Way back in time way back in the day Before sold-out emcee's and whack dee-jay's There was a beat created that defied men's ways And you can hear it every time a record plays The legend of the beat is spoken in whispers and fear Cause it was candy to the ear but deadly to hear It fights against slackness and is impossible to stop And once the beat stops you know it just don't stop And you can feel the beat in your bones You can feel it in the air It takes away your trouble and takes away your cares So next time you listen to a tape or CD Look for the only beat that can truly make you free It'll take your mind away and knock you back in your seat First you feel it in your head and then you're moving your feet It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat Wipes out the last shadow of a shred of a doubt It'll make you understand so well You'll wanna stand up and shout It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat There was a businessman by the age of thirty-five Working full-time just to stay alive He carried a briefcase he wore a shirt and tie The beat took him away cause he was living a lie It started when he was walking home one day The bass dropped in and everything turned gray He started shakin' and-a breakin' to that crazy beat Screaming over and over the continuous beat People stopped and stared as he crawled the asphault And no one was sure what force was at fault And now he's been in a pad and pen for close to twenty years Freakin' to the beat that no one else can hear It'll take your mind away and knock you back in your seat First you feel it in your head and then you're moving your feet It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat Wipes out the last shadow of a shred of a doubt It'll make you understand so well You'll wanna stand up and shout It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat The beat begins with bass and snare As regimented as platoons A simple mocking clock it ticks Invisible controls buffoons Pinnochio among a sea Of mimes and lies and strings and stages Tragic sleuth who found the truth He wonders why and screams and rages Why am I the one who sees the darkness And ponders the light Why are such misguided minds And pairs of eyes tricked by this sight Where is reason common sense And spirit set to break the bars Cause we create the beat That makes the black That blocks the light from stars It'll take your mind away and knock you back in your seat First you feel it in your head and then you're moving your feet It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat Wipes out the last shadow of a shred of a doubt It'll make you understand so well You'll wanna stand up and shout It's the continuous beat It's that continuous beat
