Dash - Test Of A Man lyrics
Your rating:
Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan If the test of a man is to throw up your hands Then we gon'do that fighting because it's united we stand Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan If the test of a man is to throw up his hands Then he gon'do that fighting because it's united we stand I put my heart in this, I'm a part of the art of this My cartilage is seepin' out my nose like smoke from parliaments If god is just then why do I continue to sweat it I'm ready to set it, don't anybody doubt who ain't jetted I'm headed for a brawl I like to get locked up and then bailed out Can't wait to get a taste and meet my mates at the ale house These soldiers in the war for sport; report on the double Forever blowing bubbles I can't resist, it takes one diss I get pissed and here come my beer balls I flip my shit get ballistic when one of my peers falls We got a man down, See how this fam bound? Step up and face him adjacent that's how we stand ground I feel serenity when I'm facing my enemies Knowing any friend will be sending me plenty of energy Lending no thought to the penalties Never get what the end will be It's time to knuckle up, Ey yo you ready? Well you better be Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan If the test of a man is to throw up your hands Then we gon'do that fighting because it's united we stand Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan If the test of a man is to throw up his hands Then he gon'do that fighting because it's united we stand I'm like most boys, taught at a young age To stifle our emotions except one: Rage That was acceptable, not sadness, unacceptable To madness, I wanna stab shit But wanna have kids My great dichotomy, my yin and my yang I struggle on a daily basis with my kid or my gang I sin but I hang in making the reap sing bliss I'm sick and tired of hearing myself spit the same shit Like I'm blind less, no, I'm blind fist, no I bang heads My fist connects with a blind's face and it's nameless It's heinous, what we do to self and each other While people turn a blind eye, I spy we killin' each other ‘Cause while you bump this, rambunctious, tongue twists Some's lungs get punctured, and mum's need comfort But some get nothin' but a cold ass casket Hate these (this was the only line that no matter how often I listen to it I just don't know) He bleeds it if you knows that bastard Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan If the test of a man is to throw up his hands Then he gon'do that fighting because it's united we stand (x2) From both coasts of the Atlantic From the seas to seashores Once the fires undo our alliance, in these wars We see the probable cause In most of our killing But what about the ones not willing And the ones who was children? We supposed to be building A better day for tomorrow I feel like we climbing a mountain As big as Kilimanjaro If you feeling the sorrow You know that your heart isn't hollow I'm ready to lead a new mission Are you ready to follow? Not swallow government interests Or their excuses devour While corporations killing millions With the abuses of power I refuse to sour To just step by and be quiet But I'm curbing my urges So these motherfuckers are riot We gotta question the weapon Used for reppin' up in our habitat The pen is mightier, why do you Wanna go and grab a gat? The goal is evolution But it has to be passive Start with the health of self To pass the mental wealth to the massive Rep yourself, rep your family Rep your health and rep your clan The real test of a man is to put down his hands And we can be united 'cause if we divided, we damned See there's ways of handling things, and there's ways of handling things. Some ways just better for ya health, na what I mean? You take care of yourself, take care of your loved ones. Don't ever back down from something you believe in, ‘Cause if you don't stand for something, you'll fall for anything. Alright? Ya.
