No matter where I am
Bless me with all your light,
I'm on a train brain vexed connect and then I feel blessed
Whether day or night I'm on the street midtown New York City
Let me stop praise your name I need room to breath
I got to feel your peace; I want to feel your ease
I?m screaming' down on my knees, cause my insides bleed
Witnessed all the vampires
One feat inspire
(2x)Close mine eyes and take a ride inside
Feel the breeze blow by, yo I'm getting' you high
Bob Nesta said it best everything will be all right
Introspect and connect the sect's and let this music make you fly
Jerusalem you take me high make me fly like an arrow pon? the sky eye, eye, eye, eye, eye
Said I?ve been ripped into lyrics, I?ve been ripped into words
Explained like physics leaving your vision blurred
Helping the unrighteous men there is no need to worry
Crush the wicked, in away with all his fists of fury
I?m studying rhymes all day
And everyday that's what I say
I come with consciousness as my sword I slay
All of them crazy murderers are bound to be prey
Knock, knock, suckin? evil man with no delay
I'm droppin? bombs on your moms
Yeah and to your dismay
Up in every single way and in each and every day
I sit back relax and listen to the music play
With headphones on my head a yes I bump and I sway
And I've been rhyming through your house, yes I've been rhyming through your room
Explained like physics leavin? your conscious doomed
Kaboom in the morning and the afternoon
Wright rhymes and I shine right tearing at the moon
I listened' to the wind whistle in a channel of sound
My ear like a vacuum begin to boom, glisten
Like the sun heats a drum
Cursing all of them doomed, rising' up from the ground growing full like the moon
Said I'm planted like a seed yes sir
Them get up and get up and grow, and I'm firm like a tree
And I know that?s what I know,
Oh, some of their colors wonderful like it was a rainbow
Let me tell you one time if you didn't know
(2x)Close mine eyes and take a ride inside
Feel the breeze blow by yo, I'm getting' you high
Bob Nesta said it best everything will be all right
Introspect and connect the sect's and let this music make you fly
Jerusalem you take me high make me fly like an arrow pon? the sky eye, eye, eye, eye, eye
Moonlight enlighten my way at twilight
From the heights of my roof I bid your help then poof
Looking out to the night
And ask for help to get up and get up right get up
See these versus I praise is like a double edged sword
With the glory of the lord, you could never ignore
Reaching up pon? the skies settled down pon? the floor
My hands is clean and my hearts is pure
Being dribbled out of ruddad open up the door
Allow yahoos in rattled floor
Boards and things from different shores
And I?ve received chopped down Germanys cause my insides bleed for moregive
A few words to the crack fiends like we know all means
I?m desperate like it?s you or it?s the enemy eventually I?m singing, here hope is real
Hashem is unity only one reality
Hurtin? to get this brain dent and page vent
Punch your vain, sent your sanity right out the window
When I rap the wind blows
Ancient melodies burn slow bringing from Egypt to the age of info
Age of slaves to beige and infos burnin? rage chuckin? flows out the window
Shatter like bladder shatter the matters oom batter boom batter
Torn n? tatter getting? spit and spatter turinin pitter patter
I?m the baddest mother gotcha trippin? like the mad hatter
Forget the hatter never had it matted
Skippin? and rippin? and flippin? and drippin and what.
Sit up your run, run, running but you could tie
And none of them miserable debts, could never run from inside
If you tried to keep it down cause you seen a joy
All them know is them frown so you call a man a boy
Oh ya, now toy can?t you see now open up your eyes
Every politician is a human in disguise
Them said that my peaceful ways is wrong, and it won?t come my way
Hopin? to set up some time at work so now there?s no time to play
(2x)Close mine eyes and take a ride inside
Feel the breeze blow by yo, I'm getting' you high
Bob Nesta said it best everything will be all right
Introspect and connect the sect's and let this music make you fly
Jerusalem you take me high make me fly like an arrow pon? the sky eye, eye, eye, eye, eye
(2x)Close mine eyes and take a ride inside
Feel the breeze blow by yo, I'm getting' you high
Bob Nesta said it best everything will be all right
Introspect and connect the sect's and let this music make you fly
Jerusalem you take me high make me fly like an arrow pon? the sky eye, eye, eye, eye, eye
