[Intro: Digable Planets, Butterfly]

Spaces and places we fly

Kicks are for places and spaces we fly

Space and all the fat places we fly

Butter, baby to the jazz

In the cut, dig it

[Verse 1: Butterfly]

Boogie jive and rap is life where I'm from

Where I'm from, Ahmad play with Izzy where I'm from

Where I'm from, it be like, "Run your coat, black"

Jupiter keeps her fat beats by the pack

Where I'm from, nappy hair is life

We be reading Marx where I'm from

The kids be rocking Clarks where I'm from

You turn around your cap, you talk over a beat

And dig some sounds booming out a jeep

Where I'm from, cocoons hide the youth

Swoon units hundred proof

You want some beef, they will cut you some

Where I'm from

The beats is infinite where I'm from

Voodoo, ashubani, gangsta lean where I'm from

I'm interplanetary, my insect movements vary

It's kinky if it's hair, G, where I'm from

The fire hoses blow, it's purple when it snow

I do a hit and go, split

It's hip, what's hip?

When hip is just the norm

'Cause Planets pledge allegiance to the funk in all its forms

The kinks, the dance, the prints on all the shirts

My grandmother told my mother it's Africa at work

On vibes, we freak, them universal beats

You find it at the spot you hit at ends of every week

We twist, exist to spin the maddest hits

Up here, funk is our neighbor so we paid her a visit

The lip we sip, can't house the nine zips

For rock we can't do nothing, for this we come equipped

Off disc, off tape, rap blasting 'til from 8

The really truly fat the fly on the flip

Cocoa gotta know how Planets gotta roll

Speak the mega cool, get funky as a goal

It's calm, relax, we're only some new jacks

That acts from the funk but don't play the role

Where you from?

[Chorus: Digable Planets, Doodlebug]

Spaces and places we fly

Pop it to places and spaces we fly

Space and all the hip places we fly, yeah

Money, what's the haps?

Underneath my naps, come

[Verse 2: Doodlebug, Ladybug Mecca, Butterfly]

Weekend Dig Plans got team where I'm from

Where I'm from, it's Clarence 13 where I'm from

Where I'm from, brothers took the beats and got fly (Why?)

That's most asked by 85, where I'm from

Faking the funk you get did

Projects, tenements, pyramids where I'm from, w

We're living off that boom boom crack

It's that hip-hop rockers, jazz when I max

Peace be the greeting of the insect tribe

Pestilent forces can't catch the vibe

We live to love and we love to rock mics

We speak in ghetto tongue 'cause ghetto's the life

Food for thought so get a buffet plate

The lyrics are so fat you might gain weight

So just watch me step alone, into the sunset

Left foot, right foot, one, two, mic check

Brewing funk inside my soul kitchen

So pull up a chair, here's a bib, have a listen

A hardhead intervene (Damn, I know you're fluent)

Yeah, 'cause Doodle ain't having it and Butterfly knew it

Where you from?

[Chorus: Digable Planets, Ladybug Mecca]

Spaces and places we fly

Lay it on places and spaces we fly

Space and all the smooth places we fly

Junk for the G rides, Mecca

Yeah, you know it's like

[Verse 3: Ladybug Mecca, Digable Planets]

Venus acts a fool at the square, right? (Yeah)

Doctors engineer in a pair, right? (Yeah)

Hip-hop made a point last year, right? (Yeah)

But Planets is the joint this year, right? (Yeah)

Planets cop the duds and live to grass-hop

Duck out from the fuzz that sweat the hip-hop

Rising like we foam, get it from the dome

I'm from where the fat beats stretch for mad blocks

We can get a kick without no bread

Feeling funky beats go straight to the head

Fall into a club, dig on what we love

It be past six before we reach bed

Butter freaks on relics, we say those are fat

Doodle, Mecc' and Silk, the quad where it's at?

We knew this deck was set for rap to take a step

So we treat our clips, just like, busting caps

Rip it 'til dawn, kick it 'til dawn

Hip-hop is the fix or else we be gone

People thought they canned it, rap is not by bandits

Digable Planets got it, going on (Uh)

[Outro: Digable Planets, Ladybug Mecca]

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Yeah, everywhere)

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Yeah)

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Yeah)

Everywhere, every, everywhere, yeah

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Yeah)

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Everywhere)

Everywhere, every, everywhere (Everywhere)

Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, yeah

Everywhere, everywhere, everywhere, yeah

Everywhere, every, every

Everywhere, yeah, everywhere, yeah

Yeah, everywhere, yeah

Everywhere
