Ahhhhhh! | |
Check the crippled man, sittin in the church | |
My conscience hurts, flesh like me hits the dirt | |
She's paralyzed from her feet to her thighs | |
And the man who pulled the trigger didn't even lose his necktie | |
Hi/i check jimmy cuttin hair at the barbershop | |
He plays the bass guitar, like david plays the harp | |
His knowledge name is greek, cause whenever he speaks | |
He's got the wisdom of king solomon bags in his eyes from no sleep | |
Sometimes he thought of the fame in madison square garden | |
So some seek stardom, but they forget harlem | |
But seeking first of all the kingdom of god is what my pops told me | |
So if i fall, could the choir catch me | |
I flew away, on a mountain, got tempted by satan | |
Got bitten by a cobra, but the lord took my venom | |
So who's side am i on? i'm on the righteous | |
Always check the lyrics, no time to contradict | |
Chorus: | |
Some seek stardom, then they forget harlem (3x) | |
They/brothers/sisters/families/people/we/brothers | |
Keep their pockets full, but their souls run empty | |
Well aiyyo family i beseech you, in the hopes that i may reach you | |
My mother taught me one day that this mid-day would come someday | |
Born to talk that jive, with peaky hair grown wild | |
And teachers disliked me, cause i knew where my culture be | |
So now yeah mom i read history, i can't neglect my passion see | |
Rock it's kind of new to me, cause my true love was poetry | |
White was good and bad was black but black was just a massa lackey | |
Built for that b. nimble jack and i'd like to save you from the wicked | |
D-dog clear i wouldn't be wet | |
The black to mourn, tomorrow's death | |
The evil things, glad that i, while angels wrote this violence why? | |
Help me make me comprehend my black bezerk and why cast it | |
Time to blaze the angels nappy heads are braided that you make me | |
See what's hard for me that don't make you flee | |
When i enter your vicinity, you see my god ain't never after me | |
So yo i be wised up with greek | |
To go and be, the last and good and see what's wrong with me | |
And through your insecurity of me and my ability | |
So bredren won't you let me be or has thou asked to much from thy | |
To tell the truth and not to lie? oh my... | |
Chorus 2x | |
But as i grew, i knew cause the master told me | |
From a baby to a woman from a woman to a baby | |
Life is so short, hardcore becomes hard-corpse | |
Step in a coffin where the money's no longer the source | |
*singing* | |
There we go, there we go, there we go | |
I got mine now won't you get yours, we never open doors | |
So we neglect, and don't protect the ones that's not | |
People never really seem to care | |
And then they cry out, "my people! why aren't we treated equal?" | |
As we flee, we flee our own communities | |
We leave our family in poverty | |
And then we blame it on another, so family please recover | |
Oh c'mon please come now with you can come with me now and blow now | |
If you want to, we're through... | |
Chorus 4x |
