We keep embellishing upon the new unchartered path | |
Expressing what we see and how we comprehend the math | |
So there's enough for everyone | |
We gotta make it last, we gotta make it last | |
As I embark on life's journey from the point where | |
I'm atPeace to everyone, | |
I know and who | |
I go way back | |
With every pimp, every mack, every gang star, the | |
JackEvery hustler feeding babies anybody pro-black | |
Every sister raising kids without the help of a dad | |
Wanting for they're children all the things that they never had | |
All the brothers handling businesses, | |
I know shit's hard | |
Waking up at 5 a.m. holding down 3 jobs | |
All my Rasta brethren getting insight from trees | |
To my brothers up in college getting | |
PhD'sOr any other degree, even if you just reading for mental health | |
Feed your conscious so that your mind is free | |
All my people locked down for your past mistakes | |
Mentally and spiritually dwelling past the gates | |
You can change your ways, elevate today | |
To all recovered alcoholics chillin' up in | |
A.A.Every black-owned business keep doin' for self | |
Helpin' out the community and spreadin' the wealth | |
Understanding help ain't gonna come from nowhere else | |
Revolutionary's fakin' me and just get dealt | |
With head on black people got to lead the task | |
Educate keep learnin', got to question, ask | |
And let your light keep shinin' and remember the past | |
By any means necessary you'll be free at last | |
We keep embellishing upon the new unchartered path | |
Expressing what we see and how we comprehend the math | |
So there's enough for everyone | |
We gotta make it last, we gotta make it last | |
As I embark on life's journey from the point where | |
I'm atPeace to everybody strivin' to live right and exact | |
Even though anxieties try to pull you down | |
See your troubles as a blessing and you're homeward bound | |
Everybody gotta struggle, that's the way of the world | |
Can't develop biceps if you don't do curls | |
Can't achieve a garden if you never water your crops | |
If you never pay your dues then you don't get props | |
Couldn't eat a proper meal without cooking it first | |
Can't receive a paycheck if you don't do work | |
If it wasn't for the rain then the trees won't grow | |
When the spring came around what a site to bestow | |
When you face adversities, dark cloud won't last | |
If you never study how do you expect to pass | |
The grasshoppers laid around while the ants did chores | |
When the winter came around he was left outdoors | |
See the cycle keeps moving like a big machine | |
Evolution of the mind, soul, body and being | |
God'll never put up on you more than you can take | |
Sometimes you even gotta learn from other people's mistakes | |
With head on black people got to lead the task | |
Educate keep learnin', got to question, ask | |
And let your light keep shinin' and remember the past | |
By any means necessary you'll be free at least | |
We keep embellishing upon the new unchartered path | |
Expressing what we see and how we comprehend the math | |
So there's enough for everyone, we gotta make it last | |
We gotta make it last, we gotta make it last |
