Show & Prove - Inspectah Deck

[Chorus: Sample  (Inspectah Deck)] 
The power of God's in you (show and prove) 
The power of God's in you (show and prove) 
The power of God's in you (show and prove) 
True  The time has come through 
Chose the few  must show and prove 

[Intro: Inspectah Deck *in the the background of the chorus*] 
Yea  this is the power  true power 
Showin and provin 

[Inspectah Deck] 
I once asked God to forgive for my sins 
Bent on my knees pleadin to be heavenly cleansed 
Said the Holy Ghost changed the ways and actions of men 
When I stood, I felt the same as if I just walked in 
I was twelve at the time, held nines, held mines 
A frail mind, criminal thoughts well-designed 
Then the Older Gods put me on, on how to rock this 
Maintain, 360, lord and live prosperous 
His jewel was priceless, keep the cypher righteous 
Bare in mind, God, some of your own won't like this 
I'm mentally scarred, recooperatin from abrasure 
Fooled by interpretations made from a traitor 
It's in my nature, I was taught, that's the first law 
Obtain the food, clothin and the shelter that I search for 
The fire in my eyes is hot as Earth's core 
What hurts more, the fact that we still dirt poor 
In hard times force crimes out of honest man 
And most fiend to see the so-called promised land 
Sun of Man, knowledge, wisdom and understand 
that it's time to take matters in our own hands 

[Chorus] 

[Inspectah Deck] 
The wicked ways of the world can't escape sin 
I'm facin masses gun on the plantation 
Seen source from home yet I'm still caved in 
Cuz 9000 miles is such a long way to swim 
and many die tryin to survive the next mile 
Famillies was raised as slaves and exiled 
I learned it as a child, knowledge be the key 
to unlock your brain and set your mindstate free 
It's true, the times come through, chose the few 
Show and prove, the power of God's in you 
or remain a savage in pursuit of happine
