GZA - Jewels lyrics

* Provides back-up vocals [Intro: George W. Bush sample] In my State of the, my State of the Union Or State... my speech to the... nation Whatever you wanna call it, my speech to the nation... (So let me drop it on you, this what I speak, I only speak To teach what they can't teach) [Cilvaringz] Aiyo, pardon me Jacob, but let me school these fools And turn up the heat, melt their cool with j**els I gave, poems for rules, draped morals and epics Spoke with dumb, deaf & blind, wise Pagans and kept it Then watched them fake preachers panic, cuz they food for thought Got pesticides, but mine is organic I got to stimulate their brain system Wrong of the light for great wisdom, hear me? Health & school systems? Your soul that rock Cuz of Cuba, it's all free to stay alive That's why we love Castro and love Yugo That's why we know so much more sh** than you know Oh Indian land, home of the brave Where great soldiers bring democracy for the wide blue grave Oh Indian land, home of the grave And great culture fast food, and Guantanamo Bay I saw God's work privatized, I saw graving images idolized I saw, young girls sodomized, tears dropping down my mama's eyes But when you stand before God, it's too late to apoligize And I can go on and on with this But got to go speak to my people first Cuz it hurts to see Christians, Athiests, Jews Treat me better than my own m**m brothers do Live professors, ain't even living out the lessons And I ain't talking bout your Five Percenters I'm talking bout your faces turn to Heidi Klum, cash and bums But what about the thirteen ninety ones Where mighty gun, your brothers fight against with little rocks Or socialism battling the Bill from Little Rock Riddles stop with the words I speak; listen I never teach, I drop words to seek, so get 'em See got your Google, but stay truthful I'm in the cut, Chessboxing Noodles Cutting this struddle, laughing at George [Interlude: George W. Bush sample] It'll take that, to destroy chaos Poor people aren't necessarily k**ers Are we gonna raise kids, without knowing we have a gun? [Hook 2X: GZA] The world is filled with chaos and nonsense Gets no better, with negative responses The chain of events, creates a global effect k**ing for dollars and cents, to get local respect The magnitude of the destruction, untold Countless souls, after the drama, unfolds Time is a terrible, thing to waste So the mind must think, at a peaceful pace [Hook 2X: Cilvaringz] Time is a terrible, thing to waste So the mind must think, at a peaceful pace [Outro: George W. Bush sample] I know what I believe I will continue to articulate what I believe And what I believe, and I believe what I believe is right
