Black Thought - Masters of Our Fate lyrics

[Hook] Now we are the masters of our fate That the task that which has been it's not above our strength That its pangs and toils are not beyond our endurance As long as we have faith in our goals And unconquerable will power Salvation will not be denied us! Salvation will not be denied us! We are the masters of our fate! [Verse 1: Raekwon] The time has come, I just begun, this is designer rum My wallet got flowers on it, k**er cowards from milan The stolen land where gold chains control a man 300 holdin hands, stolen grams I play the fan, and wave and leave that n***a for dead, or should I save him? Spittin out phlegm, no, just grave him I remember days I used to work for n***as, eat jerk with n***as Buyin whippids, laughing at jokes and try to flip Clip is loyal, fly spoil on the block, display royal Even though we go back to royals, black oils Live as ever, can't tell me nothing Whatever this thing of ours is empowered by my n***as who pumping 24 hours of sling motion, wave brush Ya'll knew my hair was the ocean Running through the building just nego-tion Some of the creeps knew me very well Knew he would sell, knew he was potent [Hook] [Verse 2: Black Thought] Ok, bridges I burned some, lessons I learned some Money I spend some, lent some, earned some My eyes tell a tale of the hell I returned from Spark up a L for the homies I haven't heard from Burn when the urge come I'm living lurge(large) Never chilling on the curb, just a villian on the verge, son My tenth shot is as official as the third one Second one, first one Worse come, the worst run When I was pushed out of the womb the earth spun The only way to describe this is inertia Some rappers think they could try me, Who the first up? I don't guarantee no survivers, n***a surfs up Yeah, soul on ice, courage and sacrifice, hold on tight And save your laughter for the afterlife These chumps thinkin they good, ain't even half as nice Your fate will be a one-way ticket to paradise [Hook]
