Everything Is Everything

Everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually Everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually

I wrote these words for everyone Who struggles in their youth Who won't accept deception Instead of what is truth It seems we lose the game Before we even start to play Who made these rules? We're so confused Easily led astray Let me tell ya that

Everything is everything Everything is everything After winter, must come spring Everything is everything

I philosophy Possibly speak tongues Beat drum, Abyssinian, street Baptist Rap this in fine linen From the beginning My practice extending across the atlas I begat this Flippin' in the ghetto on a dirty mattress You can't match this rapper slash actress More powerful than two Cleopatras Bomb graffiti on the tomb of Nefertiti MCs ain't ready to take it to the Serengeti My rhymes is heavy like the mind of Sister Betty L. Boogie spars with stars and constellations Then came down for a little conversation Adjacent to the king, fear no human being Roll with cherubims to Nassau Coliseum Now hear this mixture Where hip hop meets scripture Develop a negative into a positive picture

Now, everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually

Sometimes it seems (Sometimes it seems) We'll touch that dream (We'll touch that dream) But things come slow or not at all And the ones on top, won't make it stop So convinced that they might fall Let's love ourselves then we can't fail To make a better situation Tomorrow, our seeds will grow All we need is dedication

Let me tell ya that Everything is everything Everything is everything After winter, must come spring Everything is everything

Everything is everything What is meant to be, will be After winter, must come spring Change, it comes eventually
