| Tell me who do you turn to
|
| When you’ve lost your direction
|
| Made a mind into weapon
|
| Build the house on the stone
|
| All the home are designed
|
| Lemon seeds in the soil
|
| Blood on the leaves
|
| I see blood in the sink
|
| And them bluff on the news
|
| Migrant workers scared of migrant workers
|
| Oh, lord, what have we come to
|
| Tell me who do you see?
|
| Looking at the man in the mirror when it’s crunch time
|
| And this sick life hit a brother with a punchline
|
| And you can’t quite see the picture
|
| Can you stand and deliver?
|
| Feeling you’ve been sold down the river
|
| Feel it in you soul and you shiver, and the shit cuts deep
|
| Digging in your bones in the winter
|
| Written in these poems, you consider
|
| Can we show who we be? |
| (Show who we be)
|
| When the chips down, gotta stand up
|
| When it’s only round one and you’re bleeding
|
| Weight of a ton and you’re breathing
|
| All you gotta do is cry freedom
|
| Boy you got that
|
| Try screaming from the pits of your being, I need 'em
|
| Back in my cage, rattling that which you chase
|
| 'Til you stand in this place
|
| Tell me who do you turn to
|
| When you’ve lost your direction
|
| Made a mind into weapon
|
| Build the house on the stone
|
| All the home are designed
|
| Lemon seeds in the soil
|
| Blood on the leaves
|
| I see blood in the sink
|
| And them bluff on the news
|
| Migrant workers scared of migrant workers
|
| Oh, lord, what have we come to
|
| Yeah, I spent a lot of time running
|
| Front line, I was always top gunning (Top gun)
|
| Top but I spent a lot of time fronting
|
| Be invisible, can’t nobody touch him
|
| Ain’t nobody fucking with the dog, that’s a problem
|
| Ain’t nobody figure there’s a problem (That's a problem)
|
| Everybody always want a little something
|
| Might as well put my body in a ()
|
| I been trying to understand my role
|
| What’s the bigger picture for my soul? |
| (What's your purpose?)
|
| Lately I been thinking I could go (Go and jump then)
|
| But then I start to think about my folks
|
| Ain’t everybody given situations with a gift (Yeah)
|
| Alleviate pain with your vision and the scripts
|
| Set aside yourself for a minute, get a grip
|
| Ain’t anybody ever gave a fuck about a bitch
|
| Tell me who do you turn to
|
| When you’ve lost your direction
|
| Made a mind into weapon
|
| Build the house on the stone
|
| All the home are designed
|
| Lemon seeds in the soil
|
| Blood on the leaves
|
| I see blood in the sink
|
| And them bluff on the news
|
| Migrant workers scared of migrant workers
|
| Oh, lord, what have we come to
|
| I know denial is bad for my health
|
| Embrace the chaos and learn it yourself
|
| I can’t expire and sit on the shelf
|
| I have a goal and a story to tell
|
| Hope they don’t hate it, no fear in my tone
|
| All of you see me when I’m in my zone
|
| You are my people but I stand alone
|
| I must be first on me |
