|
I need some time to ease my mind
|
Thrusted in a world that I don't know
|
from my mamas lips between my mamas hips
|
I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands
|
it's that bond that keeps the movement movin' on.
|
Life is surrounded with so many insecurities
|
back stabbin' is like breathing when in poverty.
|
I try to make my sanity, with the insane
|
God is secondary to most, when they scrap for money.
|
But, then again money can cause even more death.
|
when a African becomes a nigger step n fetch n all.
|
I dare say when price is right U can buy us all.
|
well not me, cuz I don't truly give a care about you.
|
I'll move in poverty, in wealth but I'll surely move!
|
Ain't syncopated with your beats or your wack grooves
|
my break beat is to break away from yo thang
|
All these things you put on me makes this brother sing...
|
Chorus:
|
I need some time to ease my mind.
|
Mind & soul is even more important then body
|
money can put my body in all exotic spaces
|
meanwhile my mind & soul remotely dwells
|
within that fine spot between all messed up & hell.
|
And so I move on with confidence of harmony
|
And do my thang to resist this wack society
|
Cuz if you don't resist, & I mean consciously
|
you'll fool your sub-conscious into accepting it.
|
I ain't acceptin' it - I keep my focus
|
I keep my focus - I ain't acceptin'it.
|
Give me a face pencil to draw a smile on me.
|
Answer my prayer to give my Earthly body inner peace
|
Answer my prayer to give my Earthly
|
body
|
inner
|
inner peace.
|
Until that day upon which my souls released!
|
Chorus
|
need some time need some time
|
when the sista's say it then you know it's gotta be real!
|
Thrusted in a world that I don't know
|
from my mommas lips between my mamas hips
|
I'm cuddled by her hands because she understands
|
It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on
|
It's that bond that will keep the movement movin' on.
|
And so I GOTTA BE READY TO RELINQUISH
|
gotta be ready to relinquish, my breath of life for struggle.
|
That is why I tell you...
|
I need some time to ease my mind.
