Mark My Words
06-03
my cousin always told me if you say it can happen

As if written in blood sent from above or stated in love
This this that I mention was given to me for livin’ /
Truly I’m driven / those that deny they lie
My thoughts fought the dread to spread ‘cross the sky
And I / intersect messages of the pestilence
Powers represent when they exploit what my essence is
Media / see the effects that it’s feedin’ us
Bleed and lead cause seeds to heat it up /
Wanna make a name get some fame cause headlines
Fix their lips to spit they live for dyin’ / Lord /
What you say / can be used against you on the block
But I’ma tell ‘em ‘bout the power we got

And you can mark my…words (we can rise above the pain)
Mark my…words (time that we bang for change)
Mark my…words (thank god for the gift of game)
Mark my…words (time that we bang for change)

Iyi / like the sound of field hollers
call for real plotters / for black men turn martes
The 4BiddeNation havin’ conversation ‘bout their situation
and embracing’ we are forgotten / retaliation /
Presented in piecin’ pitches stayin’ suspicious /
Vicious is the man you work but take his riches
Daily dares / only protected by daily prayers
of the wise and aware of the struggle from bein’ there
everything we / bare has strengthen but left us missin’ the bond /
the voice is in the throat but the yell won’t come /
where the hell we from both mother land and states
we’re gonna bend it till we really get a break

Better mark my…words (we can rise above the pain)
Mark my…words (time that we bang for change)
Mark my…words (thank god for the gift of game)
Mark my…words (time that we bang for change)
