| [00:28.38] |
Somebody wanted guidance, looked inside to find it |
| [00:31.20] |
You know them blind kids, money on their eyelids |
| [00:33.65] |
Kissin' on the fly gyp ship from the Egyptian islands |
| [00:36.46] |
Gems in the hymns said the chant |
| [00:38.52] |
The moon man grins, hair on my chin grows |
| [00:41.09] |
Hair on my chest burn |
| [00:42.66] |
Flare in my soul cold, I can't sleep |
| [00:44.53] |
Let alone, stay awoke, smoking dope like |
| [00:46.80] |
Its like Shaitan find another way to choke |
| [00:49.67] |
Another day broke, money ain't my motto, nope |
| [00:52.17] |
Traded peace for the sorrow that I swallow |
| [00:54.55] |
Bottle after bottle, like the role models of the hollow |
| [00:57.55] |
Feeling like a seedless avocado |
| [00:59.86] |
Crowd screaming "Bravo! Bravo!" here's a dollar |
| [01:02.74] |
For your sorrows, can I borrow your time more tomorrow? |
| [01:06.18] |
Watch a fargo, feeling far gone from the chart that I was gonna follow |
| [01:09.86] |
It's hard to make songs when a war's going on outside |
| [01:12.74] |
No man is safe from |
| [01:13.68] |
And you can run but you can't hide forever |
| [01:16.05] |
Mother won't let up, telling me I should get up |
| [01:18.74] |
And in the meantime, on that mean grind for cheddar |
| [01:21.61] |
Underground, master shredder, gave my brother my leather |
| [01:24.24] |
Put on a sweater, I counted my change |
| [01:27.05] |
I added my blessings, I stepped into the rain |
| [01:29.61] |
To wash my brain. My friends say that I don't talk the same |
| [01:32.24] |
So dark like we don't give off the same light |
| [01:35.24] |
Wish I seen it all in plain sight to explain it on this great mic |
| [01:39.55] |
Amplify, stay wide to the nation-side, Across oceans |
| [01:42.93] |
Where the faiths collide and talk omens like grace that died |
| [01:45.93] |
On the brink of trying to make my mind |
| [01:47.99] |
Save my soul at the same time, make this rhyme |
| [01:50.49] |
Wonder, "Will I be saved in time?" |
| [01:52.24] |
Make Salah, say grace, in case God change his mind |
| [01:55.37] |
How insane am I? Just the same as you |
| [01:57.99] |
Came here, What you came to do? |
| [02:00.06] |
Just saying the truth |
| [02:01.55] |
A little more |
| [02:05.30] |
More out of life |
| [02:20.55] |
Sometimes we gotta blank out |
| [02:22.42] |
And touch the universe on some |
| [02:23.99] |
Fuck rap back with my back on the wall rap shit |
| [02:26.85] |
Cappin' at all, nappin' on God |
| [02:28.86] |
Knowing damn well half of your squad |
| [02:30.61] |
Still ain't found John |
| [02:31.79] |
Baptist, Barnes, drowning him |
| [02:34.23] |
Swimming in a pool full of shark fins |
| [02:36.17] |
Surrounding him. Rain dancing when dark days |
| [02:38.42] |
Have clouded him, cause niggas play God |
| [02:40.42] |
They just building up, doubted him |
| [02:41.86] |
Rapping about colors like someone's proud of him |
| [02:44.29] |
But don't praise fathers cause half of you grew without one |
| [02:46.92] |
Malcolms, Martins, Pacs, Chris Wallaces |
| [02:49.29] |
Muhammads, Khalil Gibrans, Akhenatens |
| [02:52.10] |
Gods and goddesses, following false promises |
| [02:54.36] |
Laws and politics, full-ride scholarships |
| [02:57.17] |
Still don't know what time it is |
| [02:58.79] |
Models and actors, rappers, coke, bottle of cris' |
| [03:01.36] |
Rope and bad words. Hope plastered on minds of ma?ana |
| [03:04.67] |
Obama, Osama, Mama, Papa |
| [03:07.24] |
God we gotcha |
| [03:08.67] |
Dealing with censorship, sponsorship, friendships |
| [03:14.73] |
Relationships, slave ship minimum wages |
| [03:17.36] |
Racist shit, we gotta find why's to change this shit |
| [03:20.48] |
Elevation, higher foundation |
