Yea
Oh yeah I like this right here
Its got that feel to it
It's like (da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, daaaa, da, da, da)
Well something like that (*laughs*)
[Verse 1]
I give you 180 seconds or more, rapper galore
Starting from a place to when I was 4, as I recall
I was sipping juice from a bottle, living life was the motto
So fascinated by simplicity I just wanted more
I was steady ready, to see city, had to be witty
And so gritty, pity these pretty ladies needed me in the vicinity, I was finicky
But I knew I was gon' get to see, these flashing lights, and flights overseas
Oversee, pa**ion, take me to infinite
Recognizing philosophies Aristotle and Socrates
Rise of the kundalini, has gotten my body fiendin'
For extra strength in my cranium, dose it up to the pineal gland
And I'm so Blacc like I'm the man
I'm painting pictures on canvases hoping you understand
To re-imagine reality fly you like peter pan
Cut off hallucinations that come about from the yams
You see
I'm tryna abolish discrepancy n the heresies
These competitions are nothing to me cause all I see
A bunch of fakers that try to s** up my energy
Why would I get into such a stifle to k** me mentally
Mentally, low self esteem was the mental theme
Had to move my focus, and switch my mental to get the C.R.E.A.M
But besides my confidence, I was still living in a dream
Back and forth with my conscious, I'm trying to make sense of all these things
But I guess it's how it's suppose to be
Ups and downs like elevators, elevate this thing that we (yea)
Call life, getting high off it like ecstasy
Addicted to the feeling, it's no wonder we are seldomly
Moving pa**ed the past; we live in cla**es
Hesitating to hit the gas, and lit the ma**es
Jaded by the system, so we smoking the gra**
While we, steady scheming, keep the mind on the cash
It's now 2016 and presidential elections got me far from Serene
So far from the green
So far it got me rebellin' might start a new regime
So far it keeps revealing other different sides of me
It's obscene
Still I praise God, praise to Allah
Pray for family, and my homies in da gutters
They listen to my ish, and tell me, "homie we ni balaa,"
Appreciate the love when I blow up tuko pamoja
[Martin Luther King]:
And one of the great problems of history is that the concepts of love and power, have usually been contrasted as opposites; polar opposites
So that love is identified with a resignation of power and power with the denial of love. It was this misinterpretation that caused the....
[Verse 2]
And every moment I'm awake, I feel grateful, I blessed with every breath that I get to take
With every breath i'm just busy painting a way
Father help me, I hope I don't slip away
Rest in peace to those who've fallen
All their families mourning
Pray that you find some peace in this pain, that's really important
Know a new day is dawning
Know that love is consoling
Know that hand of God is on you whenever you call him
Please
Don't forsake me lord i'm down on my knees
I, know i'm a sinner in this world thats full of greed
But I'm, still out here searching for the better side of me
On a pathway to redemption, i'm just feeling amputee
With these seeds, I'mma plant prosperity within me
Knocking on these doors till they open up completely
Kwa wote machizi kitaa na mabinti
One love to Africa, to the world we are one
(Yeah)
We are one
To the world we are one
One love...
Peace
