J-live - I Say Peace lyrics

[Hook x2] I say peace when I walk through the wilderness In spite the devils civilization I'm filled with this calm that I radiate Know when I'm armed with a bomb that'll slay the hate [Verse 1] Right here in my palm I brainstorm as the best knower of self With an art full of rhymes it survives over time These are just one kind mans words for mankind When you walk with your God watch out for land mines That divide and conquer, profit from the prophets Conceal the truths pipeline like a soffit You're telling me I'm going to hell man, get off it I told you it's a path not a destination My heaven and hell are just exits on a highway Like truth or consequences So where do you get off trying to judge me Justice will be a reward or penalty But one thing's for sure though, you will remember me As strong whether neutral, ally or enemy If not the name, then the face will serve the same purpose As to make ya'll nay-sayers nervous [Hook] Who am I supposed to thank for my circulation Or my respiration I know he was Haitian But aside from that, all he gave me was a name But a seed is a seed so we're still the same My pops bounced but I need no explanation Or extra patience Would I look like waiting for a mystery man to spark conversation I'mma be where he wasn't for my own little nation Now who I gotta thank for making it this long From the sidewalks of New York to write this song See mamma ain't raised no fool, nah She raised a wise soldier, and taught him how to get over Yo I've been around the sun and back Three times since the first time I said that And guess where my head's at Over the same foundation on the next story The next chapter What you think I rap for Merely to repeat myself in different ways Simply to show off, amuse and amaze, nah I'm trying to show and prove god through music see Ten years strong, this is not just a phase [Hook]
