, though, my family is the whole side of Atlanta
Now, how can I say? Okay, let me just put it this way
If anyone ever contests my conquest, my gun best
Yo, son, just takes one time to be one less
Now you run an' tell the rest that I'm the best
I sang sweet but brang heat to bang meat, we all on the same street

An' it's not that often I verbalize the essential element of surprise
I am not one of these thug rapper guys
But this one will help you realize an' use both eyes to recognize
The type of action that this amount of money buys
Now listen, son, let me drop some shit on you, man
I can just do do do an' put a hit on you, man
With hot heat that will make your heartbeat quit on you, man
An' Mr. Dawson'll find a pretty box to fit all you, man
So relax an' ride out
Just relax, young man an' ride out
Hey, you better relax an' ride out, okay?
Just relax an' ride out
I could take that shit all day but if I only had sixteen more bars to live
I'd get high an' hopefully O.D. on an alternative
I'd give a dim lit dream, a color scheme
An' I'd swim for the sun, no matter how impossible that may seem
I'd bury my feet in the foundation of a forest
Becomin' one with everything there
I would be long, I would be right an' wrong, but I'd be rare
An' then I would pretend I didn't care, lose my fear
An' pray that my forever would be fare
And I love you all, unconditional, I get misty already missin' y'all
An' then I forgive those who rhyme to kill the time
While mine cultivate the consciousness an' chill the spine
Heal the mind, yet still sublime
Ride out
Relax an' ride out
Relax an' ride out
Relax an' ride out
This is one for the road, yeah, one time for your motherfuckin' mind
I told how you motherfuckin' play, D.F.y'all, believe this, yeah
Shouts out to Outkast, Goodie Mob
Yeah, Backbone, where ya at brother?
Hey, ha ha, alright, speak easy now, ha ha, yeah
Can't nobody stop me now, no sir, yeah, I'm gone, y'all
Oh, man, it's lovely, ha ha, yeah, somebody better stop me, ha ha
'Cause I'm good, heh heh, yeah, ha ha, alright now, ha ha
Yeah, ha ha, alright, we gonna relax, 'cause it feels so good
Everybody doin' their godamn thing, yeah
