If I May - Blackalicious

Erinn Anova] (Chorus) 
Come along and reap 
I need my song 
We're climbin' over 
Beneath the sea 
March on 
Time is almost gone 
It's all in me 
No maybe 

[Gift Of Gab] 
Here we go again 
Slip into my conscience, come along an take in 
A story bout a battle, in this corner, Satan 
Cunning, baffling, and jumping into half the drink 
And suddenly disasters and catastrophe 
And acting unrationally 
Reacting savagely 
To passionately 
Bask in everlasting like escapes from just what its creating 
Jeopardizin' love 
Look at all the people that you took advantage of 
See your hypnotized 
Rom be gone, take another cup 
In consequences lurk 
While the reaper got your shirt size 
Nigga wack up 
Times overdue for the birth of a power that the universe grew from 

(Chorus 2X) 

[Gift Of Gab] 
You search for the answers outside 
Refocus causin' time and time again, backslide 
You've noticed times before the presence of that "I" 
But never did submit to it and let it apply 
Whatever be his will in this present life time 
Or essence like mine 
Know the blessings you might find 
If you let your higher power inside 
Emerge and apply to every single thing in your balance 
You will truly find 
Who you really are 
Die and become reborn 
When God is present in your life than you can come reap on 
And ain't a storm that you can't weather 
You got a purpose you was born to create 
Destiny is waitin' for you 
Arms open, take with ya 
Knowledge bestowed by the great giver 
Lakes, rivers 
Mountains and steams 
Now reality's the dream wraitha 
No more searchin' for truth that was always wit' cha 
It had to hit ya through the struggle and the turmoil 
Ya soul was planted and it sprouted out above soil 
And let the sun shine freely down 
At times it looked like it wouldn't 
But the plant came to flourish 
Now it's standin' on solid ground 

(Chorus 2X) 

[Lateef] 

Sun rises like water up in my eyes 
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide 
Tryna to keep my head above the ed if I could be 

[Lateef & Erinn Anova] 

The sun rises like water up in my eyes 
I'm watchin' changing times but like a changing tide 
Tryna to keep my head up 
Above the ed if I could be 
Least 
If I may 

(Chorus 4X)
