Intro: Guru
doing it in the house like this
going out to the lost souls
doing this for you and yours
comin` straight to you from the Guru and the crew
Chorus: Guru
to the lost souls
I hope you find your way someday
that`s why I sit and I pray
for the lost souls
I hope you find your way someday
that`s why I sit and I pray
Verse 1: Guru
sometimes I wonder why
some people can`t see what`s beyond the naked eye
so therefore I must fortify
techniques of communication
for beyond what is considered to be
normal conversation
so I need some proper `ticipation
am I giving what you need
yes true indeed
as greed grows like weed
many bad seeds start to contaminate the crop
I think that needs to stop hops
brothers are slain over respect and clout
while thier mothers`re trying to figure out
what`s it all about
but when you give up on self that`s when you lost
cause you`re playing with your life
like it`s a coin toss
Chorus
Verse 2: Guru
no doubt I release a form of speech
relative to urban outreach
transmitted messages to each true listener
rhymes divine but rough
like the skin on blisters
cause the truth hurts
plus I got no time for runnin` around chasin` skirts
so see my sound is a corrector
a profound lecture
quality texture
that`s because of what I see
alot of mc`s are gassed like hellium
word up g
alot of people in general are straight up no good
makes me wanna shoot `em
aiyo maybe I should
but instead I parlay
maintain self control
and say a prayer for the lost souls
Chorus
Verse 3: Guru
get up stand up
come on
stand up for your right
one two
I go to new heights with my insight
whipping my mic tight
with the height of a scholar
equipped with the gift to make crazy dollars
but that ain`t the whole
see my heart is in it
that`s the only way one could even attempt to win it
dj spin it while others critique
but the science makes `em weak
check the words that I speak
see it`s ridiculous for us
not to discuss
the real issues
like all you phonys
and why I dis you
dismiss you as a lost soul
Chorus
Outro: Jason Kay of Jamiroquai/Guru
if you don`t watch where you step
you can become indirect
and you know that you will lose your soul
and if you truly want to lose
until there`s nothing to choose
then you know that you will lose your soul
