Rebirth

Rejuvenating meditating let the story begin
Rebirth to my people tan, black, brown skin
Soul seeking liberation, people, love your kin
Revolution won't be televised it starts within
Rebirth of free think, to yourself be true
Group-think is a disease, but you scared of the flu
Covering your true nature like a bad tattoo
But nobody can do you better than you
Rebirth of empathy, love yourself and others
Stealin', fighting, killing when we're supposed to be brothers
We already in a war, why shoot at each other
No one cares for the poor, only self-discover
Rebirth of real shit, cuz we been waiting
Conspiracy and lies, political debatin'
Civil war against blacks, but they focused on Caitlyn
Wantin' me to dumb it down, but I can't take it
Wantin' me to act white, but I won't fake it
Just another nigga from the US Nation... yeah
Just another nigga from the US Nation
I could have freed more if they only knew they were slaves
But I gotta keep goin' cuz fortune favors the brave
I could have freed more if they only knew they were slaves
But I gotta keep goin cuz this won't be my fate
Stop comparing me to light skin girls on yo tv
May be kinda pretty but these hos can never be me
Yo pen lack flame girl I'm 300 degrees
Learned it from Weezy, Mayah be unique
Shots in the ass like the bitch got a vaccine
Don't write her 4s or her 8s nor her 16s
Aim at yo head like a boy when he pissing
Game uninspired, I'm what u been missing
Spit more then patients that get dental hygiene
Put down black women, but they all want my genes
I'm 1 of 1, ain't nobody that's like me
My light could blind 'em all cuz my eyes high-beams
I want a crown and a town on the west side
I want a stack and some racks and the best ride
Don't want to rent nor to lease nor to test drive
So I work I hard, and I pray when I'm bedside

Inner City Dialogue
02:25
|

|
A lotta niggas try to stick it in
me 'fore they stick to bidness wit me
But a boss ain't having that
From the bottom, not the Drizzy one, Dino sun
My boys got drums like BattleCat
I'm a westside hitter real spitter I
don't need no damn cosign for my raps
The thriller in Manila real queen
post up with some pretty bee's in the trap
Drop stacks like Baby
Fuck you pay me
Excuse my French cuz I'm mixed with Jamaican
Imma be the best no ifs, ands, maybes
We ain't following routes that y'all taking, no faking, its amazing
Like Jason wit the Lyric
Grind bad brakes so I hope that they hear it
Pray that they fear it, but even if they didn't,
it's a process of me healing and I know I'll make a million
This is inner city dialogue, bare fridge no lights is on
Cracked streets, foggy smog, tell you what I'm rhyming for
Not for money not for cash
Not for strippers shakin' ass
We can make it I believe
Listen to the city breathe
Most viewpoints are the male punctuation
Most things belong to white population
Gringo world but I still couldn't hate 'em
Too much love in the home I was raised in
Raised in, raised in
Too much crime in the city I'm raised in
Raised in, raised in
Murda murda murda in the city I'm raised in

Come Here (Dreamin')
04:15
|

The way you speak
It makes me think
You're so unique
ADVERTISING
With your technique
Come here baby, yeah you
Say my name
Come here baby
Fly away
Nothing brings me pleasure like being with you
Do the things that lovers do
Feel the magic in the air
Listen to my lovers prayer
Come here baby, yeah you
Say my name
Come here baby
Fly away
I take my visions as they come to me
Every so often I dream of my king
He's so right mentally and sexually
A pleasureful thing, he do it so effortlessly
He love me for more than the way that I look
He love my cooking and that boy he love to read books
And when it come to niggas he ain't ever shook
Though he's gentle with me, he resembles a crook
Let's take a trip to the mother land
Cuz there got to be other lands
And meet our sisters and brothers, man
An average life we are better than
He gives me a hug, he kneels, then he weeps
My alarm goes off, I awake from my sleep
Will I see him again later in my day dreams?
Will this love ever be? Is it lost destiny?
Nothing brings me pleasure like being with you
Do the things that lovers do
Feel the magic in the air
Listen to my lovers prayer
Come here baby
Say my name
Come here baby
Fly away
Come here baby
Say my name
Come here baby
Fly away

Mayah's Jam

This gon be my jam
Know i keep it tight
Cutie messaged me like "what you on tonight?"
I'm chillin' like a villain, positive despite
Problems that's in my life
He said "let's hit the highway, bump some Dirty Sprite
I see you on your grind, but let me take you out tonight
Miss independent, yeah I know, but you are just so beautiful"
Heart of glass it's true
From all the pain I been through
It's something rare about you
So take a risk is what I'm 'bout to do
Told baby come get me 'round 8
Played cool, but hardly couldn't wait
Been a minute since I even had a date
I'm lookin' forward to the vibes we'll make
So baby let's set sail, set sail, set sail
To distant lands
So baby let's set sail, set sail, set sail
To distant lands
It's beginning to look a lot like it's lovin'
You got me blushin'
Like BIG this girl is crushin' ain't no bluffin' we
Sippin' our drinks, we laughin' puffin'
Dippin down the freeway like 3AM
Not just sexual respectful he's my best friend
Your words a cold drink on a hot summer day
A gift up in ya presence like Christmas day
Intellectual, your special baby take me away
Cuz nothin' can compare to the vibes we make
Can't describe this space
You're my type, that face, that
Conversations priceless got me hype always
Stimulate ya mind Craig, like that indo dro
But better cuz ya good for my soul, this I know
This purposeful connection
It ain't no second guessin'
Never question my affection
Cuz your heart is well protected
I got you love
This one's for you
And your beautiful point of view, lawd
The world could be up in flames
Might miss the shot in the game
It doesn't mean anything
You're all I want and I need
Hey you, yeah you
You make my world a better place
So picture perfect I could frame you...

Satalino vibe, got me rockin' to it
Anyone can dream, we can really do it
Say you with the shits, you never really prove it
Let go of ya mind...
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
(Say you'll say)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Turn my shit real loud, don't you be a hater
Life is just so high, like we burned an acre
Love the classic times, that Anita Baker
Let go of ya mind
(Say you'll say)
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Cmon cmon and just say you'll say
Say you'll say, say you'll say
What is love unless its pure?
Falling fast but heart secured
Truly the malignant cure
Never need be reassured

One Of Us
02:15
|

|
What if God was one of us?
Would He sing, would He rap, would He sell drugs?
Hand shake, or prefer hugs? Carry baggage or tote slugs?
Would He love less if He was one of us?
What if God was a little girl?
Warm smile in a cold world, rosy cheeks and a lotta curls
Rare and pretty like a pearl,
drawin' pics in her own world, little girl
What if God was a little boy? Dirty face with a lotta toys,
Pray pretend He would enjoy, Spider-Man or cowboy
Big dreams a lot of joy, little boy
What if God was a murderer? Cold blood straight torturer
Would we shun Him or nurture Him?
Tell me what's the determiner, if we're loving Him?
What if God was a poor man, got a stench that they can't stand
Underneath it healing hands, grabbing souls and soda cans, oh man
What if God was one of us? I feel He's in all of us
What if God was one of us? I feel He's in all of us, all of us
What if God was one of us? I know He's in all of us
What if God was one of us? I know He's in all of us, all of us
