Sons of Yusuf, Shafiq Husayn - The Balance lyrics
[Sons of Yusuf, Shafiq Husayn - The Balance lyrics]
Just came back from Abu Dhabi
You know how I be
Just finished doing Wudu', you know how we do
Methodman gave us some sweet advise, aha
And Shafiq told us don't let
Them take away your Deen
Muhammadin Rasul'Allah
Who gave us the name The Base?
Ask Miguel L chavarrio and Jay Electronica
First we were the Abrahams
Now we're the Muhammadans
We back, with another bomb again
Its all in the music
This is Dove Society, Creative Minorities
We're all Sons of Yusuf
We doing this for our ancestors
Who would travel many miles
Just to come back home with enough
Sugar to last us till Fajr
We're not here to raise any gang members
We're raising artists and scholars
We're here to inspire
We gon' name them after Moses and Muhammad
From South Central to Casablanca
We're gon' fulfill the promise
You all have one thing in common
All you scientists and doctors
You think you know everything
Earth, wind, and fire
Bani Adam, born during a war with Saddam
Came from the home of survivors
Where we're known as modest
I needed a mic to speak about the system
No politics, the mantiq, the logical
And about the prophets peace be upon them
And I'ma do, everything I can
To spread good Will like Nas would do
Be like Ali
They can't stop you if God's with you
Banks they are robbing us
Materialism they offer you
So I'm on that 2pacalypse now
That Moroccan-ish vibe
I spit that Arabic flow
That miraculous feeling whenever I'm bowing
I know, all of this goodness ain't promised
I still done made a big promise
Honest and truthful I hope, inshaAllah
I hope you catching up
My time zone's different
You're meant to be carrying your
People on your back
But how they treat they're
Own kind like that? Fk it
We all have something in
Common we're all dying
You all have one thing in common
All you scientists and doctors
You think you know everything
Earth, wind, and fire
You know how I be
Just finished doing Wudu', you know how we do
Methodman gave us some sweet advise, aha
And Shafiq told us don't let
