If I May
Blackalicious

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Here we go again
Slip into my conscience, come along an take in
A story 'bout a battle in this corner, Satan
Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink

And suddenly disasters and catastrophe
And acting unrationally, reacting savagely
To passionately, bask in everlasting like escapes
From just what it's creating

Jeopardizin' love
Look at all the people that you took advantage of
See your hypnotized, Rom be gone
Take another cup, in consequences lurk

While the reaper got your shirt size
Nigga, wake up
Times overdue for the birth of a power
That the universe grew from

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

You search for the answers outside
Refocus causin' time and time again, backslide
You've noticed times before the presence of that I
But never did submit to it and let it apply
Whatever be his will in this present lifetime
Or essence like mine

Know the blessings you might find
If you let your higher power inside, emerge and apply
To every single thing in your balance
You will truly find, who you really are

Die and become reborn when God is present in your life
Then you can come reap on
And ain't a storm that you can't weather
You got a purpose you was born to create
Destiny is waitin' for you, arms open, take with ya
Knowledge bestowed by the great giver
Lakes, rivers, mountains and steams

Now reality's the dream [Incomprehensible]
No more searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha
It had to hit ya through the struggle and the turmoil
Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above soil

And let the sun shine freely down
At times it looked like it wouldn't
But the plant came to flourish
Now it's standin' on solid ground

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Sun rises like water up in my eyes
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide
Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be
The sun rises like water up in my eyes
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide
Tryna to keep my head up above the ed if I could be
Least, If I may

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe

Come along and reap, I need my song
We're climbin' over
Beneath the sea, march on
Time is almost gone
It's all in me, no, maybe
