Out of Time Lyrics

[Verse 1: Akin]
As rhythm blasts from the Magnavox
I try to rap with thoughts close to home base facing opposite the darkness
Thinking got me hard, but it's mind erection
God bless the chosen few not totin' Glock 22's
Put lead to (?) rebel man singing blues
To who or what will listen
What is not fiction
I believe the star and the sea God got admission
If you into spiritual things, it's not organized
It's let yourself be, see me immortalized
The stuff from back then, we not just rapping
Yes we are, past present future was ours
I'm down to Earth but more importantly one with the stars
From afar, whether you praising Christ or Allah
There's a spirit in the air that I'm trying to be a part of
From afar, whether you praising Christ or Allah
There's a spirit in the air that I'm trying to be a part of

[Hook: Akin] (x2)
Let's get it together man, we running out of time
Let instinct dominate, overthrow your mind
See, we here to motivate people with the rhyme
There's 1/8 god, and my destiny still divine

[Verse 2: Akin]
I scribble thoughts down with hopes to get my point across
So many cultures lost, I preserved mine, with a firm mind
Clenched fist in the air like I'm ready for war
Some modern day Moors behind me as we knocked on your door
Cuz taking over steam, we letting spirits intervene
Between two extremes lies a king, now behold me
No longer scold me, I'm yours
Begging for more spiritual laws to govern my life and fight a cause
[Verse 3: Cise Star]
Behold, here come the litigants of the court
My heart is innocent, but my mind committed crimes so I reminisce
Over the evidence of my soul, my body relevant
Ready to take the stand,
and my lawyers ready for settlements
Council refused me, my predicament so confusing
I'm winning and losing at the same time, my mind lose me
It's going crazy making sense of all of this shit
Imagine gates of heaven standing ready for my final judgement
I stand alone solely responsible for my actions
I tried to live right, but needed practice

[Hook: Akin] (x2)
Let's get it together man, we running out of time
Let instinct dominate, overthrow your mind
See, we here to motivate people with the rhyme
There's 1/8 god, and my destiny still divine
