BEP Empire Songtext
von Black Eyed Peas

Three, four

I′m the W I, double L I M
Linkin' up with the Primo, do it, do it
He′s the T to the A to the B, oh oh
Linkin' up with the Primo, do it, do it
He's the A P L to the D E A
Linkin′ up with the Primo, do it
And we the B to the E to the P
Hookin′ up with Primo don't do it, do it

We comin′ through to take control of each zip code
Bridgin' the gap from rap to calypso
We gonna strike each city from ′Frisco
Tokyo to back to San Louis Obispo

As you get data, descendants of Amadeus
Transmitted through your C.D's, tapes and record players
We the crusaders, attack like alligators
Yo, we′re known to elevate like escalators


Yo, we comin' through to control your area
Black Eyed Peas control your area
Bringin' the vibe that create hysteria
Wack MC′s vacate your area

We three deep, comin′ out of your speaker
I'm bustin′ your woofer and tearin' through your tweeter
Every rapper′s talkin' ′bout killin' somebody
But they ain't hip hop to me, check it out

This is the hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black eyed peas, yo, we keep it movin′
Yo, we keep it movin'
The hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Yo, we keep it movin'
We got to keep it movin′

It's the Black Eyed Peas sure climbin′ up the empire
State tower livin' is the mission desired
I see a lot of liars so to them I might cause some fire
And they lyrics soundin' tired, repetitious and expired


Cool them down troop before they time get picked
I can′t take dem serious talkin′ about bullshit
Got money and cars but can't bullshit
And your lyrics are soundin′ like some doo doo shit

While I'm holdin′ the mic tight, recite livin' insight
So we can all benefit from the art form
The men it took, you to make dough
But forgot the main goal, almost lost the soul and got norm

′Cause everybody's talkin' ′bout, high profilin′
But it ain't hip hop to me, wah, wah, wah
′Cause everybody's talkin′ 'bout, high profilin′
But it ain't hip hop to me, so check it out y'all

This is the hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black eyed peas, we keep it movin′
Yo, we keep it movin'
The hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black eyed peas, yo, we keep it movin'
We got to keep it movin′

I like the way the rhythm makes me jump
Got black to Asian and Caucasian sayin'
That′s the joint, that's the jam
Let your body collide to the rhythm provided by the Black Eyed Peas
Through a nation we build off the musical field
Or a visual thrill, we do what we feel

Yeah, your style's dated and you ain′t came out yet
Don′t think you're fresh ′cause you're rockin′ them outfits
I think you're lost ′cause you don't know where your route is
Pick up the mic, put your money where your mouth is

I pick up the mic and put my lyrics where my mouth is
Hit your spirit, make you jump out them couches
Quick agility to slow like slouches
With more bounce to the freak of deaf ounces

And we announce this, follow us to show you what the sound is
Primo and the Peas collaboratin' like great
Yo, let′s do this, let′s do this, we show you who the crew is
Black Eyed Peas is like the rulers leavin' all you brothers clueless

Haters, hate us if you wanna, we gon′ speak on it
We gon' tell the world why hip hop is haunted
Funny is a drug and MC′s is on it
We gon' take it back to the days of soul sonic

This is the hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black Eyed Peas, yo, we keep it movin'
We got to keep it movin'
The hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black Eyed Peas, yo, we keep it movin′
We got to keep it movin'

The hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin′, non non stop
Black eyed peas, yo, we keep it movin'
We got to keep it movin′
The hip, hip, hip, the hop, hop, hop
We keep it, keep it movin', non non stop
Black Eyed Peas, yo, we keep it movin′
We got to keep it movin'
Movin', movin′, movin′, movin', movin′, movin'
Keep, keep it movin′, movin'
Keep, keep it movin′
We got to keep it movin'
