Now theres a time to live and theres a time to die
And when that time it comes you'll ask the reason why
Where have I been what have I done
Has it come to pass to know the righteous son
Cause the tune of the living it has been declined
By the many lost souls who just can't hear this rhyme
And I do recall that with the rise and fall
Of the nations generations who have wanted it all
There has been the money the honeys and the part times
and the passions of the flesh with it may crimes
That are a greed indeed that they do feed and breed
But there is another whose a brother for our lives did bleed
Cause there is a time to cast stones to hone the seeds sown
And build a new home for them hip hop bones
Just come with me as I do declare
The generations that follow will be well aware
Cause this is his calling and its destined to all
We in the thick of it so quicken it repent ya'll
Cause there is a time to gain and there is a time to loose
And when that lesson it is revealed and you still choose to refuse
You should inspect it correct it take effect and elect it
Redirect all your efforts cause with this dialect its
stemmed from the wisdom and the insights gained
That are derived from his suffering and all of his pain
Cause you can win some and loose some
And give some and know some
The wisdom of his son has secured what is destined
Cause this is how it is and for your sake you should take that
Redirect all your efforts and the rest is the payback
Cause there ain't nothing more important than the lives of your loved ones
There aint nothing I be doing except my chasing his kingdom
Cause this is how it is and this I declare
So you brothers and sisters yeah you better beware
