| [00:21.12] |
Is this how you made it, or is this sickness out of control |
| [00:24.30] |
Is the beginning of the end right now? |
| [00:26.49] |
Let me know |
| [00:27.27] |
Do the saved souls travel the road of the souls lost? |
| [00:31.47] |
How come the dead can't talk? |
| [00:33.18] |
Through horrified eyes |
| [00:34.50] |
I can picture the other side |
| [00:36.00] |
Though my heart shed tears outside |
| [00:38.16] |
I couldn't cry |
| [00:38.88] |
Watched my homeboy die, day by day body tired |
| [00:42.03] |
Remember, |
| [00:42.81] |
I finally accounted before he expired |
| [00:44.94] |
They tell me there's a peaceful place, |
| [00:46.92] |
I wanna see it |
| [00:47.88] |
They say I gotta leave it to see it, so it be it |
| [00:50.91] |
And though |
| [00:51.36] |
I appreciate bein' alive |
| [00:53.76] |
Sometimes |
| [00:54.27] |
I wanna see how it feels to just die |
| [00:56.52] |
Come back and tell my story to the ones who really know me |
| [00:59.31] |
Converse with the angels and elders that went before me |
| [01:02.34] |
And satisfy the hunger for those who wanna know |
| [01:05.07] |
If there's life after death, and if so, where we go |
| [01:08.19] |
I often find myself involved in deep thought |
| [01:11.19] |
I wanna see is heavens a place like we thought |
| [01:13.92] |
And Christian science seems to think it's just a mindstate |
| [01:16.80] |
But before |
| [01:17.40] |
I put my trust in a man, |
| [01:18.78] |
I'll just wait |
| [01:19.95] |
Or better yet, |
| [01:20.94] |
I take the journey for myself |
| [01:22.65] |
Put a bullet in my own head, it's my death |
| [01:25.38] |
So when 12 o'clock jump on eve of 11-9 |
| [01:29.64] |
Suicide!Just as |
| [01:31.44] |
I thought, a bright light |
| [01:33.96] |
Greeted by friends and family, so life-like |
| [01:37.44] |
Black and in between screams and then peace |
| [01:40.29] |
Lookin' in the eyes of the grieved and deceased |
| [01:42.93] |
Father please, send me back, |
| [01:44.85] |
I don't wanna die |
| [01:46.14] |
I'm not as strong as |
| [01:47.31] |
I was and |
| [01:47.88] |
I can't lie |
| [01:49.02] |
During all the mayhem somehow |
| [01:50.82] |
I remained calm |
| [01:52.20] |
And I woke up singing this song |
| [01:54.57] |
I been a pawn and |
| [01:55.47] |
I been a king |
| [01:57.33] |
And I been down since the beckoning |
| [02:00.12] |
I try to look beyond the sight of sound |
| [02:03.54] |
And the lights come from the underground |
| [02:05.94] |
Rarely got questions but |
| [02:07.59] |
I found myself somewhat astound |
| [02:09.78] |
And through my quest for the answers, know what |
| [02:11.46] |
I found?I found that regardless to what people say |
| [02:15.00] |
The shooters gotta do it day for day, so make your peace |
| [02:17.85] |
Open your books to the first chapter, verse four, page eight |
| [02:20.82] |
And link to my thoughts as my intents are to initiate |
| [02:24.03] |
And enter the minds of the ones who are blind |
| [02:26.34] |
And shed light to all the mankind written in rhyme |
| [02:29.25] |
I preach to each to get off your ass, stand on your feet' |
| [02:32.04] |
Cause everyday it's niggas lyin' dead in the stree |
| [02:34.89] |
We stuck in our ways, it's different now than back in the days |
| [02:38.01] |
**** what they say, 'cause ain't no comin' back from the grav |
| [02:40.74] |
So when the gun goes pop and the lights go out |
| [02:44.31] |
Then you'll understand what |
| [02:45.60] |
I'm talkin' about |
| [02:46.65] |
I had a dream and seen a double sun |
| [02:48.84] |
A different world was in the makin' |
| [02:50.64] |
The ruler of this new world was |
| [02:52.17] |
SatanThe sky turned blood-red, the silent trumpet started playin' |
| [02:56.58] |
Then I woke up, my imagination |
| [02:58.53] |
Runnin' wild but then again the coming of |
| [03:00.96] |
ChristCould be the moment of any minute, now or tonight |
| [03:04.02] |
So make your peace, 'cause 666 is the mark of the beast |
| [03:06.96] |
It's dark in these streets |
| [03:08.07] |
And some might see it hard to believe but |
| [03:09.99] |
God is in me |
| [03:11.07] |
Yeah, though |
| [03:11.67] |
I walk through the valley of the wickedness |
| [03:13.86] |
I know I'm protected 'cause |
| [03:15.12] |
I'm convicted |
| [03:15.96] |
Anybody believin' in the |
| [03:17.55] |
Big Bang Theory |
| [03:18.93] |
And thinkin' that thyself is the |
| [03:20.31] |
God, you need to hear me |
| [03:21.66] |
How do you explain the skies, the moon, the stars and the rain |
| [03:24.39] |
The sun and the sea the |
| [03:25.59] |
Earth without form facing the deep |
| [03:27.51] |
Darkness and challengin' the powers that be |
| [03:30.39] |
It's impossible for scientists to make up the seeds |
| [03:33.06] |
Didn't make up the trees, so why we turn our backs on the truth? |
| [03:36.12] |
This heaven and hell part we seem to hide from the youth |
| [03:38.97] |
I'm tellin' what few tongues of the evil will despise |
| [03:41.97] |
My intention's to revitalize, still |
| [03:44.19] |
I reviveAnd |
| [03:45.12] |
I've read the books, and |
| [03:46.56] |
I heard the lessons |
| [03:47.85] |
And I'm on my knees steady stressin', you make your peace |
| [03:51.03] |
I been a pawn and |
| [03:51.69] |
I been a king |
| [03:53.55] |
And I been down since the beckoning |
| [03:56.40] |
I try to look beyond the sight of sound |
| [03:59.73] |
And the lights come from the underground |
| [04:02.16] |
Rarely got questions but |
| [04:03.78] |
I found myself somewhat astound |
| [04:05.97] |
And through my quest for the answers, know what |
| [04:07.65] |
I found?I found that regardless to what people say |
| [04:11.19] |
The shooters gotta do it day for day, so make your peace |
