In Time

"Do you believe?"

"I believe"

In time, in time

In time this rhyme'll be more than just a fantasy

A Black man'll be the man to claim Presidency

Is it hard to see?

So try to see as i see

In time i see a better Black reality

It took one man to open the door, yep!

He let in one million more

And i don't think that this country knows

What the hell that it's in for

A Black reign, to tough to tame (to tame)

Enough to blow the other man's brain (man's brain)

Things just won't be the same (the same)

It's gonna be a whole new game (a whole new game)

New lessons will be taught

Meaningless fights will not be fought

An attempt to save some lives

Spreading out more peaceful vibes

See that less drugs will be sold

So a man can live to grow old

Instead of being left in the cold to rot

'Cause he got stopped by a small white rock

I hope in time things change

And that i'm around to see that stage

In time my brother

In time my brother

In time my brother

In time

Bible in the closet collecting dust (dust)

Mama on crack, now who ya gonna trust (trust)

Daddy, daddy drinking that Vodka and Rum (rum)

Guzzling down that One Fifty One (One!)

Churchless people are running too (Two!)

Preparing themselves for the second coming (Three!)

Sign of the times i see some (see some)

Angels in the sky, (look!) i wanna be one

Living in darkness, find the light (light)

Afraid to play this record 'cause you fear the truth (truth)

I know that you know you aint living right (right)

The holy scriptures provide the proof (proof)

Below the heavens and above sea level (level)

In time my brother, I'm trying ta tell ya

In time my brother, In time

In time my brother, In time

Everybody thinks Q-Tip is odd

'Cause holy, holy Q-Tip speaks of God

The changes of time arranges a rhyme

Rhymers (?) like Aarons rod

You can care less about what i'm saying

So i'll pray for you when i start praying

I'm a sinner, you're a sinner

Get off the bandwagon and repent your sins

I don't wanna push my beliefs on you

But you think about it and see if it's true

I'm telling you, Do what ya do

See if ya last for the broadcast

'Cause it's on the way

Preachers preach about us almost every day

These bag-a-bon(?) shoes are longing to stray

But i'm a bag-a-bag-bon(?)

'Cause i won't pay

Clock that clock, I'm clocking mine

Better watch out, it's coming in time

In time (In time)

In time my brother In time (in time)

In time my brother In time (in time)

In time my brother In time (in time)

I said

In time my brother In time

In time my brother In time

In time my brother In time

In time my brother In time
