Graves To Dig (Amended Version) - Everlast[00:00:00]
They go one for the Prophet two for Islam[00:00:26]
Three for the Khutbah from the Imam[00:00:30]
Four for the mother that birthed my frame[00:00:33]
Five for the father 'cause he taught me game[00:00:37]
Been 'round the world songs are all the same[00:00:40]
Sometimes when I'm asleep I still call your name[00:00:43]
Back when I was young I used to dream of fame[00:00:47]
Now they all point they fingers sayin' who's to blame[00:00:50]
Mothers put their girls into pigtail curls[00:00:53]
Fathers teach their sons how to shoot their guns[00:00:57]
They say "Boy don't never cry control your emotions[00:01:00]
Just take it like a man make your stand"[00:01:03]
They say "Sex and violence go hand in hand"[00:01:06]
For every man blessed there got to be ten damned[00:01:10]
Expand through the depths of space and time[00:01:13]
Standin' three eyes blind on the firing line[00:01:16]
Word to my man divine come too far singin'[00:01:19]
"La ilaha illa Allah"[00:01:24]
Twelve rakats short on my full day's prayer[00:01:27]
Just hoping that the lord got some mercy to spare[00:01:30]
They go one for the Ummah two for the deen[00:01:33]
Three for the angels four for the alamin'[00:01:36]
Somewhere between totally obscene[00:01:40]
And perfectly clean got a Babylon feelin'[00:01:43]
Wounds that need healin' truth need revealin'[00:01:47]
Hands need washin' from all the dirty dealin'[00:01:50]
From the floor to the ceilin' from the stage to the door[00:01:54]
From the kings and the queens and the slaves and the whores[00:01:57]
For every lost cause where the martyrs are found[00:02:00]
That funky little sound that make you want to get down[00:02:03]
Somebody told me once love makes the world go round[00:02:07]
Now kids they carry pistols out on the playground[00:02:10]
That profound gone too far praying to the light from a burned out star[00:02:14]
Put your lights on put down your crosses[00:02:20]
It's time to tally up your wins and your losses[00:02:23]
They go one for Scott La Rock two for Pac and B I G [00:02:26]
And three for all the mothers who got graves to dig[00:02:30]
For all the mothers who got graves to dig[00:02:34]
For all the mothers who got graves to dig[00:02:37]
