Everything
is everything
What is
meant to be, will be
After
winter, must come spring
Change, it
comes eventually
Everything

What is

After

Change, it

I wrote
these words for everyone who struggles in their youth
Who won't
accept deception, instead of what is truth
It seems we
lose the game
Before we
even start to play
Who made
these rules? (Who made these rules?)
We're so
confused (We're so confused)
Easily led
astray
Let me tell
ya that
Everything
is everything
Everything
is everything
After
winter, must come spring
Everything
is everything
I
philosophy
Possibly
speak tongues
Beat drum,
Abyssinian, street Baptist
Rap this in
fine linen, from the beginning
My practice
extending across the atlas
I begat
this
Flipping in
the ghetto on a dirty mattress
You can't
match this rapper slash actress
More
powerful than two Cleopatras
Bomb
graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti
MCs ain't
ready to take it to the Serengeti
My rhymes
is heavy like the mind of sister Betty (Betty Shabazz)
L-Boogie
spars with stars and constellations
Then came
down for a little conversation
Adjacent to
the king, fear no human being
Roll with
cherubims to Nassau Coliseum
Now hear
this mixture, where Hip Hop meets scripture
Develop a
negative into a positive picture
Now
everything is everything
What is
meant to be, will be
After
winter, must come spring
Change, it
comes eventually
Sometimes
it seems
We'll touch
that dream
But things
come slow or not at all
And the
ones on top, won't make it stop
So
convinced that they might fall
Let's love
ourselves and we can't fail
To make a
better situation
Tomorrow,
our seeds will grow
All we need
is dedication
Let me tell
ya that
