Be the Shit or Be Shit

I deliver no matter the competition
You know that my composition will leave these MC's tripping
Never impressed by their rhetoric or their rhyme
And they're running out of time so they better get in line
Just some friendly advice from JJ Dimz
You can take it or leave it we gon watch you sink or swim
Cuz you can drown in the flow but try and stay afloat
And don't try and rock the boat when you're saying hello
Ce la vie mon ami I've been waiting patiently for the day that I can preach
The word that you need not the word that you seek
But the word that He speaks It's the truth do you believe
It can really set you free
If you do then you're like me knowing that you'll be relieved
In His presence that you seek, in His presence that you need
In the presence of the meek but the presence of the weak... kills
I've got to help pay bills can't knock tha hustle cuz I never stay still
Cuz this is my destiny child can't you see I've gotta keep on flowing
Cuz I wannabe free, I've gotta keep on going till the day that I can see
The promised land, the place where I'll reside
Free from the burdens of suffering and strife there's a place for you
And I where blacks ain't getting killed by cops who hold nines
That can shorten your life take a Pepsi you'll be fine Ha that's a dope line
Kendall must've thought it was coke that's why she signed
Damn, Jordan stop taking the piss I think they get the point
They can tell that you can spit
I hope they get the feeling that this shit is just a gift
And you are just a vessel but remember
It's essential that you do this for the love not
For the girls and drugs that can get you fucked up and have you falling off
Becoming disillusioned cuz the passion that you're losing means you'll no longer be cruising
But you'll be cruising for a bruising if the music ain't a movement
No longer starts to matter, priorities messed up cuz of the money on the platter
Becoming so corrupted that you start to change
We've seen this shit before it's the thing we call fame the killer of the greats
It's the reason why they stray... off the path following the breadcrumbs that lead into the dark
The root of all evil still motivates the art, it's the reason most musicians have lost their heart
So what you gonna do... join the club or mix the deck and pray for luck
Cuz the story never changes it's just another jester
The cards never change it's a different hand that dealt them
So are you gonna be the shit or be shit, are you gonna devote yourself to this gift
Try and make a change through what you spit, try and make a change through what you spit

So is you gon be the shit or be shit
Is you gon be the shit or be shit
Is you gon be the shit or be shit
Is you gon be the shit or be shit
