Black Messiah (Intro)

June 6th 1989

For God so loved the world
That he gave his only begotten Son
That whosoever believeth
(Will you be there)
A star is born

Born
Onassis

13 years ahead of my peers
Fuck banging and slanging
Rather make dope shit for ears
Dead or in jail
Only two options living in hell
Pen and the pad how I prevail
I set sail
The captain of my future
Using sound recorder on my mommas old computer
My bro was 12
When he became a producer
I was just 14 when I ain't make the team
But fuck it it gave mе steam

How do you respond mentally
Whеn you a bad boy No family
No Way Out
Losing sanity
Urban communities lack opportunity
Facing scrutiny
So Im the voice for people who can't speak up
Emmett Till's tied to a bumper dragged by a pick up
Times ticking Im rushing like Putin
Heres my contribution

You don't want to see me shine nigga
Fine nigga
You better shut yo eyes close them fucking blinds nigga
I paid my damn dues put my fucking time nigga
Im next in line better get yo ass behind nigga
Respect the underground I need the lime nigga
Rather have you dancing in the back Federline nigga
I'll give you all that you ready for
Put so many rappers in they grave
That bitch Drew couldn't bury more

Lack opportunity
Facing scrutiny
So Im the voice for people who can't speak up
Emmett Till's tied to a bumper dragged by a pick up
Times ticking Im rushing like Putin
Heres my contribution

WIll you be there
WIll you be there
When a star is born
When a star is born

WIll you be there
WIll you be there
When a star is born
When a star is born

WIll you be there
WIll you be there
When a star is born
When a star is born
