Killah Priest - The God Within lyrics

rate me

When I write I take the day

Pull it thru night, make the Earth explode

Than bring it back as globe

There's light, scrolls unfold, rivers reverse

I picture the verse, first

When it's complete, it's' from concrete

And the streets are deeper than universe

But still around me, gunshots, train stops

And one cop, who hates my guts

So many pages that I've written my fingers developed paper cuts

Number stores, the stray dogs who chase the bus

Tickets in hands of old women who pray for luck

But one eye will finesse my craft

Usually you can see a graft

Hovering the unknown, the tones

Light enters my bedroom, my pupils were red

When I looked up from my pad

Save the Lost Tribe from apartheids

That's you and I

More than the nation that the brothers hold up on that sign on that cardboard

This is what I rep God for

To all y'all next with a sharp sword

Bright words from the dark Lord

Now let's start war

You can see my notebook is my confession booths

Since my youth, all my corrections, fire loops

My connections with the truth

My life, my stories

Holy water, OG talk of Walter, the author

Rise in glory, from being nailed to the pages, ageless

I'm immortal to rap, how you atheist from facts?

I'm living proof, feel my wombs thru the booth

Relax, resurrections, the sun behind the moon from the roof

I gave y'all parables, incomparable, unimaginable

Hannibal upon an animal, the Mazateen, the Manateniam

Millennium, equilibrium, it's equal to lithium

Ether, either I'm eager to show you I'm deeper than any of them

When my spirit hand reach for the pen

It's God's body, I'm God soul, finding the God that's within
