Altar by The Cranberry Show Lyrics
[Intro]
[Young Focus]
A long time in the future, where religion and deception collide
And personal gain corrupted the church
There were two, only two men of the cloth remain
Who were truly for the people
This, is the their sermon (iechacha)
[Verse 1: Young Focus]
Black diamonds in the pages of my bibles
Damn I think a nigga might of went to hard and prayed for all my rivals
Got this pistol and a cross
In this Lou Vuitton for who you bring
Trying to stay alive, I'm maneuvering
Up in this bitch like a nuvaring
And they when we spit its like we out do hell
Might go to jail for the heat so like LeBron in reverse nigga you should know our bail
In case you got to get us out, and show a nigga what you about with the clout
No standing by and watching
Cats is living in the pass while I'm more like quarterback options
Yesterday i saw a nun and she said baby where your mind go?
Saw a clock in confession ask the reverend where the time go (TIME SLOW)
You know its time to go when them lames up on that cool shit
And them thugs you went to school with, is preaching in the pool pit (im saying)
[Hook]
Set it right now where you sell it right now
Sell it right now where you set it right now
Putting five on your soul so you betting right now
Betting right now, so you betting right now
So bend your knees at the altar
Fall on your knees at the altar
[Verse 2: Arcane]
Who gone save all these homo sapiens
And the days we in
See it's writing on the walls in the cave we in
And we caged in
Can't get out of this shame cloud
Today might be my last
If so just give me my pass
If not, Ima fuck shit up and raise hell like Satan was a stay at home dad Stuck between a rock and a hard place
Trying to sell more then Scarface
Packing my life in a guitar case
Headed to the west, where the best lay, tryna catch me
Just wait y'all go see, That the world is doomed
You can die in vain, you can survive, but the world consumed
By media and more lies, so pick a side
I'm not saying what's wrong or right
Just know one is blasphemous and the other is bright as lights
But you better make it fast
Cuz who matters most is so impatient
Chasing money you so complacent
Lost your soul and now your facing the altar
[Verse 3: Young Focus]
Let the youth roar, 'til the motherfucking roof tore
Pulling two swords, leave them too sore
Two whores, RuPauls tied to the new floors
Fake niggas get crucified in this war
[Bridge]
Altar
Oh Maria
Altar
Oh Maria
