KRS-One - Dayz Ahead lyrics
[KRS-One - Dayz Ahead lyrics]
Godcore urban inspirational holy Hip-hop
You know the type, all in your city word up
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The love I give to you, you give to me
Let's come together once and for all
Before our children cannot walk in the mall
Before we can not talk or walk at all
Already aviation is stalled
Now everybody wants to drive
Bringing our highways to a crawl
Just about three weeks on back
I was talking to a journalist about my album
The Sneak attack
Now I know, why I felt that way
Why the cards God revealed to
Me was dealt that way
Be prepared for the unexpected
That was the theme
But if your booty's shaking
You can't know what that means
Look, we all, in the, same, game
It's that world bank game that
Got struck with two flame
But we, yes the people
Are struck with true pain
Coz the world Bank'll do the
Same under a new name
We gotta recognize the prize
And the people at the door
No more lies, you can no longer ignore
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The respect I give to you, you give to me
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The respect I give to you, you give to me
Capitvating lyrical flow!
Yeah, but the spirit know
But only a few can hear it though
The metaphysical lyrical blow
The minute you're in it and hear it, yo
See the evil and clear it, yo
See that for as many that died
There was twice as many miracles
Uh, So let the dead bury their dead
Life is but a dream
And in the dream we gotta get ready for bed
Better we look ahead instead
To the ones that survived pray for them too
Coz there grace of God kept them alive
Yes we mourn for the dead and
Will still kill for them
But what about the injured that
Must still rebuild again?
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The love I give to you, you give to me
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The love I give to you, you give to me
To all the people, that never lost someone
Consider the cost of the loss of
A lost daughter or son
These cowards slaughter and run
And to know that there's more than just one
Makes you wanna store up your gun
And withdraw all the funds, but
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The love I give to you, you give to me
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The respect I give to you, you give to me
You know the type, all in your city word up
I know that the dayz ahead are dark
But you can shine the light
That's in your heart
You've got ta see yourself in victory
The love I give to you, you give to me
