Ay Hit, we gon' do some shit like this my nigga Yeah though I walk through the valley of infidels, suckers Who adhere to sucker religions Life's a bible We livin' in biblical times Uh, first chapter This chapter called "Men" Given knowledge by the psychotic the block was college We don't add it up then that shit'll leave us divided It's sorta like Ten Commandments I'm talkin' 'bout men and standards, I'm tryna reverse the damage You boys obsessed with cameras, the debt we was handed So many move like Judas look at the past, it's proven It's my duty to speak truth to power I be feelin' like it's my fault Around your enemies, then they call you before you hear about it Talk to you like it's still love, keepin' your vision clouded Tryin' to get cool with guys 'cause you want 'em to choose sides Campaignin' with the haters, dismissin' truth for lies Definition of a man, don't full on understand For your soul, the exec' let you hold an advance Don't be discouraged, just go with the plan Gotta have faith in God's grace over the land And I pray for the day when they lay down And caged make their way up out that maze Get their mind up out a daze Too many mamas layin' flowers at they graves Don't rap about death, it's power in what you say Second chapter, and you get what you give It's power in how you live, I sit and talk with the kids And tell 'em just how it is, go straight to avoid the bids Livin' fast can wait, stay down and work on your grades Speak gospel for the next generation You can have it all, just don't side with Satan I seen that take down most of the greatest Hotel suites, Hollywood stars hangin' The other side of what you think is fly Your jewelry could be cursed and so can your ride Let that soak in your mind, Suburbans and Beamers Shot up with Ninas, how to stop a young genius Spiritual like a deep cut from Shirley Caesar I wonder if it's Jesus when a baby reach up Sharpenin' up myself 'cause I know they need us My African skin gave me the passion to win (ooh, ooh) Prayin' this doesn't come to a tragic end (and I pray) Third chapter This chapter called "Women", y'all been the rib since the beginnin' A woman's intuition, is what a man is missin' To understand your wisdom is something I had to learn Somehow you the most unprotected on planet Earth Your smile lift me up and your eyes kiss my soul Your sweetness is honeycomb, such a lovely tone You hold the power to make a house a home Because of you, I wanna right my wrongs (love) Kiss your mother 'cause we only get one (one) A grandmother's words to her grandson Beautiful minds develop in time (yeah) Checks every month 'cause you held me for nine They might see an image of a woman who's flawed But I see a woman in the image of God Highest regards, I light a cigar To man, woman and children, my Bible is ours (yeah) Open it up, listen to it in anytime That Revelations' vibe, get you through it Ain't none of us perfect, I damn sure ain't Prayin' this doesn't come to a tragic end We just gon' hope for the best and do our best And be our best, no less, yeah Yo, I woke up this morning Had to pray to God and thank Him 'cause I made it this far I kept it me, I'ma stay me no matter what No matter who change up I'ma try to get 'em to see the right path 'Cause I think I'm on the right path
