Star Of The Gang |
Everything is alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
Feel it comin' from all sides |
Heavy is the crown, but I’m passionate |
And I know I’ll be just fine |
Understand the world, we’re the same |
I’ll be alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
Rain showers, brainpower |
Thunder sparks can dark and light, live in the same hour |
Live from the main tower |
From the same flower as H. Rap |
Grew up on concrete where we couldn’t escape black |
Listen to MCs who made me take thy tape back |
Rewind, black stars align |
Help m define exactly who I am |
Know the voice of the lamb |
Recognize the shepherd |
Black Panther and leather |
Won’t jeopardize the leopard |
From where my strength come is the same place I bled hurt |
Crossin' the 7 is like crossin' a desert |
Get ate like dessert 'cause ain’t nothin' sweet |
You might get a red shirt |
I’m so fresh, man, I should be redshirt |
Though I’m far from a expert |
Master of style 'til my head hurt |
My stepfather was a plumber |
So I understand pressure |
Bustin' the pipes and hustlin' nights |
Scuffles and fights, my cousin’s advice |
Go harder, think smarter, be a model for the part of society that desires free |
Freedom ain’t to barter |
Everything is alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
Feel it comin' from all sides |
Heavy is the crown, but I’m passionate |
And I know I’ll be just fine |
Understand the world, we’re the same |
I’ll be alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
A time it’ll go our way |
Yes, this is the time when we know our way |
My mama said, «Baby, you should know y’all way» |
Footprints of the prophet on my soul, I’ll shade |
Halfway across the bridge, I saw a couple of kids |
Who yell, «Black lives,» but ain’t know where Blacks live |
It’s okay, if you for it, you ain’t against |
You and your white pickets can help paint the fence |
This is knowledge of self-defense |
You felt the rinse of the brainwash |
I hold weight like suspense |
Thrillers, this is thriller night |
Gods and monsters, odds to conquer |
Squads with contra, bars and mantras |
With my palms up, I ponder |
Am I a son of Ghana or the one that squanders? |
I’m glad I seen Bianca, she reminded me |
No matter how far I go, to keep findin' me |
I know that there’s work on this earth that’s assigned to me |
I know there’s a race between, between time and me |
I’m locked in, find the key, my mind is free |
I took time with me, it took time to see that— |
Everything is alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
Feel it comin' from all sides |
Heavy is the crown, but I’m passionate |
And I know I’ll be just fine |
Understand the world, we’re the same |
I’ll be alright |
I’ve been through a lot, but I’m fortunate |
