[00:46.88]When we wash all our pain away
[00:51.23]We say, "Oh, my Lord"
[00:56.56]When we can't make it through the day
[01:01.00]We pray, oh, my Lord
[01:05.98]It's a test coming to my faith
[01:10.91]We pray, oh, my Lord, mmh
[01:16.11]Will my people ever be safe?
[01:20.27]In the land that takes us and breaks us, I can't be sure
[01:26.15]Walking with the Lord, I see footprints
[01:29.12]My mama always told me use my good sense
[01:31.38]Common always looking for the good sense
[01:33.82]Since we all got good in our essence
[01:36.24]In the hood sense, we all good anyway
[01:38.98]That's why you always hear another dollar, 'nother day
[01:41.39]I see the day as a new beginning
[01:43.92]Movement of the people, movement of the women
[01:46.29]To get the Earth spinning in the right direct
[01:48.80]This movie of life, sometimes might project
[01:51.48]Act, scenes that don't seem serene
[01:53.71]I like palo santo, put on Love Supreme
[01:56.14]And get into the being of the great I am
[01:58.42]That's when I get to seeing just how great I am
[02:01.02]Many many times from mistakes, I ran
[02:03.39]But I'm just a cake, let me bake, goddamn
[02:05.94]I pray I don't forsake my man
[02:08.35]And whenever I fall, on faith, I land
[02:10.87]Imperfections, resurrections
[02:13.71]In the mirror staring at God's reflection
[02:16.03]Reflecting on my aggressions
[02:18.50]On my regressions, on my obsessions
[02:20.96]There's a lesson in not feeling less
[02:23.21]And in seeing life itself as a blessing
[02:25.30]When we wash all our pain away
[02:29.11]We say, "Oh, my Lord"
[02:35.09]When we can't make it through the day
[02:38.94]We pray, oh, my Lord
[02:44.05]It's a test coming to my faith
[02:48.51]We pray, oh, my Lord, mmh
[02:53.99]Will my people ever be safe?
[02:58.18]In the land that takes us and breaks us, I can't be sure
[03:03.32]Yeah
[03:04.69]The jubilee of a newer me
[03:06.76]Giving my enemies something new to see
[03:09.18]My community, they be fueling me
[03:11.66]In the struggle of us, there's a unity
[03:14.18]The moral universe stay schooling me
[03:16.61]Will the king of kings really rule in me?
[03:19.05]I'm an instrument, stay in tune with me
[03:21.42]This orchestrated by Kareem, Samora, Boom, and me
[03:24.04]If agape had a Cupid, she'd be shooting me
[03:26.40]This rap here is fear's eulogy
[03:28.94]Escape rooms with glasses of wine
[03:31.51]Just another crutch for my brokeness
[03:33.72]A term that I got for my therapist
[03:36.12]As a black man, I feel I should be sharin' this
[03:38.67]In the hood they say we crazy and we derelicts
[03:41.10]But we needed for our kids and our marriages
[03:43.46]The old folks say we don't do that
[03:45.93]But taking care of self is the new black
[03:48.52]Unconventional ways, unconditional ways
[03:51.06]Mediation, mindfulness, it's just given to praise
[03:53.70]I'm in a phase, all I see is victory
[03:56.06]You on that wave, then come and get with me
[03:58.64]I only want what's meant for me
[04:00.94]And say the things that's sent to me
[04:03.50]In penitentiaries, I met the most enlightened
[04:05.90]Finding the losses, Heaven's excitement
[04:08.61]I write with a force of a kid that wanted to
[04:10.93]Be in The Source, but that changed, of course
[04:13.42]I maintained the sauce and became a boss
[04:15.53]I apologize if I came across
[04:18.01]As judgmental, or self-righteous
[04:20.58]'Cause in you, I see his likeness
[04:22.87]When we wash all our pain away
[04:26.78]We say, "Oh, my Lord"
[04:31.20]When we can't make it through the day
[04:36.55]We pray, oh, my Lord
