[Intro] (3X) We got soul [Hook] (We got soul) And we're ready for war (We got soul) What you think all of this weaponry's for? (We got soul) And we're ready for war I had a taste of victory before I'm ready for more (We got soul) And we're ready for war (We got soul) What you think all of this weaponry's for? (We got soul) And we're ready for war, because we got soul [Verse 1] Uncage the beast, I think it's time to live My momma wander 'round my dreams and screaming "Find them kids!" We gone, momma, into the further I'mma go diving beyond the drama Into my subconscious trauma 'til my soul's so comma Comma, backspace, this can't be life, silly rat race Started back when white rappers were viewed as bad as black face Kids teased my dad for being kind of crack race Stupid f**ers seeing black and white, you really lack taste My mom did dance to keep us fed, the exotic kind I was to young to understand it wasn't conga line But I was never shamed, not once I learned from all the grind That's probably why I never suited up and Columbined! Better myself to go and hustle anyway I knew A million jobs it took for me to get on stage with you This is that battle cry, welcome to The War Within Pick up your tools and point them back at you, you're born again! [Hook] [Verse 2] Uncage the beast, I think it's time to live My father wander 'round my dreams and screaming "Hide your ribs!" You know they'll shank you My medicine's in the arm and I move around the piranhas Cause all them things you taught us and I don't know how to thank you Pops, I've kept my eyes locked up on the plot Watch the cops and crops and it just never stops I get messages online about if we're Illuminati And I reply to them smiling, all like "f** it kid, you got me!" But truth be told I'm just like you and yours And all that secret society talk is what's distracting you from more Don't let 'em take you down with fairy tales of Masonry Cause most of time it ain't half as true as what you think it be Even the villains have their street teams These needles filled with weak dreams Poking us with sicknesses and bleak jeans This is The War Within, started back in '83 I got soul, so good f**ing luck, on breaking me [Bridge] Looks like another perfect day To live like it's the last I'm just living fast And trying not to miss the past You can see that everything Inside you plays a role So let it take its toll You know, we got soul [Hook]
