In “Eat 2 Live”, Tha God Fahim advises his brothers and sisters to prioritize a healthy diet and to be aware of the predatory, damaging nature of the American junk food industry.
The title of this track is likely a reference to the two-book series How To Eat To Live by Nation of Islam leader Elijah...
[Intro]
Uh, yeah
This is for all my people man, you know what I'm saying?
You gotta start eating better
So, you know—so we can promote more positive energy
If we eat fucked up things, you know what I'm saying, that's one of the reasons for fucked up thoughts, you know what I'm saying?
Cause you are what you eat, literally
What, you think that shit just go right through you?
Uh
[Chorus]
I gotta eat to live, look at what they feeding our kids
They don't want the righteous ones to give
I gotta eat to live, yo, they ain't giving me dibs
Food for thought and knowledge for the kids
They throw shades on your dreams and tell you it is what it is
Looking for my exit out the biz
I gotta eat to live, and I ain't talking pork barbeque ribs
I'm talking bout the food for the kids
[Verse 1]
You are what you eat, that's no lie
Bacterias and chemicals not seen with naked eyes
Think about it when you asking for them extra fries
And I ain't saying that I'm innocent, it's cause I'm not
No nutritional benefit in a lot
Of the things we eat, just because we want it on the spot
Five minutes later, the food ain't even hot
No need to be rude, but we eating poisonous crop
Genetically modified, you could believe it or not
Health is real wealth, smell it outta the pot
[Chorus]
I gotta eat to live, look at what they feeding our kids
They don't want the righteous ones to give
I gotta eat to live, yo, they ain't giving me dibs
Food for thought and knowledge for the kids
They throw shades on your dreams and tell you it is what it is
Looking for my exit out the biz
I gotta eat to live, and I ain't talking pork barbeque ribs
I'm talking bout the food for the kids (Uh)
[Verse 2]
We've seen people come, we've seen people go
Of health issues that was way before they time, yo
But at the same time, we all just tryna shine, yo
That's why I had to put this in a rhyme, though
Beware of all of the shit that you feed your mind, bro
'Cause you might not wake in the morning, Alonso
Sugary drinks, no water up in your console
Some of us need to make some changes pronto
I sit and think about things I fed my temple
Your body is a shrine, so take care of them initials
I write another line to expose your GMO
If we don't eat the right things, then how can we fully grow?
[Chorus]
I gotta eat to live, look at what they feeding our kids
They don't want the righteous ones to give
I gotta eat to live, yo, they ain't giving me dibs
Food for thought and knowledge for the kids
They throw shades on your dreams and tell you it is what it is
Looking for my exit out the biz
I gotta eat to live, and I ain't talking pork barbeque ribs
I'm talking bout the food for the kids
