Blessed Are Those

Intro/chorus It goes: life, difficult times, and mad crimes Some pay the price, while others refine Blessed are those who struggle -- God loves you And wisdom is the principle thing for kings and queens (repeat 2x) Many alliance will end, it's like a sad song From a violin, trapped like daniel's in the lion's den Tryin to pie-rce the iron skin, of leviathan Souls blowin in the violent winds God help us, if we die in sign, I hear the trials In the cries of men, that's when the riot begins Like things never get better, we forever Servin ebekenezer, since the days of our ancestors Slaves to a mad pleasure, building great architectures Sharp dressers, smart professors Start my lecture, I build lyrics like a art director Show it to you like the film projector Blessed are those who struggle, from day to day we all hustle Comin home with sore muscles, and scarred faces Scuffed knuckles, we all share the same trouble Seperated couples, sometimes it seem like There's no escapin, the clutches of satan Spendin years in state pens, awaitin patient Dreams of a scholarship, ended by a hollowtip Politics and number slip Chorus Once, shoved in ships, now we bloods and crips Thugs with clips, niggaz who love the clicks Hit the clubs and shit, so they can rub their hips Hugs and flicks, niggaz with drugs and whips Cash rules this rotten apple, they got a worm in it Corrupt sinners, in my man's jeep With the windows tinted, sippin guinness Observin all the clinics, and liquor spots They make me lick a shot through the rooftop I never seen the glory In the ghetto it's the same story Ciggarette butts and cold coffee, black faces And white mouths, they cry out, for the white house Ain't no wealth shared, it's welfare And poor health care, self scared It's senseless, the way they got our black princess On public a*sistance to end our existance Chorus It's a blessing... to struggle It's a blessing... (repeat 2x) Yeahhyeahhh, it's a blessing, just a blessing It's a blessing... *fades*
