Zion I intro: 
Lord gimme what I need gimme what I need. 
Gimme what I need gimme what I 
Need. Lord gimme what I need gimme what I need. 

[Zion I] 
Dear Lord you show me the best of times 
You show me the worst of time 
Confusion all over my mind but still I be bustin' rhymes 
And I fight for what I want, but I die for what I need 
And I watch my people bleed while vultures steady feed 
We proceed with the mic bless 
Crashin' in your likeness 
More deadlier than vipers 
Lyric spirit snipers 
Ignite us 
We'll be candles in the dark 
Solid like Noah's Ark 
I was destined for this part 
In the scheme of thangs 
We kings and queens eatin' chicken wings 
But greasy finger tips can't hold the cepters so it slips 
Now who's equip to come up on a grip 
Abraver with Fraiser Lee I wait for the response 
And I'm locked and loaded missiles ready set to launch 
Eliminated comp-atition they gettin' bombed in the trunk 
Cause we keep 'em chunk in the trunk 
They gettin' bumped in the trunk 

[The Grouch] 
What can I learn from living life? 
What can you learn from what I write? 
I study till my lungs are bloody to him I'm just some Silly Puddy 
Who created me to play with, she to lay with, us to bust 
So I spend my day programming what...sounds? 
Cosmo bound to rap into the break of dawn 
So they can hear and know it's on 
If the flow is strong it's smart 
If it's stupid it's not art 
Marks are made so many ways 
You can spin the tires, blaze a sack for everybody dazed 
A chapter is what you're after 

[Hook] 
Zion I: Gimmie what I need gimmie what I need 
Grouch: To help them trace my tracks 
Zion I: Lord Gimmie what I need gimmie what I need 
Grouch: To stand and face the facts 
Zion I: Lord Gimmie what I need gimmie what I need 
Grouch:To lead them not astray 
Zion I: Gimmie what I need gimmie what I need 
Grouch: To say what I got to say 

[Grouch] 
Now you can faze me with your laughter your smiles or your pain 
I feel your trials when I'm down and out or winning at the game 
No one to claim Creator yet the masses are perplexed 
Cause by life we're so impressed, we all wish we had a next 
And that's no matter how much I complain 
Really couldn't place no blame 
I'll just refrain try stayin' sane and hope you watch your aim 
I scope and got the flame 
To make and knock and sock the same 
Got to use the brain 
So I can lose the chain 

[Zion I] 
See Grouch you my guru leader 
So I don't need to pack no heater 
Like syrup you make this sweeter 
This ballad is beemer teeter 
I'm tryin' to find myself 
Look at reflections of everyone else 
Some of y'all might find that funny but do not know your wealth 
You make the world turn 
You make the fire burn 
You make the wind breeze 
The sinner fall to his knees 
Now that's some powerful 
And I speak my words truthfully 
As far as I know 
Yo we all got some of God's duty 

Hook 

[Zion I] 
Let me crack my seventh seal don't rush 
Microphone's gotta get crush 
I thrush with the force of a rocket buster 
This ain't what you're use to 
Now we gonna fly high singin this song la la la 
If you don't believe in yourself you best to try 
Ain't nobody said this life is easy 
Everything a test 
Is you gonna do your best? 
Hide in the cone of flesh? 
You got to stay fresh 
Cause if you stop you stagnated 
Stale thoughts of lack will put you in a jail 
Believe I can and I will 
Set these rhymes to sail 
But will what I really feel pay the bill shit is ill 
I stare off in the distance 
Rhymin' with persistence 
Cause rhymin' is a mission 
Will anybody listen? 

[The Grouch] 
Now if you put me through any time of need 
I'm sure I'll call for help indeed 
Daily I stay silent, thinking thoughts at lightening speed 
Heightened by the feedback and forth reciprocation 
Situation rather unexplained I remain relations 
In laymens it's a vibe I felt 
De ja' vu inside myself 
I speak it verbally 
Made sure all them fools have heard of me 
Believe I'm well connected 
Not a prophet who's been resurrected 
Trust and I expect it 
When I bust it's higher effects to match your spects 
Of my blue prints and the true sense of these words 
God he lives within, all of this he's heard 
Every word (every word)
