Dead Prez - Searchin lyrics

[Verse 1: Stormey] Yeah, let's be honest I know I took more then I gave in the past Based on love and family values, so I know we can last I've been hustlin', hopin', tryin' to stay focused, copin' with life Like a roll of the dice This life we live surrounded in ice There's a promise in it for us But still we gotta keep goin' Everyday that we breath in life God give us chances to show him Take the blessings that he keep giving Use em' to my advantage, he humble, and he forgiving I know the prayer seem distant, but you gotta know he listen You gotta be patient in life, and play your position I done witnessed violent things in life that money can bring Also witness things in life that only family can bring Talk bout fortune and fame Talk bout hunger and pain Talk bout what we need to make this hell one and the same Cursed, we're blessed with the game Cursed, we're blessed with the blame Through all my stress and the pain You Know what. (What?) I'm a make it man [Hook: Erica] I've been searchin' I've been lookin' for love Waiting for the clouds above You made me all that I am And I thank you [Verse 2: Stormey] I don't pray for wealth I pray for health and peace for self to move on Put my heart in this song, try to stay strong and move right along Whether right or wrong, I'm a fight alongside what I believe Long as I'm humble, keep my faith in god is all I need Stay workin' to get my cash, hustlin' I got to get it Bet that I laugh last, blessed with the voice n' vision As God is my witness, my strength and my source to achieve My savior, my light, my life, my fight and right to believe [Hook] [Verse 3: Scott Lo] First of all, your foundation must be God first If you wanna build a life that's worth riskin' it all Suffer me this opportunity to speak, teach, and reach The four corners of the globe The pain runs deep I know, I can see it in your eyes But I'm right here with ya In it though it all, before it's over we'll celebrate In everything, give thanks for This is the will of God and Christ Jesus concernin' you, nothing is too hard for him If you got a heart for him Everything is possible, don't let nothin' stop you We need you, get on your feet soldier Hearts of west colder Many with a chip on they shoulder Leaders don't wanna step up and be what they were put here for With all accountable for what we did, we do, and what we ought to Do for the sake of the future, know that it's not about you It's bigger than money and fame It's bigger than reppin' your hood Taste and see for yourself that it's good
