Peace Killah
Priest Peace, wassup man?
Chillin baby
I'm with you
Yo.. I wanna know what's goin on
Ever since that
Basic Instruction,
Before Leavin
Earth I wanna know what you gonna do for us right now
It's been a while baby, we waitin!
I've just been chillin, been chillin
I been in the lab writin and stuff y'know?
I just been on my, y'know, knowhat
I'msayin on some
Guns, shootouts and crack sales
Black males who pack jails, trapped in hell
No peace, cold streets, surrounded by po-lice this whole week, buildings with no heats
No lights, the gas pipes the snow leaks
Dog fights and lowlife throw dice the whole night
Thieves, creepin in the midnight evenings, saw through the misty regions
Go to your house, take a vial for the demons
Moon in, the lunar eclipse
Prophets stand in the midst of the seven candlesticks
I can't take it, beauty that was once sacred is now gettin facelifts, fake tits, and fake lips
Cold embraces
Memory erases, from the slaveships
My princess,
I used to spot her from a distance
Holdin my infant, burnin incense
The moment intent, for her to step into my wife tents
Now we step in precincts, for your ebony prince
The small of frankencense; once treated like a pharoah
With royal apparel, annointed with myrrh and aloe
We used to wallow, amongst the mallows
We had herd sheep and cattle, now we battle
Used to pass over
Brooks of
Qe'ron Towers of
Lebanon, the pool of
Gechron We used to sing songs, upon
Mount Hebron
How is gold turned to bronze, and shhh....
How is gold turned to bronze
We was the wisest and the richest, now we turn to snitches
Women turn to *****es, in the time of harvest
We was the smarteest, worshipped
Wisdom like the
Goddess Now we act retarded, forsook the
Wisdom of the
Fathers We use to have a thousand flagons of wine
In Palestine there would drink
Ballentine
And raise up in the violent mind
We used to have a hundred measures of oil, eighty measures of wheat and barley, we live
Godly Listening to
Bob Marley, before the devils robbed me
Chasin us through the
African safaris
From Then
Till Now What goes up must come down
What goes down comes back around again
Where it all began, began, began, began
From Then
Till Now,
From Then
Till Now,
From Then
Till Now (repeat 2X)
Singin holy anthems, lampin with all my handsome grandsons, hair long as
Sampson Inside my gold mansion, they used to wear purple
Pampers But now we
Black Panthers, some are actors and dancers
It's funny how the dollar bill have my seeds holler for meals
Mother swallow a pill, roads seem hollow but still grab a bottle to heal, it's like a noose of seventh seal over
Brownsville
What's the difference between the ghetto and death row?
I'm trapped up with cleptos, the tec blow
I'm left in seft low, where the cries echo and echo and echo and echo and echoes
From the Crystal
City, near
Getti Children used to grow on lillies, now they roll up
Phillies But the pyramids of
Cheops, is my **** spot
Sometimes
I eavesdrop in the books of
Enoch We went from studying epistles of
Paul beneath a waterfall, rubbin crystal balls
But now we spray paint initials on the wall
On the wall... spray paint initials on the wall
From Then
Till Now What goes up must come down
What goes down comes back around again
Where it all began, began, began, began
From Then
Till Now,
From Then
Till Now,
From Then
Till Now (repeat 3X)
