    Couldn't find a decent version of this song on CZcams, so this one should be slightly better (although not great due to the methods used to obtain it, but it's certainly clearer than the others).
    A different version of the song is used as the opening for The Boondocks, but this is the full version, entitled 'Judo Flip'. If anyone wants a download link to the song, the MP3 version is here:
    www.mediafire.com/?3arwzk22c4z...
    Although I used a WAV in the video, the sound quality is virtually identical and it would have added 58mb more to the file. I'm going to add this link to the description as well.
    If people want the WAV then I'll deliver, but it's really not any different from this MP3.
    Lyrics (some may be slightly wrong, credit for most goes to youtuber bz6262):
    I am the stone that builder refused
    I am the visual
    The inspiration
    That made lady sing the blues
    I'm the spark that makes your idea bright
    The same spark that lights the dark
    So that you can know your left from your right
    I am the ballot in ya box
    The bullet in ya gun
    The inner glow that lets you know
    To call your brother son
    The story that just begun
    The promise of what's to come
    And I'mma remain a soldier till the war is won
    The street, to see ya drawls
    Sing of the hunger, pain
    Want to call out 'cha flaws
    The thing you don't wanna claim
    Pride and joy, ya baby boy
    Your inner child's toy
    Your saving grace, the winner of the race, the b-boy
    A new age scholar, with millennium mindstate
    Master of education, doctor or candidate
    No, that aint analogy of me through rap
    That's a true that, and for real a brother really
    Judo flip, chop chop chop
    A judo flip, they say chop chop chop
    A judo flip
    But once you hear the capital A, rap it or stay
    With you for a while, and it won't go away
    Judo flip, chop chop chop
    A judo flip, they say chop chop chop
    A judo flip
    But once you hear the capital A, rap it or stay
    With you for a while

    This is the tale of two cities:
    From to the hood to the woods
    Away from the nitty-gritty
    To the now we all good
    No more, corner to corner liquor store with check, cash
    And now it's, wall to wall shoppin' mall to spend cash, in
    Lush greenery, beautiful scenery
    Acquired environment, no sirens or machinery
    And seems to be, so peaceful and unthreatenin'
    But there goes the neighborhood, as soon as we get get settled in
    I guess it's true, the way the sayin' goes:
    You can change a wardrobe, but not the man under the clothes
    And you can, walk a mile in these inner-city shoes
    But you still won't understand my inner-city blues
    Give thanks, for the things that mean the most to me
    My family, and all my other people that are close to me
    From the curb to the burbs, the gutter to the butter
    Imma tell you how it is, and tell you how we Judo Flip
    Judo flip, chop chop chop
    A judo flip, they say chop chop chop
    A judo flip
    But once you hear the capital A, rap it or stay
    With you for a while, and it won't go away
    Judo flip, chop chop chop
    A judo flip, they say chop chop chop
    A judo flip
    But once you hear the capital A, rap it or stay
    With you for a while, and it won't go away

    So that you can know your left from your right
    I am the ballot in ya box, The bullet in the gun
    The inner glow that lets you know to call your brother son
    The story that just begun, the promise of what's to come
    And I'mma remain a soldier till the war is won
    The streak that's in your drawers
    The sting of a hunger pain
    The one to call out your flaws
    The thing you don't wanna claim
    Pride and joy, ya baby boy
    Your inner child's toy
    Your saving grace, the winner of the race, the b-boy

    Heh, amazing how a change in beat can change the entire atmosphere of the song, the origanal has a deepness to it though thats really, hard to hate or argue with.
    It shows a kind of pain behind his story, a since of a kind of longing for lost, a pain of a hard past, and unfair treatment. He has no need to resort to harsh language or trashing others to make his point.
    It's works like this that have a deeper depth than surface that are so rare these days, It's truly a masterpiece.

    I don't know you or what you've been through, but you matter. I grew up in church always hearing about God but I decided to do my own thing. Smoking weed and chasing girls, among other things. I did it for years and I was depressed but one day a little while after being arrested and not even touching weed for quite a while, I lost control of my body. While still being conscious, God started speaking to me and He said "follow me or die." He scared me straight, for years I had the opportunity to accept Jesus as Lord but I never did, so God had to wake me up. After all these years I'm still glad God said what He said. It was like someone pushing another person out of the way of a speeding car, to the person that was pushed it might seem mean but after that person gets a hold of themselves and looks back, they will realize that they needed to be pushed. Jesus Christ loves you and so do I.
    God bless you
