Dave Burnham - Reverence lyrics

(Maxi Jazz) My name is Maxi Jazz and I ain't no joke I make you choke on the mic When I go for broke When I come into a jam I tear off my shirt I have no knowledge of fear, cause I'm here to do work Uh Yeah Watch me ride.. Take my words and the ba** Taste and then swallow me No chasing the devil Cause you're level if you follow me For quality, and I make no apology For linking my thinking with computer technology 'Cause this is like a modern day hymn For the new church, I search for the truth I got a hole in my tooth, I'm uncouth, yes sir I'm from a street university where we Learn to earn even in times of adversity And I would find the easy way out of a hard time Petty crimes, some time but now I'm inclined to find A fresh direction, kiss me neck, check out the funky section 'Cause this is the part where I start to rip up words A comfort coming straight from my heart I'm not a mystic My views are realistic Simplistic One special brew I get pissed quick And get sick so I don't do it no more I won't find peace of mind Rolling around on the floor The point I want to make is You can never escape from your fate The mistake is to take without giving From within, You wanna know how I'm living I'm cool.. I'm looking after myself And I would never put wealth before my spirit I feel it's unhealthy The devil creep around ya, so stealthy stealthy 'Til you get bold, rush the gold And before your much older, your soul is sold And where's it gettin ya? Competition starts swearing ya Golddiggers setting you up Soon be forgetting your existence Do ya need a for instance I hafta admire your persistence In sticking to a game plan That brings ya pain man And at the end of the day nothing is gained So listen to the voice within I'll see ya later Pay heed to the Grand Oral Disseminator Quiet, still, you feel there's nothing going on Until you realize the space behind your eyes Is filling up with something like peace As your thoughts cease and Pleasure grows in your soul I ain't a Christian, sometimes I feel like dissin' 'em But listen, I'm just tryin' to tell you, what I know If you could, once relax Chill to the max, these words on wax Would cause sweet bells to ring in your soul If I say God is alive I know you wanna know why Babies die, food don't grow, why trains smash, planes crash Situation mash and slam bam your fellow man Money's in fashion, huh, it ain't rational Because damn it, he didn't just give us the planet And its wealth, deep inside your soul he left a piece of himself The lord is in here. His voice is small You keep lying and trying Denying the call From inside You can't hide responsibility So decide from today just how it's going to be Thou shalt have no other god but me He can set you free, see But you have to listen Now who's that false idol I see you kissing Money, success and untold wealth, good health And all you have to do is love yourself It's a fact you'll attract all the things that you lack So just chill And get off the racetrack And take a pace back, face facts It's your decision You don't need eyes to see You need vision Continue to view the lord as being separated And You're living a lie that's been perpetrated For many centuries, I wanna mention these facts in my rap Huh, I don't sing But I want to share the peace that they bring My name is G.O.D The Grand Oral Disseminator
