Who's Gonna Take The Weight? Songtext / Lyric

Intro



Knowledge is power, and knowledge can be the difference between life

Or death... you should know the truth and the truth shall set you

Free.



Verse 1






I was raised like a muslim

Prayin to the east

Nature of my life relates rhymes I release

Like a cannon

Cuz I been plannin to be rammin what I wrote

Straight on a plate down your throat

So digest as I suggest we take a good look

At whos who while Im readin from my good book

And lets dig into every nook and every cranny

Set your mind free as I slam these thoughts

And just like a jammy goes pow [fx: gunshots]

Youre gonna see what Im sayin now

You cant be sleepin

Cuz things are gettin crazy

You better stop being lazy

Theres many people frontin

And many brothers droppin

All because of dumb things, let me tell you somethin

Ive been through so much that Im such

A maniac, but I still act out of faith

That we can get the shit together so I break

On fools with no rhymes skills messin up the flow

And people with no sense who be movin much too slow

And so, you will know the meaning of the gang starr

Guru with the mic and premier raise the anchor

Swiftly, as we embark on a journey

I had to get an attorney

I needed someone to defend my position

Decisions I made, cuz now its time to get paid

And ladies, these rhymes are like the keys to a dope car

Maybe a lexus or a jaguar

Still, all of that is just material

So wont you dig the scenario

And just imagine if each one is teachin one

Well come together so that we become

A strong force, then we can stay on course

Find your direction through introspection

And for my people out there I got a question

Can we be the sole controllers of our fate?

Now whos gonna take the weight?



Verse 2



The weight of the world is heavy on my mind

So as my feelings unwind I find

That some try to be down just cuz its trendy

Others fall victim to envy

But Ill take the road less travelled

So I can see all my hopes and my dreams unravel

Relievin your stress, expressin my interest

In the situation that youre facin

Thats why Im down with the nation

Spirituality supports reality

We gotta fight with the right mentality

So we can gain what is rightfully ours

This is the meaning of the chain and the star

Land is power, so gimme forty acres

Lets see how far I can take ya

Original invincible

Thats how Im lookin at it

I use my rhymes like a glock automatic

Any means necessary, Im goin all out

Before the rains bring the nuclear fallout

So let me ask you, is it too late?

Ayo, whos gonna take the weight?
