Tekst piosenki
Intro:
The soul is locked and God is the peep hole
God ain’t the key no the key is the people
Power to the peaceful not to the people
Cause some of these people is evil
Chorus A: Sing the Song of Songs like Solomon singing his Father’s song X4
Verse 1: Billy Briscoe
He tries to holler at me, I barely ever listen
And wonder why I find myself in some crazy positions
He’s trying to teach me because he can see what I can become
He’s trying to reach me but he can’t see where I’m coming from
I mean, just because I’m young, it doesn’t mean I’m dumb
I peep that silver and gold, I’m figuring ways to get it done
See a part of me listens when they whisper “come and join us”
Schemin’ a lick, plotting a rip, picking a couple of coins up
While I’m doing all this creeping, I’m having some trouble sleeping
Sippin’ on violence, eating wickedness til I’m sick I’m way to deep in
I needed to heed my Father’s teaching obey my mother’s words
My ignorance set a trap for me I need to be that bird
Please guide me through the darkest times unto the dawning sun
Even if I get lost sometimes or my feet stumble some
I will guard your instructions until the day I see your face
Drape my soul in honor, crown my head with grace
Chorus A:
Sing the song of songs like Solomon singing his Father’s
Chorus B:
We poppin proverbs we poppin we poppin proper proverbs
Careful what you heard from the people
And these words keep you from their evil
Like there’s an angel in a proverb
Say em to your devils let them see if they can stop her
Wisdom of the Fathers Taught to their daughters
Then taught by their daughters So listen to your mothers
And to wisdom you’ll give honor
Wisdom is a Woman no matter what you call her
Me see her me see me smaller
Pathways of peace from her speech they holler
Streets hear her speak when she’s breaking up brawlers
She’s in the reach of the hand donating dollars
Small and meek by her side look taller
Fruit from her tree feeds fool and scholar
Man isn’t free if he don’t wear her collar
So incomplete the philosophers draw her
Awe of Gd is where Shlomo saw her
Chorus
I adore you my Lord my refuge
If they test me best believe they test you
My deeds were correct so they’re blessed too
Death round my neck I was rescued
Guess who? Yes you
Enemies slayed from the stones that I hurled
Rocks you laid to foundation the world
The world, the planets, galaxies that swirl
Emeralds and rubies and diamonds and pearls
Set in a crown on the head of mankind
Tell me what are we, that you’ve kept us so in mind
The world at our feet like we’re little less than divine
Your handiwork’s complete but sometimes I feel blind
Abandoned and stranded with no respite
My ancestors chanted these same prayers in the night
Like: –
Outro: Don’t gain the world and lose your soul
Wisdom is better than silver and gold
