Spiritual Warfare
To the ones walkin' the righteous path [VERSE 1: LMNO] Church and state separate Plenty of God's children, devil is the king of deception Looking at the paintings of a white and black Jesus Spirit says it's simply to deceive us If I was after sacrifice, need a scapegoat I would stop fightin' and cut my own throat Lord hold me in your bosom, Satan's on my track Help me lose him, I know you're on your way Whether it's 2 years, 20 years and so forth The point is he's comin', you're summoned to God's court There's no failure to repair once we leave here 'Order, hear he,' no - you hear me You're not God, egotistical wig-wearin Mallet-slammin'... Oh, the verdict is in Free from sin, Baptism I see myself in the line-up, yes, that's him A man who ( ? ) is a man who's wise It's all how you work it, not a matter of size You don't love me anymore cause of what was said? You never loved me in the first place, see me tread In stormy waters, look, there's a rock ahead Make sure you say your prayers before you go to bed Songtexte[CHORUS] Hey you over there Are you familiar with spiritual warfare? Or do you care? [Rakim] (I got a question) Or do you care? (I got a question) Or do you care? [VERSE 2: Key-Kool] I'm not asleep but I'm not fully awake Livin' my life in a dreamlike state I see where I need to be and I'm tryin' to get there But it feels like I'm runnin' in place Runnin' a race against time is a waste A true mind doesn't have a face or physical shape But wait, it's hard to belay a manifest When my bones ache and I'm made of flesh I feel a pain in my chest from stress and self-inflicted wounds From the time we leave the womb we're consumed By the brainwashin' of a society Where conciousness is like sobriety a rarity I have a moment of clarity Now I refuse to live life as a parody of the truth The proof at the root is hidden beneath Layers of false satisfaction and deceit I fight to defeat the distractions Material attachments and worldy passions I'm askin' myself: am I egotistical and selfish Or truly nothing, selfless?
