[00:37.64]I've watched you go through a lot of trials and tribulations, Rae(G-O-D's my reality)
[00:39.61]But you know something? Like I used to always tell you, baby
[00:42.05]A good listener's a good learner
[00:43.65]I see you listened very well, you understand? (I'm elevating strong and I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)
[00:47.38]Your time is comin', baby
[00:49.05]And see, sometime, it could be like a, a rear view, you know what I'm sayin'?
[00:53.97]And people don't know when their blessing comes
[00:56.39]But I've watched you grow, baby, man, and you's a very intelligent man
[00:59.47]Man, I watched you when I would just sit down
[01:01.93]And you would just trick me out my money, shootin' dice, nigga, is you crazy? Hahahaha (Crazy, you crazy, man)
[01:06.67](G-O-D's my reality)Yo, man, you remember that shit, man?
[01:09.86]When we would be down there in the hills and shit, man?(I'm elevating strong I'm gonna go on to the highest degree)
[01:12.32]And you'd catch the— oh, here come Old Man Freed
[01:14.85]"Yeah, I'ma get him, ya little slick ass" (Hahahaha)
[01:17.95]Talk to me, baby, you know what I'm sayin'? (Hahaha)
[01:20.41]I remember all them things
[01:21.79]But I'm watchin' you growin' (Yeah)
[01:23.25]But remember one thing, Rae, like I used to tell you
[01:25.05]The child you was was making you the man you is today
[01:29.13]And if you don't know where you came from, baby
[01:31.20]You damn sure know— you don't know where you're goin'
[01:33.98]Can you see what I'm saying?(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead, oh)
[01:35.64]Know which way you traveling
[01:37.68]You understand? And follow that destiny and follow the light
[01:41.06]And it'll set you free(G-O-D's my reality)
[01:43.32]'Cause I've watched you, baby, you my main man (Yeah)
[01:47.53](I'm elevating strong and we're gonna go on to the highest degree)
[01:51.91][Verse: Raekwon]
[01:52.35]Now that could be the Wu-Tang production
[01:53.66]Start to knuckle up and gun shots start to click, the block's duckin'
[01:57.55]Could it be and would it be that we was babies?
[02:00.50]Catchin' rabies, niggas seem to act crazy
[02:03.68]Day one in my spot, July the tenth
[02:06.08]I had a mint, stickin' up Devines hittin' them with nines
[02:09.66]I was toxie from layin' up in Roxy's all night
[02:13.04]This nigga bust a shot, licked my man's wife
[02:15.82]It was havoc, I contact the Abbot
[02:17.95]He shook the shoulder though, then he passed the phat chrome automatic
[02:21.55]We goin' to war, you know he had a two-to-four
[02:24.67]He would've did it for me, **** it, let's mosie
[02:27.80]Scheming dough with the P.L.O. wrapped on tight
[02:31.26]Sayin' in my mic, "Yo, we gotta go"
[02:33.83]My first impression was to ask some lessons
[02:36.18]Question one, what made you even show your gun and blow the session?
[02:39.84]He replied and rocked the green eye
[02:42.12]And, yo, he started yellin', "Them niggas sellin' two for fives"
[02:45.85]But he's a goner and I got my corner, what?
[02:48.75]I'm feeding my babies, cash rules from morn' to dawning
[02:51.85][Outro: Popa Wu & Raekwon]
[02:53.99]Yeah, Rae, baby, check it out (Arm and Leg, Leg, Arm and Head)
[02:49.77]Feedin' my babies, cash rules from morn' to dawning
[02:55.08]Only God is the son of man(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead, oh)
[03:03.18]I'ma say this to you one time, and be certain that fake God does not exist(G-O-D's my reality)
[03:11.67](I'm elevating strong, we're gonna go on to the highest degree)
[03:19.06]This is why the universe, by the self-balancing scale of divine knowledge
[03:25.59]And it was measured by the portion of solid knowledge
[03:30.73]No man can judge for another(Arm and Leg, Leg, Arm and Head)
[03:34.21]But each man must weigh all facts and circumstances(We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)
[03:37.95]And find truth in his own judgment of righteousness
[03:42.37]See, the way to evil, balance equality in no man (Arm and Leg, Leg, Arm and Head)
[03:48.56](We've got the powers to resurrect the dead)
[03:49.89]For no man is good and bad at the same time
[03:52.21]Either he's good or he's bad

You know, God, I just been, you know what I'm sayin'?
