I sing praise on high
from down low
remmebering still faces
creeping crawling
making cases
lustfilled images escape mind
just to reach hearts sillouette
third eye no see
what this life has been for me
cause i found places on high
to hide
fallen soldiers ride
angels come at dawn seeking
heads bowed
we know a call before sunrise
waits for no one
but we still sleep
spoken word keeps raising the bar
hip hop art traces time
little known voices whisper
ears pause listening
these are true believers tawkin death to life
cause now we sing praises on high
from down low
keep me wake some pray
my life 's at stake
momma's cry for daddy's sake
children at play no more blind
they speak death to life
from cradles to grave
visions no compromise
words been heard now entertain
thoughts long enough to get at me from an mc's mic
to spinners scratchin tryin to wake the lost soul of another brother
wit a gatt tryin to get in
no bodies in chalk lines tonight
sing praises on high
from down low
keep this flow
speak life in stages
from crack fiend dreams
of never seeing smoke rise in pipes again
to abused women no more fear of men walking by
sing praises
still waters rise deeper and deeper
this is where it begins
another whisper in ear
do you hear spoken word
come to life
come to life
come to life
now sing praises on high
from down low
