J-Live lyrics : "One To 31"

What up man? We're backAh what up? Fancy meeting you hereYeah what up man, how you been?Been good, yo sit down manTime to startOh yeah?Peace, peace, peaceMy name is Justice AllahI way to New York my way of my old earth(That means mother)My father came here from Haiti about 40 years agoMy father did not teach me his languageI barely knew him as my fatherHe is like the devil in that he gave me nothingWhy's he like the devil?Because he avoided me since I was a little boyWhy do you not seek him out now that you're a grown man? Because my mother gave me food for thought and bellyDoes this have anything to do with the above question?I didn't need him to acquire the knowledge of myselfWhat is the knowledge of your self?I own self is a righteous godAre there any gods other than righteous?I beg your pardon, I never heard of oneAfter all that degree ain't hardCause if you ain't righteous how you supposed to be godAnother question you might have no doubtHow does god on his album cover looking knocked out?For me it's simple and plain Let me explainIts symbolic to the fact I've been through some thingsI was tripping to taking no $$# whooping literally I'm just trying to showyou my painCause life imitates art like even before I had kids naming my best albumthe best partThe life of this artist was drawing kind off darkBut darkness accentuates the light's sparkTo reveal there's room full of powder kegThat explodes into all of these soundsSo visually that was me knocked outMusically this is me getting up off the groundI use the $$#ault and battery to energizeAnd set sail on a whole nother enterpriseBoldly go where MCs are scared toMan up in ways boys ain't prepared to Take life's hardest hits one the chinWife the blood off my cheek and begin againSo why these rappers fantasize and pretendThis just shows you art imitates life now and thenHow many records have your released as J Live?A little over fiveHow many records have you sold combined since your first album?Approximately 100,000Do you mean to say that the millions of people Who love hip-hop aren't aware of your music?Yes sirI can hardly believe that unless they were blind, deaf and dumbWell they were made blind deaf and dumb By popular culture since they were babiesCan a label fool J Live?No not nowadaysDo you mean to say the labels will fool J Live in the ten years?YesThe labels made the interpretation I'd receive gold for my laborMore than I could earn in my own companyThen did you receive gold?NoThe labels disappearedAnd there was no one there to speak my languageThen what happened?
