De La Soul - The Magic Number

Three, that’s the Magic Number
Yes, it is, it’s the magic number
Somewhere in this hip-hop soul community

And that’s the magic number

Difficult preaching is Posdnuos’ pleasure
Pleasure and preaching starts in the heart
Something that stimulates the music in my measure
Measure in my music, raised in three parts
