But you know somethinglike I used to always tell you baby
A good listener's a good learner
(g-o-d's my reality)
I see you listened very wellunderstand?
(I'm elevating strong and I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)
Your time is coming baby
See sometimeit could be likea rear view
Youknowhati'msayin? and people don't know when their blessing comes
But I watch you growman you is a very intelligent man
ManI watched you when I used to sit down and you would
Trick me out my money shootin diceniggaz is you crazy?
Ha ha ha ha ha ha!
(g-o-d's my reality)
Crazy you crazy man
Yo raeyou remember that shit man?
When we used to be down there in the hills and shit man?
(I'm elevating strong I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)
And you'd catch itfrom old man freed
He'd be yelling "you little slick ass"
Ha ha ha ha

Ha ha ha ha
I've been through all them thingsman I'm watchin you growin
But remember one thing rae like I used to tell you
The child you was is making you the man you is today
And if you don't know where you came from baby
You damn sure know that you don't know where you going
Can you see what I'm saying?
Know which way you travelling
(we've got the powers to resurrect the dead)
You understand? and follow that destinyfollow the light
And it'll set you free
(ohhg-o-d's my reality)
Cause I've watched you baby
You my main man
Yeah
(we're elevating strong and we're going on to the highest degree)
Now that could be the wu-tang production
Start to knuckle up andgun shots start to click the block's duckin
Could it beand would it bethat we was babies
Catchinrabiesniggaz seem to act crazy
Day onein my spot july the tenth
I had a mintstickin up devines hittin them with nines
I was toxiefrom layin up in roxie's all night
This nigga bust a shotlick my man's wife
It was havoc I contact the abbot
He shook the shoulder thoughthen he passed the phat chrome automatic
We goin to waryou know we headed to the floor
He wouldadid itfor me fuck itlet's mosie
Schemin doughwith the p.l.o.wrapped on tight
Sayin in my mic "yo we gotta go"
My first impression was to add some lessons
Questiononewhat made you even show your gun and blow the session?
He replied and rocked the green eye
And yohe startedyellin "them niggaz sellin two for fives!"
But he's a goner and I got my corner
WhatI'm feedin my babiescash rules for mortal daughters
Yeahrae baby
Feedin my babiescash rules for mortal daughters
Only God is the son of man
(we've got the powers to ressurrect the dead)
I'll say it one timeand be ceratin that fake God does not exist
(ohhg-o-d's my reality)
(I'm elevating strong we're gonna go on to the highest degree)
This is why the universehas itself balanced the scale
Of devine knowledgeand it was measured by the portion
Of solid knowledge
No mancan judge for another
But each man must weigh all facts and circumstances
And find truth in his own judgment of righteousness
Seethe way to evilbalance equality in no man
For no man is good and bad at the same time
Either you goodor you bad
