VERSE I:
Blacker than a cat in your path
Rapture n wrath
Classic opposites
Hindering accomplishment
Feel the slap the axe
It retracts from your past
Another painstraking
brain quaking
inducin noxiousness on top of this
you're officers but none of your are coppin' this
Anatomy command
Out of your hands
Doubtin' your soul
Doubtin' the man you made known
Layin' low
Faces nay to show
Nay a way to know
Caliber of your excalibur thus your power burns
Hours turn
Cowards learn to live
Selfish learn to give
Wealthy help the kids
Selfless we can live
Under this umbrella of togetherness
Where we never miss
Leave a child behind
Pay a corporation mind
This is an important time
Where we corkin' lines onto pads
Cuz this world that we have
Won't perpetuate
If we hate
And discriminate
never too late...
VERSE II:
Listen to your psyche
Then you'll get it right
Temptations
Damnation
Sayin' all the right things
Always with a knife sealed
In a cloak of silk
Hopin' that you'll turn your back
Never learnin' that
They will yearn to stab
You at opportunities knock
Fluid with clot
Even us as humans are not
Superior to reason
Logic keeps us breathin'
Through the change of seasons
This how we be repayin'
Is what I'm sayin'
So now I weigh in
On how the day is
And when the day ends
I pray then
I lay in my bed and rest
Just another test
That I can attest
Has created me the way I need to be
For whatevers next
CHORUS
It's times like these that'll make you say
Lord if you see me please come my way
