Higher Level

[Maestro Fresh Wes]

Yeah, going out to all my peoples, you know what I'm saying

Now move to a higher level, I'm sprint

First I inhale, then I exhale Allah's name

You never see me pointing to the next male

Never seen me judge my cuz, I'd rthter show love

'Cause poverty's got a grudge and the grudge won't budge

But nigga's gotta do what a nigga's gotta do

What's nigga gotta do to make dough and watch the zeros grow

I'm working hard, I make a beat I make a rhyme

Trying to make a dime, black man change your state of mind

PEACE! to PE, BDP and X-Clan when I give a pound

It's never with my left hand

Styles are living long, you know my word is bond

'Cause my rhymes are cock strong

Like the fruit of Islam, word to God yo

Times is hard yo

I'm just a regular brother coming straight out of Scarborough

Fresh Wes'll never perpetrate and be a gun man

That shit'll be funny like Aaron Hall catching a suntan

I just be myself, maintain my health

Concetrate on my wealth, 'cause you know I go for delf

G-O-D's the only one who dictates

And before I plant seeds you know I got to get my shit straihgt

Concrete jungle's could trample

A little nigga without a father figure, or an example to follow

Young minds are getting swallowed by the devil

We got to help the youth, elevate to a higher level

CHORUS [Maestro Fresh Wes]

No shackles on my mind, no shackles on my mind, no shackles on

my mind

I ain't blind, I know the time

No shackles on my mind, no shackles on my mind, no shackles on

my mind

I ain't blind, I know the time

[Maestro Fresh Wes]

Check it

I made a record hitting hard like a wall

I say without togetherness we got nothing at all

Progess will stall, the blackman will fall

And if you don't believe me, check the Final Call

I'm getting bolder 'cause I'm getting older

Some say I told ya, I known he had a chip on his shoulder

Nah, I love my people like a passion

Give me the opportunity, I write about unity

The community will prosper, or should I say grow

When brothers and sisters know the right way to go

I make beats and I'm all about peace

Refuge is what I seek from anxiety and grief

My mind stays focused, my vision stays clear

I concentrate on my career, successs is near when I say my

prayers

I take a deep breath, I'm tired of being oppressed

I always try my best, Fresh Wes won't stress

I'm sharper than a shank, rhyme's heavy like a tank

I want to put my money in a blackman's bank

Point blank, I even met Queen Elizabeth

(You didn't bow did you Maestro?)

Money don't be ridiculous

That's some silly shit, you know she ain't significant

I only got to bow to Allah the magnificant

Through bass and treble, I never back peddle

Side step the devil and move to a higher level
