| [00:46.88] |
When we wash all our pain away |
| [00:51.23] |
We say, "Oh, my Lord" |
| [00:56.56] |
When we can't make it through the day |
| [01:01.00] |
We pray, oh, my Lord |
| [01:05.98] |
It's a test coming to my faith |
| [01:10.91] |
We pray, oh, my Lord, mmh |
| [01:16.11] |
Will my people ever be safe? |
| [01:20.27] |
In the land that takes us and breaks us, I can't be sure |
| [01:26.15] |
Walking with the Lord, I see footprints |
| [01:29.12] |
My mama always told me use my good sense |
| [01:31.38] |
Common always looking for the good sense |
| [01:33.82] |
Since we all got good in our essence |
| [01:36.24] |
In the hood sense, we all good anyway |
| [01:38.98] |
That's why you always hear another dollar, 'nother day |
| [01:41.39] |
I see the day as a new beginning |
| [01:43.92] |
Movement of the people, movement of the women |
| [01:46.29] |
To get the Earth spinning in the right direct |
| [01:48.80] |
This movie of life, sometimes might project |
| [01:51.48] |
Act, scenes that don't seem serene |
| [01:53.71] |
I like palo santo, put on Love Supreme |
| [01:56.14] |
And get into the being of the great I am |
| [01:58.42] |
That's when I get to seeing just how great I am |
| [02:01.02] |
Many many times from mistakes, I ran |
| [02:03.39] |
But I'm just a cake, let me bake, goddamn |
| [02:05.94] |
I pray I don't forsake my man |
| [02:08.35] |
And whenever I fall, on faith, I land |
| [02:10.87] |
Imperfections, resurrections |
| [02:13.71] |
In the mirror staring at God's reflection |
| [02:16.03] |
Reflecting on my aggressions |
| [02:18.50] |
On my regressions, on my obsessions |
| [02:20.96] |
There's a lesson in not feeling less |
| [02:23.21] |
And in seeing life itself as a blessing |
| [02:25.30] |
When we wash all our pain away |
| [02:29.11] |
We say, "Oh, my Lord" |
| [02:35.09] |
When we can't make it through the day |
| [02:38.94] |
We pray, oh, my Lord |
| [02:44.05] |
It's a test coming to my faith |
| [02:48.51] |
We pray, oh, my Lord, mmh |
| [02:53.99] |
Will my people ever be safe? |
| [02:58.18] |
In the land that takes us and breaks us, I can't be sure |
| [03:03.32] |
Yeah |
| [03:04.69] |
The jubilee of a newer me |
| [03:06.76] |
Giving my enemies something new to see |
| [03:09.18] |
My community, they be fueling me |
| [03:11.66] |
In the struggle of us, there's a unity |
| [03:14.18] |
The moral universe stay schooling me |
| [03:16.61] |
Will the king of kings really rule in me? |
| [03:19.05] |
I'm an instrument, stay in tune with me |
| [03:21.42] |
This orchestrated by Kareem, Samora, Boom, and me |
| [03:24.04] |
If agape had a Cupid, she'd be shooting me |
| [03:26.40] |
This rap here is fear's eulogy |
| [03:28.94] |
Escape rooms with glasses of wine |
| [03:31.51] |
Just another crutch for my brokeness |
| [03:33.72] |
A term that I got for my therapist |
| [03:36.12] |
As a black man, I feel I should be sharin' this |
| [03:38.67] |
In the hood they say we crazy and we derelicts |
| [03:41.10] |
But we needed for our kids and our marriages |
| [03:43.46] |
The old folks say we don't do that |
| [03:45.93] |
But taking care of self is the new black |
| [03:48.52] |
Unconventional ways, unconditional ways |
| [03:51.06] |
Mediation, mindfulness, it's just given to praise |
| [03:53.70] |
I'm in a phase, all I see is victory |
| [03:56.06] |
You on that wave, then come and get with me |
| [03:58.64] |
I only want what's meant for me |
| [04:00.94] |
And say the things that's sent to me |
| [04:03.50] |
In penitentiaries, I met the most enlightened |
| [04:05.90] |
Finding the losses, Heaven's excitement |
| [04:08.61] |
I write with a force of a kid that wanted to |
| [04:10.93] |
Be in The Source, but that changed, of course |
| [04:13.42] |
I maintained the sauce and became a boss |
| [04:15.53] |
I apologize if I came across |
| [04:18.01] |
As judgmental, or self-righteous |
| [04:20.58] |
'Cause in you, I see his likeness |
| [04:22.87] |
When we wash all our pain away |
| [04:26.78] |
We say, "Oh, my Lord" |
| [04:31.20] |
When we can't make it through the day |
| [04:36.55] |
We pray, oh, my Lord |
| [04:42.41] |
It's a test coming to my faith |
| [04:46.27] |
We pray, oh, my Lord, mmh |
| [04:51.66] |
Will my people ever be safe? |
| [04:55.83] |
In the land that takes us and breaks us, I can't be sure |
| [05:01.46] |
