Chief Kamachi - This Man lyrics

This Man this Man
This Man this Man

Yo, most peoples life control
By the things they worship
But my soul ain't for Shaitan's purchase
I remember being young
Grandmoms telling me to keep silent
In the churches but my inner searches
Went beyond scriptural verses
And giving the Preacher bills from her purses
Cuz what was real was the jails
And the bodies that sailed in the hearses
Abandoned cribs, with no operating circuit's
The pain not able to get your
Children ticket for the Circus
Never leave the hood
Til the mess as big as the Earth is
Now the Angels at your service
To guide you to happiness and help
You sense a higher purpose
The truth is the Savior is at
The end of your own arm
You do anything to eat
And the world say you so wrong
Cultural elements
The root of emotional derailments
To lead to the eyes failed
Princes looking through jail fences
And use to park Benzes
But ended up on park benches c'mon
This Man this Man
This Man this Man

Yo, I'm the eldest
Of five siblings split up
So don't ask me why the L's is lit up
And I'm still tryna wonder why
The hell I get up?
But I just can't seem to give up
Against the Earth and this cruelty
Hell is grudge
But these streets I fell in love
But than I seldom rub the wicked
Body of bells and bub in the hood trap
And they tryna derail the sub
After the hammer drop
Then there's nothing to tell the judge
See the pen coming hear the state
Bus running often tryna tuck something
We grizzling but end up in
The prison yard whistling
On death row looking for
Protestors and petitions
Listen to the words of a scattered musician
Who speaks for the youth caught in a loop
Living a lawless truce for a faloos
Their minds is loose
And it's never a time for truce
In these jungle we die for our fruit's
See the police eyeing our troops
Eating steaks and french fries on the stoop
With a buck 25 and a Goose
Hustling like we don't see no
White guys on the roof
But that's the risk you take when it's
A nighttime on the deuce- sing this Man
This Man this Man
This Man

Yo these are jewels for an Honest Abe
After I sit down and contemplate
I was so hurt by my mama's fate
Knowing her son about to dominate
And she can blow out the
Candles on her promised cake
And enjoy a finer plate
That's why I stay with a piranha face
In search of gold fish
Nurtured from a soul dish
Look at the way the
Street's oppression mold us
Corrupted mommy's precious soldier
I grew up with the Avenue in me
Plus I picked up the habit's of plenty
Though young boy
The old heads said they'd give me
Everything from revolvers to semi to dope
Tryna stay afloat
It's easy to stray away from hope
When everyday is broke
Looking back at 58th and Pascle Ave
When I was playing tag in
My 'lil rascal rags

This Man this Man
This Man this Man
