Guru

Guru (Devanagari गुरु) is a Sanskrit term for "teacher" or "master", especially in Indian religions. The Hindu guru-shishya tradition is the oral tradition or religious doctrine transmitted from teacher to student. In the United States, the meaning of "guru" has been used to cover anyone who acquires followers, especially by exploiting their naiveté, due to the inflationary use of the term in new religious movements. more »

 * assistance requested on the French rap at the end 
 [Guru] 
 Mmm is this really the end or is it a new beginning? 
 A new reality.. 
 Chorus: Guru + Baybe (repeat 2X) 
 So many misconceptions (don't be misled) 
 So many evil deceptions (oh I am) 
 I've come to give direction 
 For I am the lifesaver (the life) 
 [Guru] 
 Scooby doo wah scooby doo wee 
 Like a jazz player I improvise wisely 
 Free with the style, I flow like the Nile 
 but remember, don't mistake the smile 
 Deep rooted is my rhymin 
 Like ancient African griots, precise is my timing 
 But let me get to the essence of what I'm sayin here 
 Too many blood red streets with bodies layin there 
 The systematic fanatics are at it again 
 Tryin to kill me and all of us my friend 
 But don't bend to the mental strain 
 Against all odds, we must strive for essential gains 
 Be true to the life the Lord gave ya 
 And that's a message from the lifesaver 
 The lifesaver.. 
 Chorus 
 [Baybe] 
 Oh I am, the life (I.. am the lifesaver) 
 I am, the life.. yeah 
 [Guru] 
 It takes a more intelligent man to squash a fight 
 than to set one off, knowledge I'll let some off 
 Cause nowadays, everybody's a killer 
 And as for me, no other MC is iller 
 but still a thorn scrapes my heart 
 when I see another life that's been torn apart 
 over nonsense, no law, no order, it's evidence 
 that the money only takes precedence 
 Cause everybody wants power 
 While the innocent are born or die, during every hour 
 I scowl as I look upon evil 
 but I must have the strength, to spark awareness in my people 
 And we will learn to respect our neighbors 
 Another message from the lifesaver 
 The lifesaver.. 
 Chorus 
 [Guru] 
 People talk about the Armaggedeon 
 And nowadays everyone you know is packin lead son 
 Each day's another test 
 Aiyyo I better do my best, cause a lot's ridin on my chest 
 So when I lead you to the water, you best know 
 how to swim across, so you can reach the border 
 It's international, the message and the flavor 
 So here's some more important words from the lifesaver 
 The lifesaver.. (I am the life) 
 The lifesaver.. 
 [Lucien] * 
 * words and translation requested 
 [Guru] 
 So many misconceptions 
 So many evil deceptions 
 I've come to give direction 
 For I, am the lifesaver
