[Verse 1: Talib Kweli]
K. West! Kweli!
Got searched on the plane, Arabic first name
Disturbed by the fame just like Kurt Cobain
Breath of life, kiss of death, my lips pursed the same
You flirt 'til she came
Nothin' hurt like the pain and torture
Daughters of the dust lookin' for a vein
Something to take in vain like the Lord's name
Put your hands together, got 'em all sayin'
[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
I try, I try
I try, you know I try
I try, I try
I try, you know I try

When I'm Gone Lyrics
When I'm gone will you take good care of everything? Will you keep wearing your wedding ring? When I'm gone. And when I'm gone will you take out all the photographs Maybe spend a moment in the past? When I'm gone. Will you miss me in the night? Will your arms reach out to hold me tight And keep me in your dreams in your heart in your life? Sometimes I'll wanna run to you like lovers do When love is new and just for a moment be close to

Yo, it's all ghetto in gear higher, the floor settle
More metal for beef that we don't let the law settle
I try to navigate the treacherous waters of
America's ghettos that set up the slaughteres
But there's more of us
Although we speak in different languages
We all pretty familiar with what anger is
Young and dangerous, ??? strangulous
Get up on some gangsta shit
Guns to bang ya wit'
And we put it on records to entertain ya wit'
Our growing pains are way deeper than Mike Seavers
Our uniforms is white sneakers and white T-shirts
On top of wife beaters
We like to light reefers
The 'hood need us for rappers, just ain't the right leaders
I put a lot into it
This is my product and I gotta move it
Stop the industry but you can't stop the music

Go Down Moses Lyrics
When Israel was in Egypt's land Let my people go Oppressed so hard they could not stand Let my people go Go down, Moses, way down in Egypt's land Tell old Pharaoh, Let my people go So Moses went to Egypt's land Let my people go To make old Pharaoh understand Let my people go Thus spake the Lord, bold Moses said, "Let my people go,

Some many sufferin' cuz deep inside they're scared (so scared)
Fear pumped into their veins to keep them from their destiny
Where would they be if you and I don't care?

I try, I try, you know I try
I try, I try, I try, you know I try
[Verse 3: Talib Kweli]
Yo, the things I'm seein' on the news is insane
A stock broker shoot his kid and throw himself in front of a train
A mother leave her baby home for two weeks all by himself
Three years old, eatin' ketchup and mustard, cryin for help
Tryin' to bring your struggle to life
The label want a song about a bubbly life
I have trouble tryin' to write some shit
To BANG in the club through the night
When people suffer tonight
Lord knows I try
[Hook: Mary J. Blige]
I try, I try, I try, you know I try
I try, I try, I try, you know I try
Mutiny On The Ark Of The Blood Brothers Lyrics
The last mariner alive on the ark of the Blood Brothers hears the five howls of its haunting. One in the sail when the scales of the oil ocean glow pink. One in the cabin for the swollen navels of pregnant sirens, the fins on the backs of dead pirates. Three in the lookout tower for the temptation of cursed pineapples, the deadly lure of Piano Island. Oh oh oh oh oh you never know. The hints of phantom revolt might never ever show until yo

[Interlude: Talib Kweli]
Life is a beautiful struggle
People search through the rubble for a suitable hustle
Some people usin' the noodle, some people usin' the muscle
Some people put it all together, make it fit like a puzzle
Come on, say it now
Life is a beautiful struggle
People search through the rubble for a suitable hustle
Some people usin' the noodle, some people usin' the muscle
Some people put it all together, yeah

{*Mary J. Bliges harmonizes with the beat*}
Upside down kingdom
Oh, they're so scared
Everyday on the news we can't look around with
something somewhere
I try, I try, you know I try
I try, I try, I try, you know I try
Lord knows, Lord knows we try
Yeah
