| [00:00.00] | Work In Progress （）-Nappy Roots |
| [00:02.814] | Wise words bein'spoke huh y'all know what it is |
| [00:14.851] | Nap nappy roots can I start this one off okay |
| [00:20.209] | Each day I listen what the streets say |
| [00:22.162] | Like a DJ my negroes scratch ghetto recording's |
| [00:24.881] | For my peoples got the eyes of an eagle |
| [00:26.729] | Can't see us ever bein'at peace for a reason 'cause we ain't |
| [00:29.337] | Never bein'equal they got us believin'we heathens uncivil soldiers |
| [00:32.551] | Of evil reach up and assume the position |
| [00:34.678] | You know the procedure |
| [00:35.670] | Can't even leisure smoke hollow reefer without police |
| [00:38.233] | And search and seizure by the same police who murdered creaser |
| [00:40.622] | It's brutal |
| [00:41.325] | Seein'them treat us like lower creatures than human beings more |
| [00:44.103] | So like aliens tourin'the land of Europeans |
| [00:46.439] | Seemin'to have the tendency to think we ignorant |
| [00:48.735] | 'Cause of our pigment can't take away |
| [00:50.583] | A niggas dignity though still I pimp the industry hoe and even when |
| [00:54.504] | I'm rich I'm a pretend to be poor |
| [00:56.256] | My life's a work in progress soon to be |
| [00:58.120] | End of the road but I don't stress cause I have been her before |
| [01:00.793] | You know |
| [01:01.514] | My life's a work in progress |
| [01:04.279] | And even though I'm rich I'm gonna pretend to be poor |
| [01:06.636] | My life's a work in progress |
| [01:09.513] | But I don't stress 'cause I have been here before |
| [01:11.937] | My life's a work in progress |
| [01:14.537] | And even though I'm rich I'm gonna pretend to be poor |
| [01:16.993] | My life's a work in progress |
| [01:19.769] | But I don't stress 'cause I have been here before |
| [01:22.97] | In life every step you take every right every left you make |
| [01:25.532] | You can look at it like chess in a way 'cause life is best when |
| [01:28.953] | You take your time don't make a move unless you done made up |
| [01:32.96] | Your mind play by the rules don't ever play the fool |
| [01:34.687] | Sometimes you play and lose but you still pay your dues |
| [01:37.292] | Come on |
| [01:37.869] | Everybody knows the cost to be the boss |
| [01:39.759] | Yeah the price is kind of steep but sacrifice is never cheap |
| [01:42.351] | I learned that life can be sweet |
| [01:43.743] | And bitter at the same time it's the ying verse the yang |
| [01:46.327] | Sorta like rain without shine |
| [01:47.447] | Sometimes against the grain you grind |
| [01:48.928] | Gotta grit your teeth and bear it |
| [01:50.232] | Matthew 5verse 5the earth the meek shall inherit |
| [01:52.957] | Cherish the day before you perish away 'cause who can say |
| [01:55.781] | How many days your power last |
| [01:57.461] | It's like a crack in your hourglass |
| [01:59.625] | In a flash the hours pass |
| [02:01.505] | Then you're gone gone gone |
| [02:03.545] | My life's a work in progress |
