CLEF:
I woke up this morning I was feeling kind of high It was me, Jesus Christ and Haile Selassie Selassie said
greetings in the name of the most high, Jah Rhastafari, Christ, took a sip of the Amaretto, Passed it down the
table said today I'll be betrayed by one you 12 disciples Give me a clue who could do this to you? The kid on the
block who makes less money than you. Crooked cops pulled up, they offered him 20 pieces of silver All he got to
do is deliver the savior Right on Bergen St. from bad luck to good luck My cup runneth over, pass it down, guzzle
up The time has arrived, the prophecy will manifest I saw death, I got scared, butterflies on my chest Father if
possible, pass this cup before me, But it's too late I chose my destiny in Gethsemane.
LAURYN:
You see I loved hard once, but the love wasn't returned I found out the man I'd die for, he wasn't even concerned
And time it turned, He tried to burn me like a perm Though my eyes saw the deception, My heart wouldn't let me
learn From um, some, dumb woman, was I, And everytime he'd lie, he would cry and inside I'd die. My heart must
have died a thousand deaths Compared myself to Toni Braxton thought I'd never catch my breath Nothing left,
he stole the heart beating from my chest I tried to call the cops, that type of thief you can't arrest Pain
suppressed, will lead to cardiac arrest Diamonds deserve diamonds, but he convinced me I was worth less when
my peoples would protest, I told them mind their business, cause my shit was complex More than just the sex I
was blessed, but couldn't feel it like when I was caressed I'd spend nights clutching my breasts overwhelmed by
God's test I was God's best contemplating death with a Gillette But no man is ever worth the paradise MANIFEST
PRAZ:
Gun-clap Shell cap, Got them crawling on they back Come through with the Fu They be who the **** is that It's
unpredictable, when my tongue performs like Jujitsu Cut you with my lyrics, stab you with my pencil Lethal
injection, witness protection Refugee camp's under investigation Gunshot bursts in all directions For the wack
MC's we read your revelations Discharge through your pores Get raw and kill Boors I can Capleton when I'm on a
Tour Some manifest, with slugs in they chest God bless all the Cowboys in the Wild Wild West
