Yeah, after dah shinin, it all became clear to me | |
I knew things would be different son | |
I knew it'd come time for a change | |
Seems like the time is now | |
Jah! rastafarai | |
Greetings to my soldiers and soldierettes | |
Jewel on the world, make the earth sink | |
On the brink of divinity, defying gravity | |
Reachin' for infinity | |
Can he be incarcerated by the limits | |
Stuck, they can't function | |
Caught up in the scrimage | |
This game called life only lasts minutes | |
Once you in it, be in it to win it to the finish | |
As the sun heats, i put my feet to the concrete | |
Hard to sleep so i take it to the streets | |
Hold my head up, try to keep it movin' | |
Fed up with losin' | |
I need some air | |
I think i take a cruise with you | |
I'm using, what little know how i posess | |
To keep our familia down to rest | |
Now i stress defensive tactics | |
'cause police seem active | |
Got me in the crib sleepin' with heat under the mattress | |
In case of home intrusion: | |
First the dogs go "bark" | |
Then about five sparks bringin' light to the dark | |
Like ? does his movement when he's dealin' with math | |
Or the boss tell his workers where he's keepin' the stash | |
When that gun blast, better have jah on your side | |
Or an act of devine intervention from the most high | |
I know guys that get a thrill from the kill | |
And other niggaz, who hold the greed to sling ?frills? | |
Chorus | |
Demon's tryin' to take my soul away | |
But they won't get my soul today | |
Will i get locked up or blown away? | |
Just stayin' strong is a price to pay | |
(repeat) | |
Damn i haven't worked since i was 'bout 17 | |
They had time busy hangin' out being a drama fiend | |
I had to run the streets, see what the night brought out | |
Sneak in the crib | |
Hear my moms prayin' to god that i sprout | |
Take all responsibilities like a man would do | |
'cause she know that the streets can bring the worst out of you | |
She told me concentrate on school but what i do about loot? | |
I wanna push the fat ride, have bitches sweatin' me too | |
But you know you need dough so you can do the do | |
And going to class everyday don bring in no loot | |
Plus i just been told that i was cold by club bouncers | |
Standing there hot headed out to set it while they denounce us | |
Crab niggaz still beggin?for cd | |
While brothaz?careers is stuck on halt and freeze | |
About to face extinction ?pockets dead is thinkin? | |
Something ain peace and suicide part of my thinkin?even god don hear my prayer or him just not care | |
Got a son in this world, stressed out losin?my hair | |
Chorus | |
It time to take the struggle to the pavement | |
Let the people know the mayor sent the ok for enslavement | |
Orders from the government | |
Official stubborn men with egos runnin?shit | |
They put the hit out on whoever try to get out | |
And they are the directors who are dead and ? | |
Even down south in atlanta | |
Police play the pawn for their master | |
It a disaster, practicing who can kill us faster | |
For less than nothin?like they did bobby huton | |
Corruption got me clutchin?my rifle for gun bustin?somethin cookin?look at the way some faces be lookin?cross the bank rock on to brooklyn, texas | |
Even in houston p be shootin?us like sitting ducks in groups | |
And i can trust who or what | |
That will explain the way i watch you, plus, | |
I know the chosen are few | |
Many come around to proclaim things they know not | |
Let alone maintain | |
Shame, some of my worst enemies | |
Live right around me and look just like me | |
I see that its time to intensify the movements in front of my eyes | |
Can rely on a seeing dog they got me | |
Or lay and wait for the devil to surprise me, nah g | |
Chorus (twice) | |
It only takes a line to make the mind think | |
Drop a jewel on the world make the earth sink | |
I on the brink of divinity, defying gravity | |
Reaching for infinity | |
Plenty be incarcerated by the limits | |
Stuck they can function caught up in the scrimage | |
This game called life only lasts minutes | |
Once you in it, be in it to win it ill the finish | |
(repeat) |
