Malcolm from The Growth by TREE OF LYFE

[Verse}

Tree of Lyfe
Get ya rights
Get ya life
Uh
Whatever
Uh,

I'm no longer how they make em
So it's asa lama lakum
bow a head say a prayer
like you bout ta meet ya maker
If you ain't getting saved
Would you wanna see a savior?
Where the women is hoes and niggas wanna be players
Tell us follow ya goals while leading us down the stairs
It's the wrong way
I'm conjuring up integrity
Trading fame and celebrity for a chance to be everything I kept in me
Yea, Yah's original recipe
All you see is my fist in the air for my acceptance speech
I realize this might frighten the masses
Brother that's well dressed with vision behind his glasses
They left us here in the flames
Who the fuck is you gassin?
Sobotaging in classes like how the hell could we pass em?
You know they turn up the fire when they burn us to ashes
I'm talking to you America online thru screen
Revolution in my bloodline it's in my genes
Every person that I get around I made them think.
Think about it.
This is spiritual awakening on concrete street
El Haj Malik Shabazz spirit speak thru me
I'm just a man with a gift
Slept on, get a sip
Won't coon for a shift
As real as it gets
Man this may be too much content
My vibe so conscious
We so no nosense
BSD
We ain't weak, we honest
The world gone live
I'ma live beyond it
You gotta be a Lion when you up against a Lion
and your history is Lying and your people stand behind it
Thirsting riding like vagina
I ain't hating on Obama but the country got a problem
I don't think a man can solve em
Scriptures warn us often
We don't listen we evolving right?
Everybody wanna see the light
From Sheol to Rio til my soul is repoed
If I know, then we know
From Phazzeone to eLO
We the Biz til we gone
This the tree that we on
Tree of Life people
It's Tree of Lyfe people
