| [00:06.09] |
Time, time is very precious to me. |
| [00:09.84] |
I don't know how much I have left and I have some things I would like to say. |
| [00:14.47] |
Hopefully at the end I'll have something that will be important to other people too. |
| [00:20.38] |
Stand up, sit down, stand up again |
| [00:22.82] |
Morse Code sent to God, are you listening? |
| [00:25.34] |
He must have been too busy fixing other shit |
| [00:27.93] |
No call, no response shows the opposite |
| [00:30.47] |
We confess to the man who was faceless |
| [00:32.65] |
I still do the same but to thousands of strangers |
| [00:35.18] |
Went through some changes, some said I'm faithless |
| [00:37.70] |
'Cause I replaced the altar with a basement |
| [00:40.58] |
I often fought the explanation of where people go when their bodies let go of the soul |
| [00:46.15] |
Does it just turn cold? |
| [00:48.00] |
Or do we get judged and told where to go? |
| [00:50.20] |
And if so, how the **** would you know if nobody came back and said I'm telling you, bro? |
| [00:55.20] |
I could never get past the shit that was spit out the pastor's lips |
| [00:59.10] |
And the rapper's started making more sense |
| [01:01.12] |
I guess that's the reason that some people cringe when they kids get a hold of my shit |
| [01:05.25] |
If the grip of a God is insistent on not questioning if he truly exists |
| [01:09.96] |
No wonder that I got caught up in the music it filled my spirit to the brim, amen |
| [01:14.79] |
Motha ****er |
| [01:41.75] |
This is my offering card |
| [01:43.48] |
The only thing I have to offer is bars |
| [01:45.50] |
The only time I felt like I was talking to God |
| [01:48.00] |
Was in my Walkman walking with Nas |
| [01:50.30] |
Alright see I be going to Sunday school every week |
| [01:53.50] |
In the back trying to read, but see that something was off |
| [01:56.00] |
Maybe it was 'cause I was trying to huddle in the yard |
| [01:58.71] |
Preacher didn't connect when he would mumble the Psalms |
| [02:01.03] |
I was in my head and I was bustin' with Pac |
| [02:03.41] |
Takin' off my wifebeater and getting drunk in the park |
| [02:06.01] |
After that part, I found God, it wasn't Jesus |
| [02:08.88] |
Some psilocybin and the ink released him |
| [02:11.75] |
I began to hold communion every time my music came out the speakers I used it |
| [02:16.42] |
And it fuled my movement I believed in, voice of reason, just me and my Adidas |
| [02:22.52] |
And I could achieve it, I put my hand over my heart, pledge allegiance |
| [02:27.00] |
I solemnly swear by the faith that raised my since Kool Herc dropped the needle |
| [02:31.55] |
The South Bronx, that's hip-hop's Egypt |
| [02:34.22] |
The word of our God is manipulated and twisted by the same system |
| [02:38.22] |
That is infiltrated and falsely interpreted Jesus |
| [02:42.00] |
One life, one love, one God, It's us, treated your neighbor how you would want to be treated |
| [02:47.09] |
The universal laws of God, don't look too far it's right here, us human beings |
| [02:52.04] |
The spirits right here and I don't have to see it |
| [02:55.00] |
Now every time I want to connect with God I put my headphones on |
| [02:58.57] |
Then I nod, grab my pen, my pad, let it seep in, in |
| [03:02.82] |
And that's my process |
| [03:05.65] |
And God's always watching |
| [03:07.53] |
Got God in my Walkman |
| [03:10.52] |
Go ahead and top that |
