Stickin’ needles in my arteries but I can’t feel itīut I got a real big spirit’, I’m fearless, I’m fearless You superstitious? Throw salt over your shoulders Watch niggas play the game like the lakers Who wrote the Bible, who wrote the Qur’an?Įverything on the planet we preserve and can itĮatin’, deletin’, ruin, trying to get paper Huh, can you survive, against all odds, now? Man a heal dem broken bones in the bush with the wed mudĬan you milk cows, even though you drive cars Lyrics : Damn you for trusting me Whats wrong with you Ill work for nothing less. The average man can’t prove of most of the thingsĪnd find out the root of the truth that you seek ofĪnd the rich get stitched up, when we get cut Paroles de la chanson Patience interprétée par Damian Marley. Now the earth is round if the shape change again The earth was flat if you went too far you would fall off Huh, can you predict the future, can you see storms, coming? We growing wiser, are we just growing tall?Ĭan you read thoughts, can you read palms? Huh, we born not knowing, are we born knowing all? That print in my soul and I will forever own Lord Solomonic linage whe dem still can’t defeatĪnd them coulda never clone, my spiritual DNA Will never move east and feel like they could be at homeīut a where dem ago flee when the monster is fully grown? Put the worst on display so the world can seeĪnd that’s all they will ever show so the ones in the west
Some of the worst paparazzis I’ve ever seen and I ever known Of the little kids, stereotyping the image of the imagesĪnd this is what the image is, you buy a khaki pantsĪnd all of a sudden you say a Indiana JonesĪn’ a thief out gold and thief out the scrolls
