Akua Naru - Nag Champa lyrics

Turn me up

Yo, a fly poet, Earth traveler, Bohemian type
I write to light mic's for rap scavengers
Tight like the opposite of cellulite, uh
I just might breath on ya insight
Confiscate your height, right?
Watch the green tea sipper exhale light
Inhale the inner scope of Christ
Plus the flow nice, uh
Cats afraid to say the same thing twice
The neighborhood's got us caged like mice
So the page they write
The "who"s and "what"s in
This maze called life
While privileges be saved for white
They say enslavement twice
Some say we weak and afraid to fight
Another murder on a Saturday night
Another newspaper write
Another rape on a Friday night
And then the murder on the Saturday night
Another journalist type
Another murder on a Saturday night
Can you imagine what my Sunday be like? Lord

Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day burn the nag champa
Like minds come together
Let's elevate to hide the stains
Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day burn the nag champa
Like minds come together

(Uh, uh) at night I like to think
Of myself as a villain (All right)
Kidnap your sentence
Watch your paragraph catch feelings (Hey)
I autographed this track
Witness the sound of that (Uh, uh huh)
In the business of shittin'
Get your coat and it's a wrap
My part of speech beyond reach like Ghandi
On the search inside me with
Hopes to finally find peace, uh
They it's just another step away
Hey just another step away
As these words sway those dramatic
Phrase on the pen stage fire ablaze
I write myself in the maze as Nina
Simone combs the tangles of my day
Nina Simone combs the tangles of my day

Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day burn the nag champa
Like minds come together
Let's elevate to hide the stains
Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day burn the nag champa
Like minds come together
(yeah, it's like this)

They say that peace is a step away
They say that peace is a step away
They say that truth is a step away
They say that truth is a step away
They say that justice is a step away
They say that justice is a step away
They say that love is a step away
They say that love is a step away

Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day burn the nag champa
Like minds come together
Let's elevate to hide the stains (Come on)
Burn the nag champa
Inhale, exhale the peaceful cloud
In the day-to day (Okay)
Burn the nag champa like minds come together
