It was [N] written up in the diamond shard.
It
[Em] was written [Am] up in the [Em] diamond shard.
In [C] your body.
[Eb] But [Em] did you know the pen is stronger than the knife?
And [C] they can kill you once, but [Em] they can't kill you twice.
Did you know destruction of the flesh is not the end, into [C] life?
Fear not of [Em] the Antichrist.
Did you know that I exist before the earth?
And [C] did you know my [Em] eyes are windows to the world?
Did you know your cargo, [C]
[B] your [Em] body's just a vehicle transporting your soul?
[C] What's inside the vehicle is [Em] beauty to you.
Fear not of evil.
Every day them flesh is [C] grown.
Changes of the [Em] times take a toll.

[Em] I [C]

[Em] [Am]
[Em] wanna live.
Fear is in the eyes of the [C] older.
And love is in the [Em] presence of the love maker.
Life is in the words of the [C] comforter.
Enjoy much [Em] longer, live much longer.
Fear is in the eyes of the older, [C] and love is in the [Em] presence of the love maker.
Life is in the words of the [C] comforter, enjoy much [B] longer, live much [Em] longer.
You follow your infatuation [C] Stranger
Slashing every [B] man in an adventure
And [Em] never crucify as no [C] saviour
He let off [B] himself from all the rulers
A test of honesty and lust of power is his [Em] name
A gift of everlasting life for us to also [Bm] stay
Blessings that you owe to God
Blessings that you [Gb] owe to God
Lust of power, lust [Em] of human heart
Do you [N] remember Elijah?
And the Sharia that blames
Slim like that burnt chumbo face
Buried in the ice of his shoulders
And love was in the presence of the love-maker
Life is in the roots of the comforter
Enjoy much longer, live much longer
Buried in the ice of his shoulders
And love was in the [Ab] presence of the love-maker
Live much longer
[A] You follow your infatuation [N] Stranger
Slashing every man in an adventure
And he never crucify as no savior He look up [Em] himself him a the ruler
The brain it malfunction when dem a failure [C] So be careful of dem [Em] cellular [B] inflation
Cause [Em] as I see dem I see danger [C] So dem break out so [Em] I see I great failure Black dimension
[Am]
[B] [Em] [Am]
[Em] [C]
[Em] You think you wanna lick upon shots Upon a blood clots
And fill the block with bummer ass cops Cops me down top you know you watch me walks
And my black woman is getting raped across New York and
Before I met the brothers in Chonks and Imagine somebody said that's just a dead sin
See us we do the crime we do the time [C] Got that to restock free
So [Em] police me don't pop you for you pop me Cause if you hit me you got me you shot me

Watch a run hit the floor Tolem [C] come come no
