Malachi - The Movement lyrics

[Hook] 'Cause it's the movement, we use it to build the culture And before we die, gotta k** these vultures 'Cause they circle and wait for the art to die But we can't save sh** if we don't start to try [Verse 1: Qusai] As I'm looking back at the hip hop days when music used to be A creative expression and a message for you and me But now, I see, the community is lost Attracting crowds like puppets by letting them pay unlimited costs I'm living and ready to die for what I believe in The purpose supporting and the goals we're achieving So, I walk around with a trash can 'Cause there's a lot of garbage around to dump nowadays, man [Verse 2: D-Light] I push lyrics through my spirit and distribute to thousands To the hood, suburbs, and the public housing Anybody with a boombox who cops hip hop Try to keep it crisp hot, burnin' and scorching Enforcin' laws and the rules of the game Changed up, it's the life fight who remains All the people on the rise, that'll die for this You can't k** what it is real, I survive and spit [Verse 3: Malachi] His beginning was the word And the word was positive Not exactly gospel but truth, it had gotta hit Singing songs of paying god They appreciated me for what I has [?] The world was led to Malachi, now that's low But by the grace of he, we moving on Though we seldomly hid the voice and freedom in our songs Spinnin' wheels and plates In other words we wastin' breath When we get to Revelations, realize there's nothin' level [Verse 4: X:144] Blah, stop the rigor mortis from za Ten whipping our culture off weed curse off the la Ten of us falling off the access on accident And put them price under you talent So we can stop the fast n***a Mad since your at Since objected to pay them taxes Crating out to throw your Glock Sister focus on the object of their mo Tipped your flow, face down in the river of the industries bayou [Verse 5: Swamburger] Tossed to the side I'd rather be giving you the benefit of the doubt for matter And live for the movement And make they moods matter So I only But facing dreams Cause I had a thing for reaching out to bring humility just to give 'em flows To resurrect the reason of why these moods make songs that prolong The forces pushin me to the point I'm back to asking why you so stagnant [Hook] 'Cause it's the movement, we use it to build the culture And before we die, gotta k** these vultures 'Cause they circle and wait for the art to die But we can't save it if we don't start to try 'Cause It's the movement, we use it to build the culture And before we die, gotta k** these vultures 'Cause they circle and wait for the art to die But we can't save sh** if we don't start to try
