Luyện nghe bài hát Raised To Be Lowered

To manifest your dreams before you your fears
To navigate the treachery of self-despair
To find the balance between all you and all you see
To find the patience and the strength it to let it be

To stand amongst the crowd and have the strength to hold own
To throw away the pen and pad and be the poem
To rise hatred to love through seeming contradiction
To seldom take a side and to compliment the friction

To bring about the change within that we can't live
To shift and rearrange and learn to deal with doubt
To voice the victory and ways of self-defeat
To learn the value of, "Yo, fuck the words, just the beat"

To leave the comfort zones of all you to all you feel
To step beyond the void and the unknown is real
To reimagine every obstacle as means
Of honing craft and learn to laugh at failures funny

There has to be some other way to stop the
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be

Each day we sing and pray for guidance the night
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be
I was raised to be
Was I to be lowered?

To not the worshipers to take up all the space
To dance at funerals and grieve when true shows it's face
To meditate upon the things like hair and nails
To find new meaning in your freedom when your kills

To walk the runway on the one day you've lost your stride
To show your face when you feel more inclined to run and
To keep it gutter when you utter, "No, it stop"
Until the ones that point their at get got

You're gonna get got, let niggas get got
Lying on the blacktop you're lying on the not
You're gonna get got, get popped, get
Let these get got, let these niggas get got

There has to be some other way to stop the
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be

Each day we and pray for guidance through the night
I was to be lowered
Was I raised to be
I was raised to be
Was I raised to be

Hallelujah, all these other suckas make me
Inshallah we've come this far, the past can suck my
Blessed be the virgin especially if nice and thick
May your first time be full of respect and not a trick

First communion, as the day you were conceived
Born in Nah, think again, repent and disbelieve
Heaven is between your there lies the trick, deceived
Holy shed once a month until you nurture seed

Was I raised to be
Was I raised to be
Was I raised to be

(Was I raised?)
Was I to be lower?
(Was I raised?)
Was I raised to be
(Was I raised?)
Was I raised to be
(Was I raised?)
Was I to be lower?

(Was I raised?)
Was I to be lower?
(Was I raised?)
Was I to be lower?
(Was I raised?)
Was I raised to be
(Was I raised?)
Was I raised to be
