lyrics

(J. Dotta)
W...w...w...wake up precious timing no Jacob/ all dat criticizing attentive is what it make us (echo)/ ah second reflect what make us / I grew up in the southerner most of da northern hate us / and ion no why birthed ah flow dats so fly / we just added some southern demeanor up to dat coke ah (echo) / aloha dotta is what I go by / da plot thickens just like da grass can't see da cobras / so dey strike us swear dis shit outta rikers / what da fuck is bars suppose to mean to ah lifer / mind set DC sniper wit ah rifle reminiscing bout trayvon and dat shit dey did to Michael / (chorus) light up, light up / bang blood clot means clot blood for all da pain / tears never stop we just created ah drain / and we mourn fa da moment till it happens again/

Got that glow I got that power/ Got that power got that Glow/ Every minute every hour so I guess I gotta/ LIGHT UP/ LIGHT UP/ LIGHT UP/ LIGHT UP/ (2X)

(Kel Ricks)
I got a tongue full of fire(2x)/ flame in my pupils/ molten lava holder I’m letting it go for you to(2x)/ cordially invited majesty(2x) yeah you’re highness/ Royalty the finest sight for the blinded/ new storm is coming make way for the climate/ media(2x) they provoke it/ roll it up(2x)yeah they can smoke it/ yeah we been the dopest/ wonder where the dope is/ every nook and cranny where you treasure every hope is/yeah this shit potent raid it like its Oakland/ I just call it gray and black/ black and gray /black and white/ preacher preach pastor wife/ keep it in check don’t ask for Nikes/ open ya legs don’t ask for price/ when ya face death don’t ask for life/ yeah so its silence for the fighters/ up above of ya head with cha lighters/

*Chorus*

(Joshua)
It was Joshua who fought that battle of Jericho/ Israelite's marching that wall around merry go/ rams horn sounding I'm crashing down all your stero/ types they alright/ they straight/ niggas is hetero/ SBS was cool but DJ's gave em that pedestal/ let's see what the K.L.U.B. do on the next/ unsuccessful hoe / keep wishing yo hatred/ you know the city we stay in/ people wouldn't support Jesus in a fight against Satan/ the hell you put your faith in/ that has to be negligence/ The Banksy of this rap shit this place I'm defacing/ who knew that radiant child/ would be one of the greatest/ the Basquiat of your iPod playlist but Norris better/ seldom admit faults but feel as if fucking failed him/ but if they knew what I lost hell they unfamiliar/ crib gone/ money gone/ my bitch went crazy/ niggas like be strong/ fuck it I ain't able/ about a second away from cussing my creator/ but my antie saying nephew he saved us/ so how dare you even speak to give ultimatums/ Our first task was easy street/ and even got them dreams taken/ got that flow I got that fire/ fire got that flow/ brother these are my desires/I'm finally taking control/ Curtis meet the impressions nigga done found soul/ Trinidad meet the internet niggas done found gold/ Woooooo
