Asheru - Soon Come lyrics

[Asheru] Ashane brought the Nomo, Nomo brought the word Which is Asheru, the crew is Unspoken Heard Wes Jackson had the vision, and brought it to fruition With a little hard work, perserverance and intuition Seven Heads is the label, free to just to be The envy of emcees, my man trust me What once was a logo, is now in my bloodstream People always ask, yo Ash what does it mean? And I tell em you, yo we represent the ma**es A herd of folk, that came to set it on your a**es That's why I'm teaching cla**es, life is my syllabus Take out what you can, cause no one will deliver us Jack sh**, we moving backwards, in a downward spiral The rest of ya'll is swimming in denial Meanwhile, like we told ya'll it's about time Better make way for me and mine Chorus We gotta get what's rightfully our's like the Maroons done, Soon Come We wanna stand tall and shine bright like the noon sun, Soon Come The time for shucking and jiving and playing the coon is done, Soon Come We live by the principle of the snare, ba**, and drum, Soon Come [Blue Black] Fear ain't a factor it's the pain that's real That's why brothers run from guns made of stainless steel You can hear, shrieks of horror against the night From the helpless without enough defense to fight Children grow too fast without a strong foundation They ain't built to last, they reject their past Cut cla** and the generation gap is vast So they scared to ask, it's a difficult task We gotta, unlearn the lie, and unveil the mask Teach em how to be thorough, and not come half-a**ed Everything that we want is right behind the gla** Yo it yours for the taking, hit em, full blast Chorus We stand face to face with hardship ya'll, we never run, Soon Come Going out to all of my Cinnabunz and Wimbledons, Soon Come We wanna welcome you all into the new millennium, Soon Come Remember Sankofa, and don't forget where you come from, Soon Come [Asheru] Im 24 years old, molded by my peers and family Keep em close cause no one else can handle me Some might find it strange the way I change moods One minute from the next, go from happy to vexed With no prompt, I'd be foolish to think there's no comp With brothers outside my show standing 'round like "wanna rhyme"? Well Hip Hop is what I do You think a brother can't do this simply for the art, but I do You put this in a capusule for years, because it's timeless These rhymes ain't only nice, son I'm k**ing em with kindness And you won't find this side by side with the spineless Watered down pop sh**, bleached out and rhymeless You can go and get my brother Wes to co-sign this Seven Heads stay in the plus and not the minus Bascially meaning I got security like Linus To keep pressing on, never looking back behind us Chorus We gotta take what's rightfully ours like the Maroons done, Soon Come We wanna stand tall and shine bright like the noon sun, Soon Come The time for shucking and jiving and playing the coon is done, Soon Come We live by the principle of the snare, ba**, and drum, Soon Come Truth, balance, harmony, love, life, equality, all of the above Moutnains we gotta climb, are all equal to one , Soon Come, we Soon Come Truth, balance, harmony, love, life, equality, all of the above Moutnains we gotta climb, still equal to one , Soon Come, Soon Come
