And I'm seeking on the edge of my bed holding my head
|
Trying to make this cake like a baker
|
And get some bread
|
My mama said hustlin' does come with fed
|
Time do the crime you better be prepared
|
For what comes with it the killing the court convictions
|
Snorting, bitches, the snitches often they get acquitted
|
While the real sent to prison, to rot away while they living
|
And all because I say dope shit they on a mission
|
To nail my black ass to the wall with a conviction
|
I pray the Lawd hear me but really Lawd is ya listen'n
|
Praying when I'm in trouble I'm speaking with forked tongue
|
I say I'm out the game but I'm flinching like George Jung
|
I must be in the clutches of Satan it's all warm
|
My mama took you to the "root lady" to read my palm
|
She puts beads on my neck saying they protecting me from harm
|
But fuck this old witch, I went and got a gun
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
|
|
Looking at the bezel of my Breitling
|
Thinking that I used to sell raps for enlightenment
|
But I got lapped by them guys selling lies for the white man
|
Now I sell pies for the white man
|
And my tour bus is a moving indictment
|
This must be how Huey felt when the revolution failed
|
And in Oakland nigga turned him on to a sack of yayo
|
You know this feeling false but it feels like yeah
|
I may have lost my cause but not a reason to rebel
|
Revolutionary or drug dealer I'm in jail
|
And the C.O.'s call me nigga either way when I'm near
|
Just like they did Pac
|
Just like they do Mumia
|
Just like they doing to Mutulu or Assata if they see her
|
And ain't no justice if it's just us in court
|
For my folk and my people free Hoover free fort
|
The Lord never break us if we all on one accord
|
You know it
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
|
|
Even as I'm standing here iceless mike is priceless
|
Women with me prettier than Isis
|
Don't know if she black or a white chick
|
But I know this pussy and excitement
|
Gonna lead to indictments
|
The women and the fame put shade on enlightenment
|
I don seen dark days come to many bright men
|
I done seen a damn dime fine
|
As a fine wine take an Einstein mind
|
Leave 'em deaf dumb blind
|
Fuckin with them jezebel whores
|
Liars of Delilah even marrying a Pandora
|
Pretty parasite she will use ya, this ain't what you used to
|
Stone cold bitch she Medusa
|
Dope ass pussy might make you an abuser
|
You an addict not in love, boy
|
Don't get it confused, bruh
|
She don't need a boyfriend she just need a booster
|
She the devil's pie guy
|
You was fucking Lucifer
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
|
Oh Lord, Jesus, glory
|
Oh Lord
