Verse 1:
What happened to the books that we used to read
Now the media on disguise, lies is what they feed
We starve and hunger for the knowledge, till we finally have the courage
To see our dreams, so good it seems, yeah we can clearly see the image
Real wealth can’t be found on material things
There’s a heaven in your mind that education can bring
If you strive a little harder you can be anything
Crumpled paper messed eraser on my spiritual writings
Wished I didn’t messed up my life as a high school student
Wished that I didn’t cause trouble but had been more kind and prudent
Reminiscing those good days where we would stand by
On the corridor heard joyous laugh as the teacher comes by
I missed those days where the only problems we had is a piece of paper
I know we never bought that we use to borrow from another
I missed those days where we hang out after class and laugh harder
And a minute later, everybody’s getting better
Hook (2x):
Everything’s real but money can’t buy
Calm yo spirit rest yo soul everything will be alright
Come and hold my hand homie together we fly
Fight for righteousness together we stand by
Verse 2:
There's a hoodrat on the streets tryinG to make his life better
It went worse because of his ways, accidents came closer
Trying to earn for something good, but suddenly bad things he encountered
For smuggling the dope, he pulled on the rope, the cops they got him brutally battered
Electrified the shit out of his brain, his teeth got brutally smashed and shattered
Found by locals in a coma, yeah it did became a disaster
But how hard the storm can be, there's a rainbow always after
He hold unto his hand, he did never let go, he saved him from his final hour
He was blinded , but saw the light, he saw the light on his darkest night
He found his goodness in your presence, in Your Presence he feels delight
Even if he walked away and turned his back, you never abide
Someday we will be in a place where dreams and reality collide
Sitting high in the skies on the clouds do we ride
Life can be like waves low and high tides
Experience is a teacher and a dove is our guide
Existence is a tester and heaven is our price
Repeat hook
Verse 3:
There’s a book that I found called the book of wisdom
Basic instructions before we leave and enter his kingdom
All the teachings and all of the writings will give your soul eternal freedom
On bended knees, you set me free, you made me become freeman
A heart full of faith acquires courage, the ear of the wise seeks knowledge
To engage in good deeds, only wisdom to be feed
Our father loves us all he set his only son to bleed
So the wrong-doers and the sinners from our sins we will be freed
though He is a king he learned from the things that which He suffered
Terrible things that are done by his own brother
But love is all he gave and teachings that are clearer than water
I shall never lose my faith all my trust is in your power
You shall reign in my heart, in your power I surrender
The comforter of the afflicted, the defender of rejected
The acceptance to the neglected, the sanctuary of the exhausted
The teachings that are divine, the one that makes everybodys heart delighted
Repeat hook
