Lyrics:<br />
<br />
I’m more than a conqueror I’m a soul survivor<br />
You shouldn’t be hearing my voice right now<br />
The enemy has been coming for me since I was a child<br />
I was let loose into a world of abuse and crack vials<br />
Pimps, prostitutes, con men, pranksters<br />
Hostile gangsters, best friends ending up dead with lead in they heads<br />
They were blood brothers<br />
Cause they discovered anothers turf<br />
Alcohol, coca colos and blunts<br />
Shocking cribs, bullying exploiting punks<br />
Running from popo, scaling fences and walls<br />
Like the world would never end but most of us would fall<br />
Our world was spinning so fast in this land of the lost<br />
I remember fat rob saying “Stop the world I wanna get off”.<br />
Later on I got a wifey and my child was born<br />
Then unemployment and the bills came marching on<br />
Causing tension and stress in my rest<br />
Now I’m hard pressed to get out of this mess<br />
Somebody said try Jesus<br />
So I did my best<br />
And pressed my way<br />
Taking it day by day<br />
Through the aches, pains and storms like hurricanes<br />
I kept my faith and the sunshine came<br />
Through the fire<br />
I rose higher<br />
And I’m here to let you know. The devils a liar<br />
The devil couldn’t take my soul<br />
I’m a soul survivor!<br />
<br />
Stranger in a strange land<br />
Trying to be the man that I am<br />
But the enemy got a plan to break down my fam<br />
So every day I turn the bible pages<br />
And get divine light from saints and sages<br />
From genesis to revelations<br />
So although I deal with this business worlds cubicle nation<br />
I’m totally aware of my soul salvation<br />
You can’t break me down<br />
I’ve been unemployed, underemployed and got back up now<br />
The world frowns, but the angels applaud<br />
Cause I’m aligned with the king of kings the lord of lords<br />
I know you was told that religion is a fraud<br />
But a personal relationship with God is the greatest reward.<br />
I was supposed to be dead or in jail but I prevailed<br />
With Christ I rose higher<br />
I’m a soul survivor

Lyrics:<br />
Yo, trust me, I know what you’re going through<br />
But keep on believing and God will pull you through<br />
You’ll have a breakthrough<br />
And in the meantime, there’s one thing that I want you to do<br />
Take a look in the mirror, you’re a miracle<br />
And The Creator, didn’t make a mistake when he made you.<br />
Out of billions of people on 7 continents No one has your personality<br />
No one has your fingerprint<br />
No one has your talents<br />
So get out of your comfort zone<br />
Don’t let it stay dormant!<br />
Manifest your unique qualities and ingredients<br />
Pick yourself up and live your dreams<br />
Let them know that you’re now on the scene<br />
You’re a miracle yo, do your thing!<br />
You are a spiritual being having a physical reality<br />
Don’t quit the game due to a minor technicality Go hard and play smart<br />
Show the world your revolutionary artGreater than Picasso and Mozart<br />
But you can’t win this race until you start<br />
But Like David and all the prophets you gotta have heart<br />
So don’t be afraid, take your place on the world stage<br />
Your destiny is waiting for you<br />
Resurrect and transform<br />
You are a miracle!<br />

Hot hip hop lyrics from Kamal<br />
<br />
Where's Ya Set?<br />
Hip Hop Lyrics For My Thugs<br />
Where's Ya Set When your wet in the ambulette?<br />
Left for dead, heads singing to the feds, where's ya soldiers at when the guns clap, the blood splats<br />
The blocks hot, you got locked, your dogs incognito<br />
In witness protection yo<br />
Babies die, mother's cry another funeral<br />
Who's to blame? All you ever shared was pain<br />
Where's the love? You spreadin blood over ghetto terrain<br />
It's a shame you won't walk on the positive planes<br />
Time to man up and follow your dreams for a change.<br />
You think you built for this?<br />
But at the end of the day<br />
Don't let your set fool you<br />
There's a better way<br />
Stop the violence!<br />
*Lyrics from spoken word poet, hip hop lyricist and youth mentor Kamal Imani aka Kamal Supreme. From the song "Stop the Violence" with Niva on NewBlackMusic.net<br />

1. Holy Bible KJV John 3:15 "Whosoever hateth his brother is a murderer: and ye know that no murderer hath eternal life abiding in him."<br />
This poem leads to the conclusion that there is everything to loose from engaging in criminal activities. Many young people in the inner cities and suburbs say "We'll I have nothing to loose" because they don't seem to have what the next man or woman has, but in fact your precious life is extremely valuable. It is your gift from the Creator. You were meant to be here to be more than a drug dealer, pimp, thief, gangster or criminal. The criminal life will lead you to jail or the cemetery.<br />
It may look like it's hard to get out of your situation but with a laser beam like focus on academic and career goals and dreams you can achieve them by taking one step at a time. The main key of course is education. It may not be the route to fast money, but think long term, be patient and keep the faith.<br />
Find yourself a trade school or college. You can learn anything from being a computer programmer, to a hair stylist/barber, mechanic, nurse, plumber, lawyer or anything that you can conceive.<br />
You also must realize that trying to impress your friends and the peers around you is not the way. Because you will find that in a few years they probably won't even exist in your life. So the people you're trying to impress won't even be around you anymore. Therefore, you need to focus on your goals. In other words, get right and do you!<br />

I Got Jesus by Kamal Emanuel<br />
A long long long long time ago<br />
Somebody told me to seek him until I find him you know<br />
But I was running the streets<br />
I mean, I was just too cool<br />
Following the crowd<br />
And you know what they say<br />
God protects fools<br />
And I went through many different fads, cultures and religions<br />
Till he brought me to the crossroads and I had to make a final decision<br />
And the funny thing about it, is that I went full circle<br />
To finally get right back to him To get back to my origin<br />
And then, I found a preacher and some saints who gave me back that old time religion! Can I get a AMEN?<br />
<br />
Now I strive to walk with him<br />
And get it like the bible says<br />
Every day my eyes are opening<br />
As he puts wisdom in my head<br />
More love in my heart<br />
More sense of responsibility for our community<br />
Through trials and tribulations<br />
I keep the faith and carry him with me<br />
Through communication, study, contemplation and praise<br />
Cause regardless to name, land or language<br />
He is the ancient of days!<br />
