Lock Down Love (Flesh-n-bone Dedication)

Yeah - yeah (that lockdown love)
This is to young Timothy
Faithful servant of Jesus Christ (that lockdown love)
What up my nigga? (It's for ya, it's for ya)
This is for Stanley Howse, faithful servant of Jesus Christ
(It's for ya; that's on lock, down, love)
Yeah, and for everybody that's sittin down there on lockdown love
(It's for ya, it's for ya, it's for ya, it's for ya)
Faithful servants of Jesus Christ (that's on lock, down, love)
Yeah (it's for ya, it's for ya, it's for ya, it's for ya)
I'm with you nigga
For all of my homies' prison tears, locked up, for many years
With 23 hours locked down and one hour to clear
Never no fear livin in dreams and you can't wait until you hear
Your name called to leave and go home but, don't miss your peers
Everyone tellin you "Don't come back, and write as often as you can"
Like Flesh-N-Bone, Samuel, man-man one Daniel
The plan wasn't a problem, the actions it made it solvable
My salvation had mortared 'em, with Jesus callin an audible
Dear Father, you know that I love you, tell me how was we born?
In a matrix, in a maze, or a haze or a storm?
The terminology was probable, Babylon you too hostile
Hades, it was so crazy and my thoughts stick to the hospital
Some of 'em wait for the rest of their days, forever in chains
Paul, who wrote Corinthians shall never be shamed
And never be blamed, and never be tamed, my heart and soul full of love
For all of my people that's on lockdown love; this for the judge
I'm sendin out that lockdown looooove
Soldiers on lockdown, all my soldiers on lockdown, we want 'em out now!
I'm sendin out that lockdown looooove
Soldiers on lockdown, all my soldiers on lockdown, we want 'em out now!
Damn; I know it's consequences, but how did you get this sentence?
When you up against the system, and they rulin out repentance
Instead they caused the distance, that got us hopin, wishin
That we could one day hold our loved ones again-gain
Never hold yo' head down, keep it up, that's right keep it up (keep it up)
Cause nigga, yo' nigga gon' keep them books tight
That's right, 'til you get freed up (freed up)
I've been lookin at the world from a whole 'nother angle (angle)
Since you've been gone (gone)
Seein how penitentiary's a big business (business)
And the president doin us wrong (wrong)
Worry not (not) cause we gon' plan, plot and strategize (strategize)
And one day change the world, reverse the curse and make sure you right (you right)
Our Heavenly Father is our daily guidance and he's gonna show us the way (show us the way)
Don't worry be happy, our Heavenly Father, he's gonna show us the way
Timin is everything, time is so precious precious precious, worldly wicked lessons
But you still livin, so we can't forget, to count our blessings
Hold on, do what you got to do to come home
It already been too long, nigga when you touch down, it's on
Stay strong, back with Bone, tell them niggaz in there we real out here
Hold it down for these babies, representin, we still out here
In the field out here, tryin to get my hands on a mil' out here
It's our year to shine, it's our year to shine, shine, shine
Whatever you need, I got you bleed; relax and chill, it's on me
It was on for a minute but it's better right now, back the way it's supposed to be
Can't wait for the day that you close to me, how we used to be, my brother
Them Howse boys in the buildin, still cooler than a motherfucker
We ain't forgot about you, we out here holdin it down
Makin sure everything's straight, when you get out
(I'm sendin out that lockdown looooove)
I know you feel alone, it's a separation
But keep your head to the sky, and be patient
(I'm sendin out that lockdown looooove)
I'm sendin letters and pictures for my smile's contagious
I know you feel the lovin when you flip them pages
(I'm sendin out that lockdown looooove)
It won't be long now, we come to this town
Everww
