Blackalicious - If I May lyrics

rate me

Come along and reap

I need my song

We're climbin' over

Beneath the sea

March on

Time is almost gone

It's all in me

No maybe

Here we go again

Slip into my conscience, come along an take in

A story bout a battle, in this corner, Satan

Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink

And suddenly disasters and catastrophe

And acting unrationally

Reacting savagely

To passionately

Bask in everlasting like escapes from just what its creating

Jeopardizin' love

Look at all the people that you took advantage of

See your hypnotized

Rom be gone, take another cup

In consequences lurk

While the reaper got your shirt size

Nigga wack up

Times overdue for the birth of a power that the universe grew from

You search for the answers outside

Refocus causin' time and time again, backslide

You've noticed times before the presence of that "I"

But never did submit to it and let it apply

Whatever be his will in this present life time

Or essence like mine

Know the blessings you might find

If you let your higher power inside

Emerge and apply to every single thing in your balance

You will truly find

Who you really are

Die and become reborn

When God is present in your life than you can come reap on

And ain't a storm that you can't weather

You got a purpose you was born to create

Destiny is waitin' for you

Arms open, take with ya

Knowledge bestowed by the great giver

Lakes, rivers

Mountains and steams

Now reality's the dream wraitha

No more searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha

It had to hit ya through the struggle and the turmoil

Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above soil

And let the sun shine freely down

At times it looked like it wouldn't

But the plant came to flourish

Now it's standin' on solid ground

Sun rises like water up in my eyes

I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide

Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be

The sun rises like water up in my eyes

I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide

Tryna to keep my head up

Above the ed if I could be

Least

If I may
