alshafaq el-bey - lost at sea lyrics

[intro]
we’re lost at sea
we’re lost at sea
we’re lost at sea

[verse]
let me be your favorite voice of this movement
daily inspiration, let me inspire you to do this
my mom was a teacher.. and yeah, me too
but i’m teaching in a way that won’t be boring to you
let me teach you how to think and help you grow your backbone
you drowning in deep water, but you are not alone
all it takes is confidence.. my baby, you can swim
your twin flame in this thing.. i am him
lost at sea.. thought i was gon’ drown
i went into their courtroom and got knocked down
i got knocked down again.. and i got back up
it’s all f+ckеd up the system is corrupt
i use to bе on seven mile and bentler moving grams of that raw man
til’ i discovered that i was dead and that i had a strawman
a birth certificate is a death certificate
yo what the f+ck is this sh+t?
wasn’t old enough to speak for myself so they issued a certificate
but i’m not a minor anymore.. authenticate me
pay me what you owe me, i don’t care how much you hate me
my life was a mess.. it wasn’t what i planned it to be
i was just playing the cards that they handed to me
once upona time butch jones and demetris holloway was the man to me
but now i’ve elevated to a level them people can’t stand to see
my christian name means “he who is like god”
i finally saw through their façade
from a thug to a god
on that malcolm x sh+t, get your hand out my pocket
shooting off these case laws like i’m launching a rocket
i was bamboozled, i was hoodwinked, i was robbed, i was cheated
but i smartened up now.. and they look so defeated
i won’t be disrespected.. my status is corrected
praying to the east but i’m westside connected
i want collateral and securities.. keep your paper money
streets path with gold in the land of milk and honey
the same way donald goines was “al c. clark”
g. twilight is “alshafaq el+bey” caught between the light and the dark
or twilliam shakespeare, but that only if you nasty
sporting a fez with the cartier buffs, detroit hood classy
no i don’t carry a gun.. but i do bear arms
a big desert eagle.. plus this cancer charm
uccc+1’s everything is on lock
try to take something from and i’ma blow up this block
my grandparents came to detroit in the 1940’s from s.c
but even way back then, they was lost at sea
my mom was lost at sea.. and it passed down to me
but the generational curse has been broken, it was meant to be
yeeeahhh!!
