Never trip, we on the rise
I judge wise as if I'm unsurprised
Lounge between the ivory pillars bumping Priest Killah
Dreaming of crazy rides like 500s
Ask God for guidance more than loving
We in real life, not Rob Rodriguez movie made macguffins, ain't no way out
I stepped in, time passed, and now I'm stage bound
Graveyard shift, stay loud, training like Greyhounds
Can't decline my shine, forever stay wild
They said this music nonsense was a phase I never came out
Turntables and stack extra reset and scratch records
Primo, L-Boog, and Mike Jack trapped in one vessel
Love and quest for knowledge, we pursue no set time schedule
Pick inside my fro, composing backbeats for all rebels
Do you want more? We serve it nine ways and we all revel
My Black Thoughts are considered revolutionary
No perdition here, boy, I serve the Ultimate Dignitary
Every day I pray Yah protect me from the incendiary
Nature of the kingdoms, of the Lord of the Flies
Never bow to Baal to play at all, I'd rather die
Word of Yahweh is my truth, let all of y'all stand as a lie
As I'm standing on all my toes, I ain't lookin' to compromise
That's on the tribe
We could rap or we could wrap you up in cellophane
I'm on timing all post-graduation, playin bare a game
Mom knew who I was, she gave me Hebrew and Nigerian names
How you gon' compete when it's me that's playin' the winning game
Just walking the streets, death can take you away
It's never guaranteed that you'll see the next day
At night, the evil armies of Shatan don't play
So defend the family, that's the code to obey
Yo, if I fall asleep and death takes me away
Don't be surprised, son, I wasn't put here to stay
At night, the evil armies of Shattan don't play
So the family sticks together and we never betray
Word is bond
