We been doing this for a long long time now...this music thing... and touring, y'know...and still... |
|
I ain't met one person that could maintain righteousness |
|
Know what |
|
I'm sayin?[Verse 1 - Tech N9ne] |
|
A wise man told me evil was lurkin and if you found ittry your best to not put yourself around it |
|
Cuz when you in it you tend to push it to the limit butthen when the sin beginnin you wish you would stay grounded |
|
I went all over the world and |
|
I done been through itat the beginning |
|
I knew I wouldn't give in to itbut temptation over the sensationwomen |
|
I'm embracin, so many of them waitin |
|
Contemplatin how to get fornicationat yo door when its late with the motivation of |
|
Satanso they say, but things go they waybut its more then pay told her hey yo the phase for today |
|
But lust it sets in, and crush your chest infor dust your destined, if drugs are let in |
|
Enough to nest in, probably make you punch your best friendand next kin cuz you let s-e-x win |
|
You mean to tell me you can fight this landwith brightness and walk the path of the righteous man? |
|
Yo, I want to believe that, itching to see thatif a positive person can shake the negative feedbackthat this life has to offer what its faster |
|
What a disaster if you didn't obey the master |
|
Cuz that's mutiny, it would be new to meif you was on tour with |
|
Tecca Nina and still you could be[Chorus - Krizz Kaliko (Strange Lane Choir)](Holy, holy) |
|
If you lived in another world would you(Know me, know me) |
|
I know you be strong, but you been gone a(While) |
|
I know you still my(Child) |
|
So I'm pullin for you(Don't you owe me) |
|
Your soul and if you know it wont(Show me, show me) |
|
You can see me if you look above the(Clouds) |
|
You're Holier than(Thou) |
|
So I say it for you[Verse 2 - Krizz Kaliko] |
|
How can I move the crowd without losin out of my faith? |
|
Lucifer out of the way (way) |
|
Or maybe he don't even exist |
|
I ain't gotta trip off |
|
Gettin hookers out of my system (get you out of my system) |
|
See thats how he tricks em |
|
Get em' sippin, then a big ol mickey he slips them (I wonder why) |
|
Music soothes the savage soul |
|
People could lose or win, but lack control |
|
Wish we could choose to live and fast the soul |
|
We smashin women then bypass the soul |
|
They believin everything we breathe in |
|
Half of us is |
|
Jesus, the other half is heathen |
|
And how we get that bad half out? |
|
We pray the lord would cast that out |
|
Hope you got blessins let them pass that out |
|
When we travellin and pass that route |
|
Keep us under their grace is the place where we had that doubt |
|
Where I stand, its pointin at me, but its with my hand |
|
I need you, you holier than |
|
I am, I am[Chorus - Krizz Kaliko (Strange Lane Choir)](Holy, holy) |
|
If you lived in another world would you(Know me, know me) |
|
I know you be strong, but you been gone a(While) |
|
I know you still my(Child) |
|
So I'm pullin for you(Don't you owe me) |
|
Your soul and if you know it wont(Show me, show me) |
|
You can see me if you look above the(Clouds) |
|
You're Holier than(Thou) |
|
So I say it for you[Verse 3 - Tech N9ne] |
|
This verse was intended for a gospel rapper that we all admireand he goes by the name of |
|
Da T.R.U.T. |
|
H.All we wanted was a righteous man to lead us in the right directionand maybe if he came we could change and regroup |
|
So we laid it down and sent it hopin' we would rap wit us, track splittas, |
|
Waited, and none of his people got back wit us |
|
We kept callin' and they finally answered, when a month passed |
|
We was prepared to do whatever, give it if he wants cashbut the lady who represent em would never send 'em a message from a secular messenger |
|
Never be no nepotism, we supposed to be brothers, on the road to teach othersbut the flow would be covered, don't wanna mess with |
|
Tech they know that we smotheredanybody who diss us, retire they weak flow |
|
Cuz this is the pinnacle, nobody flyer than me, bro |
|
If you didn't like it then |
|
I admire the ego, |
|
And if they never told ya, then you better fire ya people |
|
Cause fallen angels came for your help and then she pushed 'embut |
|
Christians be the first to run they mouth about |
|
Muslimsbut they always helpin in the hood, but y'all closed me outy'all didn't even really wanna know what we bout |
|
And we bombay, trippin on this on the don spayand |
|
I had to spit on in cuz |
|
I couldn't afford |
|
KanyeI needed help, your people showed me the wallbe lowly as y'all, |
|
I guess y'all wasn't holy at all... naw! |
