[Intro]
[Verse 1: Pilgrim]
Sherlock Holmes couldn't know that the G.O.D pros
Donned robes and cloaks to escape from the scope
Wole Soyinkas Throne and Achebes back home
Fela Kuti gave them bone and Ali struck a blow
Gladiators in Rome, Sungbo gave an Eredo
The life that you save might just be your own
See for thirty odd bits even Judas turned snitch
Marley gave them hits still they asked was he rich
Left amazed in a daze, lost looking through a maze
They say, They say, crime pays so the banks made way, so
[Hook: Pilgrim] x2
Mind what you sow, the seeds will grow
The life that you save might just your own
Yes, mind what you sow cause the seeds will grow
And the life that you save might just your own
[Verse 2: Pilgrim]
See the evidence is evident, unlogical to sentiment
From pavement to tenement all the way to the president
Requirements be affluent, decadent, belligerent
In troops they advance but the sword gives ennoblement
Peace is demonstrated so your lives were elongated
The plot was alleviated, Niger Area amalgamated
New thoughts were promulgated and the king got abdicated
With justice advocated it was time the aggravated
Left the affiliated and the scholars sat debated
The techies simulated so the errors were corrected
But the minds of mankind seem dilated and polluted
Deniros, Francs, Pesos, you get my drift gringo?
You mess with the heroes and get rounded down to zero
You're not promised tomorrow plus the life you got is borrowed
But nah never sorrow, righteous your path it stays narrow
Eternal life is born and the covenant is sworn, so
[Hook] x2
[Verse 3: Pilgrim]
I used to know this kid all he had was his dream
Haven't seen him since still we sat down to think
It ain't nobodys fault to born in the ghetto
Alone, cold, broke till they get a stiletto
Now the harvest is the plentiful but workers are few
The sword is invincible, it's aiming for you
It's enough to bring tears to eyes, hah the cries
The lies and the fights, the oppressor sitting tight
But we hit em with the right, uppercut em with a left
We do it to the death, and we bring it to the end
Be a warrior not a worrier, a blessing not a lesson
Retorts from Smith and Wessons, keep them testing, guessing, stressing
Walking, playing, thinking, praying, meditating with the dawn
Sitting, playing with the pawn, thinking heaven gave a spawn
Sent him down to earth, and the virgin gave it birth
See man was made from dirt and to that he shall return, so
[Hook] x2
[Outro: Pilgrim]
I used to know this kid all he had was his dream...
