If I say surely the darkness shall fall on me
|
Even the night shall be light about me
|
Indeed, the darkness shall not hide from you
|
But the night shines as the day
|
The darkness and the light are both alike unto you, amen!
|
Thou preparest the table before me in the presence of mine enemies
|
Thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runeth over, amen!

|
Dual pedigree, horsepower
|
Valiant, the schema, Buffalo Solider hour
|
Black hand, blue dawn in the shadow lands
|
Dove cry, high noon, make the shadows dance
|
Preacher man, say a prayer, bless the caravan
|
Bandolero plans and jackals in the the valley pass
|
Mind set on the treasures in the talisman
|
Hand set on the Holy Book and battleaxe
|
Sun moon and stars, build a map
|
Where you at? Frontier
|
Clear expansion exodus, run
|
Frontier
|
Clear expansion exodus, run

|
My grandmother told me never, ever go to sleep in the church house
|
Wear a shirt and a tie to the courthouse
|
Look the judge in the eye like a man
|
Not a thug, not a lamb, not a slave or a church mouse
|
You a king, you a god, you a holy L
|
Get out this hole and give these motherfucker holy Hell
|
So, over time I've perfected my rhymes, and
|
That's why I shine like I climbed out the Holy Grail
|
Mainstream dropout, White Widow, cottonmouth
|
Out in Queens park with a crew of dirty stop outs
|
London bridge is falling down
|
The bullets licking shots on the parliament grounds
|
And we battle every scoundrel, every henchman, every hound
|
Get lassoed by the sound, ran across the desert then shackled to the mount
|
