lost with no parents..
trying to fit in..
searching for earth's meanings..
resulting inasmuch styles as answers to life's questions..
Story behind the song
http://www.orphanfam.com
just had to rhyme to don's track (3 mile productions, signify!)..
the shit was all new and arabic sounding..
and we thought of getting something similar to eric b. & rakim's pump up the volume/remix pajama jammy jam with that bitch's nasty vocals..
jihad means holy war, and that automically comes with it's own concepts coming from nu jeru, and all the demonic sins against the culture..
Lyrics
jihad
we be the knights of Jerusalem, can’t win for loosin’ ‘em
nine steps ahead, instead I step back, still confusin’ ‘em
I’m cruisin’ in control of my soul, lord, and master
I selfishly try to get what I’m after
originality, flattery won’t get you nowhere
don’t even go there- you can’t come close to this flow here
it’s so rare, so stay there, not a-ware, so be-ware
I see-where my path is headed, I read it, it’s embedded
in the scriptures, the pictures in my brain sustain visions
incisions be precise, we nice, more than suffice
so please take my advice, think twice or get deaded
beheaded with my cordless, I’m sure it’s what you dreaded
I said it’s a holy war from the holy ground
if you didn’t know me then, you best to know me now
big brother al, we hold down the reconstruction
o.f. foundation, rocka, full circle production
from sunrise to sunset, some get marauded
I fight fire with water that’s why some get slaughtered
chorus:
what are you gonna do
when jihad comes for you?
you- run get your crew, crew
we’ll run right thru, thru
what you wanna do?
I prophesigh against Babylon and travel on the narrow
see shay I love to love, I pierce your heart like an arrow
in this battle for your soul, the goal is control
enemy got you thinking two half-steps is a whole
so we stole your mic like a thief in the night- right?
but even in the darkness there’s still a ray of light
so we fight for the right, and not the wrong, word is bond
life is the test, you must study long
stand strong cuz I belong with that full technique
rebuke the wicked with these tongues I speak
from the peaks of mount zion to streets of new jeru
liars still lie, but the truth is always true
and who do you believe? the lyrically naïve?
blaspheme in new jeru you never leave
as I breathe deep, and try not to fall asleep
cuz the job of the shepherd is to protect the sheep
as I breathe deep, and try not to fall asleep
cuz the job of the shepherd is to protect the sheep
chorus
four corners of the square, strategic urban warfare
the hype got you distracted, I’m warning you- beware
mcs manipulated, the rest of us out-dated
or isolated the queens forever player-hated
this is a plasticated form of what we created
getting props for the way that we rock with pride in our heart
let’s take it back to the way that it starts
the dj got you boppin’, the writers cold rockin’
the dancers catching wreck, but yo! nobody’s checkin’
for the the real reason why hip hop is so fly
it’s all about the u.n.i.t.y.
all things go 360 and now it’s comin’ ‘round
don’t forget to look back as you search for higher ground
fat caps, fat beats, dope rhymes, dope throwdowns
these are the jewels decorating your crown
knowledge of self once lost is now found
knowledge of self once lost is now found
these are the jewels decorating your crown
chorus
