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 »

[Guru]
Doing it in the house like this 
Going out to the lost souls 
Doing this for you and yours 
Comin' straight to you from the Guru and the crew

[Chorus]
To the lost souls 
I hope you find your way someday 
That's why I sit, and I pray 
For the lost souls 
I hope you find your way someday 
That's why I sit, and I pray

[Guru]
Sometimes I wonder why 
Some people can't see what's beyond the naked eye 
So therefore I must fortify 
Techniques of communication 
For beyond what is considered to be 
Normal conversation 
So I need some proper 'ticipation 
Am I giving what you need?
Yes, true indeed
As greed grows like weed 
Many bad seeds start to contaminate the crop
I think that needs to stop hops
Brothers are slain over respect and clout
While their mothers are trying to figure out
What's it all about
But when you give up on self, that's when you lost
'Cause you're playing with your life
Like it's a coin toss

[Chorus]

[Guru]
No doubt I release a form of speech 
Relative to urban outreach 
Transmitted messages to each true listener 
Rhymes divine but rough 
Like the skin on blisters 
'Cause the truth hurts 
Plus I got no time for runnin' around, chasin' skirts 
So, see, my sound is a corrector 
A profound lecture 
Quality texture 
That's because of what I see 
A lot of emcees are gassed like hellium 
Word up, G
A lot of people in general are straight up no good 
Makes me want to shoot 'em 
Aiyo, maybe I should 
But instead I parlay 
Maintain self control 
And say a prayer for the lost souls

[Chorus]

[Guru]
Get up, stand up 
Come on, stand up for your right 
One, two
I go to new heights with my insight 
Whipping my mic tight 
With the height of a scholar 
Equipped with the gift to make crazy dollars 
But that ain't the whole 
See my heart is in it 
That's the only way one could even attempt to win it 
Dj spin it while others critique 
But the science makes 'em weak 
Check the words that I speak 
See, it's ridiculous for us 
Not to discuss 
The real issues 
Like all you phonies 
And why I dis you 
Dismiss you as a lost soul

[Chorus]

[Jason Kay of Jamiroquai/Guru]
If you don't watch where you step 
You can become indirect 
And you know that you will lose your soul 
And if you truly want to lose 
Until there's nothing to choose 
Then you know that you will lose your soul 
To the lost soul 
I hope you find your way someday 
So I sit, and I pray 
For the lost soul 
I hope you find your way someday 
Lose it 
You can lose it 
You can lose it 
You can lose your soul 
To the lost soul 
Hope you find your way 
I hope you find your way someday
