Feeling it this morning I ain't even smoked yet That's what talking to Her does for me Gets my blood flowing The wheels of my mind turning She makes me happy to Greet the new day Ready to do battle in these Streets of Babylon I enter elevated and protected Ready to explore life Every aspect in depth My search and discover mission Continues like la lucha Unearthing answers like precious gems I hope that one day acquiring Knowledge means that much to them It most definitely is the key Without it another dumb brother From the hood is all I'd be Thankful for the planting of that seed When I was young and thirsty Soaking up all that I could get and then some Started with the illustrated Autobiography of Jackie Robinson That opened up the reservoir As I needed to know more and more I read everything I could comprehend Then learned the shit I didn't The same recipe I use to this day Guided by knowledge and the constant Absorption of it as I make my way Navigate the treacherous waters Where sharks wait ready to slaughter Those guided by ignorance Those that have given up That have never filled their cup Never been inspired Or had anyone to fan the Fires of their desires I always think and say That it's hard to know what You've never been told To do what you've never been shown To cultivate and curate a happy life When you've never been Exposed to that light So many are left to just reach into The dark and hope for the best Basically panning for gold In the rivers of life More often than not only Coming up with iron pyrite Sometimes I hate when I'm right What's that they say about hindsight I'm tripping Give me a second to get my mind right Ok ok ok I'm back Morning ritual in full swing Ready to do the damn thing Bring it Let's get into it Dirty in the trenches I'm ready to rock relentless Ride or die F*ck foolish pride I'm going in for all those on my side Consider this the turning of the tide Let's burn some bridges tonight I'm tired of playing nice From now on I ain't letting shit slide Welcome to my other side I'll never forget those that Laughed when I cried Right then and there Whatever we were died Like the vibe when The hood got gentrified
