[Hook: Tyler Diggs and Tatum Miranda] | |
[00:09.09] | If a miracle could save us from |
[00:15.08] | The travesty that we've become |
[00:19.07] | If a million sons would stand as one |
[00:24.05] | We will overcome, overcome |
[00:29.06] | If a miracle could save us from |
[00:34.06] | The travesty that we've become |
[00:38.19] | If a million sons would stand as one |
[00:42.01] | We will overcome, overcome |
[Verse 1: Inspectah Deck] | |
[00:47.79] | The whole world trippin', listen it's still a cold world |
[00:51.06] | The other day I had to bury my homegirl |
[00:54.08] | Wrong place, caught one in her face |
[00:56.09] | Plus her man's on the run and couldn't come to the wake |
[00:59.01] | For Heaven's sake, you pray God open the gate |
[01:02.03] | In this modern day Sodom, that's their only escape |
[01:04.08] | 10 year olds are cold, no, they don't hesitate |
[01:07.02] | 2 up a G pack, he chose the whole 8 |
[01:09.98] | Catch a 5 to 10 sellin' 5's and 10's |
[01:12.89] | And the police informer was your childhood friend |
[01:15.20] | In the real world, gotta hustle for your dream |
[01:18.88] | Extend your clips, fit the muzzle with the beam |
[01:21.60] | For the love of cream, it's nothin' but routine |
[01:24.89] | Swing on the judge, take a couple for the team |
[01:26.78] | He's the young Capone, he grew up in a drug home |
[01:29.07] | Stranded on the Ave with a blunt and his gun shown |
[Hook: Tyler Diggs and Tatum Miranda] | |
[01:32.09] | If a miracle could save us from |
[01:36.13] | The travesty that we've become |
[01:41.58] | If a million sons would stand as one |
[01:46.01] | We will overcome, overcome |
[Verse 2: Masta Killa] | |
[01:51.02] | A live scene theme from a Godfather saga |
[01:54.09] | A Martin Scorsese classic and I'm the author |
[01:56.07] | Drama at the opera, crime story novel |
[01:59.03] | Tuxedo suit and silencer on the nozzle |
[02:02.01] | Meeting place scheduled at the Broadway musical |
[02:05.05] | Bravo, we arrive in bulletproof limo |
[02:08.02] | Shotgun, the underboss of our main source |
[02:10.04] | Of interest, the black widow cocaine empress |
[02:13.04] | A princess rich from her family's inheritance |
[02:16.02] | Now let's talk business, begin by addressin' the bricks |
[02:19.02] | That was missin' in the last shipment |
At first, everything nice, everything routine | |
[02:24.01] | Jocks lining up the food, we blessed him with the cream |
[02"27.08] | But on this day he wasn't ready and my God sense keen |
[02:30.02] | I noticed that his normal firm handshake shook |
[02:32.01] | It wasn't steady when he squeezed |
[Hook: Tyler Diggs and Tatum Miranda] | |
[02:34.48] | If a miracle could save us from |
[02:39.77] | The travesty that we've become |
[02:44.88] | If a million sons would stand as one |
[02:48.30] | We will overcome, overcome |
[Verse 3: Raekwon] | |
[02:55.01] | He went from prince to a king out of a life of rubbish |
[02:58.09] | Wearin' tailor-made suits, Sky Dwellers and clusters |
[03:01.43] | To perfection, rags to riches, the evil's done influenced |
[03:04.87] | That pushed him off the edge, they said the greed made him do it |
[03:07.08] | You're my right hand, damn, he fucked the trust up |
[03:09.02] | It's ruined, niggas caught him slidin' on his belly |
[03:12.34] | I'm grippin' on my hammer with the silencer twisted |
[03:14.55] | Contemplatin' murder now, I'm 'bout to swerve on my biscuit |
[03:17.02] | But it's my man at the same time, I don't wanna do him |
[03:20.03] | He violated, broke a major code, bar what you stealin' now |
[03:23.04] | It's over, in the falls of Niagara, he was soakin' |
[03:26.04] | With a shell case stuck in his head, they found him floatin' |
[Hook: Tyler Diggs and Tatum Miranda] | |
[03:28.03] | If a miracle could save us from |
[03:33.45] | The travesty that we've become |
[03:37.04] | If a million sons would stand as one |
[03:41.02] | We will overcome, overcome |
[Verse 4: Ghostface Killah] | |
[03:47.02] | Allah let me lay in your arms |
[03:50.09] | Hold me like a newborn |
[03:51.55] | Sing to me the most sweetest song |
[03:53.45] | The exalted, the most benevolent |
[03:55.34] | The knower of all |
[03:57.01] | Keep me safe 'till I return back to your residence |
[03:59.03] | This Earth, my place of birth |
[04:02.43] | As time went through the ages it got worse |
[04:05.01] | Sicknesses, beheadings in Syria |
[04:07.87] | Ebola's killin' my people, it's gettin' scarier |
[04:10.67] | Most foods ain't even real, the chip is here |
[04:13.04] | Deadly fluids bein' released, contracted through air |
[04:16.03] | Dear God, it been a minute since I cried out |
[04:19.45] | Since mama died, I never wild out |
[04:21.67] | We need help like the phone's 'bout to die out |
[04:24.05] | Can you hear me? Can you hear me now? |
[04:27.03] | We need a miracle |
[04:28.06] | Destroy the FDA for holdin' back cures |
[04:31.78] | So they can get paid |
