MALIK YUSEF

MALIK YUSEF - Promised Land lyrics

rate me

Now whatcha finna hear is an update

On what we been on as of late

See I was reading a late notice on the date that I wrote this, you hear

Time flies in the leer

And you wonder where the day went

See I'm a leader in my field, but I'm behind on my truck payments

So this is something that could help you raise your head like hello

See this is not brown red or yellow

Not a white or black poem

This is a prayer to a guardian angel

To protect our fathers mothers sisters brothers sons and daughters

Until we bring our troops back home

Cause it feel like we all in the same platoon

And we'll all be extinct soon

If we continue to suffer from other people's crimes

I think we well overdo for change this time

And I know they don't wanna see me cooped up in a benz

They'd rather see me cooped up these pens

Therefore I release the ink that's cooped up in these pens

And let my art-ticulate

People are so slow to love, or so quick to hate

Now some things finna change because we say so

Let's stop looking at how bad things are, and focus on how well they may go

And this is a declaration

That we'll be fair again

Especially to those Americans, who were Americans, before there were Americans

This is to a small young family, that's booming out of space

There's room in outer space

This is to my people

The human race

I need you to

Take us to the promise land

Don't just make us promises

It's too late to let go of our hand

They say we need a prophet that can touch on the topics and make it hot as the tropics, well you got it (you got it)

Take us to the promise land

Don't just make us promises

It's too late to let go of our hand

Everybody saying please don't let go

I hear it over and over and over like a echo

I see it in my dreams, I feel the effect though

People drowning in debt

Somebody to the rescue

Everybody that saying we need something special

Nah man, we need something extra terrestrial

Outta this world, speak for us be the vessel

Outta the box, reach for it through the threshold (Uh)

Through all of the stress though

What's best of all, people screaming like a festival

Just applaud, this moment is special ya'll

I need you to

And I need you to

And I need you to

I need you to

I need you to
