Disease
C.O.N.S.H.U.S. Phenom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I’m here, stuck in my studio
Times are crazy, nobody knows where it all goes
I’m here, waiting for the disease to leave
All alone, making music like people speak
But writing lyrics like it’s harder than ever
I got so much to say but it’s hard to put it on paper
I don’t know if I’m sad or maybe I’m happy
Is it okay when everybody turns so crazy
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we’re the disease
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
It’s maybe we’d better leave
I know I don’t sound like I’m kind to all the ones who died
But it’s nice to know nature can rule our lives
Maybe it takes us back the power we stole from it
Maybe it’s better if we just all disappear
Where have we gone
How can we be proud of what we’ve done
Of who we are, of the thing we say are right
God must be staring at us and praying somebody else
He must feel the pain we’re causing in his chest
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we’re the disease
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
It’s maybe we’d better leave
I’m crawling, we’re crawling
But we’ve got so much to pay
We’re dying, we’re dying
And maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we’re the disease
If we should die tonight
Then maybe we deserve it




If we should die tonight
It’s maybe we’d better leave

You might have a hard time translating in Google but here you go!
Verse 1:

Yo, cuz I wake up in the morning feel the power from the heavens,
souls are lost cuz deadly sins are multiplied by seven
So I pray to Jah, to help me see the light of peace,
make my brothers spirits strong so we can overcome the beast
Stop the East and West we all supposed to be a nation,
stop the lies and ignorance, the presidents contamination of our people
We equal but they don't want us to see,
the only opportunity is to be all that you could be
Make yourself a slave and learn to fetch, nigga fetch
and then they throw the curve they didn't teach you how to catch
Fight, nigga fight, so they ship ya overseas
tell you killin' is alright as long as its the enemies
Give you guns and now it's time to die, nigga die,
die for our beliefs and die for our reasons why
I cry when I see my brothers givin' up they soul,
kill another nigga for control to hold the gold
When the beast is in the house I pray to God because its danger,
help me recognize cuz its disguised like Power Rangers
Lookin' in ya eyes to check ya soul and see its rotten,
no redemption for the fools for when the spirit is forgotten
Too busy being "down" to put ya hands together,
too busy being cool to thanks for coats in the cold weather
Spirits gettin' lost they got our searchin' for the cash,
demolishin' our peoples like our names was axe and slash
Growin' like a rash is the trash they try to teach,
how we get red like Robin? Suckin' welfare like a leach
Give and I will receive, while you be callin' niggas fools,
remember lots of what alerts(unearths?) from your uneducated schools
Trynna feed in-villas with your frosted flakes and shit,
its time to bust ya head and oxicute(execute?) ya like a zit
Get a grip, and realize ya lies have got to die
God's children cant be tricked by ya poli-tricks and spies
We shall overcome with the trumpets and the drums,
while ya Sodom and Gomorrah shit-stem is gettin' done

Chorus:
No redemption, souls diminish, you're at the finish of your lifeline you're best to ease 4x

Verse 2:

Soldiers of the king comin' down to guard my soul,
rap represents the other half of stories neva told
Ignorin' history burying culture like a bone,
while I dig to build foundation and solidify the throne
Think ya actin' on ya own but you be walkin' with the Devil,
signifying hate you're bringing strength to lower levels
Truth I talk, increase my brotha's understanding,
officializing customs just like immigrants when landing
Dealing with the shit-stem ignorance it never stops,
washing out your reign they got you givin' Satan props
Teach queens to love the money ladies turning into bitches,
gettin' down and dirty just like donkey doin' dishes
Yes I said it wont regret, these hotties gotta learn,
the fire comes from bangin' balls brimstone begins to burn
Devils gotta listen when I bring strength to my people,
try to counter-act with hate but Satan's sequels neva' equal
The story of our glory, writing words spelling like Tori,
do what we got to do to survive so I ain't sorry
Brotha's gettin' drawn into the belly of the beast, neva,
get what we want and what we want we have to tief (Ontario slang for thief/steal)
Hold it out in front while leadin' us down Devil's path,
feel before we realize were gonna feel the fires wrath
But I opened up my eyes and recognize and now I tell,
directions that they gave us got us on our ways to Hell
So rebel, don't ever suck the venom from they tit,
cuz then they suck our soul while our hearts "to pit" they spit
Fertilize our roots with SHIT overtime we grow,
then tell us when they tell us that were gonna be a pro
Make money for the man with every cent your soul's diminished,
working hard to run a race with separation at the finish!

Chorus:
No redemption, souls diminish, you're at the finish of your lifeline you're best to ease 4x

Verse 3:

I feel on FIRE! and so I write a rhyme right on time,
my pen is my weapon bringin' knowledge is my crime
I smother batty lovers, neva kill another brotha,
sent props to New York while I evade the undercovers
Trynna lock me up for gettin' fit so I survive,
say I'm doin' wrong trying to continue with my life
Cuz I can't, don't got the cash and it rules,
everything around me so I gotta use my tools
The vibe, the skills and the ish that God sent,
blood sweat and tears and I could only make a cent
And when I make it, they take it and said I did wrong,
dealin' with the shit-stem is the same sad song
I back the fuck up cuz they here like Onyx, (ONYX IS HERE)
keep your 6 mil my souls already bionic
Without the gin and tonic, with the chronic you cant win,
didnt know that fakin' funk is one of seven deadly sins
So when you die youre dead and now your soul is with the Devil,
by biggin' up yourself you're helping build the Devils level
So stop, cuz soon enough the war is gonna drop,
bombs on brothas bigger than the bullets from the cops
Bad boys best to bring your raps back to the beginning,
cuz crushing crack kids is one of many ways of winning
The battle, shake and rattles neva stops the snakes,
from poisoning our children and the tasty cakes we bake
Food for thought, cuz what we talk is our kids nutrition,
so if we speak of sin we see them sittin' in San Quentin
Wishin', that they could go back and change mistakes,
cuz now the shit-stem got em' drownin' in the lake of hate
Debate how you wanna live, whether wrong or right,
I came to ask a question with my message so I write,
raps to act as water out the fire of my rage,
Now its for our people fuck the information age

Chorus:
No redemption, souls diminish, you're at the finish of your lifeline you're best to ease 4x

This is absolutely beautiful. Art truth guidance. I understand why this isn’t a single bad comment on this video. We all have a duty to keep this song from being lost in time. Keep it stashed in your playlists and machines to marinate like the fine sound it is πŸ€™πŸ€™πŸ€™

@indyvinylz

The 6 dislikers clearly are victims of our society, without soul and still on their way to find themselves in this superficial world. I wish them all the best to evolve :) peace, dj skeli
