Bedtime story that rope a dope

Can't believe every story heard

Left and right wing… Same damn bird
Same damn bird
God made a plant, you say dope...
Lock me up, cause I'm dope
I see you, you see me
I struggle, You carefree
You know me, I'm your friend
Your conscience in black skin!
But you don't hear me
You don't hear me
But you see me
But you see me
Not gonna sit here and wait for you to do right by me
Oh, I don't want to I don't want to
But what I'm gone do

Imma alkaline my heart and soul and mind too!
And get Free!

Can't pour no water on a drowning man!
Drowning man, drowning man One more time
Wake up before you fall asleep!
Man did not fall from a religion, but man fell from a dominion
You are a king! And you belong to a kingdom
You Have a gift on the inside of you and that gift that God gave you
Is to be a solution to the problems of this world
Now wake up! Discover your gift and fulfill your purpose in the name of Jesus
I pray that you realize that you are Not a religious creature
But you are a citizen of the kingdom of God
What a tangle web we weave when we lie and deceive
But it's strange none of you silly motherfuckas never ask
Why do they need to lie
And in a web of deception, all you motherfuckas want to be is fly
You been bamboozled, Run amuck, led astray
Pity the fool!
I mean, what did you think was gona happen when nothing happens man?
The bamboozling is continuing because you kept drinking the bamboozle juice!
I'm your mother
I'm your father
I'm your sister
I'm your brother
I'm your mother
I'm your father
I'm your sister
I'm your brother
Can you hear me?
Can you see me?
But you don't hear me
You don't hear me
You don't see me
But you see me
Not gona sit here and wait for you to do right by me
Ooh, I don't want to
I don't want to
What I'm gone do
What I'm gone do
Imma alkaline my heart and soul my mind too!
