Many will listen a few will understand
Yea...
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous over-stand
Only the righteous over-stand
You seen the righteous in my generation
You seen the righteous even though we be in sin
Send a message to your unknow friend
Now you sacrifice your well-known kin
What's been going on in your mind
Niggas gotta have the heart to do the crime
Niggas seen his whole life in his eyes
Flash before his eyes
Surprise
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous over-stand
Only the righteous over-stand
Who's a righteous man on the land
Within the city with the golden plan
Never shook the hand of a wicked man in the spirit realm
Watch out for the people hating
On the righteous of our nation
Heritage turned to folly
Somebody tell somebody
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous inner-stand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous understand
Only the righteous over-stand
Only the righteous over-stand
