[Az]
Close ya eyes and fly with me
Spark a lie get high with me
Bitch leaise with me
Come inside and see
[Monifah]
Seeeeee with meeee
[AZ]
C'mon, C'mon
Close ya eyes and fly with me
Light ya lie get high with me
Bitches eyes 'll see
[Verse One - AZ]
Yo, blessin's to the young ones trapped in the world
Never hate the next man that be tappin' your girl
It's just a hype
So many things a man vision through life
Help me to understand the chosen ones livin' through Christ
Blind in time from so many signs showin' from greed
Tryin' to calculate all the firms
I blow em for weed
Started out just a young shorty breaking the rules
Turned out to be the wise educating the fools
So many lost is these last dayz
Closed curtains
Tryin' to change from my past ways
I'm soul searching
Diggin' deep tryin' feel within
It's real ill
Takin' time just to chill with friends
We still build
Always told when I kick it with moms
To stay strong
Watch out for the bitches thats wicked
That play wrong
Keep your game strong
Maintain yourself and live
God bless the kids
Soon somethin' gotta give
[Chorus - Monifah]
The last dayz
Are comin'
Towards you
It's time to bid
???
The last dayz
Are comin'
Towards you
It's time to bid
AZ tell 'em my dear
[Verse Two - AZ]
You kinda know when your end is near
I been there
Seeing years disappear
Been there
Nobody wins here
Swore on the population
We fightin' blind
For sure we need to stop the hating
And lightin' mines
Many die from a tradic death
In cold blood
But hoggin' niggas lost black respect
Show love
Sometimes I wonder was we ever free
High officials
They move so cleverly
Don't ever sleep
Got my mind on a proverb
Ecclesiastics
These bible words so absurb
I beat 'em back
Was the open doors
Gave me a cause to stay swift
And for war
It gave me the swore to stay rich
Understanding is the best part
Besides that
A fella of to a fresh start
No time to sidetrack
So much more still to come
It seems strange
I was much more iller young
But things change
Tryin' to grow old
So many sights to see
Told 'em never fall
Just move righteously
You know
[Chorus - Monifah]
[Verse Three - AZ]
I never knew any bloods and crips
But they exist
In New York it's just thugs and clicks
We offer chips
Makin' moves tryin' to stay afloat
It get deep
In these streets you either stay awoke
Or get beats
And strategize like the wise kings
Respect due
Others get high
Let their mind scheme
I got ??tacuu??
In this world where so many stress
Understand
Ain't nothin' left but the thoughts of the death
We sons of man
So I practice the same as C
It's Oprah season
Got police moving dangerously
For no reason
Hope that soon we can all adapt
Get wise
And realise who the soul 'll trap
In diguise
Assassinated by my own kind
So why act
And cause blacks to have a closed mind
Deal with facts
Keep your eyes open
Never rock yourself to sleep
Love to the East
Let the dead rest in peace
[Chorus - Monifah] x 2
[Outro - Monifah]
We gotta do
what we gotta do
Brothers, sisters
You gotta wake up
You gotta wake up
Ain't nothing gonna come from this
We gotta make it right now
We gotta make it right now now
Oohhhhh
