[some Jamaican gwal]
2
No matta wat we fyace
3
We mus face de moment of trut baybe
4
Chorus: Guru
5
They say it's lonely at the top in whatever you do
6
You always gotta watch motherfuckers around you
7
Nobody's invincible no plan is foolproof
8
We all must meet our moment of truth
9
Verse One: Guru
10
The same sheisty cats that you hang with and do your thang with
11
could set you up and wet you up nigga peep the language
12
It's universal, you play with fire it may hurt you
13
or burn you, lessons are blessings you should learn through
14
Let's face facts, although MC's lace tracks
15
it doesn't mean behind the scenes there ain't no dirt to trace back
16
That goes for all of us, there ain't nobody to trust
17
It's like sabotage, it's got me ready to bust
18
But I can't jeapordize, what I have done up to this point
19
So I'ma get more guys, to help me run the whole joint
20
Cultivate, multiply, motivate, or else we'll die
21
You know I be the masterof the who what where and why
22
See when you're shinin, some chumps'll wanna dull ya
23
Always selfish jealous punks, will wanna pull ya
24
down, just like some shellfish in a bucket
25
cause they love it, to see your ass squirm like a worm
26
But just as you'll receive what is comin to you
27
Everybody else is gonna get theirs too
28
I ain't no saint, therefore I cannot dispute
29
That everyone must meet their moment of truth
30
Chorus: Guru
31
Actions have reactions, don't be quick to judge
32
You may not know the harships people don't speak of
33
It's best to step back, and observe with couth
34
For we all must meet our moment of truth
35
Verse Two: Guru
36
Sometimes you gotta dig deep, when problems come near
37
Don't fear things get severe for everybody everywhere
38
Why do bad things happen, to good people?
39
Seems that life is just a constant war between good and evil
40
The situation that I'm facin, is mad amazin
41
to think such problems can arise from minor confrontations
42
Now I'm contemplatin in my bedroom pacin
43
Dark clouds over my head, my heart's racin
44
Suicide? Nah, I'm not a foolish guy
45
Don't even feel like drinking, or even gettin high
46
Cause all that's gonna do really, is accelerate
47
the anxieties that I wish I could alleviate
48
But wait, I've been through a whole lot of other shit, before
49
So I oughta be able, to withstand some more
50
But I'm sweatin though, my eyes are turnin red and yo
51
I'm ready to lose my mind but instead I use my mind
52
I put down the knife, and take the bullets out my nine
53
My only crime, was that I'm too damn kind
54
And now some skanless motherfuckers wanna take what's mine
55
But they can't take the respect, that I've earned in my lifetime
56
And you know they'll never stop the furious force of my rhymes
57
So like they say, every dog has it's day
58
And like they say, God works in a mysterious way
59
So I pray, remembering the days of my youth
60
As I prepare to meet my moment of truth
61
("You should know the truth
62
And the truth shall set you free" --> from _Who's Gonna Take the
63
Weight?_)
64
Verse Three: Guru
65
Yo I got one lyric pointed at your head for start
66
Another one, is pointed at your weak ass heart
67
Now if I pull the trigger, on these fully loaded lines
68
You're gonna wish I woulda pulled a black nine, I mack dimes
69
Crack the spines of the fake gangsters
70
Yeah the bitin triflin niggaz, and the studio pranksters
71
Yo lookin at the situation plainly: will you remain G?
72
Or will you be looked upon strangely?
73
I reign as the articulator, with the greater data
74
Revolvin on the TASCAM much doper than my last jam
75
While others struggle to juggle, tricky metaphots
76
I explore more, to expose the core
77
A lot of MC's, act stupid to me
78
And we have yet to see, if they can match our longevity
79
But anyway it's just another day
80
Another fake jack I slay with my spectac' rap display
81
Styles, smooth but rugged -- you can't push or shove it
82
You dig it and you dug it cause like money you love it
83
The king of monotone, with my own throne
84
Righteously violent prone my words bring winds like cyclones
85
Stormin your hideout, blockin out your sunlight
86
Your image and your business, were truly not done right
87
Throw up your he-Allah-I now, divine saviors
88
You got no hand skills there's no security to save ya
89
No pager, no celly, no drop top Benz-y
90
I came to bring your phone hip-hop, to an ending
91
My art of war will leave you sore from the abuse
92
Cause you must meet your moment of truth
93
