[Verse]
I gotta thank GOD for my devotion
It's known to offspring hope to the hopeless
Fvck a cataract, I'm never losing focus
For my people, I got ulterior motives
Malcolm X in his prime, the planets have aligned
I just wanna get my people on the right side of wave signs
To peak the positive in the wave signs, amplitude
Until I reach the highest altitude
I admit, we gotta calibrate our attitudes
For us to truly care what matters too
I'm gradually defying gravity
Fvck Newton's analogy
To soar to higher heights, I've got a strategy
Crabs in a bucket, fvck it
Won't malfunction my function
You in the path to my goal
You playing Tim Duncan
Tryna plague on my downplay
You Ronald Reagan
Praying that I never reach my destination
Til I'm detonating
That's why I'm glad this is Obama nation
That's why I'm glad this is Obama nation
You are listening to a prominent
Pry me, I'm an optimist
Living life at it's optimal
Can't you sense what I'm against
Can't you sense what I'm against
Insert change, I am Dhalsim levitating
I'm just trying to change the state of the world while I am meditating
While I am meditating
[Outro]
Church
All I need
Mustard seed of faith
That's all I need
Captain of my soul
