KRS-ONE AND THE TEMPLE OF HIPHOP - Trust lyrics

rate me

[KRS-One]

C'mon, gather round now, gather round now, look now

How many times did you pre-meditate

what you thought was your fate, cause you couldn't just wait

You had to have it the way that you thought in your mind

But in the end, everything came in time

But before the time, you was losin your mind

You was racin and rushin and fallin behind

But let me tell you bout God and the way that She works

I mean the way that He works, I mean the way that We work

You gotta trust in your Lord, everything is in accord

Don't rush or fuss, you gonna get yours

Close your eyes, your heart, your ears, your mind

to the ways and thoughts of mankind

And seek ye first the Kingdom of God

And things won't seem so hard

You gotta trust your Lord, uhh, uhh.. tell 'em bout

[Chorus]

Trust and obey, trust when afraid

Trust when you paid, trust when betrayed

Trust when you fear, trust when you unclear

Trust when you here, trust when you near

Trust when you down, trust when you found

Trust when you clown, trust

C'mon, let's do it again, uh, uh

Let's raise it up, c'mon, look

[KRS-One]

After you live and you learn then you see

You will learn how to trust in your G-O-D

You will be so free, you won't see no me

You will only see the will of the almighty

You sick of what? Well ya will, give it up

Stop thinkin and begin to, live it up

Everytime you think it's one way it's not

Everytime you wanna start you really stop

Trust in the inner the outer is for the sinners

In fact this whole rap is for beginners

Those that have talked and walked upon the path

Know that they get what they want before they act

So why rush, if your respect is due

Whatever you DON'T have is protectin you

Here's what you DO have that be bringin the drama

Ask and it shall be given, with a comma

[Chorus]

[singers]

You trust in her, trust in him, trust in them, and then

Trust in men, trust in sin, trust in friends

You trust in her, trust in him, trust in them, and then

Trust in men, trust in sin, trust in friends

[KRS-One]

Uh uh, soundin good, soundin good, look, look

So when will you be it, when will you see it

That thoughts and things they manifest when you decree it

But God be lookin out for you

Puttin a stop to what you're about to do

In your life, and in your circumstances

Everytime you speak you be takin chances

Talkin bout things that you really don't have to have

So when you get 'em, your life turns sad

Your life turns bad, now why would your God be allowin that?

Trust in God, that's where the crown is at

It's not in what you get, it's what happens after that

So if you think your life is shrinkin

It may be cause you keep thinkin

Not that intellect is wrong

It's just the beginning, it might be time to move on

[Chorus]
