WARRIOR SONG(Featuring Alicia Keys)

If I can teach something, so be it Hope somebody might learn something from it Give it back They can't break me and shake me They too fake to come kill me Think they faith this was satan They mistake me I'm filthy Rich off the ghetto madness So now they wanna dead me There's gonna be a murder Confront me The barrels are empty Middle passage I made it I'm from the land of David The nazarene of Bethlehem They had me wrapped in blankets They a bunch of backward gangsters They signing alpha-davids Snitches whose smiling faces Got you go on trial I hate this Hoping my child can see Through this trying to be a good daddy I was there when she was born And she'll be there when I'm buried Kind of weird and it's scary All my years have prepared me What I fear is my temper I see clear into the center Right through a man's soul Straight through his eyes Straight to his heart I'm still alive How did I make it this far? Cause I been high I been low Searching for a way to go Every single night I pray And lord I'm on this battleground Just waiting to be found I guess it's just the warrior's way This is a song for my warriors A warrior's song, ooooh Brave-hearted and strong The definition of a warrior (The definition of a warrior) Gonna keep marching on To the sound of our own beating drums Like king Nasaphite and the British regime I can't cope my existence if hope for younger teens Who lost and they broke Earlier this year I buried my queen In a gold casket, your mother's the closest thing To god that you'll ever have Kid, I'm asking, what would you do At your own mom's funeral Wanna pick her up out of it This can't be real Tellin' my daughter “grandma's gone” But I can't keep still I can't go on Responsible for so many Her last days at the hospital Visits from family Try not to bust shots at nigga Wishin' death on other nigga's mothers ain't right But why mommy, she raised me in the projects alone Her untimely exit from our heavenly body Got me ready to body something quickly Can't be happy, fuck the party She can't party with me So apologize are burning your own soul To the kids with no parents at home Grab a hold This is a song for my warriors A warrior's song, ooooh Brave-hearted and strong The definition of a warrior (warrior) Gonna keep marching on To the sound of our own beating drums (Woh) Fight 'til the fight is over For my peoples I'd die, see When you thought they was soldiers They turned out to be nobodies I think they out to get me Helpless was livin' sinful If you was me all this pain I'm feeling within would've killed you (I'm a warrior) It only makes me stronger But in head it gets darker Who wishin' evil on you Sometimes I wish I was dead But I took heed to the call (I'm a warrior) (Yeah) 'Cause I been high, I been low Searching for a way to go Every single night I pray (I pray) And Lord I'm on this battleground Lost just waiting to be found I guess it's just the warrior's way This is a song for my warriors A warrior's song, ooooh Brave-hearted and strong (Brave-hearted) The definition of a warrior (warrior) Gonna keep marching on To the sound of our own beating drums This is a song for my warriors (for my warriors) A warrior's song, ooooh Brave-hearted and strong (Brave-hearted) The definition of a warrior (The definition of a warrior) Gonna keep marching on To the sound of our own beating drums (Woh) This is to all the warriors Who breath with the heart of a lion To everybody that lost their mother Their father, rest in peace moms My mother's last words“never give up” A true warrior who raised me in the hood In the war I love you girl You know I'll keep marching (Yeah, Yeah, Yeah) We never give up Because I'm a warrior Brave-hearted Brave-hearted
