The Nature - Talib Kweli[00:00:00]
It's kind of hard to keep[00:00:10]
Faith in the things that you do[00:00:11]
When everybody turns they back on you[00:00:13]
It's kind of hard to keep[00:00:15]
Faith in the things that you do[00:00:16]
When everybody turns they back on you[00:00:18]
It's kind of hard to keep[00:00:20]
Faith in the things that you do[00:00:21]
When everybody turns they back on you[00:00:23]
It's kind of hard to keep[00:00:26]
Faith in the things that you do[00:00:27]
When everybody turns their back [00:00:28]
Yeah I know a city that's[00:00:31]
Surrounded by a beautiful beach[00:00:32]
The economy boosted by the[00:00:34]
Drugs they move in the street[00:00:35]
More clearer than the crystal sky [00:00:36]
Blue as the beast[00:00:38]
The people ain't got shoes[00:00:39]
For they feet or food to eat[00:00:40]
So they hurtin but what's[00:00:42]
For certain you can get you some heat[00:00:43]
And over beef you laid to rest[00:00:44]
Like you was gettin some sleep[00:00:46]
Where the little kids get ammunition[00:00:47]
You can't get no nutrition[00:00:49]
Or any type of suitable living condition listen[00:00:51]
They shoot you over that paper [00:00:53]
It's just survivalist human nature[00:00:54]
To put you out of your misery[00:00:56]
Like euthanasia[00:00:57]
Don't let them fool you we[00:00:58]
Ain't different than the youth in Asia[00:00:59]
Africa and Europe [00:01:01]
It's a small world we truly neighbors[00:01:01]
If they the third world[00:01:03]
Then who the first to get to heaven[00:01:04]
I know it's hard but who[00:01:06]
Does God choose to go through it worst[00:01:07]
Usually it's the prophets [00:01:09]
Ask a cat what really matters[00:01:09]
Nowadays usually it's his pockets[00:01:12]
We gotta get back to[00:01:13]
What really matters[00:01:16]
We gotta search our soul[00:01:19]
To find out what we're after[00:01:20]
The more I find my voice[00:01:24]
The more they try to make it harder[00:01:25]
Mom and dad don't forget [00:01:29]
To warn your sons and daughters[00:01:31]
About the-na-ture-of-the-world-to-day [00:01:34]

Word Don't nobody talk no[00:01:55]
More they all text message[00:01:57]
Drivin and typin [00:01:58]
Not payin attention missin they next exit[00:01:59]
Dependin on navigation[00:02:01]
They ever know where they goin[00:02:03]
They stayin stuck in[00:02:04]
One spot they not growing[00:02:05]
I'm so over crying[00:02:06]
Waitin and hoping playing the blame game[00:02:07]
The game changed me into like Dwayne Wayne[00:02:09]
I'm getting high just to maintaing[00:02:12]
Take my music like a drug and drop[00:02:14]
The needle in the same vein[00:02:16]
I get a rush like I'm tweekin off blow[00:02:17]
Except it ain't via the nose[00:02:19]
It's from deep in my soul[00:02:21]
The street slang I be speakin in code[00:02:22]
Kick in the do's freaking the[00:02:24]
Flow 'til the speakers explode[00:02:25]
We in control [00:02:26]
The people know I speak the truth[00:02:27]
The power of my roots[00:02:29]
Is thicker than sour sop[00:02:30]
And they so strong they[00:02:31]
Bustin out the flower pot[00:02:32]
Family tradition is to[00:02:33]
Tell 'em you love 'em[00:02:34]
While your family livin from[00:02:35]
Granny in the kitchen the little man in prison[00:02:36]
We gotta get back to[00:02:38]
What really matters[00:02:40]
We gotta search our soul[00:02:43]
To find out what we're after[00:02:44]
The more I find my voice[00:02:48]
The more they try to make it harder[00:02:50]
