Lauryn Hill - Final Hour lyrics

Uh uh uh
And yo uhh, uhh (Like fungus among us)
Yo, yo (Haha) , uh

Yo, I treat this like my thesis
Well-written topic, broken down into pieces
I introduce then produce, words so profuse
It's abuse how I juice up this beat
Like I'm deuce
Two people both equal like I'm Gemini
Rather Simeon
If I Jimmy on this lock I could pop it
You can't stop it
Drop it, your whole crew microscopic
Like particles while I
Make international articles
And on the cover
Don't discuss the baby mother (Nah)
Business, I been in this third
LP you can't tell me
I witness first handed, I'm candid
You can't stand it respect demanded
And get flown around the planet
Rock Hard like granite or steel
People feel Lauryn Hill from
New-Ark to Israel and this is real
So I keep makin' the street's ballads
While you lookin' for dressin' to
Go with your tossed salad

You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour

I'm about to change the focus from
The richest to the brokest
I wrote this opus, to reverse the hypnosis
Whoever's closest to the line's gonna win it
You gonna fall trying to ball while
My team win the pennant
I'm about to begin it, for a minute
Then run for senate
Make a slum lord be repentant
Give his money to kids to spend it
And then amend it
Every law that ever prevented
Our survival since our arrival
Documented in The Bible
Like Moses and Aaron, things gon' change
It's apparent
And all the transparent gonna be seen through
Let God redeem you, keep your deen true
You can get the green too
Watch out what you cling to
Observe how a queen do
And I remain calm reading the 73rd Psalm
'Cause with all that’s going on I
Got the world in my palm

You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour

Now I be breaking bread
Sipping Manischewitz wine
Pay no mind, party like it's 1999
But when it comes down to
Ground beef like Palestine say your rhymes
Let's see if that get you out your bind
Now I'ma get the mozzarella
Like a Rockafeller
Still be in the church of Lalibela
Singing hymns a cappella
Whether posed in Mirabella in Couture
Or collecting residuals from off The Score
I'm making sure I'm with the 144
I've been here before this ain't a battle
This is war
Word to Boonie, I make salat like a Sunni
Get diplomatic immunity in
Every ghetto community
Had opportunity went from Hoodshock
To Hood chic but it ain't what you cop
It's about what you keep
And even if there are leaks
You can't capsize this ship
'Cause I baptize my lips every
Time I take a sip

You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
You can get the money, you can get the power
But keep your eyes on the Final Hour
