The Offering |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| What do you have to offer? |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| Lay it at the altar |
| Uh, I was born an elder in a young world, thus the terror |
| Seasoned ancestor return, Karmic trial and error |
| The debt collector, that birth mark in the mirror |
| Find a record, climb giant steps under the chandelier |
| laments for real, your golden seal |
| Heal broken hearts, carried like |
| Somebody heard Naima whisper up in 'Trane's ear |
| Life and death lovers hidden trained seers |
| Know your weapon when the rain clears |
| Choose this body 'cause the spectrum of the pleasure and the pain fears |
| That bigger set for this domain to fear |
| Politics, passionate, poetic, Farrakhan, Shakespeare |
| Pen the ruckus, ain’t no games here |
| Young Marie used to sing |
| When Mama say she can’t hear |
| She tuned out when you figure it’s time, reclaim still |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| What do you have to offer? |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| Lay it at the altar |
| National treasure, stable hand fan the flame better |
| Into the set-up, neater, bigger, love you to the letter |
| Supreme measures, space and time between eras |
| Rare phenomenon, prophecy sellers, they ain’t tell us |
| Warning is foreign to the naked eye |
| Seven points activate at the base of spines, feed the time |
| Twenty-two cards waitin' to confide |
| Mine are savage, confuse twerk for Jamaican whine |
| Lord, 'member the night the fortune teller died |
| Mama heard him callin' over mortals, our daughters from the other side |
| Force of the whisper turned the loud crowd |
| Made the baby laugh in his bubble bath on a cloud nine |
| lives hold the song close |
| Used to hide my palms behind sacred scripts and long chords |
| Here and now, |
| Offer it all as you standin' at the crossroad, come on |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| What do you have to offer? |
| Is you gon' get it right this time? |
| Is you gon' get it right? |
| So you gon' get it right this time |
| Lay it at the altar |
