[Verse 1: ELUCID] Save yourself, my first commandment Overhanded, feeling mannish, sure Yeah Feeling perceived Thought gather speech Out the mouth speak I'm in the house, I'm out in the street I'm bout it, I weep If I'm shouting or howling I need a week I need a month, it's never enough A certain urgency Words fail to keep the candle lit I run with who I ran it with The clash birthed planets Manic panic pulled people past peace Give me ease, giving thanks Reaching back, blessed be For my seed, for your seed, for our seed, uh Spill if it you wanna Say it cause I got it I said it when I did it You wrote a lie and put it in your wallet Gangsta I knew would hold himself like Monster Kody Swallow my tongue, I wouldn't try it Betray my heart, there's something missing without Tell it true or shut my mouth There's something missing without Tell it true or shut my mouth [Hook: ELUCID] Give thanks We was there, we know what it was Give thanks To my mother, my peoples and the plug Give thanks That they wasn't around when I was Give thanks When I'm gone, blow me a dub Give thanks We was there, we know what it was Give thanks To my mother, my peoples and the plug Give thanks They wasn't around when I was Give thanks When I'm gone, blow me a dub [Verse 2: billy woods] Two times is two too many Deftly stooped to pick up a penny In the land of plenty Kids still shoot hoops in empty milk crates, wasted youth You young, you move like Robert Kennedy Line cook tucked the deuce deuce I read the news cause it's know thy enemy The war was lost by 72 but it was 75 fore choppers abandoned the embassy Middle rounds I fight not to lose, conserve my energy Kinshasa nights, Tripoli by sunrise You don't know nothin bout the 70s We really thought we was gonna win They really thought that he was him She swore it'd be us until the end I was lucky to escape with the skin on my back Margins thin, but nigga, I'm fittin' to make a stack Tales grim, but the kids just laugh It's a grimy ring erry time I get out the bath It's a tiny thing, but I'll still pluck a dime out the grass Her smile sunshine but when the music stop, she still gotta squat to pick up the cash [Hook: billy woods] Give thanks We was there, we know what it was Give thanks To my mother, my peoples and the plug Give thanks That they wasn't around when I was Give thanks When I'm gone, blow me a dub Give thanks We was there, we know what it was Give thanks To my mother, my peoples and the plug Give thanks That they wasn't around when I was Give thanks When I'm gone, blow me a dub
