Shaka - Ma'at Lyrics

With my tongue I speak life with my pen I bring death
Appeal to my higher self and the desires of my flesh
Do it to my last breath...to my last breath
I'm the king that come through and speak peace
The same nigga that keep the hollows loaded in his piece
I'm a god and I'm a beast...I'm a god and I'm a beast
See this the duality
Of a cold blooded killer that still got morality
Love to speak to the masses and hate when they crowding me
It was a crazy situation when we walked up to that home
My cousin had the matte black, bul he had the chrome
They shot each other I had to react no thoughts known
I had to draw to escape where I was like chalk zone
I'm that conscious brother speaking to our people pain
And yet somehow I still let em keep me in them chains
Time heals most wounds yea I know but here's the thing
I can close my eyes now and still hear them shots ring
Started thinking to myself you a scholar you a king
You got finals next week how you locked up in the bing?

This that light and dark, this that yin and yang
Through all of my pain is where the lyrics came
Let it fill your veins as I entertain
We all come from a women and I know that they devine
Still a man and can't help but notice if she fine
They say Shak sometime you levitate and then you on the ground
I say well Pac made Dear Momma and I Get Around
Gotta know when to fold em and when to accept the challenge
Everything you built in life gone fall without balance
I don't pray to Jesus, nah because I know the truth
But I still play gospel when I feel I need a boost
Don't know if I'm a prophet but I often hear the gossip
Part of it feeds my ego and the other wants to stop it
Sometimes it's hard to try but I got so much to give
I don't fear death but I know I wanna live
Sometimes I listen to Oshun when I'm starring at the moon
Or bump that Dave East feeling like a goon
I use this music just to pour out what's inside of me
Paint a perfect picture of this internal dichotomy
I know my people proud of me
