Be (intro) Lyrics

Be (intro) lyrics

I want to be as free as the spirits of those who left

I'm talking Malcom, Coltrane, my man Yusef

Through death through conception

New breath and resurrection



For moms, new steps in her direction

In the right way told inside is where the fight lay

And everything a nigga do may not be what he might say

Chicago nights stay, stay on the mind



But I write many lives and lay on these lines

Wave the signs of the times many say the grind is on the mind

Shorties blunted eyed and everyone wonderin' where I'm

Bush pushing lies, killers immortalized



We got arms but won't reach for the skies

Waiting for the Lord to rise, I look into my daughter's eyes

And realize that I'ma learn through her

The Messiah, might even return through her



If I'ma do it, I gotta change the world through her

Furs and a Benz, grams wantin' 'em

Demons and old friends, pops they hauntin' him

The chosen one from the land of the frozen sun



When drunk nights get remembered more than sober ones

Walk like warriors, we were never told to run

Explored the world to return to where my soul begun

Never looking back or too far in front of me



The present is a gift

And I just wanna be
