[Verse 1: Grande Marshall] In the grand scheme of things what you know Who you are, what you worth, but where you going What it is what it will be What it would, what it could be What's some dreams, what it should be Caught up in the glamor and the glory Heaven and hell on earth, we living in purgatory Who trade the slaves Only difference is we getting richer Generational gaps still kept them chains on us n***as Faithful to the end, down since birth Saieed if you don't mind let me take you to church Caught the holy ghost writing this Feeling it in my spirit only ghosts are writing this You see, you'd rather hit the block with me Phenomenon, anomaly potentially divine prophecy Come on rock with me I had that sh** that made salieda two step in the living Two years ago I had that two step right in the kitchen Boil it, mixing, oil it, flip it bu*ter soft, bu*terscotch Hold it, sniff it, Something about these riches Can't believe I lived this But As long as I ain't go to college they'll tell me I'm a statistic These n***as say it's more than music trust me I don't hear it What's behind that beat, what's behind that voice, n***a what's behind them lyrics
