Church Piano Lyrics by Defari

Rare Poise

2017

[Verse 1]
They often hate and spite us
I pledge to unite us
These devils still despise us
Bless the freedom fighters
And the local righteous, in the league of writers
Who spit the words of fire, my connection's heavy
Young brother Ev-y, get them files to Eddie
Something change inside me 'cause I'm not drinking nightly
They often hate and spite me, I pledge to live, I'm godly
Even when they indict me, release and free the godly
I work a different angle, not a Star Spangled
But of makings of you, good brother Curtis Mayfield
Defari, you anointed? Nah, just BitCoined it
Made my way, cash tokens, the whole family hold it
Baptized when I was seven, hear the church piano
Now you see why the brethren is an eternal candle
A fire, lit the tree, California weed
Had the whole Le Montmartre say "Merci merci"
Live the life exquisite, blessing is Herut-hless
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
[Bridge]
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
If you see me walking down the street
And I start to cry...don't even speak
Walk on by
Walk on by
'Cause I'm high on this blackness
[Verse 2]
We number one consumers, smarten up, let's use this
We don't own none of the city, ballin's useless
They can't domesticate me, man, the Johnnys hate me
Why the suspicion? Why it's still slavery?
Excuse my observation, and my occupation
My skin color give police reservations
Unless I'm playing on a field or a TV station
They'd rather have me in the fields or calling in my casin'
But yet I'm optimistic, always realistic
Have they forgot my granddad and uncles enlisted?
Then served a country that always like to say 'Fuck me'
It's okay, young fella, your people unlucky
I live the life exquisite, blessing is Herut-hless
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
[Bridge]
Smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
I know what I've been given, smart enough to go on and use it
[Outro dialogue]
Is it true that if you don't use it, you lose it?
(Is that a serious question?)
No, it wasn't
