Goodbye Jesus

I'm Gonna Get Mine


Legion

Recommended Posts

Yeah, he sat there in a chair in the backyard of the place where I was raised. Had a fucking chip on his shoulder. I usually know when people do. 'Cause man, I gotta chip too. I call that motherfucker... injustice.

 

Ha. Man, he started talking about some music, and I could feel that chip sittin' there, so I decide to let him have it.

 

I looked at him and said...

 

"I hear some of this music and it's like, "Me and mine. And mine and me. And I'm gonna get mine, and me and mine...

 

... man, that ain't art."

 

He had the brass balls to stand up and take a half step towards me, like he was going to do something. I wish he'd put his goddamn hands on me, 'cause I got my own chip. It's truly named injustice. And I'm gonna get mine.

What's it fucking matter.

 

Music.

 

You tell me why it matters.

I just think it would add some context to your observation- if we knew more specifically what music you're talking about.

 

As for injustice, everybody deals with that. Some have it much worse than you do. And some learn to deal with it without starting a fight every chance they get.

Yeah man.

 

So I'm sitting there another day with a "buddy" I knew. But he was like me, just another open-minded motherfucker looking for an opportunity to judge.

 

Yeah

 

So, we're sitting there in an Italian joint with two gay guys, havin' some pasta and shit. Hell if I know how, but the topic comes around to jerkin' off. One of them says that he thinks about himself when jacks his dick, right?

 

And there it is man. Real small like. My daily beast mixes with disgust, and poof... contempt true.

 

But I like it in big doses. Enough to make my top lip raise.

I'll tempt you to mistreat me, so that I may unleash it on you.

 

And I'll be so kind.

 

I'll be helpful.

 

Please, take me for a fool. Tell me to do something that ain't right.

 

Whoosh. Yah! Then I'm with you. And you know then what's in the room with you.

 

If you could see it from my side man.

 

It's like everything disappears but them and me.

and the only way to combat it legion is not to be just another self absorbed mofo, realise there are actually others in the world that need attention and affection too. just because self centred asswipe is the new black doesn't mean any of us has to embrace

Go For Yours ('cause I'm Gonna Get Mine)

 

I myself I'm called a hood because I walk with a limp

Would you believe they even call my boy a hip-hop pimp?

Like Dr. King I had a dream, I couldn't sleep too long

If I had to stand alone, I'd still be strong

Men are all equal, we're the Father's creation

What used to be the distand land is now my nation

How long will it be, how many suckers must die?

There's only one answer to the question why

My knowledge is the sun and it will always shine

You better go for yours, cause I'ma get mine

 

Unalikes attract and a-alikes repel

And if you buy dead dreams I got plenty to sell

All the money in the world couldn't buy my knowledge

My teacher was experience, the streets was college

It's a shame that many had to learn this way

So I never take the word of what the next man say

Head-a-arm-arm-a-leg-a-leg-a

Supreme High Being, Sole Controller, not a beggar

My true manifestation of Shan

I never fell, I held my destiny within my hand

On the day that I was born I received strike one

Because my culture was an Asiatic native son

My knowledge is the sun and it will always shine

You better go for yours, cause I'ma get mine

 

My foundation is strong, so I had to destroy

Do y'all remember Cheetah, that was Tarzan's boy

My main motto is self-satisfaction

( From: http://www.elyrics.net/read/m/mc-shan-lyrics/go-for-yours-(_cause-i_m-gonna-get-mine)-lyrics.html )

Life's a movie with no cuts, all straight up action

If you roll as a sucker, then a sucker you die

And six feet up above you is the heavenly sky

I haven't heard of any comin back to tell

Dyin must be heaven, cause livin is hell

You sit around and wait for your wish to be granted

And the next thing you know you're being buried and planted

Your body is the temple, the brain is the center

A door to explore, but you're scared to enter

Mind means many in either direction

And the dictionary listed in the poverty section

You're nothin but a novel on a bookstore shelf

And see the title of mine reads 'Went for Self'

My knowledge is the sun and it will always shine

You better go for yours, cause I'ma get mine

 

You say you're sick and tired of bein rejected

And you think you do better bein crime-connected

Just for example let's say that you're twenty

Got a Benz, fly girls and doo-doo money

Moms ask: "Where you get it?" What you gonna tell her?

You dropped out of school, became a drug seller

You say you knew what you were doin, you say you were smart

Next week they beat you down and bust a cap in your heart

Your knowledge is the sun, you better let it shine

No matter what you do with yours, I'ma teach mine
