Nothing Without Providence - Mr. J. Medeiros

I am recognizing that the print inside my hand

Is telling me to find myself and never follow other man

Cus other men are full of ideas that can do horrible things

And if I don’t know who I am

I can fall for anything

Now he was born on a mountain

Scorned by the west winds

Warned by the fountain

You’re your only best friend

Tossed in the fire

For calling it a liar

Lost his left hand but he walked out alive yeah

He said there ain’t a sky here without a tail in it

They want your eyes and ears cus there’s a sale in it

Conspicuous consumption

Conspiracies conforming your function

The suited men pursuing him to act like a pseudonym

Soon threw him in with an axe

Saying break this rock here find my soul

Put him to work at 90 years old

No I am not compliant

No I am not defiant

No I am not disclosed

No I am not reliant

No I am not submissive

No I am not listed

No I’m not domineering

No I will not fit this «No»

Until I know, until I know

Until I know, until I know

You better know, you better know

You better know, you better know

Now I have got a voice and it’s the voice you’re hearing now

Leaving you the only choice to adhere or tune it out

To the message that I’m speaking and the Providence I’m after

But I am not a leader I’m a rapper

Now she was born on a mountain

Scorned by the west winds

Warned by the fountain

You’re your only best friend

Tossed in the fire

For calling it a liar

Lost her left hand but she walked out alive yeah

She said there ain’t a home here without a rat in it

Whether or not its known we still trapped with it

Leverage the clock with a measure of stock

When the temperatures hot we sit alone and just adapt with it

The embryo defending no was attacked

By the men who grow lands of snow in a sac

Saying cut these crops down save my days

Put her to work with a baby on the way

No I am not compliant

No I am not defiant

No I am not disclosed

No I am not reliant

No I am not submissive

No I am not listed

No I’m not domineering

No I will not fit this «No»

Until I know, until I know

Until I know, until I know

You better know, you better know

You better know, you better know
