(Chorus) Welcome to the world young fella You better bring your Steel Umbrella Cuz the raindrops feel like fire Fulfill your desire Look in the mirror, you're the real Messiah C'mon, look in the sky, and the sun ain't yella' You better bring your Steel Umbrella Cuz the raindrops feel like fire Fulfill your desire Look in the mirror, you're the real Messiah C'mon... [Chief Kamachi] Who said life ain't supposed to be foul? Starving, never stroll the grocery isle Wipe the sweat from your brow Grow stronger from denials and trials Let your mind go a thousand miles One loaf of bread can really feed a thousand mouths Gotta learn the secrets in those old ancient files Till than meet adversity with grace and smiles Look in the mirror only put faith in thou Can rule the world and just might take a while Make a Covenant with God and don't break a vow Naked souls, temptation then raped the child Change the channel, Lucifer done broke the dial Bought a brand new TV to watch the globe No gra** gon' grow, crack still cook on the stove Went to the library, guess what book that he chose? Wanna help him and every f**ing crook that he knows (Chorus) [Chief Kamachi] Ayo, thugging awhile, till I had a talk with Brother Bilal You only achieve what your energy will allow And you all high, walking with your head in the clouds Half of your homies laying dead, covered in shroud
Sit on your front porch, dopefiends huddled in crowds Old lady eat cat food, it f** with her bowels It's so sad, picking in the trash for smiles Feel helpless, walk on broken gla** and vials See the world change, we close to 2012 Can't stop the clock, in time it do tell Would we ever see the face of the lamb? At the golden gates, white robe embracing his hand Make your own miracles happen, do what you can Don't be depressed, you will find the power in man Next thing you know, a lot of rich shower the land Don't wait for things to change before making a plan Eh? (Chorus) [Chief Kamachi] Yeah, they say the end is near cuz the seasons is off Black President they still don't believe in the laws No jobs, but they steadily inflating the cost Water or food, two choices making a toss But the Government is promising spaghetti and sauce But it's a black cat at every path that you cross If you're not tested, how will you develop force? You in misery, really need to get a divorce Just look inside your soul and find a spiritual course We want the fast life, Audubon, steering a Porsche It's so ill, middle cla** living off oatmeal Cuz strung out businessmen paying their coke bill I see them in the hood on payday It's crazy, but nowadays nothing really amaze me Little girl is pregnant with Damien's baby The sh** you can't see cuz your third-eye is lazy (Chorus)
