Holy Grail from Retarded Intelligence by Moses Barrymore
After 2 pac speaks about the corrupted churches on "Staring Through My Rearview" Moses decides to preach about the false religions the government has forced on his people. Rapping over just a piano, Moses goes into detail about how the government sells his people false faith. He believes that God and Satan are just symbolism of what we truly don't understand in this world. "Is there really a God and a Satan or is it a figment of our imagination?" He asks at the alter. Moses expresses his lost in faith because he feels like all humans question their faith at least once in their life. "If there's really a Jesus can someone explain the reason why the good die young and some die for no reason?" as he passes the Holy Grail.

Holy Grail written by Barry Jamaal Hardy (Moses Barrymore)
6/13/2014
They say have faith in Jesus
Everything all happens for a reason
If there's really a Jesus can someone explain the reason
why the good die young and some die for no reason?
My brother Ty died I asked why am I breathing?
Since we all have to die are we alive for no reason?
I try to find meaning in this life with no meaning
Asking why am I dreaming in a life I don't sleep in?
I don't know why I'm thinking I'ma get an explanation
With no evidence to back up what I'm saying I'm just saying
I've been thinking... Is there really a God and a Satan
or is it a figment of our imagination?
2 characters created for all of us to have faith in because somebody couldn't find an explanation of where we came from.
I've been preying and patiently waiting
only to look around in my life and see the samething
I can't whine I break bread
we all die I ain't scared
I won't lie it's fuck friends
Caskets don't come with bunk beds
I was born alone and I'll die alone
The only friend I had was this microphone
She would listen when no one cared
and was always there soon as I got home
I would speak my mind through my highs and lows
when I was lost she would find my goals
Idk when we first met, we fell in love a long time ago
I remember back when I was 15 and we made love in the studio
When I die I hope my tombstone at the funeral says "I am Moses"
