Exile - A Man lyrics

[Intro] So many people, that wanna know my opinion on the whole situation, but... [Hook](x2) A man, a man, a man, a man [Verse] I wonder Who do you believe in? I know it ain't me I hope it ain't a priest or who you see on TV I hope it ain't your poppa, partner, he only raised you And I know it ain't your mom, even though that's who you came through I'm asking who you pray to, some believe in angels Some believe in one God, some believe in Jesús Some believe in all of it, and I don't mean a part of it ain't true I know that someone started it, and I know it ain't you The creator of them blue skies The great blue sea, or hey me, a cool guy Who few relate to like, I'm confused too, what does a Jew do What does a black man in Iran who's never heard of Jesús choose And who do you choose, the heart said the youth, the mind said the truth The blind led the blind here to heaven with a sign saying 'I choose you' But left you behind, like no one can explain it It's like one religion can't contain it And I ain't the man that's tryna change it, I just want answers Live no cameras, f** the propaganda Many souls stranded cause they took a book for granted Some planted seeds to feed the mind peace over greed I just keep the truth that I read World on their knees while their innocence bleeds And you keep funding wars with money from your source The shame is all ours, but God, I'm all yours, save me Before the doors close and them horns blown And I'm alone in my grave thinking maybe I shoulda prayed more for peace, love, and unity Between you and me, no matter who you choose to be Pop telling me that, the m**ms won't make it And the m**ms telling me my pop won't make it Yet they both praise Him, night and day raise His Name Until they day he came back to claim them Is one gon' save them? And another take them? Doubt it They telling me I shouldn't live without it Belief, relief for the doubters, it keeps me clouded Confused while I'm doing the knowledge, but my God said choose I choose you, who do you choose? I hope it ain't me, 'cause I'm just an MC [Hook](x2) [Verse]
