Chorus:



you for me (U for me)

And me for you (Me for you)

One for all (One for all)

That's the way we do (That's the way we do)



you for me (U for me)

And me for you (That's right)

One for all (One for all)

That's the way we do (That's the way we do)



Verse One: Grand Puba



Yeah I keep truer, sidestep MC's like manure

Play the corner like a sewer, keep it milky like Kahlua

Ya heard my shit be off the optimately optimate

Once a nigga begin to spit, get ya high like trees and shit

That's it, then I push it uptown to the Bush

Yeah I moosh, watch me hook it off like a Nike swoosh

My conglomerates reign dominance with prominence

Son, a lot of niggas thought I was done but I only just begun

Can y'all feel me because we feel y'all can

Smoke the tree right off the tims, long live Brand Nubian

My rhyme flow be imported,
got so many different styles my shit is assorted

Never distorted, want to catch my flow, better camcord it

I'm a take you there, believe me yo

See I'm here like welfare, got so many niggas livin my nickname should be

"Air"

You for me, me for you, that's how we do, 99-to-two-thou Brand Nu



Chorus:



you for me (Uhuh)

Me for you (Me for you)

One for all (One for all now)

That's the way we do (That's just the way we do)



you for me (That's you for me)

Me for you (Uhuh)

One for all (One for all)

That's the way we do (That's just the way we do)



Verse Two: Lord Jamar



Yeah, we engage the enemy, arrange the assembly

Flip through the pages of time, do you remember me?

through the ages I existed only as a memory

Some of me exists inside your biochemistry

I be the slave that always misbehave, runnin for days

The North Star help me find my way

I ain't got no time to play, I'm trying to get away

Bloodhounds tryin to track me down, tryin to bring me back to town

If they catch me they just might ax me

Won't arraign me, they probably hang me

But it's freedom or death, exert speed til my last breath

Can't half step, Whitey's on my trail

I'm ridin on the underground rail, hidin from the face that's pale

Me and Harriet, Swing Low Sweet Chariot and take me home

They want to break my bones and take me where they keep the tombstones



Chorus:



you for me (That's you for me)

Me for you (and that's me for you)

One for all (One for all baby)

That's the way we do (That's just the way that we do)



you for me (Brand Nu, Brand Nu)

Me for you (Me for you, huh)

One for all (One for all)

That's the way we do (That's the way we do)



Verse Three: Sadat X



Let me find out, y'all tryin to dine out without me there

It can't happen, why is ya still yappin?

I'm known by college grads and then by anyone who all knighted

Why you so excited? You scarin chicks and grabbin em

Talkin bout cabbin off the bat

Relax nigga, you here with me, we don't get down like that

I keep 13 with one in the ass, you Catholic mass

Nobody wants to die and be a mural on the wall

I'm the apostle y'all, I'm like Samuel L.L.

But I'll swing by you like Eve with a gun in my sleeve

Weed spots is like my need spots, let freedom ring

Sadat X Luther King

I want to 1000 from the housing, don't know how much the club allows in

but I told the bouncer, I said "Yo that's not my fault

there's no need for assault", push and hit the asphalt

Now I'm a peaceful man, would you do for me, or is it......



Chorus:



you for me (Is it in like that?)

Me for you (Fo' sho', here we go)

One for all (I said it's one for all)

That's the way we do (That's the way that we do)



you for me (U for me, you for me y'all)

Me for you (Fo' sho', I'm for you, dogg)

One for all (One for all)

That's the way we do (That's the way we do)



you for me (Brand Nubian huh)

Me for you ('98-'99)

One for all (Touche, here we go)

That's the way we do (And that's the way, that's the way, that's the way)



you for me (Yeah sho' nuff)

Me for you (Uhuh, keep it goin)

One for all (One for all baby)

That's the way we do (That's the way we do, that's the way we do)
