Blackalicious If I May Lyrics

If I May Lyrics

Erinn Anova] (Chorus) 

Come along and reap 

I need my song 

We're
climbin' over 

Beneath the sea 

March on 

Time is almost gone


It's all in me 

No maybe 



[Gift Of Gab] 

Here we go again


Slip into my conscience, come along an take in 

A story bout a battle,
in this corner, Satan 

Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink


And suddenly disasters and catastrophe 

And acting unrationally


Reacting savagely 

To passionately 

Bask in everlasting like
escapes from just what its creating 

Jeopardizin' love 

Look at all the
people that you took advantage of 

See your hypnotized 

Rom be gone,
take another cup 

In consequences lurk 

While the reaper got your shirt
size 

Nigga wack up 

Times overdue for the birth of a power that the
universe grew from 



(Chorus 2X) 



[Gift Of Gab] 

You
search for the answers outside 

Refocus causin' time and time again,
backslide 

You've noticed times before the presence of that "I" 

But
never did submit to it and let it apply 

Whatever be his will in this
present life time 

Or essence like mine 

Know the blessings you might
find 

If you let your higher power inside 

Emerge and apply to every
single thing in your balance 

You will truly find 

Who you really are


Die and become reborn 

When God is present in your life than you can
come reap on 

And ain't a storm that you can't weather 

You got a
purpose you was born to create 

Destiny is waitin' for you 

Arms open,
take with ya 

Knowledge bestowed by the great giver 

Lakes, rivers


Mountains and steams 

Now reality's the dream wraitha 

No more
searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha 

It had to hit ya through the
struggle and the turmoil 

Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above
soil 

And let the sun shine freely down 

At times it looked like it
wouldn't 

But the plant came to flourish 

Now it's standin' on solid
ground 



(Chorus 2X) 



[Lateef] 



Sun rises like water
up in my eyes 

I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide


Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be 



[Lateef & Erinn
Anova] 



The sun rises like water up in my eyes 

I'm watchin'
changing times but like a changing tide 

Tryna to keep my head up


Above the ed if I could be 

Least 

If I may 



(Chorus 4X)
