Lyrics The Spark - DJ Criminal, Illogic

The Spark

Every move I make he watch
Cus gon' slit his wrist if he can’t tell what time it is
Now when I find a break I’m dancing so unique
They know my words are electric the way they boogaloo across the beat
In these streets I run these emcees
Now crown the Jam Master Jay and they say, «Who's house is this?»
I reply, «Me and the brethren»
So Mary Mary, don’t you weep but Mary Mary, why you buggin'?
Thuggin' get you buried where I’m from
It’s scary crazy situations vary on the daily where I’m from
So I don’t rap, I speak in collages
And try to make every lesson point in the direction of where God is
Polish off the faith, embrace the path of the light
Resting in the fact I’m prepared for the fight
Might not be the flame, but I’m the spark that ignites
The wind beneath the wings of eagles on a purposeful flight, it’s like
Now life is simple, but comes with a complex
Got you busy juggling your struggle with progress
Focused on the rubble and nonsense
Looking to perfect the gathering of material objects
Limiting the listening to leaders lacking depth
Rejecting riveting performances from truth you can’t accept
I’ve been hoping open-mindedness becomes the norm and a culture of excellence
will begin to take form
We’re human beings being human inhumane
To everyone they come across, there’s so much we can gain
No one’s gonna force you to, you must decide to change
Happiness abounds but you can’t escape some pain
‘cause without pressure diamonds wouldn’t be and neither would we
Sometimes you gotta hit your knees
I may not be the flame, but I’m the spark that ignites
The wind beneath the wings of eagles on a purposeful flight, it’s like
