Dead Prez - No Way As The Way lyrics

[Hook] My way might not be your way But it’s okay It’s alright, your way might not be my way But it’s okay It’s alright [Stic.man] Yea, I used to go to church But the church didn’t quench my thirst Mama taught me to put god first But she never tried to block my search I was curious, young but serious Why's religion so mysterious Why is black life so hard? They say you’re not supposed to question God Well is it okay to question the pastor? Was it pa**ed down from the slave-master? It was only the truth I was after But I never could get a straight answer So I couldn’t be late to the sermon Put down the bible, then I start learning About life, didn’t know where the path would lead But I had to get off my knees [Hook] [Stic.man] I build with the fire that’s in us Only God within us, it’s no limits Study the metu neter from chemic Also I remembered Smoke herb with the Rastafarians Who my locks became a vegetarian Following the tao, filling what the bible lacks Jewels being handed to a innocent child My mind is a Buddhist temple, the truth is simple I try to be principle Walking with a warrior spirit It ain’t nothing like learning from first hand life experience I’m a realist, that’s all I deal with Respect the truth, that’s all I build with A child of the universe My religion is life and it’s just as valid I strive for balance [Hook] [M-1] I gotta admit, I don’t know End to end which way it’s gonna go Why we sit by the project window? And started living off the land with my kin folk Is there even a master plan? An unseen hand? Is God a man? Some say that’s sacrilegious Same folks selling us lies about Christmas Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny Just so the capitalists can make money They say God will take care of it But you a terrorist if you say the same thing in Arabic It’s so hypocritical It’s a miracle, listen to the Mexican spirituals Weighed in the water, I’m following Mr. Minute That turn I’m paying for my freedom I’m heading for the border [Hook: x3]
