Chorus: Gift of Gab

We keep embellishin upon a new uncharted path

Expressin what we see and how we comprehend the math

So there's enough for everyone we gotta make it last

We gotta make it last..

[Gift of Gab]

As I embark on life's journey from the point where I'm at

Peace to everyone I know or who I go way back wit

Every pimp every mack, every gangsta to jack

Every hustler feedin babies, anybody pro-black

Every sister raisin kids without the help of a dad

Wantin for they children all the things that they never had

All the brothers handlin business even though shit's hard

Wakin up at five A.M., holdin down three jobs

All my rasta brethern gettin insight from trees

To my brothers up in college gettin Ph.D's

or any other degree, even if you just read

for mental health, see you're concious that your mind is free

All my people locked down, for your past mistakes

Mentally and spiritually, dwellin past the gates

You could change your ways, elevate today

To all recovered alcoholics chillin up in AA

Every black-owned business, keep doin for self

Helpin out the community and spreadin the wealth

Understand that help ain't gonna come from nowhere else

Revolutionaries makin the unjust get dealth wit

head on black people got to meet the task

Educate, keep learnin, gotta question, ask!

And let your light keep shinin and remember the past

By any means necessary, we'll be free at last

Chorus

[Gift of Gab]

As I embark on life's journey from the point where I'm at

Peace to everybody strivin to live right and exact

Even though anxieties try to pull you down

See your troubles as a blessin and you're homeward bound
