Aaallllthough There Are Oceans We Must Cross (We Must Cross)
And Mountains That We Must Climb (We Still Got A Long Way To Go)
{"I Testify"}
I Knoooooooow That Every Game Must Have A Loss
So Pray That Our Loss Is Nothing But Time
(It Seems That Anybod Will Buy In To Anything These Days. It's Funny But It's Serious. Listen.)
[Verse 1: Cla**ified]
Now This Is All Before The Throw Backs, Trucker Hats, Spinners And The Platinum
Fans Come And Go, Ya'll Need To Recognize What's Happenin'
Far As I Remember, In 1982, There Was No One Hatin' You If You Rocked The Latest Shoes
Sytles Change Daily Like Everyones Opinion
Buy The Latest Fashion Just So You Can Fit In
In '89 Everybody Had Hammer Pants
And They Was Topped Off Nice With A Brand New [?]
Everybody Wore It
Now-A-Days Ain't A Chance That Any Of Us Sport It
And That's Why I Record This
Wanted All The Newest Style But Could Never Afford It
But Did Have A Mullet In My Elementry Porterate
Lesson Learned I Looked Stupid As Hell
But I Can Laugh At Myself Now Cause Kid I'm Doing Well
I Just Do It For Myself
Make Sure My Music's Felt
This Is Real Life Reality, Play What You Was Dealt
C'mon!
Aaallllthough There Are Oceans We Must Cross (We Must Cross)
And Mountains That We Must Climb (You Gotta Win To Lose, You Gotta Lose To Win)
{"I Testify"}
I Knoooooooow That Every Game Must Have A Loss
(Don't Be Jumpin' On The Newest Thing Every Other Day. Cause It's Going Quicker Than It Came.)
So Pray That Our Loss Is Nothing But Time
[Verse 2: Cla**ified]
Hookin' Sped-Up Samples, Everybodies Usin' It
I Try To Skip Past But Can't Bring Myself To It
What Sounds Good Is Good, Keep It Plain And Simple
But Pitch Hit The Vocals And Slice A b**h Insturmental
Back To The 80's Though, Kids Wearing Bike Shorts
Lookin' Like They Idoits, So This Is What I Write For
Open Your Eyes, All These Fans Are Fading Out
Like Pull-Over Chicago Bull And L.A. Raider Coats
Say It Ain't So But All Of It Gets Played Though
Like Sneakers With Velcro, Speakin' What You All Know
Preachin' With A Raw Flow, Tryin' To Make It Easy
You Don't Need To Buy These Things Just Cause It's On The Tv
Believe Me! I Did The Same Thing In High School
I Had The Doc Martin Shoes And Thought "Cla**ified's Cool"
But C'mon That Went Out Quicker Than A British Night
So Now I Spit It Right Everytime I Hit The Mic
Wha!!
Aaallllthough There Are Oceans We Must Cross (We Must Cross)
And Mountains That We Must Climb (Still Goin')
{"I Testify"}
I Knoooooooow That Every Game Must Have A Loss
(Another Trend Another Day)
So Pray That Our Loss Is Nothing But Time
[Verse 3: Cla**ified]
And I Remember Women With Their Haircut Lookin' A Straight Menace
With They Bangs A Foot In The Air Like Elaine Bennes
These Wack Trend Setters Get Backed By Pretenders
Leg Warmers, Mesh Shirts, All That sh**!
I Remember!
I'm Sick Of Seeing 'no Fear' On Peoples Windsheilds
Cause Everybody Had It On Their Car Or Truck In Enfield
Remember Fanny Packs, Or Pouch, Or Whatever You Called It
Kids Used To Wear Them With Nothin' In It And Think They We're Ballin'!
We All Fell In To It
But Yes This Game Is Fresh
So I Still Try To Improve It, Persue It
But If Rap Fails, I'm Growin' Back My Rat Tail
Movin' Back To Enfield And Livin' A Simple Life
Aaallllthough There Are Oceans We Must Cross (And That's It)
And Mountains That We Must Climb (We're Still Goin' Uphill)
{"I Testify"}
I Knoooooooow That Every Game Must Have A Loss
(We Gotta Learn From Our Mistakes, You Know We're Wastin' Money Out Here)
So Pray That Our Loss Is Nothing But Time
Aaallllthough There Are Oceans We Must Cross
And Mountains That We Must Climb
I Knoooooooow That Every Game Must Have A Loss
So Pray That Our Loss Is Nothing But Time
