cornel west theory - the promise lyrics

[verse 1]

get bak
please step bak
rats smacked
capped
clapped in traps
body sn-tch
tapped by body sukas
karate dumpers
garbage busters
i’m off the nut
i rok that blak luck and hoodoo
voudoun and oodoo
b-tch n-gga u met your match
my bare hands can gape an earthquake
apes in first place
still get scr-ped to bottom as scr-ps
reax your fate
change mic to stargate
place my name in stars place
the world was straight
but it didnt turn great
til 11-01-1978
whut up man

[hook]

we’re so beautiful
that’s just what we are

when the world wants to
give you nothing

you decided just to
keep hustling

pretty baby
that’s what you are

verse 2

i made a promise
as an artist
and
the hardest part
stayin’ on top
of the clock
the time karma bought
my promise
paying homage
unto the fathers thoughts
connecting these dots
fore this record
stops
releasin’ the harness
increasin’ the carnage
they teaching my youth
to eat garbage
while they eatin’ dollaz
got a n-gga
speakin’ in proverbs
while seekin’ teaching
for problems
deeper than
p-ssy
or
dungeon
mob goodie
stayin on my job
lightin bobs
inna di yard
gully
cannot divide
my inner shine
it’s stuck inside
of me
so
i won’t fold
won’t snitch
my n-ggas ride
4 me
sweep over my soul
won’t sellout
don’t cry for me
reach over the goal
blow sh-ll out
reach my city
leap over the hole
roll 7
keep mines
wit me
beat
blowin a o
soul reverend
keep mines
gritty
sit watching the whole world
sink
or
come fly
wit me
