All That I Am [Something For The People]

DAHOUD DARIEN, LONNIE RASHID LYNN, BILAL S. OLIVER, KEISHA WHATLEY

All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though
All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though

Out of the mouth of a black man scorned
I see you laughing with swollen eyes
Life beat a mother when you're
Playing the losing side dream deferred
Vision's blurred a hustle served
And anyone who would listen
Respect is earned a lesson's learned
How many sleepless night's have you
How many?
How many shift the state have you watched
It turn it to fade away
While you use all tricks to backtrack
Try to be right and exact
But lack of paper will make a nigga act
Like a nigga, forget that he black
Moms is working two jobs
Pops is worshiping two gods
Yo, hard times at the bar downtown
Wondering what's on God's mind

All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though
All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though

Truth is born
From the soul of a black man sworn
To barren streets from the east
Souls get raised diamonds reflect
Pimped out days where my uncle
Lays his game down
He's in the galaxy of game
And never came down he's from the same town
I mean planet as them, ya know
Donald Goines and Iceberg Slim
Had a precious old angel
Sharpest in the stable
Blond wig, with a pierced naval
He branded her his angel in disguise
Eating his pockets and feeding him lies
After a few broken arms and black guys
She wrote a book to make his favor rise
Then sold to a system where
He'll never breathe again
Down to Earth just to leave again

All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though
All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though
All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though
All that I am all that I know
All that I ever will be and though something

Pointing to there
Bring your light to the truth
Then make it realer for you
We're bringing light to the truth
Realer for you
We're bringing light to the truth
Make it realer for you
We're bringing light to the truth
Realer for you
We're bringing light to the truth
Light to the truth realer for you
Light to the truth realer for you
All that I am
