lyrics
Eye Of The Tempest

verse 1:
Egos forever swelling forever dwellin'
In ignorance & arrogance forever tellin
Fake stories about snakes & felons
Placing slugs in melons
Of unlucky fellas drug sellers thugs & over zealous women
Stories of kingpins & how you hung em & how you stung em
Now you filling young ones heads with visions of impossible cream
You got em feigning for lies
Living way beyond their means forming teams & ties
Designing schemes to fulfill their dreams
Of obtaining the finer things in life but real fast like
Evil pastimes have too many of us reminiscing of our baby brothers real fast life
Which was mad trife until the blast light
Children of the half light don't know how to act right
Last night another was lost to the crack pipe
& a 2nd over shoes in a fast heist
Yes its a sad plight how easy & fast life is lost
Plus the cost of the new Nikes mad expensive
Damage extensive savage kids lacking temperance
Acting like the Devils apprentice rent us all senseless & sent us
Straight into the Eye of the Tempest

chorus:
There's a storm that's brewin', Pursuin' mankind
to ruin mankind
& Still we act blind?

verse 2:
I heard that deeds speak o.k. so please keep that ass away
I have no need nor desire to be harassed today
I has to say that's the way my peeps be feeling when you pass this way
Squealing tires screaming sirens peeling caps for play
You have a vast array of this community
Feeling mad dismay seeing sad displays of punishment with impunity
As you blast away another brother but this one younger than the last
Might have seen 16 summers until he crossed the path
Of ridiculous cops who should've been plumbers instead see
A non-deadly fix for your cravings of lead gee
I wonder I wonder who's dumber them plumbers
Or the ones who gave them plumbers them guns
Man that badge be a license for wreaking havoc tragedy
& taking lives man we badly need to re-arrange the way these
Deranged things be arranged in these strange days see
The signs read the signs heed the signs these are the warning signs
So heed the science kid be true to the alliances that you make
But make no mistakes & make no alliances with fakes or snakes
Because the stakes are high Yo! Like IQ must be if were bent on survival
Which is reserved for the fittest nobody wanna die so exercise your defenses
Intellectual spiritual emotional strength is
Our only shelter @ the Eye of the Tempest
