paroles de chanson The First Agreement (Intro) - Dizzy Wright , Nikkiya

(Manny scott) intro
The word is not simply a scribbled symbol or a spoken sound
The word is not like a roaring lion that no one really fears
No, the word has power
And it can be you most trusted friend
Or your most terrible foe
You see like a seed the word gives life
Like a lamp the word gives light
Like a mirror the word reflects
Like water the word washes
Like fire the word cleanses
Like a hammer the word shatters
Like a sword the word cuts
Ohhh but like medicine the word heals
And like a consular the word comforts
You see the word is alive
And it is waiting, waiting for you to summon it like a soldier
And send it forth into battle
So speak

(Dizzy wright) verse 1
They tell me i sound like a prophet
Feedin my niggas with knowledge
Mistakin theres been to much faith in
Thorough nigga business we keepin it solid
Im ready to teach and learn
Educatin for this heaven on earth
Overcomin all my family doubts
The man of the house
No man to observe
Shit can get worse but we pull it through
Im illuminatin that entire equation creatin
I no you cant see it right now
But im teachin my niggas to better communicators
They dumbin us down one by one huntin us down
I try not to sound like a preacher
But if our daughters and sons are kings and queens
They have to be prepped to be leaders
Following order and steps the man with the plan
Gets most the respect
So im bowing down with my hands together forever
Prayin for anyone whose losin their strength
We in this together right
Theres reasons for you to believe and inspire
When found in what i was reading
And now i feel like its what i should be teaching
Started with the first agreement

(Nikkiya) chorus
Higher it may humble
My heart is always open
Cause i understand
Behind every great man
Is some situation
As i look into your eyes
I see the pain that ive caused
And so i apologize

(Dizzy wright) verse 2
To my single parents thats young
Mommas not holdin her tongue
Its a shame but even through all of your pain
I hope you teach your child how to love
Im lovin the feelin we doin it right
For my niggas thats loosin they sight
You cannot criticize anything that you do
If youre always a student to life
A product of truth
Sad part if its hard to be yourself
You apart of it to
Now im breaking it down
So its understanding me
Philosophy comes with the proof
Success requires a push
Straight forward is the only way to look
I head if you wanna hide something from a nigga
The best way to do it is to put it in a book
So they make this shit difficult
Imma talk about the principles
In general and individuals
You ballin, you made it, you happy, you flexin
Every rappers story sounds identical
Sink in a better life
Theres reasons for you to believe in
I picked up a book and was readin
And now i feel like its what i should be teachin
Started with the first agreement

(Nikkiya) chorus
Higher it may humble
My heart is always open
Cause i understand
Behind every great man
Is some situation
As i look into your eyes
I see the pain that ive caused
And so i apologize
