Talib Kweli - Lord of the Light lyrics

rate me

The night is dark and it’s full of terrorist

When you hunt nigga, where your courage?

I was build with an older guy

He said : “You act like you know it all”

All brick want true God, how you know if you lie, if you ain’t got a few scars

Just count a new power, fucking these lows

And respect for the poor, people fighting and balls

When I ball with my soul, put away and let me care

Get it, let’s keep it play carrel

With the blood in your face

So just take this and just kill fathers

And they wait mothers since they make lovers

After putting for a great other

Yeah there’s dirty on the ground, heavenly balling

Never balls for the ground

So it’s all for the goal, niggas pinches go around

You can smell it down before this ever come around

So just comin’ back after the battle still gotta get to fear the unknown

Then I gotta explain why they’ve been gone

Took it now for his family and just get gone

Yeah,

Shooters will get about a life

So that’s what we fight for I feed ‘em and use to battle for a loud

Sticking out of top, we never fight this

It’s what I want for the day it’s the violence on the night

Respect and fear and safe til they get confuse

With the vision til they staring in the flame

And it’s give me fraud, when you still lose

Cuz she ain’t gonna get the same, when you cheer out your name

And they praying on your weakness

Cuz they playin for keepers

And they slaying all your leaders

Now your people face disease and famine

And fuck the king cuz we famished

That's why the brothers that I roll with don't be wavin’ no banners

Warriors for the cuz and we raisin' a family

And when it's time to exact revenge, have a son come back from the dead

To protect the other down and just said to you

Living this gualo while the rich people get around

I’m seeing, enjoy their seven

Almost like they forgot the seven loud
