Mojoe - Strange Revival lyrics

[Hook] x2 They say the Kingdom divided shall fall... We must be Kings and Queens cause they dividing us all Dividin' us all - Dividin' us all - We must be Kings and Queens cause they dividin' us all [Verse 1: T.R.R.E.] Raids on the side of the city where they show us no love You can't show no pity out there hustlin' dubs Sippin' syrup and poppin' pills - Some of us does Where the most respected are k**ers and n***as hustlin' d** Where guns get popped, guns get co*ked, bullets fly And every week unfortunately, man, somebody die Guns, d**, and poverty, sh** - That's an evil mix An epidemic in the styx of jada marcy bricks Our leaders is block meters, our teachers is poor geekers And the most successful four go to college and they always leave us And never come back and when they come back they swing them 'lac's Lookin' down at us n***as like we some different blacks We place our culture with surpin' soda and gettin' paid Blowin' k**, and pumpin' chief, and gettin' laid And all that diamond and shinin' - Man that sh** is played Cause all my people out here dyin' trying to live a day [Hook] x2 [Verse 2: Bavu Blakes] We - We - We got immaculate sound So I know you're hearing me, now Prolly wasn't around, when my spirit was down I mostly stayed to myself - Isolated myself Stayed true to them blue - Bavu ain't make it myself Could have flip-flopped a bent, in the face of the trends Point A to B to pay the rent, but I know it's a sin Well you know you ain't supposed to do somethin' but do it and still It takes faith and patience to wait to let him do his will D.F.W. to ATX, Alia, and if it don't fit in your club: Don't play it then But say it came around and we used to be strangers then What you sayin' then? Go 'head, say it then Now Karem Abdul-Jabar, man he was tall But he had a squad, yeah he balled with Magic Jamal Got him a ring, get the meaning I'm bringin' my team in How convenient a CD you can go buy at the mall, or church [Hook] x2 [Verse 3: Easy-Lee] To my people in the lower 9 Just know you shine in the eyes of the greatest minds The greatest teacher let him lead ya and I'm sure you'll find A great reward for your struggle on the other side A single mother cries - While that father on the grind dies inside This is wintertime - "Thou shalt not k** on a picket sign" I'm on a picket line - n***as brighten like they happy just to murder cappy I'm back home with my brother layin' bricks down When I hear a gun blast - Then the tires peel See the neighbors gather 'round cause they knew the child And this is every day - Two or three a day So I do my track too on that new J - like Lupe I'm Kickin' and I'm Pushin' for a new way Cause the old way's cooled as the DJ [Hook]
