Miracle

Lyrics

If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 The whole world trippin', listen it's still a cold world
 The other day I had to bury my homegirl
 Wrong place, caught one in her face
 Plus her man's on the run and couldn't come to the wake
 For Heaven's sake, you pray God open the gate
 In this modern day Sodom, that's their only escape
 10 year olds are cold, no, they don't hesitate
 2 up a G pack, he chose the whole 8
 Catch a 5 to 10 sellin' 5's and 10's
 And the police informer was your childhood friend
 In the real world, gotta hustle for your dream
 Extend your clips, fit the muzzle with the beam
 For the love of cream, it's nothin' but routine
 Swing on the judge, take a couple for the team
 He's the young Capone, he grew up in a drug home
 Stranded on the Ave with a blunt and his gun shown
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 Alive, seen things from the Godfather saga
 A Martin Scorsese classic and I'm the author
 Drama at the opera, crime story novel
 Tuxedo suit and silencer on the nozzle
 Meeting place scheduled at the Broadway musical
 Bravo, we arrive in bulletproof limo
 Shotgun, the underboss of our main source
 Of interest, the black widow cocaine empress
 A princess rich from her family's inheritance
 Now let's talk business, begin by addressin' the bricks
 That was missin' in the last shipment
 At first, everything nice, everything routine
 Jocks lining up the food, we blessed him with the cream
 But on this day he wasn't ready and my God sense keen
 I noticed that his normal firm handshake shook
 It wasn't steady when he squeezed
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 He went from prince to a king out of a life of rubbish
 Wearin' tailor-made suits, Sky Dwellers and clusters
 To perfection, rags to riches, the evil's done influenced
 That pushed him off the edge, they said the greed made him do it
 You're my right hand, damn, he fucked the trust up
 It's ruined, niggas caught him slidin' on his belly
 I'm grippin' on my hammer with the silencer twisted
 Contemplatin' murder now, I'm 'bout to swerve on my biscuit
 But it's my man at the same time, I don't wanna do him
 He violated, broke a major code, bar what you stealin' now
 It's over, in the falls of Niagara, he was soakin'
 With a shell case stuck in his head, they found him floatin'
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
 Allah let me lay in your arms
 Hold me like a newborn, sing to me the most sweetest song
 The exalted, the most benevolent
 The knower of all, keep me safe 'till I return back to your residence
 This Earth, my place of birth
 As time went through the ages it got worse
 Sicknesses, beheadings in Syria
 Ebola's killin' my people, it's gettin' scarier
 Most foods ain't even real, the chip is here
 Deadly fluids bein' released, contracted through air
 Dear God, it's been a minute since I cried out
 Since mama died, I never wild out
 We need help like the phone's 'bout to die out
 Can you hear me? Can you hear me now?
 We need a miracle
 Destroy the FDA for holdin' back cures so they can get paid
 If a miracle, could save us from
 The travesty, that we've become
 If a million sons would stand as one
 We will overcome, overcome
