Olive Oil

I extend my hand, I have fed the needy
I have broken bread, now a lot are eating
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
Cause they ain't want the peace
Where's the priest
REST IN PEACE
Aw yeah yeah
It's trouble for em' all yeah yeah
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
So send em to the priest
No relief
Rest In Peace

I held out my hand, held out the olive branch
I took up the wrong stance with those who were not friends
Aw naw
So they will not again see the benevolent king
They will a tyrant
I am on a rant, I am on a roll
Crushed that olive branch into olive oil
Tried to keep the faith, tried to keep it loyal
Let it simmer slow now I'm on a boil
I am very keen, yes I have a nose
So I am seeing all those subliminals
I tried to be a dove Lord, heaven knows,
But I gotta be a war time general
Gotta recognize that I'm not like the others
I'm a Jordan 97 at the buzzer
Tried to give the love I have to all my brothers
But they hate to see my coat of many colors

I extend my hand, I have fed the needy
I have broken bread, now a lot are eating
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
Cause they ain't want the peace
Where's the priest
REST IN PEACE
Aw yeah yeah
It's trouble for em' all yeah yeah
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
So send em to the priest
No relief
Rest In Peace

I tried to bring it to em on some peace shit
But they lookin' at my name like it's weakness
All bark no bite on some tree shit
So I gotta do it to em on some beast shit now you know me
Let's the dogs off the leashes (Woof woof yeh)
Summon all the demons (Demon time 22)
Even put guerillas on the troop (yeah)
I got the wolves out I swear it's like a zoo here
Now I'm bringing drama to your set
I promise any problems I correct
Usually the violence I detest
But violence over silence I'll accept
I make guarantees never threats
So it's time to put freeze on your bets
Gotta draw the line and this is not a test
If you not on this side then you are with the rest
God bless

I extend my hand, I have fed the needy
I have broken bread, now a lot are eating
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
Cause they ain't want the peace
Where's the priest
REST IN PEACE
Aw yeah yeah
It's trouble for em' all yeah yeah
Said they want the peace, but they broke the treaty
So send em to the priest
No relief
Rest In Peace
