EVERLAST - Graves To Dig lyrics

rate me

It goes one for the prophet<br>Two for islam, three for the khutbah from the imam<br>Four for the mother that birthed my frame<br>Five for the father 'cause it's heart began<br>Been 'round the world suns all the same<br>Sometime's when I'm asleep I still call your name<br>Back when I was young I used to dream of fame<br>Now they all point their fingers sayin' who's to blame<br>Mother's put their girls in some pig tail curls<br>Father's teach their sons how to shoot their guns<br>They say, boy, don't ever ? ? ? , control your emotions<br>Take it like a man and make your stand<br>They say sex and violence go hand in hand<br>Every man blessed they gotta be tempted<br>Span through the depths of space and time<br>Stand, three eyes blind on the firin' line<br>Word to my man divine, come too far<br>Singin' la illaha illilah (there is no God but God)<br>(? ? ? )<br>I was hopin' that the lord got some mercy to spare<br>It goes one for the ummah, two for the dean<br>Three for the angels, four for the allahmin<br>Somewhere in between, totally obscene<br>Perfectly clean, I've got a babylon feeling<br>Wombs need healin', truth need revealin'<br>Hands need washin' from all the dirty dealin'<br>Floor to the ceilin', from the stage to the door<br>Kings and the queens and the slaves and their whores<br>For every lost cause where the martyr's are found<br>That funky little sound that make you wanna get down<br>Somebody told me once that love makes the world go 'round<br>And kids they carry pistols out on the playground<br>That profound, gone too far, prayin' on my life to the burnt out star<br>Put your lights on, put down your crosses<br>It's time to tally up your wins and your losses<br>It goes one for scott larock and two for pac and b.i.g<br>Three for all the mothers who got graves to dig x3
