Readjustment

The end justifies the means
 Two, two, two wrongs make a right
 I, I should come first in this nation
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 I have so many questions, guessin' what life's about
 Usin' seven of my nine lives, figurin' out
 I'm goin' through it day to day
 Or should I say, maze to maze?
 I know that jewels light the way, listen
 There's too many shades of gray, tryin' to stay, right
 Peripheral vision, is seekin' out my sunlight
 I know that love is love and hate is hate
 Twenty-seven years of tribulation marking my case
 Yeah, I guess I'm stressing my case
 There's only one thing I'm promised in life
 That's my fate
 Born to set the pace while I'm racin' the race
 I know it's hard work that's why I'm holdin' the ace
 As I look to jump, up on that righteous path
 I got angels on one shoulder, demons on the other half
 A mirror face to face, surveying my landscape
 All the while I be singing this space
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 Yeah, yeah, yeah
 As we haze through the haze of enslavement
 While the sweat's beatin' millions of feet pound on the pavement
 I know it's nine to five, or five to nine
 Forget about the thoughts that I'm wastin' my time
 Just use the tutelage, of your legendary fore-fathers
 Cos right now, we now the struggle is ours
 It's not too complicated, just combinations of pulling our resources
 Of our sisters and our brothers
 Who be a alike, that's a little insight
 The strength be coming in numbers it's like dynamite
 No riddle right, spit it right, about some real life
 And are we really rich, at peace and settled?
 When everyday homeless people peddle for nickels
 While Easy Mo Bee strikin' a chord
 Of this hip-hop oracle, desires for life
 And what? You know what I'm coming to
 It's just my point of view
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
 And as we realize life, and what?
 We gotta suck it in
 And are we droppin' some knowledge or are we frontin' an'?
 Your course in life, no matter how you rub it in
 There's so many roads, either you strugglin' or bubblin'
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 I'll tell you what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 You gotta readjust the means
 Tell me what I mean
 Sometimes you gotta work it out
 Sometimes you gotta figure it out
 Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, oh oh
