| There’s a season for everything
|
| A time for every occupation of the heaven
|
| A time for givin' birth
|
| A time for dyin'
|
| A time for for plannin'
|
| A time for uprooted that which was planted
|
| A time for killin'
|
| A time for healin'
|
| A time for knockin' down
|
| A time for buildin'
|
| A time for tears
|
| A time for laughter
|
| A time for mournin'
|
| A time for dancin'
|
| A time for throwin' stones away
|
| A time for gatherin' them up
|
| A time for embracin'
|
| A time to refrain from embracin'
|
| A time for searchin'
|
| A time for losin'
|
| A time for keepin'
|
| A time for throwin' away
|
| A time for tearin'
|
| A time for sewin'
|
| A time for keepin' silent
|
| A time for speakin'
|
| A time for lovin'
|
| A time for hatin'
|
| A time for war
|
| A time for peace
|
| So what does a man gain for the efforts that he makes?
|
| I contemplate the task
|
| 'The Lord giveth, the Lord taketh away'
|
| Thy horse is a spirit waitin' me near they graves
|
| A ghost rider leaps out on the saddle of it
|
| Then the horse begins runnin'
|
| Upward beyond an orange summit
|
| That same horse saddled in my cousin and billions of dozens
|
| Before their bones begin crumblin'
|
| To their grave from the mother’s stomach
|
| Well, my nephew he wrote one
|
| To that bowl sun, his mother followed him
|
| Way up into the outer realms
|
| Where the clouds are crowded wit men
|
| At night the goons are prowlin' for gems
|
| There’s place for grandparents
|
| A far advanced planet
|
| Where dreams go, where Kings and Queens souls
|
| Where everything seems slow
|
| 2Pac moves in that dark, Biggie is seein' at our city
|
| It’s misty; |
| Jam Master Jay is in that haze
|
| Big L as well, he dwells wit Big Pun in that Kingdom
|
| And J. Dillinger and the millions of souls
|
| Many more will have to go, reason why? |
| I don’t know
|
| You try to stay focus, watchin' for that day approaches
|
| You got the coverage of the Lord’s judgment
|
| The blood rinse off your soft body
|
| Then placed in the arms of your mommy
|
| She placed you in a potty
|
| Fast forward, you in a staircase in your lobby
|
| Watchin' fiends goin' out on apartment 5-D
|
| Well I know this crackhead name Brother Lord
|
| Always watchin' him huggin' the floor
|
| Many get high and many souls have to fly
|
| The Bible says we all have to die
|
| You look for reasons, I don’t know why
|
| This is where the ghetto spirits carve tonight
|
| No owls in flight, no sound in sight
|
| As we float like a cloud thru the dark light
|
| Barkin' of buncha old worn out dogs nobody wants
|
| Hounds from hell, the starvin' night haunts
|
| The flesh is unveiled, pure spirit unbothered by gravity
|
| A body weight to a Godly place
|
| Then drift into the internal night
|
| As they take the eternal flight
|
| They see your majesty, the Gatekeeper
|
| The great weepers, the grave’s deeper
|
| And the night is frostbit
|
| So long back to the darkness
|
| That’s enough, your majesty, that’s enough
|
| Shhhhh… You’re sworn into secrecy, say no more
|
| But Father…
|
| No one must know about the hidden door
|
| Close the door and move out the way
|
| Close the door |
