Thrive

Enlightenment in dark places Who will continue Jah works? Dem don't want fi work in the ghetto Like dem people have no worth He who has ears to hear let him listen Doin' my thing Doin' my thing Try not to compromise the mission We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I I don't wanna be like Mike I wanna be like Malcolm Because you can't jump high When you're chained to the ground This is the slavery that we must take For the kingdom that comes Now walk a mile in I shoes And judge I when you're done We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I See, as of late, I been maneuvering through this BS We not the best but all we need in return is some respect The Late Ones gonna make it No faking, still contemplating How to spread the message, spitting the truth While reaping all our blessings If I don't do it then tell me who will Spitting these lessons, repping my section I know that you know the deal And the mic is my weapon, keep it concealed It ain't a question, this is perfection We bring the light like Common suggested Every time that I look in the mirror All these lines on my face getting' clearer We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I We thrive in the dark So that you may see the light Dem don't want it to shine That is the job of I and I
