| [00:20.29] |
I had a way then, losing it all on my own |
| [00:27.00] |
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown |
| [00:33.40] |
|
| [00:34.09] |
And I'm not sleeping now |
| [00:37.41] |
The dark is too hard to beat |
| [00:41.04] |
And I'm not keeping up the strength I need to push me |
| [00:47.60] |
sure You the lights don't stop me |
| [00:49.78] |
Turn to stone shining when I'm alone |
| [00:54.45] |
And so I tell myself that I am strong |
| [00:58.63] |
Dreaming when they're gone |
| [01:01.01] |
Cause they're calling, calling, calling |
| [01:04.08] |
Calling, calling, calling |
| [01:05.61] |
|
| [01:08.42] |
You sure the lights don't stop me |
| [01:10.63] |
Turn to stone shining when I'm alone |
| [01:14.74] |
|
| [01:17.12] |
So, what do you bunches stand for? |
| [01:19.09] |
Dreads in the sky, I and I |
| [01:20.78] |
2 new vans on a land 4 |
| [01:22.47] |
Take that back, make that 2 new shoes on a van floor |
| [01:25.93] |
Me and my band out on that road |
| [01:27.92] |
On a never-back-down-from-a-stance tour |
| [01:29.86] |
Yeah, touch more souls than a dancefloor |
| [01:33.10] |
While they touch less tours than a hand or |
| [01:36.48] |
Ceiling fan or wait, let me tell ya slower |
| [01:39.22] |
Lift my fans up to the to the ceiling |
| [01:41.28] |
And you'll never touch the floor |
| [01:42.61] |
|
| [01:44.66] |
Now if noah need a rower, I'll be there with my oar |
| [01:47.85] |
Til we get back to the shore |
| [01:49.91] |
Dad made me a soldier, gi joe to these cobras |
| [01:52.84] |
Tryna fbi my panther, cia my sankofa |
| [01:56.15] |
Infiltrate my carter, illuminate my culture |
| [02:00.09] |
While they watching through that bunker |
| [02:01.84] |
But I stay up on my hustle |
| [02:03.60] |
Turn that belt back on theyself |
| [02:05.30] |
Now I watch them scream for help |
| [02:06.93] |
Like africa need aid, or black women as maids |
| [02:10.32] |
Uncover undercovers turn those maids to?mothers |
| [02:13.51] |
Take the hero out the nino, keep it real as treble trouble huh? |
| [02:18.19] |
Or maybe cartoon martin on the boondocks |
| [02:20.58] |
Flip the script on chicks who think they shit smells like perfume shops |
| [02:24.27] |
Half them girls find beauty without a magazine or movie |
| [02:27.45] |
She delila with them 45 or keisha with that uzi |
| [02:30.94] |
Now I know that's contradiction, wants and needs and competition |
| [02:33.66] |
But it's hard to stay on point with such extremes in opposition |
| [02:37.80] |
While we waiting on that compromise, proceed with that conscious eye |
| [02:41.54] |
New gang alert: hashtag #occupies |

Only way I settle if we wrestle over everythig |

| [03:02.14] |
Funny how I'm only sick if you never catch a thing |
| [03:05.63] |
Argue with your friends over what really the record means |
| [03:08.81] |
Back and forth about it's course, with professor's refereeing |
| [03:12.44] |
Why he so rebellious? up-front with his realness? |
| [03:15.68] |
They wanna be fiasco's, reproduce his failures |
| [03:19.17] |
Emperor is his alias, but not marcus aurelius |
| [03:22.55] |
This is more like sparta: kick you down a well, kid |
| [03:26.43] |
|
| [03:27.82] |
And on my last check, I copped that nsx just like pharrell did |
