Sister I`ve gotta strive, a 9 to 5 I`m sure you heard
We`re shippin politics I hope you hear now every word
I start like a father now I know you know my roots go on
Make, my, neck, hurt, music that`s how it goes
So child you best believe pass me the microphone I know
Snipe, how quick they took his life encounter what you know
I break it down and I, jump on the ground and I
I`m here to show and prove, my skin is brown so move
Now what you gonna do it`s kinda hard to find
I, I`m lookin out for yours can you look out for mine?
So good, I wish I could, tell you somethin good
I see the world as my class and some they wanna laugh
Not Kool-Aid stains and niggaz with no brains
I, I know that`s crazy how it sounds but that`s what it is
I wanna live but I never could forgive
No, justice no peace, hollers from the streets
The, bloods and crips meet, heaven`s concrete
But, my soul is good, everlastin
What`s on the bottom of my boots no diff I`m stompin hard
I`ve been here before, I`m peepin it all out again
I bare witness to the flag, read the sun moon and star
I`m breakin `em out, step in my face so we can start
Ten pers on the hill, they singin a song now if you will
So good, everlastin.. my soul is good.. so good..

I hope I ain`t got too many caught up in the groove
So like I say to my soldiers yo it`s time to move
Hear the screams of my people livin as victim I holla
Rock your brain, (?) thunder don`t even wonder
They`s hopin in the 90`s, in the hundreds far from done it
Now witness the quickness of my subliminal thoughts
I, travel in the state and be, like, uptown, and
I kick the crazy rhythm, check out the rhyme I`m givin
Some wanna stop my livin, I know I make `em mad
Everlastin, so good, trouble I had
Facin a blast from the past I lower the last
No ability to sleep on me I`m everlastin
So I soldier up intellect I`m goin for the throat
Note for note, in every word I wrote
Now from the head (?) uhh I`m still born
I, be like standin, in b-girl stance and
Never freaky prancin, but Nefer can dance and
Still I`m everlastin, my soul is good! Soul good!
