Welcome to hard times, back again like its never been
For the first time it seem to mess with my head When I realize what it takes, can I relate With whatever, but never will it drive me to hate Could be the next guy that you take before I wake Now I lay me down to sleep, eyes tight when I pray This her is real life, circumstances make you think Should I be counting my blessings, the next second my eyes blink chorus: Here in the Southtown you know that kid don't play Put it down it the streets, will I see another day If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine And thank God that I made it alive One love it's easier said than done Can I rise above anything that gets in my way? Like words you say, you let your tongue get loose And when push comes to shove, I'm not used to walking away I keep on looking up, because these times are getting tough Tomorrow's gone and it's the same o' song Father fill my cup, give me strength to power up A life to shine, you're the diamond in this rough It ain't got to be like this Don't wanna throw up my fist, Don't wanna be like this Don't wanna throw up my fist, I must resist chorus |

I lie down, I sleep, when I wake, sustain me
Outkast blast through deception, the tension, your mind collapse Relapse, the stress of matter, when I shatter like glass The never seen, the never heard style we bring forth Can't ignore, the Four, ripp'n straight when I take your Title, self, X it out like homicidal it's vital, to make my flesh be suicidal We tribal, sing with the Saints, let our spirits fly Hold down the string with the poser Jah has given I Break back the chains, release the squeeze off my veins Empty box, hollow rocks, I knock you out your frame Shallow grave marks the date, Oh' Babylon the Great Evil virus, be like Cyrus, trample down your gates We're the ones, the chosen sons Come out of dark into light, rather fight than run We came to die for the reasons you put us down Don't know when, could have then, what's the time, the time is now I lie down, I sleep, when I wake, sustain me Ready, attack, bout' to break you down fast like collision Religion, take you from vision to flashback In an instant, calculate precise precision It's vivid, turn your intimidation to timid I'm in it, count down to self-destruction That's word to my mother when you suffer the repercussions Clear the path, it's the wrath coming through You ain't got what it takes to make me break Because I'm harder than you I'm harder than you You ain't got what it takes |

In the howling wind comes a stinging rain See it driving nails Into the souls on the tree of pain From the firefly, a red orange glow See the face of fear running scared in the valley below Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Bullet the blue In the locust wind comes a rattle and hum Jacob wrestled the angel and the angel was overcome You plant a demon seed; You raise a flower of fire You see them burning crosses You see the flames higher and higher Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue sky Bullet the blue Bullet the blue This guy comes up to me His face red like a rose on a thorn bush Like all the colors of a royal flush And he's peeling off those dollar bills Slapping them down One hundred, two hundred And I can see those fighter planes And I can see those fighter planes Across the mud huts where the children sleep Through the alleys of a quiet city street You take the staircase to the first floor Turn the key and slowly unlock the door As a man breathes into a saxophone And through the walls you hear the city groan Outside is America Outside is America Across the field you see the sky ripped open See the rain through a gaping wound Pounding on the women and children Who run Into the arms Of America |

Breathe
This is the knowledge that I bring, Universal worldwide culture Inhale, exhale I takes it all in No second guessing Truth brings forth a new passion No second guessing Push aside this fate for the ransom Stands among, gold seven and lox'd up White wool; fire eyes, glowing in red Water of rush, planet hold, in double edge Falling down dead, last first, it's one life Life source, in resurrection, these bloodstains Shining face, this morning stars reflections Embracing light, the clearness of sunrise Tower strong, in this refuge, my fortress Breathe This is the knowledge that I bring, Universal worldwide culture Inhale, exhale I takes it all in No second guessing Truth brings forth a new passion No second guessing Push aside this fate for the ransom |

Chorus:
Tribal warriors! Where do you stand in this battle cry tribal soldier? Represent I and I jah jah warriors! Repeat 4x The reconstruction commences. The soldiers equip for the lessons. My life, a sacrifice is made new through these confessions. Manifested, this joy is my desire. Light this fire to flames. Praise the name jehovah jireh. Is my provider the truth that lives inside this fighter? Take me higher, master, sire makes me a good rider. I'm gonna ride on down 'til I break through the front lines, And ain't going home until I gets mines. Chorus: Tribal warriors! Where do you stand in this battle cry tribal soldier? Represent I and I jah jah warriors! Repeat 4x I grab ahold of my second chance. This time I'm gonna make it last. Left the world, came back an outcast. To lay among the remains, Through the trials and the pains. Run for cover, make shelter, uncharted terrains. Bloodstains light the paths to the ways of living breath. My soul is put to the test. Blessed with a mic in my hand. Jah make straight my steps. Then I hooked up with payable on death. We flow in unity. Stand in one while the foolish be, Lost in this hour. With power we have authority, To overcome while these cowards just pick up and run. Well we ain't done 'til this battle has been fought and won. This vitory, how sweet it be, is already ours. Holding the stars, is the man that carries my scars. Always the same, wear his name with no shame. Here in this battle cry, we will never die. We will never die tribal warriors We will never die We will never die tribal warriors We will never die We will never die We will never die I want to know! Chorus: Where do you stand in this battle cry tribal soldier? Represent I and I jah jah warriors! Repeat 4x |

Underground dwellaz, roaming beneath the cellars Failed us with this system, ain't living how they tell us Hideaway place, it's safe, they raise a nation of hate Erase a main for his faith They feed us lies, dress up my King in false disguise Behind those eyes, soul of a savior I recognize No compromise, while the whole world becomes corrupt Tonight we break the surface for lives, We coming up Brother take my hand Lets separate ourselves Leave behind this place Don't ever look back Disgraced man, survivors of the wasteland, Looking for a home of his own No place to run, now place to hide It's time for you to stand on your own Militia, coalition, not of this world Resistance, we the alliance We freedom fighters, its honor we defend We follow truth and never your trends Brother take my hand Lets separate ourselves Leave behind this place Don't ever look back chorus Brace yourself like a man |
