[Intro]
Em D Em D
[Chorus]
EmThey go one for the Prophet, two for Islam
EmThree for the Khutba from the Imam
DFour for the mother that birthed my frame
DFive for the father 'cause he taught me game
EmBeen 'round the world, songs are all the same
EmSometimes when I'm asleep I still call your name
DBack when I was young I used to dream of fame
DNow they all point they fingers saying who's to blame
EmMothers put their girls into pigtail curls
EmFathers teach their sons how to shoot their guns
They say, "DBoy don't never cry control your emotions
Just Dtake it like a man, make your stand"
They say, "EmSex and violence go hand in hand"
For Emevery man blessed there got to be ten damned
ExDpand through the depths of space and time
DStanding three eyes blind on the firing line
EmWord to my man divine, come too far
EmSinging la ilaha il allah
DTwelve rakahs short on my full day's prayer
DJust hoping that the lord got some mercy to spare
They goEm one for the ummah, two for the deen
EmThree for the angels, four for the alamin
DSomewhere between totally obscene
And Dperfectly clean, got a Babylon feeling'
EmWounds that need healing', truth need revealing'
EmHands need washing' from all the dirty dealing'
DFrom the floor to the ceiling', from the stage to the door
DFrom the kings and the queens and the slaves and the whores
For Emevery lost cause where the martyrs are found
EmThat funky little sound, that make you want to get down
SomeDbody told me once, love makes the world go round
Now Dkids they carry pistols out on the playground
EmThat profound, gone too far.
EmPraying to the light from a burned out star
Put your lDights on, put down your crosses
It's time to Dtally up your wins and your losses
EmThey go one for Scott La Rock Two for Pac and B.I.G.
And Emthree for all the mothers who got graves to dig
DFor all the mothers who got graves to dig
DFor all the mothers who got graves to dig
