《Temple (Album Version)》歌词

[00:04:03] Delivered straight from the temple

[00:04:03] Hip hop ya don't stop

[00:04:03] One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, rock!

[00:04:03] Well as an infant I was born into religion,

[00:04:03] My mother called me Baptist

[00:04:03] But what she forgot to mention

[00:04:03] Was what Baptist meant.

[00:04:03] The story goes God sent his only begotten son

[00:04:03] To make sure that I would have one.

[00:04:03] As I learned in Sunday school,

[00:04:03] He's ........ to disrespect my mother and father would be taboo.

[00:04:03] But as I grew I met a Jew, a Catholic and a Protestant

[00:04:03] And couldn't figure out where Baptist fit.

[00:04:03] Hastily got crazy that ya made me see

[00:04:03] Brother has confronted me with such ambiguity.

[00:04:03] Are you Jehovah, Buddha, or shall I call you Allah?

[00:04:03] All the words for Heavenly Father.

[00:04:03] I just like to be a scholar on the subject called theology,

[00:04:03] So that's how mi figure,

[00:04:03] While they call themselves Christians, used€™a call me ni**a.

[00:04:03] And ...... black hole leaves no control over thought.

[00:04:03] I leave my body to see where the pits

[00:04:03] Go high when the physical takes control.

[00:04:03] No communications with the inner self

[00:04:03] The prize is the otherwise wise, who has spiritual health.

[00:04:03] Got to explain, they had the problems visions of gettin' along with herself,

[00:04:03] Cheap on the corner, cornered herself and becomes a mourner.

[00:04:03] Logic, brothers -

[00:04:03] Ah, yo sista, can Prazwel and Wyclef get some - check it out.

[00:04:03] Delivered straight from the temple,

[00:04:03] Hip hop ya don't stop

[00:04:03] One o'clock, two o'clock, three o'clock, rock!

[00:04:03] Delivered straight from the temple,

[00:04:03] I had no time to sample,

[00:04:03] My cousin's name was Samuel,

[00:04:03] I wasn't allowed to use the turntables,

[00:04:03] My dad was a preacher so rap music was your devilism,

[00:04:03] And if the words€™d say "Thank you, Lord",

[00:04:03] I couldn't listen.

[00:04:03] So I used to sneak to listen to DJ Red Alert,

[00:04:03] To check the competition.

[00:04:03] And DJ Red Alert goes berserk,

[00:04:03] 'Cause as a young lad I had a big rap pad,

[00:04:03] 'Cause he who waited to practice would someday be the greatest guy.

[00:04:03] So I checked them as they flippin'

[00:04:03] Sometimes their pads€™re not slippin'

[00:04:03] They think they rippin' rappin'

[00:04:03] The only 'rappin' they doing is in the room before they packin'.

[00:04:03] You gained the world, sucker

[00:04:03] But you lost your soul.

[00:04:03] The devil brought you us, all you do is sell a foe.

[00:04:03] Life after death could be eternal fire,

[00:04:03] So some get blunted but you're back on earth when it's all over.

[00:04:03] Mama said that blunt was a stun to the brain

[00:04:03] So some say €œI don't smoke€?,

[00:04:03] But on a €€ he sniff coke

[00:04:03] He won the lotto - now he dies of an overdose

[00:04:03] While the bum he picked a hole to sleep, he wanted a deep throat.

[00:04:03] So ask yourself the question €œWho's really maxin'?€?,

[00:04:03] Cause some check in but don't check out and need a Hell or Heaven high

[00:04:03] But to some Earth is Hell, in Heaven's death

[00:04:03] So they pretend to be Hades and kill till there's nothin' left €" ha.

[00:04:03] But I might hit €˜em with a gun that's harder than all guns

[00:04:03] My check from the temple - check the text

[00:04:03] (It€™s got the news to get wreck)

[00:04:03] Can I get a witness? Check the text.

[00:04:03] Get wrecked. Check the text, check the text

[00:04:03] (It€™s got the new s€€ to get wreck), can I get a witness?

[00:04:03] (Check the text), here we go yo

[00:04:03] Well I arrive let me tell you what I see in my third eye.

[00:04:03] Many die they call a battle, they got crucified.

[00:04:03] Justice is righteous in the eyes of the beholder,

[00:04:03] While the younger the better,

[00:04:03] But the older the wiser

[00:04:03] Mama used to read in deep from the Book of Proverbs

[00:04:03] But the bird said the word was absurd, have ya heard?

[00:04:03] Knowledge - I come to teach

[00:04:03] While I increase ya decrease

[00:04:03] Some say peace, but on a street a .45's my piece

[00:04:03] Hallelujah, hallelujah, praise be to thee Jah €.

[00:04:03] - come

[00:04:03] On the nineteentheth of October I remember

[00:04:03] startin' my life on as a natural lever

[00:04:03] Cause I lick one-two-three/four-five-six/seven shots

[00:04:03] While any priest here builds his church on a solid rock.

[00:04:03] Hit me!

[00:04:03] So feel the spirit comin' from the Heaven above.

[00:04:03] (Hey, Pras, how could you be a hood and full of so much love?)

[00:04:03] I said €œIn every man€™s chest there beats a heart

[00:04:03] Hip-hop€™s where it starts, I tried to master the art.

[00:04:03] Come on!"
