the roots – understand lyrics
[intro: dice raw]
never understand
[hook: dice raw]
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shaking his head, says “he’ll never understand”
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shakes his head then he says, “man’ll never understand”
[bridge: dice raw]
never understand, never understand
never understand
[verse 1: black thought]
gravedigger, dig a hole that fit a black n-gga
my body’s stiff as a madame tussaud’s wax figure
my transformation: a caterpillar from crack dealer and backpedaller was no less, than spectactular
yeah i was trappin’ money, flippin’ like a spatula
now put that sucker in a box like dracula
i led the devil in a dance
an electric slide across the line i drew up in the sand
dead, ended
love is like a harlequin’s romance
lost between sips of liquor, that empty bottle in my hands
it was a shot away, but i never got away
dreamed a little dream of me, but that was an anomaly
yea, people ask for god…
[hook: dice raw]
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shaking his head, says “he’ll never understand”
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shakes his head then he says, “man’ll never understand”
[verse 2: greg p-rn]
holy, sugar, honey, ice tea
i guess that’s a prayer for a player like me
in my church clothes breaking buds on the bible
the sweet temptation of my grand daddy’s rifle
got me thinking ’bout doing a jihad with these guys
who only true religion look better than levi’s
who baptize gl-sses with beers and blood stain
you preaching to the choir, that praise the drug game
hallelujah
’til the cops cuff me in the back of a cruiser
or the firetruck wash my soul down the sewer
i count my blessings and blow it on a nun to resurrect my erection
i pray, i pray, all dogs go to heaven
or to a new h-ll with a wi-fi connection
so i can pay for my sins on paypal
or own a holy ghost, a greyhound
[hook: dice raw]
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shaking his head, says “he’ll never understand”
people ask for god, ’till the day he comes
see god’s face – turn around and run
god sees the face of a man
shakes his head then he says, “man’ll never understand”
