Shateish - The Truth lyrics

[Verse 1: Blu] A black man said his name was Apollo Creed Born as a novel seed in the land of a thousand kings My third eye forever open, living out my dreams Climbing down the mountain to drink water from a baller stream No taps in my system, my land-line clean My bloodline reconnected under my family tree Was it an atom or Adam? Science or religion? Was it the spirit in man or molecules in him? Beer in my hand till I can't stand the system I walk through ghetto alleys like the titans through the valley Turn the wisdom into a tooth in my mouth And spit the Judas out Producing songs like farms to put my music out Fruits of my labor, vegetables and turntables Bringing day with the night Watching the light cross stage you The future bit the computer 'fore it chopped up the snake 'Cause they say, apple a day keeps the doc away Truth [Chorus: Shateish] Running through the wind and hear some lies I hear them cry Blood shading my eyes Truth is In the midst of the darkest hours Crazy changing faces within them towers Truth is [Verse 2: Blu] Yo, Jésus, got some water, need some grape juice I bowed my head and the crown fell out my slave roots That n***a Blu moved Giza to Mount Olympus Now I fix a pyramid every time I count figures Kissing Venus with a Visa Sitting on Chichen Itza It's the heart I told her It's the heart that keeps me living Turn the mirror to a prism Saw the zenith through the ceiling If you live in a gla** house, buy a surround system This is crack, play it too loud, your house won't make it back Paint the White House black Rearrange the whole map I swam under the ocean Found Atlantis and a poem Left a rap book in Pomona I could take the planet over Told a soldier if he finds it He should take it home and rhyme it And I did, Blu adventures of the gods and the titans The truth [Chorus: Shateish] Running through the wind and hear some lies I hear them cry Blood shading my eyes Truth is In the midst of the darkest hours Crazy changing faces within them towers Truth is Truth is
