Why is it you fail[00:00:00]
To see a man in the same hour[00:00:15]
That his kin come grinnin[00:00:17]
In another code fell asleep[00:00:19]
Party mode tryin to come up[00:00:21]
From the ashes that defy your lift[00:00:23]
Listen up[00:00:25]
Ladies seem sweet[00:00:25]
The ocean meets the mountain peaks[00:00:26]
Stone-walker side-walker[00:00:28]
Watch those loose lips Wall Street[00:00:29]
Numbers set by stock movers[00:00:32]
Buy my tip so I can touch[00:00:33]
Not for no print size plate saint[00:00:35]
White wasted H20[00:00:37]
Four coats'll make it glaze[00:00:39]
Beams rooted like dogwood[00:00:41]
Between the Pine wind[00:00:42]
Twenty-fo' stores with malt for sale[00:00:44]
Still fetchin water[00:00:46]
Out the well help em size[00:00:47]
Find the grind find the times[00:00:49]
Where the times weighed as hard as[00:00:51]
Find me shoes baby daddy[00:00:53]
Rico Daddy he didn't break the TV[00:00:55]
So why should I weep man gon' bye[00:00:57]
See you when my light blow[00:00:59]
Got more good than dirt to throw[00:01:00]
And I won't pull[00:01:02]
Between the halo and a fork-pitch[00:01:03]
Suffocated by my rhymes [00:01:05]
Worship High it's just another name[00:01:10]
Take your time and concentrate on it[00:01:12]
Take a stand and make your hand a fist[00:01:16]
We got a reason to resist[00:01:19]
The mortal orbit your nadir[00:01:23]
Don't cross the fade[00:01:25]
Chillin in Decatur where it's greater[00:01:26]
Secure streets[00:01:27]
In the hood late at nights dippin fine[00:01:28]
Hard not to be slippin[00:01:31]
If they come I won't run[00:01:32]
When it's time I ain't trippin[00:01:34]
I got my date[00:01:36]
And you got yours too[00:01:37]
I see the record sales soar[00:01:38]
After the death of this creator[00:01:40]
Genocidal tendencies[00:01:42]
When they mention he[00:01:43]
Who listens to Unseen Hand[00:01:44]
Cappin the faces of the young black man[00:01:47]
When they sing[00:01:49]
Knowin that we Godly got to keep it right[00:01:50]
With my people cause I'm equal no matter[00:01:53]
How much I make[00:01:55]
I can't escape fate the date as I await[00:01:56]
As I await I can't fake[00:02:00]
Can't fake I can't fake I'm true with it[00:02:03]
A duffel for the cash[00:02:07]
Platinum within myself from another earth[00:02:09]
Spill nina tea leaf your very existance[00:02:11]
Is considered a privelege[00:02:14]
Buck up and they can't be revoked[00:02:16]
Pay your taxes uhh snake eyes[00:02:19]
Strapped with flaws[00:02:21]
Still iterant to a lot of laws[00:02:23]
Man-made but that's a dot everybody[00:02:25]
From the East coast don't wear it back home[00:02:27]
Whatchu think[00:02:30]
Gettin they thoughts mixed negative[00:02:30]
After reoccurances[00:02:32]
I say a prayer plus if I entertained them[00:02:34]
It's easy to commit hard to resist[00:02:37]
And once we cross that line segment[00:02:39]
Not even our producers[00:02:42]
Can bring us back eyeballs peeled[00:02:44]
Eardrums opened[00:02:46]
Egos stripped stroked another low blow[00:02:47]
Delivered to the hip-hop culture uhh[00:02:50]
Industry consists of thieveries prostititues[00:02:53]
And Folgers if somethin bigger than us[00:02:55]
Past the blue[00:02:58]
Told us that it wasn't a heaven for G's[00:02:59]
Then we do this[00:03:02]
Continue your devilish deeds[00:03:03]
I mean activities[00:03:05]
That just show that it's a Hell[00:03:06]
For Jacks independent[00:03:09]
But you distributed by your masters[00:03:10]
Labels still a slave[00:03:14]
But you just get to eat at[00:03:16]
The white man's table[00:03:18]
Lookin like Gable Gunther[00:03:19]
On the Guinness Book of World Records[00:03:20]
God didn't like ugly[00:03:24]
And he wasn't too fond of cute either[00:03:25]
A climate of caution[00:03:28]
A climate of caution in effect[00:03:30]
Where I am you can feel God is present[00:03:46]
In the midst of darkness[00:03:49]
If you spark up bet somebody gonna see it[00:03:51]
It is necessary for me to speak these words now[00:03:53]
Another day here hasn't been promised to me[00:03:55]
Don't you agree[00:03:57]
That you never fail when you try[00:03:58]
I'm willing to die but first[00:04:00]
I am willing to live[00:04:02]
And I overstand that this will be[00:04:03]
A lifelong sacrifice in order to reveal[00:04:06]
You gon' have to destroy[00:04:08]
And if you ain't thinkin right[00:04:10]
You damn sure can't act right[00:04:11]
Somebody raise your fist[00:04:13]
And let me know I'm not alone[00:04:14]
Revolution doesn't mean fightin[00:04:16]
In these streets[00:04:18]
And it ain't gonna be no revolution[00:04:19]
Without the women and[00:04:21]
It ain't gonna be no future[00:04:22]
Without the children and[00:04:24]
It ain't gonna be no children[00:04:25]
Without the men and[00:04:27]
You can't have no love without the trust[00:04:28]
And no[00:04:31]
Trust can come without communication[00:04:31]
And you can't communicate[00:04:33]
If you ain't got shit to say[00:04:35]
You can't teach about what you[00:04:37]
Been deceived about too[00:04:39]
Any book you read is still limited education[00:04:40]
You gon' have to talk to God personally[00:04:43]
And time is short[00:04:46]
And he's on his way and I will receive[00:04:47]
A grateful word for what I've done[00:04:49]
And this is all that really matters to me[00:04:51]
In time you will see what I told you is true[00:04:54]
And I ain't have to rhyme to say that to you[00:04:56]
I ain't got to rhyme to say it to you it's true[00:04:59]
