YOU SHOULD BECOME A

Would you like to live in a cage where you
couldnt fully extend your arms or legs?

Be Healthy- Dead Prez

It's all love

I don't eat no meat, no dairy, no sweets
only ripe vegetables, fresh fruit and whole wheat
I'm from the old school, my household smell like soul
food, bro
curried falafel, barbecued tofu
no sh though, no candy bars, no cigaremes
only ganja and fresh-squeezed juice from oranges
exercising daily to stay healthy
and I rarely drink water out the tap, cause it's lthy

Len^l soup is mental fruit
and ginger root is good for the yout'
Fresh veg-e-table with the mayatl stew
sweet yam fries with the green calalloo
careful how you season and prepare your foods
cause you don't want to lose vitamins and miner-ules
and that's the jewel

life brings life, it's valuable, so I eat what comes

from the ground, it's natural
let your food be your medicine (uh huh)
no Excederin (uh uh)
strictly herb, generate in the sun, cause I got melanin
and drink water, eight glasses a day
cause that's what they say

They say you are what you eat, so I strive to be
healthy
my goal in life is not to be rich or wealthy
cause true wealth comes from good health, and wise
ways
we got to start taking bemer care of ourselves

They say you are what you eat, so I strive to be
healthy
my goal in life is not to be rich or wealthy
cause true wealth comes from good health, and wise
ways
we got to start taking bemer care of ourselves, be
healthy y'all
